satinalia v: kate can't do math

[rowancrowned]

HAPPY SATINALIA 

how to play:

1. tag with a toplevel for your characters. (possibly include division + projects for ease of identifying coworkers!)
2. reply to other's tags with what your character got theirs for satinalia.
3. rake in those approval or disapproval points. we support both friend- and rival- mances.

NEW RULE THIS YEAR, NERDS:
Top levels with character names will be unscreened, but comment replies will be screened until reveals at 11:59pm EST on October 29th, 2020, like some sort of Christmas tree or whatever, in order to allow people in all timezones to best participate (and because some of y'all have lists??).

skull | cursed object

[skulltasm]

[ He did not get you anything ]

[rowancrowned]

An orange and a piece of maple candy, pressed into the shape of Riftwatch's sigil.

[wythersake]

A very jaunty cap, with a small spinning device affixed to the top.



It has been shoved on top of the jar as tightly as possible.

[muckspout]

It's a serving tray. A really shiny one. Left with a note:

You can either be carried around on this or use it as a mirror! Happy Satinalia! Love, Edgard

(It was stolen)

[cozen]

A lazy susan for wherever he's usually perched, with the explanation that it's meant to minimize any echo-y annoying scraping sounds for him if his jar needs to be turned.

[windyvoice]

You ever seen a skateboard, bud? Well, you have now!! Or at least a rough approximation of one made by a girl with no craft experience.

henry | gardener

[ho_hum]

[ y'all get socks and mixed nuts ]

[wythersake]

A shovel, handed to Henry in passing. Is it a gift? Was he just done holding it?? Why was he digging up part of the garden?? These questions and more never answered bye.

amos burton | ota.

[innerharbor]

[he's not getting anyone anything.]

[heirring]

A pomegranate with a yellow paper cuff around it. The cuff has been decorated with a few generally seasonal elements and has 'The Office of the Seneschal wishes you a happy First Satinalia. Warmest Regards!' written on it.

sonia barra | diplomacy

[vorbratta]

[keenly]

A hair comb made from shells that were clearly taken off the beach by the artisan.

I know it isn't fit for a highborn lady, but I think it will look beautiful in your hair even if you wear it only at home. The color made me think of you.

-Colin

miles vorkosigan | scouting

[forwardmomentum]

[pittance]

A book of highly inventive pornographic woodcuts, delivered by a very confused messenger. What? It says right here, it's for the black-haired dwarf lord -

Val de Foncé

[degenere]

[okayimin]

With very little fanfare: a small leather pouch, neatly packed with poultices, bandages, horse hair thread and a few needles.

Salvio Pizzicagnolo

[assistente]

[okayimin]

With very little fanfare: a small leather pouch, neatly packed with poultices, bandages, horse hair thread and a few needles.

Placed under the pouch is several volumes on Nevarran gardening and birds of the greater Ostwick region.

Darras Rivain

[staysail]

[sulahnan]

A few pre-rolled joints of elfroot, each with a different added smokable herb to enhance dream recollection or mood elevation or headache relief.

A jar of spicy candies, the flavors reminiscent of the Afsaana spice market.

A little gold bracelet engraved with a sun, two crescent moons, and stars. This one comes with a note:

A gift for your beautiful, mysterious wife.

Nikos Averesch

[exsecutus]

[sulahnan]

Weed and candies that taste like sweet wine.

Yevdokiya an Waslyna O Bearhold

[deceivingly]

[okayimin]

With very little fanfare: a small leather pouch, neatly packed with poultices, bandages, horse hair thread and a few needles.

Matthias

[inkindled]

[windyvoice]

She has made every attempt to make a sword staff. It's haphazard at best. She leaves it on his bed with a note CAUTION this is totally a prototype please don't try to fight with it laura will kick my ass if you slice your hands off

maud van klerk | diplomacy, seneschal's office

[radicans]

[heirring]

Left in her workspace in the Seneschal's office, a packet of cookies that are perhaps slightly prettier than they are delicious, and a blue hair ribbon that according to the signed note is far more suited to Maude than to herself. Also included in the note is a brief tangent to the tune of 'What is your opinion on astronomy? I have been thinking of taking an overnight trip outside of the city to do observations, and the idea of more charming company in addition to the usual is appealing.'

yseult | head of scouting

[hassaran]

[unshut]

A pair of well made chesnut colored leather gloves that are warm enough for the winter and thin enough to retain dexterity, and a pot of hand cream that smells faintly of vanilla.

The accompanying note says, 'There's a joke to be made about a soft touch, but you have my solemn oath that they're only a fine pair of gloves and an excellent salve. I find the winter wind in Kirkwall makes my cuticles crack. Cheers! —Fitcher'

nell voss | forces

[galvanising]

[sulahnan]

Punch-daggers that look amusingly phallic.

freddie durfort-lacapalette | research (i think)

[aventuriere]

hugo mercier | guest

[fripon]

fitz, research

[technologist]

[heorte]

Left in whichever part of the haunted house Fitz habitually lounges in:

A generously sized bottle of whiskey. Around the neck of the bottle is a goat figurine on a bit of twine. No note.

lukas, forces

[tensive]

caspar, scouting

[excipio]

[hassaran]

[ Only OOCly belated, ICly arriving exactly on time. ]

A leather wallet in a warm reddish-brown, containing a set of simple but sturdy lockpicks, of a size easily concealed about one's person. A small notecard within reads, in an elegantly precise hand, Happy Satinalia from the Scouting Division.
