Davina wanted to get her mother something beautiful and sentimental. So, she had fount the perfect locket at the island’s jewelry store. After having reached out to one of her old nannies, they had managed just days earlier to find a few pictures of her as a child, and so, she had cut the image to go into the necklace, hoping her mother would like it. 

“Mom, I hope you like your present. I know it is nothing much, but I love you! Also, when you have a day off, please let me know. I have a surprise!”

        Truthfully, it would be impossible to say that Xiwangmu wouldn’t love anything given to her by her own daughter, but in this case, it was also impossible to say which aspect of this gift she loved more--the locket or the photos of her daughter as a child.

         Needless to say, the very next day, staff at Asclepius complimented her new necklace while her office had several new framed photographs on prominent display.  As for the next day off, oh, she was all smiles and excitement about that!

Glaðligr Jól !

Finding gifts for people was never easy, especially the newly met ones. But Skadi had seen Vitas’ interest in books and knowledge, something that had not surprised her from a son of Odin.

The perfect gift from him came from her personal collection. A very old edition of the Eddas in Old Norse. In the parcel wrapped in a simple but elegant green paper, she had added a recent translation that she believed to be quite decent. A card was tied with the red ribbon.

‘ᛞᛖᚨᚱ ᚡᛁᛏᚨᛋ. ᚨ ᛚᛁᛏᛏᛚᛖ ᛈᚨᚱᛏ ᛟᚠ ᛟᚢᚱ ᚺᛟᛗᛖᛚᚨᚾᛞ ᚠᛟᚱ ᚤᛟᚢ… ᛁ ᚺᛟᛈᛖ ᛏᛟ ᛋᛟᛟᚾ ᛒᛖ ᚨᛒᛚᛖ ᛏᛖᚨᚲᚺ ᚤᛟᚢ ᛖᚡᛖᚱᚤᛏᚺᛁᚾᚷ ᚤᛟᚢ ᚹᚨᚾᛏ ᛏᛟ ᚴᚾᛟᚹ ᚨᛒᛟᚢᛏ ᚤᛟᚢᚱ ᚠᚨᛏᚺᛖᚱ ᚨᚾᛞ ᚨᛋᚷᚨᚱᛞ, ᚨᛋ ᚹᛖᛚᛚ ᚨᛋ ᛏᛖᚨᚲᚺ ᚤᛟᚢ ᛏᚺᛖ ᛚᚨᚾᚷᚢᚨᚷᛖ ᛟᚠ ᛟᚢᚱ ᛈᛖᛟᛈᛚᛖ. ᛁ ᚹᛁᛋᚺ ᚤᛟᚢ ᛏᚺᛖ ᚺᚨᛈᛈᛁᛖᛋᛏ ᚲᚺᚱᛁᛋᛏᛗᚨᛋ. ᛋᚴᚨᛞᛁ.’

He didn’t expect gifts--why should he?  He hadn’t received any for years.  But when he found one in his apartment mailbox, he was immediately skeptical.  The gifter remained a mystery at first, however, as even though Vitas could recognize the Futhark runes, it was not a language he had mastered yet, so he did not know what it said.

At first.

What Skadi hadn’t known was that the message would be the first half of her gift.  It had been small, of course, but Vitas loved puzzles, and finding a cypher so he could translate her message had been...a little fun, really.  But it also gave him more of a desire to learn it.

That desire only burned brighter upon discovering what he had been given.  And while it was certainly thoughtful of the goddess to provide him with a separate translation, what he really wanted to do was read the ancient text in its original state.  Her message seemed clearer now and, for the first time in a very long time, he actually felt...a little warmth in his chest.  To learn the language from her, as well as to learn about their home and...his father.  He would...like that, actually.  He would like that.  Fingertips very delicately, very tenderly traced the spine and antique cover, the edges of the thick paper...eventually, the book of Eddas found itself nestled upon the shelf in his living room and he settled into his comfortable chair to read the translation in silence.

christmas gift for vitas

unfortunately, xianjun still didn’t know where vitas lived but that didn’t deter the young man from finding ways to give vitas a christmas gift. so, on the morning of december 25th, vitas would find a clumsily gifted present on the library’s circulation desk, complete with a note that stated ’for vitas from xianjun. i hope you like the gift! if you’re not vitas, keep off!‘ 

inside the wrapping paper was a mug with an illusionary 3d print of a book case. inside the mug was an addition gift, which was a small black and silver charm of a raven that vitas could clip to his med bracelet. filling the mug’s remaining space was lots of mini chocolates and two packs of honey.

