I think a romantic present for Bernadette might be a sword.  Maytag knows that being a knight has always been a dream of Bernadette. Bernadette seems to be a more practical character in terms of presents (eg, that she might appreciate a weapon more than a piece of jewelry)?  :)

perhaps a really nice set of sword sheaths to go with the swords that bluenymph suggested.

A magical chastity belt which Bern could put on May and only she would know the right phrase which could open it ^^
I know Bern hates magic but this would be rather practical 8)

Post by: Ssim2026 on December 14, 2009, 11:36:32 am
That would definitely seem like something Maytag would give, but I don't know how much Bern would like it... since she's not quite as wild, but maybe she would warm up to the idea? ;D

Anyway, if it's for the comic Bern, then I would say something with a sentimental message on or with it that says something like, "You'll always be my knight", or, "The knight of my heart." ;) If it's for the Bern in the intermission, then I would say something like a brick, or toss-able object, creating machine, and Bern could get Maytag a helmet. :P

Hi Maytag,

What about a simple picture of you two together smiling?

Happy Holidays.  :)

I totally second this. Like Ssim said, Bern isn't as "wild" as Maytag, so I would enjoy seeing what May would come up with for her.




...Alternatively, I think Bern would like extra comic pages to all Flipside readers from Maytag for Christmas. :D

Thinking along the toys route, how about an (uncursed) girdle of femininity/masculinity? It would let Bern spice things up a bit for Maytag while keeping things monogamous. Hard to know if Bern would appreciate it, but its kind of common for long term partners to give something they want for themselves as much or more than the person being gifted :P

A new sword because she likes swords.
Maybe it could also have an... ergonomically shaped handle.
Title: Re: XMAS Special: Vote Here!
Post by: Foof on December 14, 2009, 01:57:13 pm
What about a locket?  You could have someone do a painting of you two to put inside of it!  Unless there are magical cameras in Flipside.

Post by: farsan on December 14, 2009, 02:27:57 pm
A couple of sheaths, tailor made for the lone sword she received in Crest's hometown, for the time she completes the set. One of the sheaths would be jet black, and the other pearl white, both tied up in a nice belt with twirling yellow decorations. If Maytag believes Bern would accept it, the belt could be enchanted with some charms: Anti-theft, item storing, protection... anything useful.
Title: Re: XMAS Special: Vote Here!
Post by: Rowe on December 14, 2009, 02:47:28 pm
I'd say an object to signify your dedication to her. She doesn't seem like the jewelry type, so maybe a new scarf?

Or a proposal, perhaps? :)

What about herself all wrapped up in a bow? Or Maytag in a box?

I'd suggest more practical, less eyecandy gifts if what Maytag were to give her would actually end up in canon.

Why to complicate ut so much.

It would work rather similiar.

Incredibly sharp swords are the obvious and any toys would probably have to be magical for them to be really fun (especially if they graft on), so I am kinda stumped.

How about some Scar-Aid™. Makes a minor papercut look like a scar from a life threatening wound. Impress your friends! Get free drinks at the bar for telling the story!

Or how about giving them the option of bearing the other's child? For most couples that will bring them closer (though maybe not if they are both pregnant at the same time).

I was thinking that Maytag could make Bern a costume, but then I realized that Bern is confident enough in that way, but I DO think that whatever is given should be made by Maytag...it makes the gift more personal and sentimental   :P
Like maybe new gloves or a new scarf. I know! A scarf that makes you invisible  ;D ahah Anyways whatever Maytag gets Bern, I know that Bern will love, just because its from May.  :-*


Happy Holidays!! *mwuah!*

Post by: Nikhol on December 15, 2009, 08:35:09 am
Well, I personally think a new shiny sword would be too apparent. Plus, Bern's sword(s) are important. So, I believe that something simpler but personal would do the trick. Something Maytag would really enjoy "giving" and Bern "receiving". Well, that and the fact that it could turn into a humorous situation if done just right. What am I talking about? Well: Maytag could give Bern homemade "coupons". Lol. You know what I'm talking about. And they don't have to be in a sexual manner... though I doubt Maytag could resist the temptation.

