That´s what I mean, though. You have a positive outlook on it, so it´s a good thing for you, even if it might not be a good thing for them. It also means you might get a house pretty cheap if it´s haunted.

I think your outlook on my positive outlook is a pretty positive outlook of your own, honestly. And you have a pretty solid point. I don’t know that I’d actively seek out living in a haunted house, but if I found a dream home with its own little breakfast nook that just so happened to be haunted, I wouldn’t say no.

When I think of inanimate best friends, there’s a lot more pleasurable ideas that come to mind over your dolls, Shiloh!

Racehl Berry, ist thou mind lurking in the gutter? You’re right though, let me correct myself: *inanimate, non-battery operated best friend.

[acuppajeanne]

Arsonist dolls. That’s terrifying.

And you aren’t wrong, Shiloh. Alliteration does make my own heart pitter patter. I’m sure April will arrange another Secret Santa this year, and I’m considering participation. But I swear, if I end up with one of your death dolls I will have some kind of revenge.

I agree, but apparently the market for it is big enough that I was able to buy two online and qualify for free shipping.

Funnily enough, since pitter patter is an alliteration on its own. Way to make your own heart race, Rachel. No need to worry though; I’ve got a list of people who’ve explicitly asked to not get one of them, and I can add your name to that. Just remember there’s still time to change your mind if you’re looking for a new inanimate best friend.

heavenlystjames‌:

You know, I like how you turn everything into something positive. 

IS it a positive thing though? I know I would be down for a little army of baby ghosts living in my house, but I get the feeling some people would immediately put their house on the market if it were them.

[acuppajeanne]

sageleblanc‌:

Well, let’s put it this way. If you don’t give me one of the cursed dolls, our non-existent friendship will be over.

You’re so far the only person who’s actually wanted to be on that list, so if you play your cards right, you might end up with both of them.

No offense, but I really hope you don’t get my name for any secret santas! There is no way that I’ll be able to sleep with a haunted doll in my house. I saw Child’s Play, and that has got me scared for life.

At this rate, all of Acup is gonna be taken off the recipient list, and then I’ll be forced to give them to my siblings instead. Scout’s honor, if I get you for secret santa then I promise it’ll be doll-free. I get it though. My cousin made me watch It when I was little and I’m terrified of clowns to this day, so I can’t knock you for that.

djjeffries‌:

totally on purpose since you were talking all about black magic dolls and what not, and i don’t wanna have to cash in all my good points with my saint to keep me safe or call upon mama mary. 

Is it any kind of relief that there’s on like... a .00001% chance of them being haunted? The more likely chance is that they’re some old things people found while cleaning out their great aunt’s attics, and are now trying to make a buck by selling them to poor fools (me, I’m the fool).

[acuppajeanne]

heavenlystjames‌:

I´m pretty sure people would try and sell you a haunted patch of grass if they could. 

That could be so wholesome though. Imagine a lil’ ghost family setting up their home on the haunted patch of grass you have on your bedroom windowsill.

Oh, this sounds like so much fun? I definitely need a distraction from the seventy pages of reading I need to do before tomorrow.

Let ebay be your distraction, dear Marley. If you get more than seventy pages for your next reading though, you may have to start browsing Etsy, aka the big kahuna of online shopping distractions.

Can I please be put on the list of those *not* receiving one of those dolls this holiday season?  I’m already on edge enough when I’m in the apartment by myself, I don’t need a haunted doll making it worse.  I used to do a similar thing, though, but just with wikipedia articles.  It would always pull me down into some sort of rabbit hole and I’d emerge with some whole new topic of conversation that I could have with my friends or even my classroom, sometime.

Were the dolls cute, at least?  Even if creepy.

Isn’t half the fun of a gift when you don’t know what you’re getting? Sounds like less fun if you explicitly ask to not be on a list, but I’ll be nice. For all you know though, it could end up protecting you instead of haunting. I’ve done it with Wikipedia too! Some call it wasting time, I call it preparing for my inevitable trivia show win.

One of them was pretty cute. The other looked like it had been stuffed in an air duct for ten years, which... is fitting, let’s be real. I’d be haunted too if I looked like that.

How much money do you throw away every night?

I usually don’t impulse buy anything, which is key. The game really helps strengthen my self-control, but there are some goodies even I can’t resist. This is just a case in point.

[acuppajeanne]

theyearofthestar‌:

You mean until you’ve figured out whom you’re planning to hex?

And I have participated in the past when the holiday spirt has been extra compelling. Though I suppose I’ve always thought of such exchanges as simply more friend-based than a Christmas celebration in general.

That’s the beauty of it. Once they’re out of my hands, none of the hexing can be blamed on me. I do want to say, they should really consider some kind of rating scale, because I’ve no idea how haunted they actually are. Something like a range, from ‘can rattle your shelves’ to ‘might burn your house down if you’re disrespectful.’

That makes total sense. It always struck me as more of a spirit of giving type deal rather than something of the holly jolly variety. People just like to say ‘secret santa’ because alliterations are the highlight of our society.

brodieeweston‌:

Apparently. I didn’t think that was still part of the kid’s slang, but there we are.

Just goes to show that most girl-on-girl porn isn’t actually written with wlw in mind. Did you do a Google search for any Bicurious George highlights though? You know, to find your doppelganger. 

[acuppajeanne]

evielutionary‌:

For the record, while I do not strictly believe in ghosts or demonic possessions please don’t gift me one of those dolls if you happen to pick my name in any of those Secret Santa type events. Creepy dolls are very much not my thing. 

...I’m sorry, I fully respect wanting me to cross your name off the potential recipient list, but I can’t process that you said you don’t believe in ghosts.

[acuppajeanne]

djjeffries‌:

i think i might have done your game wrong bc i ended up just looking at sneakers for all my degrees. but also like calling dibs on not having you as a secret satan come december. i don’t need bad juju.

It’s all about finding the right start point. I gotta ask though, was secret satan a typo for Santa? Or was that on purpose?

[acuppajeanne]

theyearofthestar‌:

I’ve never been so happy to celebrate Hanukkah rather than a man in a red suit. Enjoy your dolls and nightmares, and perhaps lock up all sharp, impaling objects.

Oh, they’ll be safely kept in whatever sigil-covered packaging they come in until I figure out where their homes are. Have you never done a secret santa-esque swap, even in a secular sense?
