Even though they can't read each other's mind Armand knows Marius well enough to recognize what he wants for Christmas.

🎄 Merry Christmas and special thanks to @wicked-felina & @i-want-my-iwtv​ for organizing the annual VC Secret Gift Exchange! I’m still getting acquainted with the fandom and as a first-timer I’m delighted to see the richness of the gifts people have shared for each other so I’m more than happy for participating in this lovely tradition. Thank you and warm wishes for the New Year 2022! ✨

Happy end of 2021 @sheepskeleton! We've sort of came full circle- a few years ago I commissioned you to do a vampire winter walk. This is my spin on an Armand and Marius bleak and snowless winter night. "You darkness" is by Rainer Maria Rilke and translated by yours truly. I don't know- I think it fits them. I hope you like it and that you had a great december so far and an even better 2022!

🎁Attn: Santas who are writing fics as their gifts!🎁

We’ll be reaching out to you privately, but in the meantime:

✒ We made an AO3 fic challenge for you to submit your fics. Once submitted, the work title will appear as “Mystery Work,” and will be automatically made public on 12/24/21.

🔕Do not assign your gift recipient, or they’ll be spoiled in terms of knowing their Santa in advance D: You can add that in after it’s been posted publicly. 

Let us know when you have submitted your fic, give us the link to it, the title, and the caption, so that we can make a crosspost on Tumblr for the queue!

[vcsecretgifts]

Thank you for delivering your gifts, @littletrouper, @sheepskeleton and @xxhellonursexx! Feel free to reblog/repost your delivery badge 🎁

🎁Checkins

Hey Santas,

Let me or @wicked-felina​ know if you’re in progress on your gift, or if you can’t finish it, so we can assign a backup Santa. No shame in that! We know real life comes first, we just want to make sure everyone who participates receives a gift.

Thank you! 🎁
