"The stockings were hung by the chimney with care..."

Access to the lobby by all guests of Passages, Las Vegas or through a Door.
Presents to be delivered as received.
Anonymous gifts permitted.

[Tuesday morning, everyone is returned to their adult selves, and winter holiday stockings go up in the lobby of Passages. Alters may walk through their doors as themselves, if they have a gift in hand that they intend to place, but they cannot enter other doors or leave the hotel. The stockings will remain where they are, untouched by anyone but the deliverer, until December 29th, when the last batch of gifts is delivered.]

(Please identify recipient in the subject line of each thread within this post. Gifts may be left anonymously, or with character journals. Gifts may, also, be left erroneously in incorrect stockings. Reactions can be posted at any time.)

	[A truce, maybe a peace offering, maybe a way to say that things don't have to be weird. Two glass bottles of real root beer, not an artificial flavor in sight are left in his stocking. The note attached to them reads:] Merry Christmas. -Jack (Reply to this)

	[A hat. The attached note reads, in familiar messy handwriting:] Thank you for being a friend. (Reply to this)

	[The multi-panel mural is made entirely of metal, which has been worked and worked. The sheets are thin, weighing barely anything at all, though the length is long enough to run the span of a couch. She includes no note.] (Reply to this)

	[The watch is entirely welded in platinum. Even the gears are handmade. She includes her key to the house, in case he wants it, since he hasn't been by hardly at all.] (Reply to this)

[He can't quite figure out the stockings until he watches someone put something into one and then decides he doesn't like it all. His own has been left somewhere on the floor, the red bootie stripped off and the white fur is currently on his head to keep his ears warm. BUT, beneath her stocking he leaves an ornate white and black drinking horn, the rim lined with gold. Beside it is a large tankard of ale he brewed, still slightly frothy and cool after sitting outside in the snow for most of the afternoon.]

	[With the worst wrap-job a man can do and still get sticky-tape everywhere - a pair of headphones and a fifty dollar bill folded into the cheap Christmas card. It's just signed 'Russ'. ] (Reply to this)

	[With the wear-marks of having been bought secondhand but still good, a jacket wrapped up in so much sticky-tape it's hard to get into. The accompanying (awful) card just says 'Russ'] (Reply to this)

	Blake saltedand 2013-12-25 12:49 pm UTC (link)
	[We're on a theme here of atrocious wrap-jobs - but the book looks new. The card reads 'next time you try kicking someone's ass do it right'. The handwriting is distinctive, but it's not signed.] (Reply to this)

	Joey A saltedand 2013-12-25 12:51 pm UTC (link)
	The accompanying note to the present reads 'teach your fucking sister how to take care of the bike</a>. It's not signed - but who else? (Reply to this)

	[Wrapped with so much sticky tape it's practically tacky - the bottle doesn't have a card, but the tag attached reads 'get yourself drinking the right kind'. Unsigned] (Reply to this)

	[Hunting down a stocking takes time and the hotel helps a little. It's wrapped in newspaper, and scrawled on the paper cover is simply 'because you like old things'. The book is an antique.] (Reply to this)

	[A box of tissue-wrapped rosettes, dusted with delicate powdered sugar. He puts a little tag on it that has a reindeer, with the TO: and FROM: line appropriately filled out with only first names.] (Reply to this)

[A package of Peruvian darkness powder, which all his friends receive. He thinks that stuff is gold. A full package of various candies ordered from Honeydukes, and a silver cloak clasp. The tag attached to the clasp says that the silver whistles in the split second before an Unforgivable Curse hits the wearer. He hid a bunch of ice mice in with the sugar cubes to take the teeth by surprise. There's a proper tag with their names and all.]

	[A distant but present gift, a gilt-edged book on harmless kitchen curses--tongue-tying, making sweet things taste sour, turning hedges into shrubberies, etc. In the cover he writes, "Try a few on James. Merry Christmas. -Sirius."] (Reply to this)

	[A package of Peruvian darkness powder, which all his friends receive. He thinks that stuff is gold. Left below the stocking in an incredible amount of green sparkle paper is an enchanted chest about the size of a shoebox that secures the contents from all but the owner's hand. There's a proper tag with their names and all.] (Reply to this)

	[The keyring is custom, with a tiny, diamond-encrusted cat paw as decoration. On it are two keys, both hanging labels on green string: Marvel and Penthouse. No note required.] (Reply to this)
