visible_sarielCaptain Kirk, Will Scarlett, Turanga Leela and Scurlock each get a pound of good Caribbean coffee. It beats what comes out of a replicator or ship's stores, and chances are it does the same to anything found on the frontier or in Sherwood, no offense to the cooks and brewers in either location.
Charles Xavier, Ellen Park, River Tam and Demeter all get tins of looseleaf tea. Sariel had to make educated guesses at a couple preferences, but she tried. River's is lavender, Ellen's is ginger, and Demeter's is camomile. Charles's, unsurprisingly, is Earl Gray. Sariel might have chuckled a little at that one, though it had nothing to do with Charles himself. That particular tea has associations for Enterprise crew, you see.
Dale Harding's gift isn't tangible, but it is visible. If there's a figure representing money owed next to his name on the tab board, it's been zeroed out the next time he looks, and credit enough for two or three decent meals has appeared in its place. Sariel would rather be sure her friends don't starve.
Leela Sevateem and Noriko Ashida both get a dozen cookies, made with ginger, cinnamon and orange. Sariel didn't make these, but she trusts the baker. From the smell of them, there hasn't been anything artificial added here; all the spices involved are entirely real.
Yrael gets a recording, translated to a format that will work on a music player that didn't come from the twenty-fourth century - Sariel's pretty sure she's seen the notcat with what used to be called a compact disc player, once upon a time. The pieces on said recording are for a variety of instruments, not all of them Terran; one is a duet between a Vulcan lyre and a sitar, another's flute solo is played on the Andorian version of the instrument, a third combines a piano, a violin and a Trill harp.
