[ Wow, using this proposal as an excuse? Guess there wasn't any harm in it. He'll peak a grin at that before nodding his head. ]
"You cannot force her hand." Jill mentioned that once to you, and I think it best you take those words to heart.
[ They both know how fleeting the winds were. Best not to anger them with constant persistence. ]

[ Just as planned. ]
Well, all the Eikons are basically elemental, right? I could do an epic drawing of all of that. If I knew what all your Eikons looked like, I'd do a little family drawing.
[ But please don't change just to "pose" for a family picture. ]

[ And he's hooked. ]
Do you want just the Eikons, or your whole crew? I could do something separate for your whole Eikon family that you can put in your workshop.

[ She could sell a busted car to anyone. ]
You might be thinking too big. I was gonna go for something like... this size for the height of everyone.
[ Nimona holds up her hands to show off the size which is about the size of a piece of paper. So one person/Eikon wouldn't cover the whole wall of a ship. ]
But hey, if you need a wall spiced up in the Roost, I'm definitely the artist for the job.

[ A laugh. ]
If we do this on the ship too, I'm not sure you'd have enough wall space for your real sizes. It'd be epic if it was on the outer part of the hull - very intimidating to have a bunch of Eikons bearing down on those naughty crews.
[ Eikons are basically "mini" gods or whatever, right? ]
Yep, I'll be here. Just lemme know what you want to do.

[ A neatly wrapped package with Cid's name on it is left at his residence. There isn't any name to hint who it was from as if the sender didn't want to pressure him into feeling he needed to give a gift in return.
Inside is a nice tea set, complete with a vessel for cream and sugar and a very small, Moogle-sized teacup.Have a tea party with your Moogle child, Cid ]

[What a lovely tea set! He may be an avid coffee drinker now, but that doesn't mean he's abandoned his tea roots entirely.
However... It does take him a moment to puzzle out what this very tiny teacup is for before it dawns on him.
Eventually Sherlock will just receive a simple thank you text along with a message that if he so desired, he could join the rest of the "family" for tea time. Completely with a 😉 emoji.]

To Cidolfus,
Hello sir! It was quite difficult to find both you and your crew, despite your renown! Regardless, I hope that the season has treated you well and that you've found the time enjoy the holiday! It's not much, but please accept and enjoy this gift with your loved one!
Happy Holidays,
Santa Claus
[Inside of his Christmas present Cid will have two fancy, crystal wine glasses and a necklace with a silver chain and a golden heart, or half of a heart. There's a note that says 'Your half is with the one you care for the most. Enjoy!'
Also, he gets a wooden recreation of Enterprise II (the ship he has here, not Enty. Unless he also wants a model of Enty).]

[ In Cid's workshop there is a pile of gifts.
A fake long beard that has lightning bolt beads braided into it, a singing sacabampaspis (you know what you asked for, Lae), and a voucher for one Get Out of Jail free written in Nimona's handwriting. What does that even mean, Nimona? ]

[ Oh, Sherlock hadn't expected an invitation. He honestly doesn't get those that often. (Given his habits, he wouldn't be surprised if he was banned from drinking anything with caffeine it in.)
Well, given that he had gifted Kupli a beginner's chemistry set, it would be good to see how the Moogle has put it to use sometime.... ]

[She's really hamming up the beard thing—
BUT THIS SINGING SACABAMPASPIS??????
BESSSTTTT EEEEVVEEERRRRR oh the Roost is going to be tortured now. How long this beauty will last who knows but Cid is delighted.
...And he sees what you did there Nimona—
In any case, she'll be receiving a heartfelt thank you note.]

[Now this is not something he would have expected...and why does he have an inkling he knows who this "Santa Claus" is. Still, he will appreciate the "mysterious benefactor," especially when he'll later find that "other half" with Benedikta as expected.
That model of the Enterprise II will definitely be set on a shelf somewhere in his office at the Roost on proud display.]

[Inside a box wrapped in cream-colored paper, Cid will find a small collection of vials. He may find them familiar, especially if he remembers scents well: they are either for energy or for use against pain, the same as the very first concoctions of Alfyn's he ever tried. And there's a note!
We don't have a holiday like this one where I'm from, but I've heard you should give your friends gifts they can use. I might hate the thought that you'll get good use out of these, but I do think they'll help you with whatever comes next. You're a good fellow, and you do right by all of us, and I want to thank you for it. -Alfyn]

[ Hello it is one redhead making good on his promise to stop by. It took him a while, but honestly they're both busy men. It was probably for the better. ]
Yo, Cid. I got those diagrams ready for you. And I brought a little something for your lady friend, too.
You want me to drop them off at your shop, or are you good to have a guest?

I knew I was your favorite. Yep, on my way.
[ Luckily, Reno frequented Nogard and knew his way around, so finding his way there was of little consequence to the redhead when the locals could point him to the storefront.
Hopefully the workshop and storefront were the same thing! If not, he had more walking to do with a little bundled folder tucked under an arm. Should it be the right place and he's greeted by one scruffy old man, Reno would hold up the folder and wave it slowly. ]
I hope you're ready to get your socks knocked off.

[Fortunately for Reno, they are indeed the same so he only has one place to go. The door will be open for him to come through without issue (Cid's at least fixed the "automatic" door issue so it opens the moment Reno steps on the pressure plate right in front), and Cid will look up from his desk near the back.]
Ready as I will ever be. Let's see what marvels you have.
