I wanted to remind everyone that there is a Christmas Challenge. You can submit thing anything before Christmas. The challenge is simple: create something Gatch and Christmas related! It can be a fic, a picture, a Photo-shopped screenshot (I'm looking at you Tim!) or anything else you can think of. I hope to see lots of entries! Crazynoel

You can do it, Amy! Just think of Ego in his chair before a roaring fireplace... a tree in the corner... presents underneath... but no one to share it with... Go! Poke

That's because nobody wants to get presents from Ego. Some birds just can not appreciate a good Mecha!

This is what I did last year for Christmas so I don't think it should count towards this Christmas Challenge but it might help get the ball rolling... Click on image for a larger version. I'm working on a newer card. It won't be as elaborate as this one but hopefully equally as festive. Crazynoel

Ummm, point. Ryu would have to nose dive for a present to hit him in the back of the head. Unless he was at the back of the GP command center.

Grin And now, back to our regularly scheduled programming... I like this one, Springie! Yeah, Jun's face is a little weird, but it's fun and the whole gang looks like they're enjoying themselves.

That's Granny Nambu's fruitcake from the fic..they've been saving it. They're giving it to Nambu because they've found the right vintage year and realized that it's the perfect clean burning nuclear fuel! The only way it's hazardous or has toxic effects is if you try to digest it!

My guess is that it's the head of 7-Zark-7 and the rest of him is on the other boxes. One can wish. Smile

I like that one Tim. Now who are they delivering it to. Katze? or Ego? Not Anderson, because he will only put Zark back together again.
