Gifts
((OOC: If my character WOULD have given one of yours something, then just assume they did, even if they're not on the list. I only did the ones I could think of readily, as I'm lousy with gifts! Also Ron apologizes for not getting anyone anything, but it's hard to shop when one is Undesirable #3. There is no fancy links, because I am lazy and want to actually get caught up on tags.))
From Melinda
For Tom - New Quidditch armguards, with a note not to take it as permission to get hurt, and a fancy camera he's not supposed to tell their mum about, since it does muggle and wizarding pictures.
For Bastien - A batch of the sleeping draught she made him last time, and a handmade (not by her) blanket that's charmed to change colors and warmth with the weather, so it's lighter in the heat and warmer when it's cold.
For Jack - A signed, early edition of Wilde's "Poems", and a coffee table book on famous art photographs, that she says she thought Colin might like, but didn't want to presume by sending him anything.
For Sariah - A pair of riding boots, and a pretty silver and green saddle blanket for her winged horse.
For All her Professors - An assortment of Bobbin potions and a bottle of good mulled wine.
For Professor Slughorn - A small collection of very rare potions ingredients from the Bobbin stores.
From Cale
For Dove - A package from a wizarding travel agent with a few nights in a hotel and theater tickets and reservations at restaurants for two, with a note to take a friend and take some time off.
For John - A very expensive bottle of red wine, and another of white, with a note that said he hadn't been sure which John preferred.
From Lia
For Aidan - A comically giant whistle to use to boss the team around, and a leather jacket.
For Gideon - An intentionally, painfully horrible collection of cheesy music, as a joke, and a bottle of whatever his favorite booze is.
For Bozo - A copy of a book called "Controlling Women, and the Men Who Love Them, how to cut the cords," and enrollment in a matchmaking program. And a couple of her favorite photos of his over the years, nicely framed up for him.
From Justin
For Susan - A little potted fruit tree sapling that he got Sprout to help him charm small enough to sit on a bedside and give little miniature oranges, in the spring.
For Ernie - The Godfather movies collection, with a note that says so Ernie can learn to deal with Family, just in case. And a portable DVD player to play them on, when he's not in Hogwarts.
For Michael - A collection of Monty Python movies, and a portable DVD to play them on, when he's not in Hogwarts, and the first six books of the Discworld series, by Terry Pratchett, with a note that says he thought Mike might like them.
For Zach - New Quidditch pads, and tickets to the first Quidditch match, after the school year, for his favorite team.
For Harmony - A bunch of musicals on DVD, with a portable DVD player to play them on, and a note that he's not allowed to get anything from "Mary Poppins" stuck in Justin's head.
For Zoe - An enormous stuffed plush of the Dragon from "Pete's Dragon", and a hidden bottle of firewhiskey.
From Lee (Lee is now classified as an Undesirable, so can't really be out and about, hence a lot of hand made gifts of dubious value.)
For Fred & George - A handwritten gift card good for "One evening spent with delightful company." with "refreshment must be provided by redheaded recipients" in small print.
For Angie - A handwritten gift card good for "One additional evening of Lee-Loving", because she never redeemed it the first time he gave her that, and a half-finished bottle of Firewhiskey, which he took from the twins' cupboard.
For Jules - A hand-drawn bouquet of flowers, and a full bottle of wine, which he took from Alicia's cupboard. They are not very well drawn flowers, but he made an attempt.
For Katie - A handwritten gift card good for "One evening of charming company, who will probably do the dishes provided you don't tell the twins," and a bottle of whiskey which he took from Angelina's cupboard.
For Alicia - A handwritten gift card good for "Fifteen minutes in heaven, or one night spent doing bad karaoke in Angie's flat, whichever comes first", and a three-quarters-full bottle of wine, which he took from Ang, again.
For Gideon - A coupon reading "can be redeemed for one evening of time with someone who isn't impressed by how famous you are, and can provided much needed perspective."
For Addy - A handwritten gift card good for "One evening in, when you're not dancing, which we don't have to call a date."
For Ken - A coupon reading "one evening spent telling you all the things you never realize are going on, provided you feed me."
From Sirius
For Dylan - Every toy he ever looked sideways at, plus about fifty more.
For Remus - The collected works of Remus' favorite author, signed and in hardback because it's Christmas, and Remus isn't allowed to bitch about him spending money, and enough expensive chocolate to probably put Remus into some kidn of caffeine coma.
For Regulus - Good booze, a shockingly small tropical-themed thong for him to dress his cabana boy in, and a telly to keep him busy so he doesn't go out and do something stupid.
For Miles - Sirius put a stove into his flat for him, when he was away with Daphne. And got him a comically suggestive "shopgirl" sort of outfit because he's a jerk.
For Tonks - A couple of bottles of good booze, and a videocamera.
For Jimmy Peakes - An upscale model of the bike they talked about, and a book on restoration. (Sent to the school for him, since Sirius didn't know where he was.)
For Everyone Else he Likes - Booze, booze, and more booze.
For Rolf - A copy of two different fairy tale collections that have "Little Red Riding Hood" and such, one of which has a cover that looks a lot like the one Sirius told him not to use on his book, with a note that says "for research", and some booze.
For Narcissa - A tasteful, silver and emerald necklace with the Black family crest, obviously custom-made, but with no card save a note reading " - S"
From Alice
For Neville - She made his favorite cookies, which is the only thing Alice cooks without hazards, and she pretty much took him out to shop for anything he wanted the whole time he was home because ALICE IS SO BORED, and her baby is home!
For Frank - She got him a cuckoo clock for at home, too, so he has someone else to talk to.
For Caradoc - She sent him some of the cookies she made, and got him a mirror, so he can stare lovingly into his own eyes.
For Moody - A frilly pink dress, in case he goes through with the polyjuice thing at some point, a bottle of brandy, and some cigars.
For Lily - A certificate for dinner out for the two of them, a book of hilariously bad raunchy poetry, and a "sexy santa" costume for her to make James wear.
For John - A new watch that she might have charmed to make it so she could find him easily.
For Dean - Art supplies and a new easel.
