( it's eddie and venom in a giant ugly sweater!! )

Hey, so, uh, we were thinking about doing a Secret Santa thing, so... So, yeah, that's what this is.

Secret Santa is the thing where we put a whole buncha names into a hat, then everyone picks one, and then they gotta get a gift for that person. It's fun. Gets you thinking about other people and stuff.

BUT EDDIE! WHAT IF I DO NOT KNOW THE PERSON WHOSE NAME I HAVE RECEIVED?

Great question Venom, who totally wasn't put up to this. Uh... I dunno, that's just part of it. If you don't know them, this is a good time to get to know them.

AND IF WE DO NOT LIKE THEM?

What, no, that wasn't part of the script—

WE DO NOT CARE!
WE WON'T BE BUYING GIFTS FOR OUR ENEMIES!!
THEY GET LUMPS OF ASH!!!!


Ash?? Shhh, no. No ash. And we, like, barely have enemies here.

Listen.

Long story short, we want as many people on this thing as possible. So, like, let us know if you're up for it. And... let us know some gifts you might want. Doable gifts. Reasonable, affordable, doable gifts...

( OOC: Sign-ups for this will probably close in a week or two [maybe the 16th?], and then we'll just throw all the names of the people who signed up into a randomizer! )

[ the teen in the video is wearing huge black-rimmed glasses, eyes wide and super earnest, and he's wearing a flannel shirt that looks like it's seen better days. basically he looks like catnip for bullies.

he beams into the video, reaching up to push his glasses up on his nose. ]
This is a super cute idea! Especially for people who just got here, maybe, and don't really know anyone yet. You can sign me up. Do we have a monetary limit..? I know you said 'reasonable' and 'affordable', but those mean different things for different people.

[ for some, fifty or a hundred dollars isn't a big deal. for others, ten is a bit of a stretch. ]

[ he is very interested in how comfortable eddie and venom seem to be, especially since venom seems to be some sort of.. well, he doesn't really know. a little bit like the cat from jason's bar, maybe. is eddie venom's.. host..? ]

Oh! Um, sorry, I guess I should introduce myself before I jump into stuff, huh? [ ma kent would definitely give him a word or two about being courteous. ] I'm Jon, it's nice to meet both of you. And I guess it's been.. fine? [ his glasses are already sliding down his nose again. ] There are probably worse alternate dimensions to be dumped in, right?

[ .. he pushes his glasses back up. go ahead, venom, say it, it's fine. ]
