"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.)

[She boobytraps his stocking. This is what you get, Damian. An elf on the shelf comes springing out of the thing as soon its jostled, but this elf on a shelf is a little bit different. It's holding a white flag.

Under the demented thing is a tall, thin box in white and wrapped with a purple bow. Inside is a picture taken from last year's Christmas Tree hunt in an unembellished silver frame. No note.]

It's not much, but...it's a family photo. Now that I have you and Mum here, I don't really need it. (Reply to this)

[There's a small mirror wrapped in paper so it's carefully hidden. Harry had gone through a lot of trouble to track down a two-way mirror, wanting Sirius to have the same gift he'd once given him. Attached is the following note.]

Sirius,

I wanted you to have this. I have the other mirror. Don't worry; it's magically safe. I made sure of that. You once gave me a similar gift, when we couldn't be together when you were my only family left. I'd like to get to know you better, if you are interested.

Love,
Harry

What do you get the man that has everything? Something else. It takes her a little while, but she finally makes a reservation here for 7 nights, non-transferable, non-refundable and tentatively scheduled for a week in February. And she guesses he'll take his private plane, and she takes extra care to make sure the pilot knows that there may be one person joining Mr. Wayne.

She tucks the reservation confirmation into an envelope. The reservation is under his name, but the occupants say two, if he looks.

She takes care to arrange for a driver, should he want one, but for a rented car as well. That reservation goes with the first.

In a separate envelope is a map of Imerovigli, with small notations made on it, usually a meal and then a day number along with a few other tourist attractions. Shockingly few for a week long trip, but maybe the point isn't to get him out of the hotel.

No note is given.]

	[She gets the same confirmation Bruce did in a pale cream envelope. And with hers comes a name and an address of a not-well-known forger but a very good one, the one she used for all her own fake IDs before she met the Bruce of this world, should she decide to take a commercial flight. If not, he can still make something decent enough to get her aboard a private plane. No note.] (Reply to this)

Just a little. For fun.] I promise to let you win our next Quidditch scrimmage. Happy Christmas, mate. Prongs (Reply to this)
