Thank you Daisy for organising this!! ❤️ I can't wait to get into some festivites and actually feel a part of something; I've previously spent Christmases on EggCave watching everyone else have fun but being too shy to participate. Anywhosies... I'mma nab Saph's formatting, because I'd love to join Secret Songbird too!

daisycat • 29 November 2023 at 4:07 PM

The wish lists are looking great, thank you all for joining in! ^^

“I'd be thrilled with a custom profile code or creature profile designs”

What a good idea for a gift!! 🤩 Me, hoping I get Katie so that can be part of her gift cuz I LOVE making pages… then I realized, I don’t think I can participate and still have my own Secret Songbird be a mystery to me. :,) I’d love to get to join in, so currently trying to figure something out. Matcha said he could host instead but idk how that could work smoothly since Nest has already gotten some hints messages (assumption, haven’t logged in there yet) and I was going to deliver all the gifts and such. I don’t really wanna change things around and hassle everyone just so I can join, but it would be nice to get to participate. :/ Thoughts?

sapphire12 • 29 November 2023 at 4:32 PM

@daisycat Join please 🥺

I mean if you havent logged in to see the hint messages then you havent seen them.

nut • 29 November 2023 at 4:39 PM

yippee I would love to join!! and @daisycat you should be included!!

Likes
“old” eggcave art, having a lot of questionable takes, harassing people in the EC discord, anime girls

Creature Wishlist
my full wishlist is here, but most of those things are fairly hard to get. thus, I would love to receive one (1) creature from my secret songbird that they think is a really great creature, regardless of value. bonus points if you write something in the profile and yes I will keep it forever!!

Items Wishlist
huge fan of whatever vibe the following items evokes:
• Slime Sushi / Mini Shrimp / Weird Pasta
• Raspberry Chocolate Cake With a Strawberry
• Chocolate Covered Nut
• Vanilla Cream Cannoli
• Squishy Monster Toys
• Frog Book / All About Leaves / Candy Book
• Goblet Coffee / Orange Coffee in a Flower Cup
• etc. YOU KNOW, THAT VIBE.

Deepest Desires
💵 🪙 💵 🪙 💵
haha jk unless…?

kataclysm • 29 November 2023 at 4:50 PM

Girlie, you could open your own profile-code-whatever store and I'd be your number one customer. Your profiles, the thought you put into them, and the humour are what's driving me to aspire to do more with my own and to make them a treat to read!! @daisycat

provo7demons • 29 November 2023 at 7:43 PM

I would love to join! Thanks so much for the opportunity, I'm so excited!!

Likes:
- Cats and birds
- The color blue!
- Knitting, marching band, my radio show 😃

Creatures:
My full wishlist is here, and I'm always collecting Qargas! However, like others have said, I know that a lot of creatures on my wishlist are hard to get, and so I'd be absolutely happy to have any creature with something meaningful attached ❤️ I always love reading creature lore!

Items:
- Space themed travels
- Ocean themed travels
- Plushies!
- Haunted Abandoned Hospital

wizardsage • 29 November 2023 at 7:57 PM

Can I join secret songbird?
Link to my wishlist (in profile)
https://eggcave.com/@wizardsage
My one dream is to own a leaf of vaka and a tawny. But those are both very expensive so are not in any way expected. Feel free to gift anything I don't own! (or, alternately, fund my hoarding of texus)

Colors I like are blue greens. I like pretty much all the creatures but especially cute ones.

froot • 29 November 2023 at 9:19 PM

Likes
Cats, red pandas and foxes; the colours white, yellow and brown; B99; LoL and TFT; listening to music, writing, drawing; and strangely enough, eCoding on my creature profiles

Creatures
Total sucker for anything cat, especially if it's a cute cuddly one like a muffette.
My full wishlist can be found here, though I am aware that everything's really expensive so farlots and luminettes to add to my hoard would be equally appreciated!

