Christmas gifts!
Sariel - still without a door, still far off the calendar of her own world and determined to observe this reality's own - leaves a number of parcels with Bar during the evening.
Captain Kirk's gift is a pound of good Caribbean coffee. Some presents work from year to year, especially when the giver knows about the technology of pre-replicator ship's stores in previous centuries.
Harding... Sariel isn't sure if he's been to the bar since last Christmas - if he has, she hasn't seen him - but that doesn't stop her transferring a modest sum to his name via Bar. It should be enough to zero out his tab, if he has one, and leave enough positive balance in its place for him to afford a meal or two.
She hasn't seen him in some time, but nevertheless, Doc Scurlock has a present waiting for him. It's a tin of chocolate chip oatmeal cookies festooned with a gold ribbon - the tin that is, not the cookies. It's a safe bet Sariel has yet to forget that day of desperate triage work they did together back when the local dimension was coming apart at the seams.
For Ellen, there are half a dozen orange fruits (they're evenly split between oranges and tangerines) and several fair-sized, vividly green avocados. Run a Geiger counter over these and the truth will out; nothing to worry about. Sariel's seen Ellen's world. This gift idea... likely sprang from that fact. No, Sariel's not aware of just how valuable non-irradiated fruit is on Ellen's earth.
Leela Sevateem has a tin of raisin almond cookies waiting for her. Looks like someone hasn't forgotten a certain successful mission she and Leela were involved in.
River's gift is green tea. Sariel asked Bar's input for this one; the result is a tin with a tasteful design of painted leaves on its surface and Mandarin characters on its label. Open the tin and--yes, it smells as pleasant as it looks. Hopefully the taste follows the trend, but that's up to River.
Turanga Leela also has a pound of Caribbean coffee waiting, though it's of a slightly darker roast than Kirk's. If the smell is anything to go by, it's of good quality; no cheap rubbish here.
Will's gift comes in two parts. The first and the larger is a tin of gingerbread cookies. The second, much smaller parcel is a cloth-wrapped handful of rosemary sprigs. (Cheers for a specific plant in the Milliways greenhouse, not that Will can have any idea where the herbs came from.) Chances are Sariel thought the savory might come in handy making supplies last that little bit longer over a Sherwood winter.
Yrael gets music, specifically twenty-fourth century renditions of two or three classical pieces; Bach is involved, as is Telemann. It's been reverse-recorded, thank you Bar, the better to be played on a CD player.
