DE: Someone very important gave this to me

[bjornwilde]

Lagged this morning, so one from the suggestion box; as presented by gavin62truck :

Does your pup keep anything that has deep sentimental value to them?

Comments

[street_sparrow]

Giovanni - no, but after the end of canon he may have some memento of his sister
Harry - all the photos he has of his late wife
Ichabod - his coat probably counts because he refuses to give it up and the only other real possession he has is Washington's bible. Later he will have a very ugly hand-made doll.
Roshaun - depending on the point in canon, the Sunstone or nothing in particular
Gavroche - somewhere he has a replica of Enjolras' red coat that Bar gave him when he was ten. It doesn't fit anymore but he still keeps it. Also the leather bracelet Alain gave him before he left, which he does wear.
Nancy - not a thing.
Norrington - no, only his memories
Jonathan - not particularly
Michael - says no because he still has all his most important people around him. Mouse might count, and he does have a ridiculous number of family photographs.

Alyx gave Gordon a crowbar for Christmas a few years ago. Gordon keeps that close to hand pretty much always, although to be honest that's more because it's a crowbar and he refuses to be caught weaponless- still, it came from her.

Shephard: no, not really. Everything he had that was of deep sentimental value was destroyed sometime between Black Mesa and now.

Ellen: Her father's Pip-Boy was recovered from the Enclave's stash of things they found at the Jefferson Memorial. It's got a few pictures on it of the two of them, so she keeps it- it's useful for other reasons but the pictures are sentimental value. Also there is the shocksword Jerald made for her. That's new.

Medic: Will never admit it but his guinea pig, Katyusha, counts.

Pentecost: Almost certainly something Mako made for a gift for him. And I'm dead sure he's got a picture of Tamsin Sevier, his co-pilot in Coyote Tango, that he keeps close to hand as well.

Santo: I don't think so, but I could be wrong. There's a lot of canon and something might be mentioned in there that'd work.

Edward Kenway: Not that I've seen.

Varric: His crossbow Bianca.

Does Santo's mask count?

[camwyn]

Nah. He has a lot of different masks, including the ones with specially shaped cutouts so he can eat in public in his mask and not look weird and the ones he wears under his standard mask during fights where he suspects something dirty is about to go down. And he replaces them when he's worn them long enough that the spandex is starting to give out.

In some ways most aspects of X's personality and preferences are the result of a deep sentimental attachment to a person or an incident involving one of her friends. This includes her sense of humor, her fondness for quesadillas, funnel cake, and garlic bread, and her fondness for cats. She keeps Liz's photo wall and camera, all the gifts from her first birthday party including the coat, the hat, and the gloves. The AVENGERS ASSEMBLE tag on her fish tank -- since all the fish are named after Avengers members, and Santo put that sign up there. Her cactus and the sign that labels it the Cactus With No Name. The ridiculous emerald necklace Bruce gave her. The decor of her aparmtent, and the fact that the name Laura Talbot is on her lease. The necklace Elle gave her. Any of the multiple gifts from Meg and Parker. She's a very sentimental person, on the whole.

Nynaeve keeps Lan's ring on a chain around her neck. It's important.

Raven keeps his coat. Always. It's a reminder.

Galadan has River's friendship bracelet on his wrist -- the green, gray, and pink one. The reason it has not fallen off in the centuries (his time) that have passed since then has absolutely nothing to do with any preservative actions he may have taken. Nope. >_>

Dean's got the necklace Sam gave him, and the Impala.

Sam Tyler, at this point in time, has absolutely nothing from his former life, but he gets to see people from his past, including his parents, so that's . . . like sentimental? If Gene ever stopped breaking his door down, Sam might have a sentimental attachment to his lock.

Michael: Not . . . really? She's not built that way.

Wonder Woman -- she holds her memories closer than she does actual things.

[no_more_hiding]

Hank has his books, whether fictional or not.

