[ At some point, 9S is going to get Lambert murmuring to him in passing, when he's sure they're clear of servants: ]

The Acquisitioner wants a map, too. Make sure he gets one.

[Good lord, you two, get a proper mailbox or something.]

[Not that... it would help in this case. The cardboard box to the side of the door is rather plain, with bright red marker on it declaring it for 9S. Within it will find some sizable stacks of paper, with a simple joker playing card resting atop them. A message is scrawled on it in fairly nice handwriting.]

I was going to get you cookies but I thought you would find this more interesting.

[Also he's not entirely sure 9S really needs to eat...?]

["This" turns out to be what could be understatedly called an essay on winter holidays and the like during his time and in his England. While it's by no means as... eloquently put together as one might expect from an academic (of which Joker is not), it's still extremely insightful. There's plenty of mention of how some of the holiday things are apparently rather recent (as he's heard from people older than him), or the differences between cities vs towns, or even class differences. In fact, he apparently has quite keen awareness of that last part, able to go into depth for both nobility and the poorest of the poor, plus the middle class. Just to lighten things up, he also throws in some carols and popular stories of the time.]

[All of it is written in that same nice and clear handwriting.]

[Lapis doesn't know too much about 9S, but she knows that he likes humans! And that he likes Earth!

And also that she gave all her credits to Peridot because she had no use for it. Which means 9S is the only one who Lapis doesn't know from home getting a meep morp.

It's a slightly inaccurate paper mache earth! It's even got a little string on it so he can hang it up somewhere, how thoughtful!

And there's a... Well, unfortunately messily scrawled note there. Lapis only vaguely recalls how to do human writing from Portland. Sorry.]

I know you like Earth a lot. Obviously it's not the real thing, but here.

[On B18, they will find a fancy looking gift box in his trailer with a note left on top. The handwriting is done in an over the top cursive that he might recognize as the Ringmaster's, written on aged papyrus with the ink seemingly made of shining gold.]

"9S-

To help you see a brighter future.

The Ringmaster❧"

[Her signature is so massive and florid that it fills up the rest of the paper. When they open the box, they'll find a special lens that will allow him to see concentrations of magical energy, much like heat vision except for, well... magic.]

[This package is actually left in his trailer mailbox. It contains a bottle of sunlight ambrosia and faerie ale.

And a note.]

9S,

It isn't recommended you drink it all at once. I assume if the drugs can affect you, alcohol can as well.

Regards,
Syrlya

[Not quite knowing where his cabin was, Reira waits until late in the holiday to leave something at 9S' mailbox...once she locates it at least. It seems to be a small bundle of cookies, along with a childishly painted card-the image seems to move slightly, and there's a note on the back.]

You like fish a lot, so I tried to think of a fish card...but you also like eating fish a lot, like cats do. So I decided you should have both, at the same time! These aren't real fish, but I'm learning to make these, so I think you'll like them.

Thank you for helping me at the Prince's stolen house. - Reira

[Cookies! ....She's tried Very hard to make them look like fish.]

[ Connie delivers a wrapped copy of "Seventh Silk," a romance between two merchants on the Silk Road in India.

It comes with a handwritten note from Connie: ]

Happy Holidays! I love books, and I hope you do too!

If you don't like this particular one, maybe you'll find one more to your liking in at the Book Swap!

[ Included is a crude drawing of the cabin layout with a star pointing to where the book swap is located. ]

[9S will find a package left on his doorstep, marked as being from Taako! His signature is huge and swirly, and it covers up most of the "to and from" label. 9S's designation is written in along its edge, in very small letters.

The package contains... a dress. (Either the second or the third on the top row; unless there's one there you like way more.) It's fitted for 9S's frame and height. Folded up in it, there's a note, written in Taako's fancy, cursive handwriting:

When you see this, give me a call on the radio. I'd love to actually see you in this, since I did spend all this monopoly money on it.

-- Taako]

[Left under 9S's door is a painted card. The card smells of pine needles, snow and a fireplace, and features Papyrus, waving enthusiastically ahead. Somehow there's boneprint snowflakes faintly falling against the pale background. Along the header and footer, the card reads:]

HAPPY GYFTMAS
(ON THE MOON)
FROM PAPYRUS!!!

[Inside, a personal message continues:]

HI... 9S? NINE-S?
PLEASE GET A MAILBOX AND LABEL IT SO I LEARN HOW TO SPELL YOUR NAME.
I MEAN, YOU COULD WRITE BACK AND TELL ME THAT WAY... BUT THAT WOULD ONLY TELL ME!
THE WORLD SHOULD GET TO KNOW!!
OR AT EVERYBODY WE WORK WITH.
NAMES ARE IMPORTANT PARTS OF WHO WE ARE... AND MAILBOXES ARE IMPORTANT FOR COMMUNICATING WITH EACH OTHER.
IF YOU'RE JUST DITHERING ON THE BEST MAILBOX DESIGN... I COULD GIVE SUGGESTIONS!
ANYTHING FROM PLAIN AND FUNCTIONAL, TO FUN AND PLAYFUL, WE'VE GOT IT.

[ There are Harbingers and Guardians and like so much mass chaos, but Cole's still finding time to do little acts of kindness.

Sitting on 9S's bed is a Roomba instruction manual. There's also various polaroid pictures of the Roomba: some where the Roomba's in action, some where the device is obviously in the middle of repair. Those repair shots are straight up taken from like, an electronics repair store, like they're over some rando's shoulder.

There's no sign of who left the photos and manual. ]
