[ Unfortunately, Marina is not excluded from givingmas, and so she will find outside of her door a neatly wrapped package. Inside is a plush black velvet bag that is very witchy-themed. Also, if she notices, the top of the back there is two very subtle raised bumps, as if they were cat ears. The note is in Essek's script, 'Please accept this gift as a token of our friendship; you are alright-- I suppose.'
When two cats become friends, this is what happens. ]
[On the 24th Marina will find a box her name and a holiday card that reads,]
Merry Christmas! - Arrakis Faylare
[Inside are a small bag of chocolates and a personalized chess set!
Her chocolates are star shaped since she likes magic. They are made of dark chocolate and they are mildly spicy with a hint of coffee, since Marina likes coffee. (he stalked sleepr for ideas)
The border of her chess board has been carved and painted to look like pages of a book. The white squares of the board have been painted the same way as the border to further the illusion of an ancient tome of magic and arcane symbols have been painted on the black squares. The pieces are the carved white and black stone. Carved on the bottom of one of the black knights are Arrakis's initials, AF.]
[She'll find a small, wrapped package on her doorstep, shortly before the holidays. Inside is a flat piece of wood, intricately carved. It is an old Twi'lek prayer - though that's not really the right word. It is an incantation, a prayer, a fervent wish. Ancient, passed on for as long as anyone can remember. It is written in two columns, on either side of a representation of Kika'lekki, the Twi'lek mother goddess figure, who represents guidance, and providing.]
[The incantation is an exhortation to whomever might be listening to bring the recipient good days, free of trial and tribulation. Good fortune, free of suffering. Appropriate for Ryloth, really.]
Vex is actually open to suggestions. If you go into the bakery and describe what a breakfast burrito is comprised of [ Whatever that is, Essek has no clue ] I am sure that Vex would be more than happy to see if she can create something.
Depends on how good you are at wrapping a burrito and whether or not it's overfilled. But yeah. There's various kinds depending on what you want in it, but the general idea is potatoes, eggs, sausage, cheese. Those are the most important ones to me. But some places do vegan ones and I don't eat those.
[ Let's be real, Essek would absolutely eat the veggie ones ]
There are a few vegetables that I think may taste good in one; recently Blake has introduced me to something called avocado which I actually like quite a bit, and I have always been a fan of potatoes, eggs and even some mushrooms here or there.
That is it, I must convince Vex that it would be 'good for business'.

That is useful. Do they happen to make breakfast burritos or is this still something I'm missing?

Date: 2024-03-25 02:25 am (UTC)You definitely should convince him. I don't really make too much food on my own. But I can taste it and see if it's right.
[Free food is a totally acceptable reason.]

[ He had Loki and Puck also on board to assist so no one would be saddled with so much work that it would be super busy. ]