Jess is giving me a blank look. I don't know if this means she doesn't trust me with the knowledge or that she doesn't have anything. I'd venture to say favorite foods are her sentimental thing.

Andrea has her guns. And places. And memories.

Mulan has her armor which is akin to a portable ancestor shrine to her (my head canon).

Anton, I am not sure of. I'm inclined to say his music but it is most often used as a plot or prophetic device than any sort of sentimentality on Anton's part.

Brimstone has a wishbone he wears about his neck. It is more than it seems.

Quin has Aayla's (who was his padawan) lightsaber now. I'm half-convinced he also has one of Asajj Ventress', as well.

[damncompass]

Joshua has a copy of Time Machine that he reclaimed from his sister. It has notes on it from when he was a teenager. He would have the Compass if his sister would let him.

Helena has her lockets of Christina.

Mark is connected to his camera in ways that would create an Artifact in another 'verse.

Valentine, Peter, and Fantine aren't really that sentimental.

[vance_prime]

Alyx has only two physical objects left over from before the Black Mesa Incident: the necklace she always wears, which was made by her mother, and the old family photograph seen throughout the games. Those are her two most precious possessions.

[death_gone_mad]

The only thing canon has revealed so far that has any sentimental (and most likely real magical power like whoa) value to Amascut is the Kharid-ib, a large heart-shaped (actual anatomical heart, not ♥-shaped) diamond that is most likely connected to her father.

But it isn't in her possession until canon rolls around, and I am lagging behind canon by about 20 years for reasons.

In a way, the god-monster gorillas Ayuni, Leeuni, and Eruni, are sentimental possessions. But when canon rolls around, she loses them.

Everything else she breaks :(

[inlovewithwords]

Henry: depends on point in canon. The Book while he's got it.

Eriond: not really. He doesn't own things, and Horse is his friend, not a possession.

Lois: has a box of old things related to her mom stashed at the back of a closet, including a glass bird called Old Blue, a tape she's never watched, and an envelope for "On your wedding day," which reminds Lois to breathe and cherish every moment. Eventually she'll also have a silver heart on a chain handed down through the Kent family. She probably keeps knick-knacks in general.

Tavi: I have headcanon that he's got two small old toys of his little cousins', stolen from their room after they and their mom died in a plague. He honestly doesn't really have things. Tavi gets the Princeps' signet dagger at the end of Captain's, and then Sextus's after Third Calderon, but while they carry weight for him they're the Crown seals. If any of his grandmother's paintings got out of Alera Imperia before Sextus nuked it, Tavi definitely keeps those, especially the one of his father, and personally keeps any books from Sextus's study which survived (but again, as much business as sentiment, because Gaius and there is never just one reason).

[pullsneedles]

Lucas DOES have the Courage Badge his father left for him, but Flint didn't even bother to give it to him in person and the badge later became a key factor in Claus's suicide. He is going to consider throwing it away in the near future. What Lucas has that he considers sentimental are the lipsticks and razors the Magypsies left behind as their mementos.

Mia has Ghaleon's lute, which she learned how to play so that it could be both sentimental and practical. She also keeps a number of gorgon dolls, most of them made by friends who know how much she loves them.

Lohengrin has I guess Pfeifferkuchen? And his wedding things.

[last_kallig]

Kreyu, being a dragon, has her hoard. We suggest you don't try and take anything from it for the sake of not dying a horrible death.

Ibani doesn't have anything of sentimental value, at least not yet.

Annabelle has a closet full of weapons at Milliways, several of them were gifts from friends, so they have sentimental value.

[howdoyoufeel]

Peggy has a photo of pre-serum Steve that she keeps in a desk drawer. :) It's definitely something that she is very, very attached to.

[hey35andholding]

Clem: Games and toys from her youth - she's not very sentimental about it.

Dixie: Dolls, dresses and pewter cups from her various families.

Juliet: A pendant from her brother, Ewan.

Pinkie: All sorts of stuff, including many a fillyhood momento.

Eponine: A necklace that she's had since she was a baby.
