Author's Note: This story is meant to have strike text in it, but this site doesn't allow it, so rather than strip out the gag I went for the closest imitation possible here and put a dash between each letter. This (and the other two letters) was originally written for the ppg-hub-drabble community on livejournal, and you can see it in its proper form if you head over that way if you want.

Hey, Santa,

Man, I canﾒt believe I let Billy talk me into doing this. If some chucklehead down at the post office cracked into this and is yukking it up over a member of the Gangreen Gang still believing in Santy Claus, youﾒd better just hope I never find out about it.

Anyways! Big Billy wants you to know itﾒs his first year being a good boy in a long time, so he hopes youﾒll get him something extra special, anﾒ he hopes you donﾒt mind heﾒs getting me to do this for him since he donﾒt write so good. I tried telling him ﾓBilly, like five million moms do this for their kids every freaking year before they get old enough to write him themselves. If the fat man in the red suitﾒs really up there heﾒs gotta be used to it,ﾔ but you try getting a new idea into Billyﾒs head.

He says heﾒs like a pair of sunglasses... a sunglass... whatever the -h-e-l-l- heck theyﾒd be called because nobody makes them for guys with one eye but he knows your elves can do anything. And heﾒd like a

You have got to be kidding me.

I canﾒt believe Iﾒm even writing this down. Big Billy would like a Powerpuff Girls Playset, the kind where the dolls have real punching action and hooks on their backs to attach to that spinning thing and make it look like theyﾒre flying. But donﾒt knock yourself out trying to fill that one, Santa. Seriously.

Oh, now thatﾒs more like it. Heﾒd also like the Powerpuff Girls Villainﾒs Playset featuring The Gangreen Gang with... realistic junkyard stink? What the -f-u- -h-e-l- frick? What I get my hands on those toy designers Iﾒll... do, uh, something totally legal that wonﾒt get the gang stuck back on the naughty list. Sue ﾑem for slander, or libel, or whatever the heck it is.

So thatﾒs Billyﾒs list, but, you know, if you wanna think about doing something for the rest of the boys theyﾒve all been trying real hard to turn things around after that whole Sedusa mess. And Iﾒm sure youﾒll forgive the couple of times theyﾒve screwed up since then Iﾒm sure you understand. I mean, youﾒre Santa Claus, youﾒre all about forgiving sins and all that kinda bull, right? So Grubber could seriously use some winter clothes, or at least some freaking boots to wear, and I bet all the guys would like some new games for around hideout, and Li'l Arturo... man, what am I telling you this junk for? Youﾒre Santa, I bet you can figure it out on your own.

Assuming youﾒre up there, and arenﾒt just Postmistress Doris laughing her head off over the stupid ex-villains still writing to Santa. But Iﾒm pretty sure I remember the Powerpuff Girls fighting you... or doing something anyway, ﾑcause fighting Santa seriously doesnﾒt sound like something theyﾒd get up to, a few years back, so Iﾒll just assume the real deal is getting this.

-A-c-e-

I mean,

Big Billy
