"Deserving love is a stupid concept"

Thank you so much for participating in this upcoming year's Red Crackle Firework's Party Exchange. As a reminder, the due date for the gift itself is June 13th. There will be two check-ins: the first is on April 13 and the second is on May 13

Check-ins aim to see where you are at and ensure that you are on track. How check-ins will work is you’ll get a message regarding the check-in; you have the option to share a sketch, an outline, or a two-sentence (at minimum) describing your progress. The main blog will announce before check-ins happen to remind everyone. In addition, reminders of the check-ins will be sent to your preferred communication method.  

Below is the information about the giftee you have been assigned:

Giftee: lemonjxr

If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know. You are also free to ask clarifying questions of your giftee on anon! Just sign as summer friend till the party starts ^^ [maybe don’t publish this ask quite yet and keep it as info]

This event could have not occurred without you, so we are extremely thankful that you have taken the time to join us. Thank you and will check in  again in April!

gray was carmen's first physical friend who was there with her all the time, she was at an important time of her life and he was an important part of it, who she genuinely got really close to and connected with so much so, she wanted him and only him to come to her side.

Carmen is the first friend gray made and came to care for when he had no intention of it whatsoever, further exemplified by the brainwashing arc.

I will make this a tag istg

Please send an ASAP to get an extension on the check in [you will have until saturday MAY 16]

Otherwise 

Remember this is the last time to report that maybe you can’t make it at all so that a pinch hitter can be alerted to make an emergency gift. After this if you require an  extension on the due date just let us know so your giftee isn’t worried, but a gift is still expected.

So: How’s it going? A couple of sentences will be fine to say what the progress is as well if you think you can make it in time for the due date

He knows that she was raised by VILE for nearly twenty years, brunt and her were very close, and yet he's the only one she asked to be on her side. Despite only knowing him for a year.

Knows that carmen did not forget about him after, and was keeping tabs on him considering she somehow knew he was in jail. (He would've figured this much out doesn't take a genius)

Asked him to come with her again at the Himalayas despite him telling her it wasn't him.

Clearly cares about him more than anybody else at VILE even after being brainwashed.

Gray: This is carmen.
