So, here's the deal: I marked my plushies as unreceived because my awesome santa was still working on them, and said NO to a rematch. Meanwhile, I got shafted for reals on my print exchange and said I DID want a rematch. For some reason, reddit got confused and I ended up with two plushy santas.

At first I was wracked with plushy guilt, but since I haven't been rematched for art, I guess it's okay. I also signed up as a rematch myself to make sure no one was missing out because of me, and I pretty much went to town on their gift.

My amazing original santa MADE me two octopus plushies. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, since they messaged me asking my favorite color and I said "OCTOPUS and blue and purple I guess".

I especially love the smile on the big one. It's a real day-brightener. PLUS there was haribo in the box, which is an unexpected surprise!

Thanks so much for unknowingly contributing to the octopus garden that is now my bed.