Items
Always looking for more Pink Icy Forest and The Cosmos (Luminese Stage 4) travels for my farlots and luminettes!
Also on the lookout for a LoV ouo

Other
god i cant freaking wait til christmas

daisycat • 29 November 2023 at 10:04 PM

Thank you all for joining! 😊


❗Important Update❗ Matcha will be added to all of the "Secret Songbird | @yourusername" hints messages already received. Then Nest will leave each conversation. This way, the messages already received will get transferred to Matcha without each user having to send another separate message. After all of the messages have been transferred to Matcha and Nest has left them, then the Secret Songbird post will be edited to say: Message @matcha with your hints and send your gifts to @matcha. So all future messages, if you haven't sent yours yet, will go directly to Matcha only. c:

There were four (4) messages, so just be sure to send Matcha your hints before December 22nd. ^^


@kataclysm
You're so sweet, thank you!! I'm so glad you enjoy! :,) I look forward to reading anything you write! ❤️ I actually had a similar idea for a user profiles / layouts pet page, where I'd have different designs for user profiles and their respective codes below... for free, though I love this idea to sell them hehe. ;D I had a layout page on Neopets back in the day and it was also so neat to see people using them on their user lookups. However, we could have code boxes on there so it made it a ton easier. And of course, could have actual HTML and CSS coding and custom made graphics IN the layout codes, not just eCode.

opalquinze • 30 November 2023 at 8:06 AM

I would like to join secret songbird!! Thank you so much for hosting this event 😃

I have a pet wishlist on my profile but for a pet this year I am most dreaming of a Kitbee egg so I can freeze him at stage 2 😊

For a cave common pet, I think my favorite would be Yazan! I would most wish for one adopted on a special date, like Valentine's Day, or February 15 (my birthday), or December 25 (Christmas!)

For items, I'm not really interested in backgrounds. My favorite items would actually be toys! Any toys from the toy shop that are really cutesy looking or girly would be a huge love for me!

As for personal favorites, my favorite color is purple with pink and blue as runner ups. My favorite animals are lions and tigers! When it comes to dogs vs cats, I've always chosen dogs, but ever since I rescued a stray kitten and adopted her as my baby, I've come to adore cats so much that now I'll pick cat any day!

I also want to share some random personal facts so you can get to know me a little so it might feel less like giving a gift to a total stranger:
1. When I was 9, I saved a 2 year old from drowning in a swimming pool when nobody else was around.
2. I have autism but I'm very highly functioning. My autism provides me social challenges but also gives me epic bonus skills in random areas like attention to detail and strong problem solving abilities.
3. For my job, I work with kids who have (typically) more severe autism to teach them skills that will help them be more independent and successful in the world. I LOVE MY JOB SO MUCH!!!!!

Thanks for reading and I can't wait to get my secret songbird!!

matcha • 10 December 2023 at 10:53 AM

Everybody should have received a message with the Nestling they're gifting to as well as that Nestling's wishlist 😊

Happy gift shopping!

daisycat • 10 December 2023 at 11:28 AM

Tip: Gifts can be sent to Matcha from now until December 22nd, so, if Matcha happens to receive a creature gift for someone, that creature will be in his cove. So my tip is... try to avoid looking at Matcha's cove for the time being, just in case any surprises could be spoiled. ^^ If you're gifting a creature, you can also just send it to Matcha closer to the December 22nd deadline so it's in his cove for less time.

Shoutout to @ahgirltc! Just wanted to let you know that me and @matcha have laughed soo much at your entry and we say the last two lines all the time now!! It's like an inside joke with us now, we love it so much. It's just so great how it's like, Rudolph is coming onto the "stage" of the night sky and everyone is freakin' out over him. x) Idk how to explain it well but it's soo funny!

"Look at all of those twinkling little lights..."
"This fire looks very cozy on a cold winter night."
"These presents are absolutely beautiful. Looks like somebody was nice this year!"
"Behold! The Christmas evening sky."
"Make some noissssseeeee!"
"IT'S RUDOLPH!!!"

matcha • 14 December 2023 at 10:12 PM

@ahgirltc it's true lol it just feels like such a calming scene and then all of a sudden it's "Make some noissssseeeee!" "IT's RUDOLPH!!!!" 😂

Daisy read out loud and really emphasized the change in tone and I nearly died with laughter 😂