@xianjunmp​

The librarian at the circulation desk appeared both perplexed and amused upon discovering a gift for Vitas left on the counter, but promptly delivered it to the archives where he was more apt to be.  Upon returning from his latest foray deep into the archives, Vitas paused upon seeing a gift upon his desk that had most certainly not been there when he had ventured into the depths of aisles upon aisles of shelves.  A quick scan of the area revealed no one nearby nor any signs of life outside of him in that isolated space.  A few steps closer yet still keeping his distance, he read the note.

A brief crease of confusion flickered across his brow before his expression returned to its usual stoic state.  Aside from the obligatory bonuses and holiday cards given to him from his employers, Vitas had not received a single gift from anyone since Adelheid had passed away.  To say this was unexpected would be accurate.  After another moment of contemplation, he finally completed his approach.  Still wearing his white gloves--more so for safety than anything--the archivist carefully unwrapped the present to reveal the mug and its contents.  With the paper tossed into the nearby wastebasket, he set the mug upon his desk and stared at it for a moment, then finally removed his gloves and set them aside before carefully removing the chocolates and honey, arranging the former into a pyramid bookended by the honey to create a small diorama-esque scene.

Though he knew what the raven charm was for, he would not attach it to his med bracelet; no, while he may enjoy rubbing his fingers over the smooth and textured surface of the enamel bird, the added sensory of that slight pressure to his wrist for the rest of the time would not be pleasant.  Instead, the raven kept its home within the mug for now as the cup itself became his new focus, gently rattling about with soft clinks as he held the mug and examined it further, taking note of the fine details of the sculpted scene.

Fingertips gingerly grazed the textured surface of the books, the tactile sensation eliciting a distant and pensive look to his dark gaze--in these moments, as those fingers continued to delicately and repetitively stroke those tiny shelves of books over and over again in slow passes, his eyes did not appear cold or empty.  In those moments, he looked...

Serene.

Καλά Χριστούγεννα !

For her precious friend, Athena had chosen a delicate statue of the Three Graces to adorn the gardens of the Golden Palace. It came from her personal collection, preciously kept in the sanctuary of her of her dear Parthenon for centuries.

‘Αγαπητέ Xiwangmu, Τρεις Χάριτες για τις πιο χαριτωμένες θεές που ήρθα να συναντήσω. Ελπίζω η φιλία μας να συνεχίσει να μεγαλώνει. Καλά Χριστούγεννα ! Αθήνα.’

The soft and excited squeak that escaped Xiwangmu’s throat upon seeing the beautiful statues of the Three Graces delivered to her estate.  She had just the place for the lovely ladies, having them prominently displayed between the Waterfall Pavilion and Celestial tower at the western wall, easily viewed from both the aviary and when standing outside her private chambers.  A beautiful thank you card was sent expressing appreciation and adoration for her friend’s very thoughtful and beautiful gift along with an invitation for tea at her estate so that she may show off its placement.

Merry Christmas !

For Xiwangmu, Tsukiko had chosen two boxes of festive macarons, full of Christmas flavors. With it came a gift card for The Lion’s Den and another for Böljande. It wasn’t much but he hoped that she would appreciate all the same.

‘Dear Doctor Xi, thank you for your guidance and your friendship. I hope you’ll spend lovely Holidays, full of peace and love. Merry Christmas ! Tsukiko’

Upon receiving such a thoughtful gift from the delightful cardiac nurse, Xiwangmu could not help but smile so very brightly at such a festive treat!  Of course, he knew how much she had enjoyed the creative macarons he had brought for their tea together, and truly she would have been content with just that, but granting her gift cards to the Lion’s Den AND that exquisite jewelry store?  That was far more than she expected, though she certainly wouldn’t say no.  Of course, a thank you card was sent to Tsukiko written with beautifully elegant calligraphy expressing sincere gratitude for the gift and wishing him a very prosperous new year.
