A gift wrapped in paper covered with Santas, reindeers and Christmas trees. A shiny red ribbon is tied around it with a card tucked underneath. The card says:

‘Merry Christmas Sienna! Man I’m so happy we met again and that you live here now. I still can’t get my head around it! Anyway, I noticed you never seemed to know a lot of popular songs or artists so I got a few of the best. I hope like them!

From Skyler!’

Sienna raced down the stairs, summoned to the front door by the arrival of a present with her name on it. She stumbled down the last few steps and then sprung to the front door, where her elderly landlady stood holding a package adorned with festive images and sealed with a bright red bow.

“Here you go, dear,” the lady said pleasantly and passed the gift over. She quietly plodded back to the sitting room. 

Sienna pulled the card out and skim read the message, noting it was from her wizard friend.

“Thank you Skyler,” she said and as she tore away the ribbon. The wrapping was clawed off too and revealed four square plastic containers, with an array of pictures on the front. The back seemed to list something. Sienna put the gifts down and reread the card properly. So it was some kind of music.

Sienna opened the first of the square plastic cases and found a flat round object seated inside. When nothing happened she realized it was not some sort of advanced music box. She frowned and pulled it out. Maybe… she tried pulling the disc out and holding it up to her ear, but the room remained silent. Technology moved so fast it was hard to remember what you were supposed to do to activate half of the gadgets everyone used. She looked at the silver surface again and this time noticed the hole in the middle. 

‘Ah hah!’ She exclaimed and plunged her finger through the centre. She waited patiently for a minute, but was again disappointed. She tried a different one to the same effect. Perhaps they were broken. Regardless, she appreciated the sentiment. It was nice to get a present on Christmas. She’d just have to let Skyler know there was an issue so they could exchange them.
