strawberryFlavoredCottoncandy's Things

I have gift ideas for everyone except for three people in my family. My uncle, grandma, and little sister. They're hard to shop for bc I have to consider their ages and their likes, and have to figure out what they already have and what they don't.

So I need help. I'll list the family member and what I know they like and a little abt their personalities, and you can just comment what you think that person would like. It doesn't need to be extravagant (pls, I'm lowk on a budget), but I also don't want it to be cheap (it's a pretty okay budget for christmas).


Uncle: a gamer guy. He likes gaming all night and talking with his friends online. I know he play games like cod, but idk what else. Idk what type of set up he has 'cause he always has his door closed. But ik he plays on his TV instead of computer. He likes gaming, food (but he's a picky eater), anime (he's a huge nerd and has a bunch of knowledge), and harry potter (especially Snape). I was thinking of a mini fridge, but it's lowk expensive

Grandma: she's a church lady. When she's not at church, she's in her room watching asian dramas. She's obsessed since I first showed her one like before covid. It's literally how she survived boredom lol. I decorated her room cherry blossom themed and she loved it. She gets cold easily. She likes asian dramas, sentimental things, sushi, church-related stuff, and peanuts (snoopy specifically). She's been wanting a rocking chair for forever, but the good quality ones are so expensive.

Little sister: she's the most difficult. She likes cute things. She has a bunch of keychains. Some from hello kitty, some that are random little critters with stars and strawberries attached. She likes cute clothes, too. She goes thrifting and always manages to find nice clothes, but never wears it unless we go somewhere she can show off her outfit. She has a canopy bed with ruffled white curtains and pink sheets. You can say she's the princess of the family. But she's not too spoiled. She likes anything she gets, really. And she's very crafty and creative. She likes cutesy stuff, skin care, being clean, she sometimes likes diy. But it can't just be smth regular like making jewlery, it has to be unique. She likes unique things. (Also, don't reccomend skincare products or anything related, she has a routine she likes to stick to.)

I'd very much appreciate any answers you give, ty

There was this one fanfic I read like a year ago, and I've been looking for it for FOREVER. I went through my history on the website, I tried going through my history on my phone, but I had gotten a new phone since then. I've tried going through my bookmarks, I've tried finding it from using the tags, but no luck. So, now I'm asking anyone who may have heard of it or have read it themselves to help me find it.

It's an mha fanfic (I know, don't throw tomatoes). I can't remember if it was platonic or romantic, but it was surrounding izuku and katsuki. It was a 'what if' fanfic ofc.

So the story goes, from what I remember, Izuku gave up on his dream to be a hero and stopped showing up to school. Katsuki (keep in mind, he was still a shitty asshole to Izuku, but he got worried after Izuku stopped showing up to school) goes over to his house and tries to see what was going on. When he knocked on the door, Inko answered and she was distraught bc she couldn't get Izuku to eat, take a shower, talk, etc. He asks if he could talk to Izuku, and she lets him in.

He goes into Izuku's room, and tries to talk to him, but Izuku never responds. So Katsuki gets kind of aggressive, and he picks Izuku up and throws him into the bath tub and demands he take a shower so he can stop worrying his mom. Izuku still doesn't talk. But Inko barges in, and upset, she tells Katsuki to come back another time. So he does, and he brings Izuku his school work (?) and tries to get Izuku talking again.

Idk how long this goes on for, or how it gets to this next part, but Katsuki tries really hard to convince Izuku not to give up on being a hero. He even tries to get him into vigilante work, saying he's be a good sidekick, partner (?) for Katsuki and they can work side by side. I think Katsuki was just talking out of his ass, saying anything to get Izuku up, but Izuku really thought about it. So the next time Katsuki come over, Izuku is out of bed and writing stuff down in his journal.

I can't remember exactly what happens after this, but skip towards the end of the fanfic, they have a huge fight, and they end up in like a sewer tunnel at night, in the rain and they confess their feelings (not romantic, more like what they have on their mind). And I can't remember anything after that.

I know it's a long shot, and this might have been deleted by the creator or my memory might be way off. But if anything you've read is even remotely similar, drop the fic name and the author, so I can check it out. I will take anything you can give me PLS

Anyone who says they like matcha is a fucking liar. I just tried it, I got it from starbucks 'cause I wanted to see it if it was good. Plot twist, it wasn't. I literally felt so betrayed bc all I see on tiktok is matcha this, matcha that, and performative contests where matcha and feminist literature books are a must have if you even wanna be top 10.

But oh. My. God. It tastes worse than dog shit. It tastes like grass blended with everything wrong with this world. If you have ever wanted to try it, and haven't, DO NOT even give it a chance. It's a waste of money. I wish I was the person I was 5 minutes ago, before I even got a sip of it.

Also, why are popular food on tiktok even popular? First, I tried buldalk ramen. It sucked, I'll stick with my maruchan ramen. Then, I tried Dave's hot chicken. Way too much seasoning, and it tasted weird. Now, it's this. I'm never trusting tiktok again bru

Super late, I know I KNOW, but I'm starting on the Magnus Archives. Watching on youtube while I have the transcripts pulled up in the background to follow along. I'm on episode 4 "Page Turner" right now, about to go to episode 5.

But I just wanted to share something about episode 3, "Across the street". If you need a refresher, it's this girl Amy narrating a case where this man, Graham, who lives across from her goes missing. Long story short, they take the same night classes at a college. They don't talk much to be called friends, so more of acquaintances. One day, Amy catches Graham on the bus as she's heading home, and goes up to him, noticing that he was acting strange like he was paranoid. They get off at the same stop, and something pushes her into the street causing her to have a concussion.

Graham takes her home and she eventually leaves after she feels pulled into this weird table he had. After that, as a self proclaimed "people watcher", she watches Graham after she notices that he lives across from her. After watching him for idk how long, she notices his very strange behavior such as organizing and reorganizing his journals that she sees him constantly writing in and eating paper from said journals.

One night, after she stopped watching Graham for some time as she got busy with work, she watches for a few minutes and sees a figure pulling itself into his window. She calls the police, claiming home invasion. But as she watches the interaction between Graham and the police, she notices that Graham looks very different, most noticeably his hair changes from a dark color to blonde. After the police leave, not-Graham stares at her from his window and smiles. The next few days, Amy sees not-Graham throws away all his notebooks, and later she moves because the staring becomes an every night thing.

What spooked me out was that that Jonathan guy (that's his name right?) says that a notebook was recovered and all it had in it was "Keep watching" written over and over. I was completely speechless. So, did Graham know that Amy was watching him the whole time? Was he hoping that she would save him? If so, that's so sad that she wasn't able to help him. And what was up with that table? And the not-Graham, is that going to be showing up later? Or explained later?

Share an joke or quote from your favorite type of media (anime, tv show, movie, book, manga, etc.) that only the fandom would understand and see if anyone can guess it.

I'll go first:
