🎅 Secret Santa Party 🎅
Who: open to anyone who signed up
What: Secret Santa gift exchange! See OOC notes under the cut.
When: right after Christmas.
Ends: midnight Jan 2nd



Christine has thrown together a small party. It's chock full of drinks and deliciously unhealthy snack food. It's nothing fancy and not meant to be. Only a get together for a group of people that can use some holiday de-stressing!



OOC

  1. The party is being held on floor 39, in the common area above the housing floors. A quiet side-room, the library, is where presents are delivered.

  2. Start a thread when you're ready. At any time during the party (sober or not sober!), have them enter the room. An empty table is there. Have them say their name out loud to trigger the delivery spell.

  3. A present will pop through a portal onto the table, and a description or links of what's inside will be given.

  4. You can write a reaction if you want, either by squeeing in the room or running off to give hugs! It's meant to be a quick easy holiday thing and/or something you can mention later at the NYE party (if you suspect who it is from!).


  5. ❤️ you all! ~ G & Z


P.S. - Although mentioned in some deliveries, all gifts are secret! It isn't actually marked who it's from, only who it's going to. It's possible to guess who might have sent it. 🕵️‍♀️🎁

After finishing his drink, Tony walked in to the library, ready to give this whole Secret Santa thing a whirl. For a guy who could afford anything, he realized it was hard to get him a gift and yet, despite that, he was looking forward to it.

An empty table was set in the middle of the room. He guessed that's where the drop point was. He said his name and waited.

A portal opened and the present from Wanda landed onto the table with barely a sound.

When opened, Tony gets a handmade healing coffee mug with the purple stone and a huge bag of dark chocolate covered espresso beans.

Christine might have planned the event, but that didn't mean she knew the results. After all, Stephen had been volun-told to help out so all the secrets? His.

That included this magic portal spell thing that she had to simply trust would work. Although she'd seen people pop in and out, she hadn't known what to expect so fia lly, after a few too many egg nogs, she entered the room and curiously looked around.

"Christine?"

A present from Peter Parker lands on the table. Inside is a spa basket with a bunch of relaxation themed stuff, with a thank you card tucked in there for always patching everyone up!

Also in the gift basket is a tiny robot he made that looks something like this that he programmed to keep surfaces sterile and clean in med areas.

She was still running PR clean-up, finding new ways for Tony to dodge subpoenas and still play mom and supporting wife. Day. Night. Time of day became meaningless. She'd always worked odd hours, but this was to Tony levels now. She would be adamant about taking time off Christmas and Christmas Eve, but they were days away still.

The small desk lamp and the light of her computer monitor were the only illumination. The soft tick of her nails on the glass keyboard the only sound. Pepper promised herself that she'd go home after this report.

A very well crafted delivery spell honed in on a working mom who hadn't picked up the present from their Secret Santa (MJ) yet.

While she was typing, a small portal opened a few inches over her desk, and a present landed within reach. Once opened, this is inside!

A magic room? OH Peter was ALL over that!

He was drunk, as was his usual. He'd taken to sleeping at the Tower more and more, refusing to even go to the townhouse. Why did he need all that space when there was no one to share it with? He even missed Drax, which was a terrible thought and he wanted to immediately banish from his head.

so it was a very tipsy Peter who entered the room and went to the table portal thing ...

"Yo, magic table! Gimme my gift!" A pause. "Please."

He probably didn't wanna piss off the table.

Fury

Fury had no idea why he was even participating in the Secret Santa.

Was it that these people had somehow wormed themselves into the pathetic excuse of a heart he had? Or was it more that he was curious to see how horrible the gift would be?

More likely the latter than the former.

Still, a glass of scotch in one hand, he entered the gift room early on and tapped the table. "Nicholas Fury."

Loki
[info]the_trickster
2019-12-19 07:37 pm UTC (link)
He often lurked around the fringes of most parties containing Thor's friends, and this time was no different. Despite that, he remained surprisingly polite when speaking with others, and enjoyed the specially brewed potent drink the Man of Iron provided for visiting Asgardians.

No one noticed when Loki slipped into the library. He approached the table, sensing the magic involved.

"Rudimentary but effective." Loki sighed softly, before announcing himself. "Loki...."

His voice trailed off when he nearly said the 'of...' out of habit. The where part which followed was always going to be a logistical challenge. Instead, he left it unsaid and waited for a gift that he expected to say To Hel With Thee from a former foe.

Thor
[info]tordenguden
2019-12-19 08:12 pm UTC (link)
The fact that Loki was participating in Secret Santa was all that Thor needed to join in. In fact, he was thrilled to see his brother actually interacting with others, even if it was in his moody, Loki way.

The room was innocuous enough, and Thor entered it jubilant and happy, the way he approached almost anything in life.

"Magical table," he called out, "It is I. Thor. I humbly request my allotted gift."

