Some wholesome Holiday HCs:
Iggy seems like the type to give people glitter bomb cards full of the really fine glitter that never goes away. He sends them out to everybody he knows, including Mario and Luigi.
Lemmy has a collection of the gaudiest, tackiest, most absurd ugly sweaters you can imagine. I’m talking lights, tinsel, googly eyes, everything. Also, 100% the best gift giver in the family.
Larry, Lemmy, and (secretly) Ludwig REALLY like the classic stop motion Christmas movies and have them on constantly for the entire month of December. It drives everyone else nuts.
Wendy always gifts people clothes, but like, really nice clothes, with everyone’s personal style in mind. She also really enjoys decorating. Definitely gets spoiled rotten with jewelry and bows every year.
Morton just enjoys spending time with everybody. Definitely a handmade gifts kind of guy. Also the feast is 100% his favorite part of the day.
Larry is constantly initiating snowball fights with EVERYBODY. Would drink hot chocolate by the gallon if given the opportunity. Winter is his favorite season. Always gets a new tennis racket every year.
Roy is the type of dude to just shrug whenever someone asks what he wants that year, so people just get him video games or cool weapons. His giant bill blaster was a present from Bowser one year.
Junior always gets the most gifts from Bowser. He’s the first one up in the morning, loudly pestering everyone else to come open gifts. Bowser ropes all the older kids into helping him play Santa the night before. He gets loads of toys and art supplies. Makes everybody (badly) hand drawn cards. Nobody has ever thrown them away, bowser has a drawer full of them.
Ludwig gives really thoughtful and expensive gifts, but only one per person. Typically gets instruments and clothes. Being the oldest, I’d imagine he does his best to mitigate the holiday chaos (and fails). Secretly swaps some of the stocking candy for fruit.
Bowser has an every growing collection of “worlds best dad” mugs and corny joke T-shirts. He doesn’t mind too much. Mario, Luigi, and Peach send him very formal cards every year out of sympathy.
Kamek can’t stand the chaos, and locks himself in his room to watch old movies until dinner time. Gives cards and small toys to all the kids, and usually receives new robes and spell books.
Also I think Peach would throw a big Holliday party every year, and it’s a Koopa family tradition to try crashing it. Their methods get more and more elaborate each time.
Morton loving the feast is the most relatable thing ever ngl
