[The gift comes wrapped meticulously in paper that, while not strictly holiday-themed is nevertheless very appropriate, considering who it’s from. The gift is inside, nestled in pale blue tissue paper:

An assortment of candied fruit, nuts and chocolates from the faire, for those of his friends who actually eat. For those who don’t, this portion of the gift is replaced with a simple calendar.

A jar of tea courtesy of Sol & Scroll, because everyone needs more relaxing sleep around here. (He took off the label for you, Sanji, shhh).

For Sanji, the earrings he'd lent him during the drag show, and a tie.

The note, on thick, cream-colored card stock, is in a somewhat wobbly, but earnest hand:]

Sanji -

I miss her too. You have a knack for finding strange, uncomfortable, weird kids and making them feel safe. Like they have a family.

You did that for me. Whatever happens after this place, I'm always going to be grateful for that. Thank you.

I try not to spy, but if it helps: things aren't as bad as you think they are. Nobody who you've loved like that could ever hate you.

Merry Christmas
- Koby