I really doubt Bern would use a magical artifact like that herself, since it isn't a life-or-death situation like the other times. However, since she hasn't objected to Maytag's outright flippant use of magic I don't see her objecting to something like this.
Depending on where Bern falls on the sexuality matrix it's likely that she wouldn't be all that enthusiastic about sex with 'Mantag'; Maytag is certainly close enough to Bern to know how it would turn out, and I think she'd be careful to choose something that Bern would be able to fully enjoy.

Maybe a "+6 Ring of Bigby's Protruding Phallus" and "Mervin's Belt of Potent Manbits"?

---

If we step away from blatant sexuality, Maytag could get them a matched pair of wedding bands which have been enchanted to allow them to both sense each other's location and condition, as well as communicate at any distance. Aside from the obvious meaning of receiving a wedding band as a gift, they would be practical and useful enough that Bern would almost certainly accept it. That's not even counting how much it would work towards their "No more secrets" goal.

It would be pretty close to an ideal gift, I think.

Title: Re: XMAS Special: Vote Here!
Post by: Raxyl on December 15, 2009, 05:09:14 pm
Jewelry? Maybe something that jingles or tinks to match Maytag's bells. I'd love to read some cheesy line about how 'now I'll know when you're around, all I have to do is listen for blah blah blah, sound that matches my own' something so schmoofly the readers' heads will explode. :O
I'm also interested in seeing her with a new scarf ( Christmassy? ). Bern is totally my favorite character so she deserves the best! <3

Title: Re: XMAS Special: Vote Here!
Post by: orochiko on December 15, 2009, 11:43:16 pm
I believe that Bern would like something made by Maytag, those sort of gifts are the best kind, maybe secretly she would take up some sort of craft, example jewelry making, giving Bern a necklace or a bracelet that she hand made would make it infinitely better. Or maybe even a personalized show just for her! maybe some jester tricks, turning her daggers into flowers or maybe pulling some cards out of thin air, something sweet where they would both be together and Bern would see how much Maytag loved her.
Title: Re: XMAS Special: Vote Here!
Post by: fregorach on December 16, 2009, 01:51:30 am
Perhaps maytag could design a personal coat of arms for bern. As a symbol of knighthood and with symbols representing each of them.
She can still choose to give her jewelry, swords or sheaths with the coat printed on it.

Title: Re: XMAS Special: Vote Here!
Post by: charles on December 16, 2009, 08:28:04 pm
hmmmm, Well... With Maytag, it instantly opens up all the sexual gifts.

...BUT. We're talking about a gift FROM Bern to Maytag, so she's probably more likely to go for something non-sexual or only on the edge of sexual.

...A JOKE BOOK!  :P
Title: Re: XMAS Special: Vote Here!
Post by: Rhadan on December 16, 2009, 11:19:13 pm
Hi!

I've actually been thinking about it, and I think what Maytag should present to Bern is: A new scarf.

Maybe a scarf that's a little more sexy than the one she currently has. Or at least not as worn out and probably smelly as the old one ...

-

I don't think swords are a good idea because: a) expensive and b) they have to be special, which is even more expensive and c) Bern surely has a bonding with her current swords.

As for the toy idea: Maytag might put that under the tree, but it wouldn't be labelled as present to Bern. It would be labelled as "Present to Maytag? Pretty please, Bern, pretty please with sugar on top."

Slippers? Always good to have those.

-a really pretty bag/purse (as I remember Maytag keeping a variety of potions/sorcery-related objects)

Or a locket that opens up with photos of the two of them... Though would Bern submit to magical photography?  A painting or cameo then.

Crest could use a sword too. He's good at them. (Not great, but good enough.) Or maybe a D-bag. He has the "thief" skill set. The doll is not appropriate. Bern would "accidentally" break it. She was rather dismayed at the nude drawings that Suspira's BF was making of Maytag after all. Now that's a thought, nude drawings as art would not be a bad present. (Or at least topless.) Suspira can participate too if she wants. If they agree though, what would Crest give back in return? It would have to be something mighty impressive. (Except maybe for Maytag, she gives the world full permission to view her nude at any time.)

