Alright, gonna now drop a ton of updates on you guys, this is WAAAAYYYY overdue, and I'm sorry to keep my Santa in suspense, but here goes...
I received the third question via email a few weeks back, which I answered without anyone's help,
About a week or so later, Santa Frost came back with the results of these questions, his boss stated I was a mixture of chaos and law, that I strive to live my own way yet also struggle to hold to traditional ideals. Soon after, earlier this week, a package arrived. From where, I am not sure, but it's purpose soon became clear.
I opened the package. It felt as if I had no control over my hands as I tore open the box, that they were moving on their own. Inside I found a letter,
and four wrapped items, each one corresponding to a different arcana,
It seems each was a gift to help me strenghten different parts of myself. Perhaps the letter was meant to indicate clues to the contents of these presents. First, I opened the Fool,
And got a guidebook on Tarot cards! Interesting, I used to know someone who owned a pack and was into this kinda thing, might be cool to whip out at a party or something. Next, I opened up the Magician,
and inside was a pack of Tarot cards! I figured the book would lead to this, it's certainly very intriguing and I'll have to check this stuff out. Next, I opened up the Strength arcana,
Of course! The perfect test of ones strength! God Hand for the PS2! I could only find this game for ridiculous prices on Ebay, and now I finally have it! I'll need to dust off my PS2 and endure this trial at some point,
Finally, we come to the last arcana, the Empress. The letter suggested I need to bask in it's magnificence. But what could be so magnificent within the wrapping?
Turns out, it was something magnificent alright! the Persona 4 complete works published by Udon! I'm recently playing through P4G, and this was the perfect thing to compliment one of my most favorite games! So many little factoids and trivia among all the gorgeous artwork, it's just so amazing to look at! Did you know Teddie was supposed to be a girl, or that Dojima was supposed to have a buzzcut?
Here's the whole haul all together,
Best haunting by interdimensional beings ever! Special thanks to LoveIsUnity! ( I think that was the correct name on the package), your idea for this was so creative! I wish my gift to my Santee was half as good as this! I'm definitely gonna stare at this artbook a bunch more, as well as use all the other awesome stuff! I hope next years will be just as awesome

Santee, although your gifts are coming packaged in a 360 box, there is not a 360 inside.

@Kitsunekari - It was weird seeing your name on that parcel, as a good friend of mine that I was talking with when I saw it is named Stephanie Marin. Double take ahoy.
maximumzero, if you don't know, is the thread creator of a wonderful thread here in G&T called the "free to a good home" thread. Someone posts something they don't want anymore, and someone else claims it, it is sent to them free of charge. This is a handy thread, because a lot of times if I don't personally need or care for something and I think someone else would care for it more, I'd love to give it up, and this thread centralizes all that
I like sending things to people, and I think people here like sending things to others as well (obvious because this thread and Secret Santa even exists). I feel it kinda brings us closer together as an Internet community. I remember burdening poor @Speed Racer with my copy of Afrika that he really seemed to want (sorry Speed). @mxmarks seems to have found joy with his significant other that I just could not find in Rayman Origins. @Xenogears of Bore got himself a copy of FFXIII for PS3 along with the really nice strategy guide, which is pointless, because FFXIII plays itself.
So a couple months ago, I offered up two items in the Free thread: a used copy of Fallout: New Vegas and a new copy season one of Batman: The Animated Series, which @joshgotro and @maximumzero claimed, respectively. Sent them out and all was well. Except it wasn't. Their items never showed. I've used USPS a ton in the past and never had any problems sending things out, and when they offered me a tracking number I didn't even bother because they're pretty damn reliable, if not quite as speedy as something as UPS.
So anyways, I felt pretty awful about it, and the situation has now been rectified:
joshgotro and maximumzero should keep an eye on their mailboxes because I'm sending those items out this week, and this time I'll get tracking numbers and PM them to you both. Happy holidays! And sorry for the ridiculous wait that this has been.

Someone should probably get this man's avatar a monocle. Even if he does hate on Xenogears...

Wait, you didn't go out and buy me a new copy of BTAS did you?
She gave me some of my presents early in case I have to work on Christmas and don't get to see her, and there was a Wal-Mart gift card inside so I picked up BTAS while I was there
And I traded in some stuff at GameStop yesterday to get Xenoblade, A Boy and His Blob and some Wii points and had some left over so I grabbed a copy of New Vegas while I was at it
C'mon man, you started that thread. You deserve it!

My Uncle passed away this weekend so I'm heading home for the remaining week for the funeral and family stuff. If you sent anything my way can you let me know so I can make arrangments for it to be picked up?

My PS3 just hard froze. After pulling the power, getting scared by google telling me not to do that, I head on to the forum to find a message from Proxy.
Oh no.

Decorated the tree last night (pictures on my camera still) but I snapped a picture of this on my phone.
That's one of the many things I received from S. Korea from @spookymuffin!

I got another gift in the mail without a note. I know its a gift because I never ordered it. Santa did you get me GoT for PS3 with the art book? Make sure to include the quotes when you @Goose! and let me know, please
I'm starting to get somewhat worried. Sent present to santee a while ago...haven't heard anything from them yet. And it was international. I did keep my receipt and everything. Hrm.

That's racist!
The correct answer is equal mix chocolate and Tequila.
I must be thinking of Aztec hot chocolate. Pinch of cayenne brings out the delicious sweetness

You'll probably wanna wait till the last gift....
My Uncle passed away this weekend so I'm heading home for the remaining week for the funeral and family stuff. If you sent anything my way can you let me know so I can make arrangments for it to be picked up?
Not to detract from that at all, but our enormous (tiny) tree has been set up!
One year. One year....
For now I will have to settle for my homemade weeping angel tree topper, heh.
@Kyougu, Sorry for your loss. Just know that we are all here for you, ok?
Going back ten years or so my Grandmother went in to hospital on Xmas day, died on my birthday (28th) and had her funeral on new years eve.
To this day I think that was really selfish of her
That said, her funeral was awesome, the vicar looked like Leslie Nielson and I couldn't stop giggling. Didn't help he got her name wrong.
