A hypothetical cross between Krampus and the Grinch (Aster is Max)
[Private to the Admiral]
I object. I do not - I will not not be bribed into celebrating this. I've been making gifts for people anyway.

If I leave and return from home in the new year, may I be exempted?
Fine. Compel me. I do hate you, you know.
For Iris: a bottle of alcohol and illustrated instructions for the traditional dances of a world she’s never been to. That isn’t mine.
For Jean: music she has not heard before, that she would find soothing.
For Zane: a small chandelier made from pieces of glass from the lightning field on the planet where we crashed, to remind him that he can be a hero.
For Cassel: high quality clay, and tools, so that he can play with shapes and transformation without paying so dearly for it.
[There's some in the art room already, probably. But it's different, when it's yours.]
For Alex: A little fountain. Can you do that? Do that.
For Nathan: a stained glass window somewhere in his cabin. A rose window, or a nature scene, something...colorful.
For Vin: shoes to match her dress. Strong and soft and flexible and light. Good for dancing or fighting or sneaking.
For Riddick: a red lamp, or whatever frequency humans can see that messes with his night vision least, for mutual comfort when he has guests.
For Ned: a beginner's cross-stitch kit and patterns he would like. Not baking. Puppies and things.
For Ryan...actually, could you get him an actual puppy? One of the police breeds. And all the things he needs to raise and train it.
For Kelsier -
[Damnit. Why is this the hardest. He used to always get Kelsier useful things, or when they were very small, a sugary treat. But Kelsier has everything he needs and all the cakes he wants, and Marsh could get him anything from any universe.]
- one thing of Mother's that he remembers clearly, and one he doesn't.
Dean should have a token of his mother as well.