Into the room Wanda went - or actually, she waddled there. Feeling very large and like one of those round Christmas tree ornaments - or perhaps like a Christmas turkey? She felt ready to pop at any rate.

It was also possible she would be distracted by the library - plus, she could feel the crackle and shimmer of magic in the air, some kind of spell. She wondered what Stephen had concocted.

Only one way to find out, so she said her name and toiled patiently.

T'Challa

A present delivery room, how intriguing. T'Challa was spending his first Christmas in the States, and so far this little get-together had been a good way to kick off those holiday feelings. It was his first Christmas entirely, actually, since Wakanda did not partake in such things at all - but he would see how it was done.

Holding a glass of eggnog that was halfway done (he sipped it slowly, as it was quite rich), he entered the room and followed instructions. Playing Secret Santa was fun too, and could only hope his present was well-received.

Talos
[info]shapeshifted
2019-12-19 08:57 pm UTC (link)
Yeah, yeah. Christmas whatever.

It was completely an Earth thing which was why Talos was participating at all - he was still living on Earth, so when in Rome, do as the Romans do? Something like that. Regardless, a part of him did enjoy giving gifts and making others happy - it was just a part he'd keep on lockdown and not mention, similar to how he kept all of Fury's secrets in a mental box that was tighter than the girdle of a preacher's wife at an all-you-can-eat pancake breakfast.

There he went, into the room. He said his name (in his own voice too, thanks).

Hope

2019-12-19 09:05 pm UTC (link)
This Christmas could be better, considering she was still missing Scott, and the family dynamic she had with him and Cassie and her own parents added into the mix. But it was what it was, and she'd already called Hank and Janet to wish them a happy everything, and maybe this new year would be...better.

Hope was really pulling for that.

Still, she was all about the gift exchange and thought it was a good idea - plus, with her and Christine's Costco finger food selections, how could you go wrong? She went into the designated room and said her name, wondering what would come down the magical chimney.

Jane's joking about not knowing anything about Secret Santa was really all in good fun. She was included and it couldn't be helped if the whole world was Christmasy. So maybe she did show up wearing what could only be described as an ugly Hannukah sweater and hold it down for the home team.

She tilted her head at the table. Pocket dimension. She had to figure that out. Take a particle and send it flying to the north power...

How long had she been standing here? Was the ice in her old fashioned this melted when she came in?

"Doctor Jane Foster."

Carol showed up wearing a hideous sweater and a big santa hat. All dressed up. She's hanging out and trying probably to do Christmas karaoke or something like that.

Eventually grabbing some cookies, she headed into the Secret Santa room.

Natasha was curious how Strange had set this up in the Tower. While having him on their side was nice and all, employing more magic in the field would be better. At a discreet point during the party, on the way to a drink refill, Natasha stepped into the room and wandered to the table.

She said her name and waited to see what dropped into view.

Sam was enjoying the low key gathering and almost forgot to stop by the library to pick up his Secret Santa gift. He'd had fun picking out something for his recipient.

When he finally popped in to the room, he looked around in confusion for a moment and then said his name, waiting for his present to appear.

It was still a little overwhelming for MJ to come to events like this though she was pleased to be included. The food was good and it was fun to watch Peter interact with all of his teammates.

She headed into the library to get her Secret Santa gift, a little confused by the whole set up. "MJ," she said.

Parties were always great and Darcy was looking forward to this one as much as she was looking forward to the New Year's Eve bash. In all honesty, a small, laid back gathering with her friends was a lot more her speed than getting all dressed up.

Excited to see what her gift was, she headed into the room and said her name, anxiously waiting for it to arrive.

It was nice having an excuse to relax and spend some time with everyone in a casual setting. At some point in the evening, Bruce remembered that he'd participated in the Secret Santa, so he went over to get his own gift.

"Bruce," he said, a bit apprehensive about the magical delivery system.

Sif would have been drunk if she'd been mortal, but it takes a lot of liquor to make an Asgardian drunk. She wandered into the library and looked round for a few moments. Regarding the blank table, she finally said, "I, Sif of Asgard, thank you in advance for this Yule gift, whoever you might be."

Rhodey had almost forgotten that he needed to go in and get his present. He was really hoping his recipient had liked what he'd got them, because he considered his recipient harder to shop for than Tony. Meanwhile he was pretty sure, once he remembered that he, too, was supposed to get a gift, he would love whatever it was.

"Colonel Rhodes reporting for gift pickup duty, please and thank you."

Peter was in the holiday spirit. Ending the year not as a framed fugitive was a success in his book, and no matter how much he constantly worried about the possibility coming to this reality, today wasn’t the time to dwell on it. He stepped into the designated Secret Santa room after MJ, intrigued by the process already.

"Hi! Happy holidays?" Because why not wish the magic express well. "It's Peter. Peter Parker." Just in case he was confused for Quill.
