......WHAT THE HECK???

You over-achieved! For real omg!

Some of those familiars I've actually never even seen before! And WOW all those eggs?!

Then you helped Hyenn finish his outfit; and now he's a Guardian!

You also finished the outfits of Patchouli, Skye, Medarda (and thanks to you she's an Obelisk now!), and Moltara:

And you gave me the breed scrolls needed for Tourmaline and Hero!

And the gene scrolls needed for Topaz (who has been waiting for Iridescent for over a decade!), Winslow (Toxin), Seaspray (Leopard), Treant (Chrysocolla), and Kodama (Chrysocolla) even tho she's wearing a skin lol:

I literally am SO BLOWN AWAY by your generosity and kindness!

[center]@foul Thank you so much for all the amazing gifts, you really went above and beyond and I'm extremely grateful for your generosity!

This is [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/93389260]Wei[/url], the mentor figure to my custom progen, and I'm loving how you depicted her! The egg I am saving to hatch one my birthday, the skins are waiting for their dragons, and the Renaming scroll will help when I grab someone off the AH!

I... I really don't even know what to say. Let me stat, at the very least, with saying THANK YOU! I was absolutely gobsmacked to see my presents, and immediately ran and pulled my partner from his office to show him what I'd gotten (he humours me, thankfully). I don't even KNOW what to do with some of the gifts! I'm reeling! I rarely ever develop dragon lore, but in an instant you gave him backstory and turned him into The Flower Ronin, and I absolutely adore that (and might have to do some doodles now!)!!! I'm over the moon, and I really don't know how else to say it <3 <3 <3 Thank you thank you thank you! I hope you have a wonderful Winter Holiday and an even better New Year!!
