Morning of, in their room, Julius is handed a parcel containing two rather large fabricky items.

The first is a handsome fur cloak, form-fitting around the shoulders and buckles up across the chest and beneath an arm, matching a little the way mage armor fits. The fur is grey and the woolen lining is black, and there is a certain amount of Ferelden sensibility to it.

The second is a quilted housecoat, long enough to hit past the knee (maybe Julius should consider being less tall). Thick silky fabric, with wide folded back sleeves and a sash. It is of a deep forest green with some arboreal patterns stitched through sleeves and shoulders, with some soft fur lining for warmth.

Diplomacy division workplace proximity associates each get a solid wooden cube about 3" on each end, with six interesting squares of larger woodcut illustrations salvaged from damaged (or just terrible) books trimmed and pasted onto each side. They're a mostly-random assortment of naturalists' flora/fauna depictions, astronomic illustrations (such as Thedas manages to have), maps, and scenes from fiction. One side of Julius' is an illustration of dogs crossing a hilly landscape. Because Fereldan.

Delivered by an increasingly long-suffering Guilfoyle, in addition to a fine bottle of wine and a matched trio of elegant glasses, Julius receives a leather dog collar and leash, the latter of which splits into three separate leather strands each with an individual loop for a person to hold the end of.

I don't know if the logistics of this will work out, but I'd really like to see you all try. Happy Satinalia, Julius.

For also being in Diplomacy, Julius receives a few, scattered figs in his workroom mailbox. A wee note pinned underneath one says: Happy Satinalia!

[heirring]

An assortment of small, crumbly, and delicious cookies in a festively decorated wax paper wrapping. The scrap of a note accompanying them simply reads, 'Happy Satinalia! -Wysteria d.Foncé'

[portalling]

A small stack of papers delivered to Julius’ office, featuring some sorcerous runes painstakingly transcribed from memory in a shaky hand, then annotated in a random scribe’s handwriting re: the particular effects of each mandala. The accompanying note: For comparison. -S

Gifted in person and at the same time, Petrana's gifts for Julius and Marcus are identical, and indeed match something for herself: she opens a box containing three simple rings, each neat braid of paragon's luster, volcanic aurum and lazurite. While hers is only a braided band, the braids of Marcus and Julius's rings merge into a swirled signet, with their three overlapped first initials stamped into it.

Left outside their shared room, three paper-wrapped parcels in a wicker basket, initialed accordingly—

Each parcel contains a finely-made woolen garment meant for each of them in turn: A woolen cape for Petrana, fashioned out of light silvery gray fabric with fur-trim around the hood and a silver clasp at the throat. A woolen cloak for Julius out of a rich, deep gray, a silver cloak pin to fasten it at a shoulder. A woolen overcoat for Marcus out of deep navy blue, a series of silver fastenings down its front.

A carefully folded piece of parchment is tucked in with Petrana's:

I hope, after these have been tailored, that they'll be to your taste.

I'm very grateful for the three of you. Happy Satinalia.