Wait a second... When did "Intermission Maytag" loose her arm?  I could have sworn she still had it in the first page... Now she's got a tonne of lights wrapped around the stump... Which I must admit, is awesome *lol*

You know... I actually like the idea of Crest getting a Journal.  Seriously, we could get a new section in the site for Crest's Journal entries, updated... when he emo-feels like it I guess.  Great way to tell more in the story, etc.

hmmm, I wonder if that locket will appear in the comic as a regular part of Maytag's appearance. *shrug* if it does then probably later, but I must admit that I loke the look, even on intermission Maytag.

I also like the journal thing... all Emo's require a journal/blog to keep their bad poetry or rants.

But I still say Rabid swarm of squirrels. It just seems something intermission may would give to someone. ^_^

I thought that Crest was about to get the best possible Christmas present, a chance for him and Suspiria to save the day for once, until this page (http://www.flipsidecomics.com/comic.php?i=887). Anything we can give him now can't be anything more than a consolation prize.

In the line of "terrible gifts"... how about they get him a sweater or some socks? He can get all excited... then *BAMF*. An itchy wool sweater with a mistletoe on it. Then he leaves without opening any other presents because of disappointment.

Little does he know that Suspi packaged herself as the other present to him... too bad. ;)

Crest should get a blowup doll.  :P

Or in more seriousnessaness, maybe he'd like new goggles. Orr a hat! Or a scarf.

Or some of Maytag's strength potions. lol

For my present idea for Crest: Chocolate Covered Cherries. You can never go wrong with those.

How about a pocket watch with a group photo of the group in it? Sort of like the locket, except it's a pocket watch, which makes it badass.

I agree that a kiss from Maytag and Bern would be a great gift :)

However, I'm betting he would be even happier if Maytag got him a date with Umber ;D

He can ask for a kiss from Maytag and cop a brick in the face from bern before he can receive *lol*

Umm, no he wouldn't. We've already established that he doesn't "plow other guys' fields" even with permission. Monogamy is a VERY strict discipline with him. He might not mind a date with Suspira though, or any other hot girl who is unattached.

Tch.  Crest should totally be given a hooker.  She would tie him up in Christmas lights and tinsel and rape him if he refuses to take her.

Gift Ideas for Crest

Sexual & Semi-sexual Gift Ideas
This one would also be a gift to Bern and May in a way.... A promise when Bern and May eventually decide to have kids, that they'll do this by including Crest in a threesome.

A Gift Certificate for a classy Geisha

One Day with a dominatrix (he really does seem the submissive type)

Set up a dating site profile for him.

Playboy Anthology

Non-sexual Gift Ideas

A Bicycle (I dunno why, but fits him somehow.)

A Pair of goggles (I think they'd look good on him)

Gone with the Wind (I think it'd be funny to see crest going around saying "Frankly my dear...")

An androgynous chicken by the name of Spikie who likes to peck out the eyes of potatoes and snowment everywhere. Great for a late night snack or as a defense against angry mobs of potatoes and snowmen. (Yes, it was random.)

A coupon for cybernetic enhancements (redeemable when technology gets that far.)

A book on how to pick up girls.

Some spending money.

Playboy Anthology (written articles only)

Did... did Brion just give us Catboy crest in two of those pictures?  I swear I see ears.

Is anyone else thinking that this is an actual character who'll show up later?  I'm thinking it might be Lana (http://www.flipsidecomics.com/comic.php?i=557).  Then again, this "Lana" would probably be dressed in much more eccentric clothing *shrug*

And of course Maytag has her arm back. This is intermission Maytag we're talking about, if she needs an arm to cover someone's eyes, then it's suddenly there at her convenience  ;D

I like this catboy crest view. That's really a good present for Crest.
And very probably also for the girl.

I know!  I mean, seriously, you can get some good pens out there, and if he's asking Suspira for one then he obviously doesn't have his own. ;P

Seriously though, great work Brion.

Practical gifts are the worst. Unless they are really special to the person.

That's why I said rabid squirrel pack, but no one listen's to me.  :(
