Did you read that right?? YES, YOU DID! Iām doing a giveaway for the first time!
This blog has been running for about 10-11 years now, and not only have I improved my writing in that time, Iāve also grown as a person. Even though Iām rarely consistently active here (I leave for months and then resurface for a few months, etc. etc.), all of you guys, my incredible followers, have continued to show me overwhelming support. There was a time I left this blog and thought Iād never be back, and when I dipped my toes back in, I was met with positivity and welcomed back with open arms. Had that not happened, I donāt think this blog would still be going.
So! As a huge show of thanks, I want to do something⦠a little interesting? A giveaway.
Oh, but what am I giving away?
⦠Well. You know how some people sell ācharacter boxesā, like a care package thatās given to you as if a chosen character has sent it to you, with snacks and goodies and a personalized letter? I want to make and give away some character boxes like that, because I think itās a fun idea, and given that this is a reader insert blog, I love that itās one of the ultimate ways to immerse yourself in a fictional relationship!
Okay, with all the mushy stuff out of the way, hereās whatās what as far as prizes and rules go.
1st PLACE: A big box from your chosen character, with 10 snacks, a medium-sized plushie, a personalized letter with a custom drawing, 5 assorted goodies, AND a 10-song playlist for the character
2nd PLACE: A medium box from your chosen character, with 5 snacks, a small plushie, a personalized letter with a custom drawing, 3 assorted goodies, AND a 5-song playlist for the character
3rd PLACE: A small box from your chosen character, with 3 snacks, a mini or keychain plushie, a personalized letter with a custom drawing, 2 assorted goodies, AND a 3-song playlist for the character
Snacks = small, individual snacks (like a single candy bar or a single-serve bag of chips, etc., things along that line)
Personalized letter and custom drawing will not be the character themself, but rather a drawing based on the characterās themes or aesthetic, and the letters will skew toward romantic and possibly a teeny bit sensual, but not NSFW!
Assorted goodies = could be things like lip balm/lipstick, sheet face masks, small candles, small toys, nail polish, little baubles, perhaps a gemstone or a piece of jewelry, dollar store junk, that sort of thing)
To enter the giveaway, YOU MUST:
Reblog this post! 1 reblog = 1 entry. Maximum of 2 entries, so you can reblog this post twice and get put in. Any reblogs after the first 2 WILL NOT result in an additional entry. Everyone gets to put their name in twice if you so choose, and ONLY twice.
Be an existing follower of mine as of 1/22/24! DO NOT FOLLOW JUST FOR THE GIVEAWAY. Iāll be checking who is actually following before I add your URL into the entries.
BE 18 YEARS OR OLDER! Non-negotiable; my apologies to any of my younger followers, but this is for my own comfort.
Live in the USA (international shipping is a killer; apologies to my followers outside the US, I still love you so so so much!!) AND be comfortable giving me your address if you win so that I can send your prize!
BE KIND. If I hear of you harassing someone else over this giveaway, you will be automatically disqualified. This blog is a drama free zone.
Iāll reblog this post every day for, letās say a week. On 1/30/24, I will put all the URLs of those who entered into a hat (or, well, I may use an online number generator instead, haha) and pick three winners! First pick is 1st place winner, second pick is 2nd place winner, third pick is 3rd place winner. After winners are chosen, I will IM them to inform them, and winners will have 72 hours (three days, I know life can be hectic) to claim their prize. If I donāt hear back from one of the winners within 72 hours, Iāll pick another one.
Winners will be asked to provide me with the Black Butler/Kuroshitsuji character they'd like their box to be from, their address, name (legal name for mailing purposes, and preferred name for the letter; it's fine if they're the same, I just don't want to accidentally out any trans peeps if legal and preferred names are different!), pronouns, any allergies or preferences for flavors/scents, preferences or dislikes for other goodies, and anything else I should know to make their prizes as personal and heartfelt as possible. When I will be able to send out the prizes, Iām not sure yet, but as soon as I do, Iāll let the winners know and offer the tracking number.
And, from the bottom of my heart and with the warmest gratitude I can possibly give⦠GAME ON! Reblog this to your heartās content (remember, only the first 2 reblogs count as entries into the giveaway) and good luck!
Oh, yes, and⦠I LOVE YOU ALL DEARLY!!! ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø
