OOC: Pressies!
Dec. 21st, 2008 12:02 amLOL - got to thinking about it . . . besides Gaara, whom they've kinda lost touch with (I need to rectify that!), the boys' closest friends on the comm...are both gods! LOL Or deities of one sort or another, anyway.
And the boys have Christmas/holiday pressies for both of them. XDD
Jack Frost - a Native-American-style dreamcatcher . . . about eight inches across, wrapped in sapphire and white leather, with frosted glittery silver thread (in place of the traditional catgut) webbing, with an assortment of "holiday" specialty buttons worked into the pattern in place of the traditional beads and feathers: a snowman, a christmas tree, a pair of mittens, and several snowflakes, and small acrylic icicles dangle from leather thongs at the bottom in place of feathers, as well as a tiny udjat and o-mamori. (The boys discovered a nifty American craft store called Michael's - can ya tell? XD)
Horus - a Native-American-style charm pouch . . . also inspired by a Michael's craft Yugi bought and modified. It's large enough to hold a playing card and has: an Egyptian scarab protective amulet replica (for protection and courage), a red o-mamori or Japanese good luck charm (this one specifically for protection while traveling), a pair of mini maneki neko or Japanese lucky cats (for general good fortune), and a copy of the same purple Dark Magician Duel Monsters: TCG card that Yami and Yugi keep in their Deck . . . because something told Yami it was something he needed to do. The outside of the bag is (a bit crudely ^,^;;;) painted with Japanese kanji and Egyptian hieroglyphs. Why a charm pouch? Because Horus can have it on him no matter which form he's in, human or hawk. ^__^

Damn, I have no life. LOL
