[Left near the front door of her apartment is a little gift bag. Inside the bag is a fuzzy white scarf, and then there's a small box wrapped in bright turquoise paper. In the box is a little figure of a sandpiper, carved from bone, and a note.

['apparently this bird is a symbol of generosity, so it made me think of you. thanks for always cheering me up when i've had a lousy day.

[Kanaya has invaded the McGill-Brown residence with three white boxes. Two are small but the one for Ahiru is larger and a little flat, like the ones clothes come in.]

I know this is a bit much but... I saw it and thought of you.

[A red dress with pink tights because it's winter.]

At First I Was So Proud That I Wanted To Make A Big Announcement
Then

I Wasnt Quite So Sure

[quackery]

why not

[speakveryclearly]

Well
I Thought Of What Some People Say
About How They Think Time Travel Works
And What They Think Of The People Who Do It

[quackery]

well

i mean to be fair i can see why they'd be concerned since we did just accidentally erase a bunch of people from history because of something we did on a mission
