I see a reddit and I want it painted black

A color exchange, I want to receive black

I see the post go by, decked in their color pose

I have to scroll on by until my darkness shows

Ask my my favorite color and I say black. I wanted to see what someone would come up with for a color exchange with only the color and a small request of no more hats. I enjoy exchanges that are open ended to see the creativity that can come.

The first thing is how the gifts were wrapped, in colors. For this I knew I was in for a treat. The first one I opened was heavier than the package looked. It turned out to be a chainmail bag, and a surprise inside was a small chainmail keychain, both with black accents. UPDATE: My Santa said they made the chainmail, that is wicked awesome work.

The next item opened was a figure of a familiar professor that sadly the actor who portrayed him on film passed this year. Professor Severus Snape. It would not take much to see my like of said professor, but it fit the theme perfectly, his black cloak billowing. The figure was quickly added to the collection, with now a Snape on a Snape.

Finally the last thing was slightly limited power! As anyone who has a smart device (or a dumb one that needs power), you can always use a charge when you are out and about. So I got a black power bank. This is perfect it has two charge ports and I usually have a phone and tablet with me which will save me from being tethered to an outlet at times.

So overall this exchange was quite colorful, well quite monotone one could say, but every piece fit the theme perfectly, thank you.
