Leota Tang's Gift Advice

Leota Tang's Gift Advice

Buying gifts, especially when you have so many friends, is difficult! So why try to figure that all out yourself? This evening, Patrice is trucking his poor mom-in-a-crystal-ball-in-a-box out into the cafeteria so she can bestow some insight on his helpless classmates. Her presence can be a little shaky and her replies can be a little confusing, but she's willing to try hard for these sweet kids who have to endure provide love and companionship to her pain in the ass perfect son every day.

HOW THIS WORKS

• In case you missed it, Leota Tang, Patrice's mom, is very dead, but is also very much inhabiting her crystal ball. She loves kids and loves being helpful, but she can only communicate in images and she has limited contact with everyone (and the mortal plane in general). This leads to a lot of miscommunications and misinterpretations.
  
• Anyone is allowed to ask, but for my own sanity I'm limiting requests to two per character. If this ends up being less time consuming/there's less interest than I anticipate, I can bump this up.
  
• I'll respond to this forever, yolo, gift advice is the best.
  
• GIFT CLARITY: Responses will come in a few flavors - clear, middling, and unclear. What this will look like in practice is if Leota is suggesting a wand repair kit, a clear suggestion will show a wand repair kit, a middling suggestion will show a wand and then a few things like a cute kitchen cloth, oil, and spell-o tape, and an unclear suggestion will show and stick and then... who is that guy? Patrice informs you that it's his old pediatrician from New York City. Weird, mom.
  
• Please note that this are just recommendations and Leota is not going to send gifts for you! You have to do the legwork yourself.
  
• This is all very dumb but I hope it helps/sparks some creativity for you in the season of semi-forced giving.

This is HELLA dumb and also I'm a little busy tonight so I'll be slow, but I just wanted to bust out mom-in-a-box.

Re: 🔮OOC - QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, CONCERNS!

CUTE. I love this. THANK YOU RIN!! All of my characters need suggestions for what to get, good or bad.

Also when I saw this gif for a split second I thought it was the cast of Scooby Doo.

THIS IS AMAZING!

Viola's two favorite activities are 1) talking to ghosts and 2) speculating on her true feelings for her ?friends? and their respective feelings for her...

She's about to expose herself so hard
