“Hey uh, Narcissa?” Peter ran a hand through his hair and looked down at his feet once he neared the girl, feeling awfully nervous for having stopped her in the middle of the hallway. “Thanks for the chocolates and the quill. I -- I’m not sure of how much use I’ll get out of the quill, but I figure it’ll be -- I’ll stop talking now.”

One of Marlene’s many attempts at knitting. This was the third attempt at this particular item, as she wanted to get it right for Christmas. While a bit hole-y, the scarf is well intended and very warm. Marlene believes it’s the thought behind it that counts, and hopes that whoever is to receive it will appreciate the fact that it is at least snuggly, and heart felt.

We hope you enjoy your gift from Marlene. Please remember to thank her in person for it.

Caleb had never received a gift before, not once in his life. Small hands toyed with the homemade piece, curious about it but not wanting to give anyone even a hint of his appreciation for the piece. “This is hideous...”

Arriving back in the dorm would reveal something peculiar upon Regulus’s bed. There is a wrapped gift in center of his neatly folded blanket, with a small note attached to it. Here’s a copy of one of my favorite muggle records, Rumours by Fleetwood Mac. It’s pretty bitchin’ and I hope you enjoy. Oh and happy Christmas/Hannukah/Kwanzaa/etc. -Sirius Black

We hope you enjoy your gift from Sirius. Please remember to thank them in person the next time you see them. 

Regulus turned the record over in his hands, repeating the motion several times before glancing down towards the note. A sigh passed his lips as he read the signed name, a frown finding it’s place upon his already sullen face. The holidays were supposed to bring  l o v e,  not pain.

Arriving back in the dorm would reveal something peculiar upon Pandora’s bed. Three individually wrapped gifts can be found in the center of her blanket, neatly stacked on top of each other and held together by a gold ribbon. The first gift is a batch of snickerdoodle cookies in a festive tin (charmed to stay fresh and warm). The second is a copy of Winogrand’s Wondrous Water Plants and some daisy seeds. The third is a tiny evergreen sapling.

We hope you enjoy your gift! Please remember to thank Alice.

The gift warmed her heart, a smile quick to spread from ear to ear. She would be sure to thank Alice, as well as invite her to have tea along with the snickerdoodles.

Arriving back in the dorm would reveal something peculiar upon Alecto’s bed. A brown leather book that has small gold letters spelling out the word JOURNAL rests in the center of her blanket, revealed once the metallic gold wrapping paper is torn from it. It looks expensive and slightly old in a good way. There are many empty pages with an off white color and magic fused into them. The owner of this journal will be able to write whatever they would like without the world knowing, what they write is only for their eyes. A neatly written note can be found attached to the paper. Hopefully this helps you in the new year, best wishes and happy holidays –James Potter

Alecto took one look at the notebook and muttered ‘fuck’ under her breath. It was beautiful, and possibly exactly what she needed. But from Potter. Perhaps she should throw it out, or burn it in front of him. But then, sometimes she had to be a nice girl, smile that pretty plastic smile. And it would not do well for a prefect to turn down a gift from an exchange organized by the Heads of Houses. Fuck fuck fuck. She would keep it. And use it. And, because she was so good at playing the part, Alecto would even write him a thank you note.

Potter,

Thanks for the journal, happy holidays or whatever.

One of the best works of literature known to wizarding kind. It’s a classic that everyone who goes to school here should have read by now. Enjoy - Lucius Malfoy

             James glances at the book, raises his eyebrows and decides to give it at least a chance -- or maybe use it when he has problems sleeping.

Upon arriving in his room, Rabastan will discover a shoebox filled with springs, buttons, misc wires, and pens on his bed. There is no wrapping paper on it, but there is a note attached!

A mystical box of treasures! There are many different springs from my personal collection that I know you will love. The button and wires come from muggle electronics and you never know when they might come in handy! And pens that you may never have to dip a quill again! Be careful and use a pocket protector! Happy holidays friend! - Nelson Thompson

Rabastan muttered in disgust, quickly dumping the muggle contaminated items in the rubbish bin. Fuck you Nelson.

Arriving back in the dorm would reveal something peculiar upon Peter’s bed. There is a wrapped gift in center of his neatly folded blanket, with a small tag attached to it. From Narcissa Black. Tearing apart the paper reveals a quill and ink set and some chocolate. We hope you enjoy your gift from Narcissa. She believes it is elegant and useful. Please remember to thank her in person for it.
