Sylvi

Sylvi waited by the lakeside with her chosen gifts. The moment she had seen that "Vera" was asking for jewelry, she knew exactly what she was going to get. And she was already making a quick trip there anyways, so it all worked out in the end.

She had only been there a little while when she saw a green haired girl woman walking up. "Ah, you must be Miss Vera. I presume you are here for Secret Santa?" She said, extending her hand out towards her. "Sylvi Thorsblood. Valkyrie."

Since her arrival Vera had spent a great deal of time learning about new concepts, the type of things that never reached the trading posts. Receiving presents was not one of them. She was generously rewarded all the time for a job well done, it was a bummer that wasn’t quite the case on the island. So when Vera overheard that there was a secret santa she jumped on the opportunity immediately. Occasionally something similar happened at the trading posts, bartering was easy when everyone else was vulnerable to persuasion. She always got the better end of the deal. It was a bit of a risk to assume that her partner would get her something that would get her something of equal value and not some piece of garbage, but thanks to her previous gifts, Vera had plenty of cash to burn.

Vera arrived at their meeting spot dressed for the occasion, wearing a wool coat with thick fur lining and a matching pillbox hat that covered her ears. The present was underneath her arm, wrapped in the type of paper so fancy that one would hesitate to even bother opening it. Her tail poked out from underneath the coat, swaying as she waved to Sylvi.

“ Mhmm. Why else would I be here?” She nearly handed her the box before realizing that Sylvi was going for a handshake. With her gloves still on Vera shook Sylvi’s hand then held out the present towards her. “ And if you don’t like it I left the receipt in there too.”

Sylvi

"A pleasure to meet you." Sylvi said, she hadn't quite noticed the tail yet. Having grown up far away from the world of mortals, she knew very little about how to go about the secret santa. She had gotten some advice from Hakon, so hopefully everything went well.

"Ah, right into the exchange then? Very well." Sylvi said, picking up her present which had been resting on the ground next to her. She took the present out of Vera's hands and replaced it with her ownIt had been expertly wrapped in candy cane styled wrapping paper, and topped with a sparkly silver bow.

"I am sure I will like your gift, there is no need to worry. Though, I do hope you like mine." If Vera opened it, she would find a small wooden bow, and inside she would find a silver necklace featuring Yggdrasil, the tree of life, as well as a golden bracelet, with the ode to Baldr inscribed.

" I'll take that." Vera nearly snatched the present from Sylvi's hand, her eye immediately drawn to the sparkly bow. She held up the jewelry to the sun to inspect it. As she did, her pupils dilated. This certainly was the real deal. Vera read the inscription then looked back up to Sylvi with a saccharine smile.

" I totally do! This is perfect! Especially those neat little words. " She replied back, already putting the jewelry on. " Go ahead, open yours~"

If Sylvi opened the present inside she would find a high end pair of work out leggings with a headband and hair tie to match and a blu-ray disc for Avatar (2009). One of these presents was not like the others.

" Well I'm glad you don't mind because actually one of them isn't returnable anyways." In a shipping mishap she had received an extra copy of the movie she had intended for personal viewing, but Sylvi did mention an interest in pop culture.

Sylvi

Sylvi couldn't help but give a small laugh when Vera snatched the gift out of her hands. "They were forged in Asgard, I can personally assure their quality is second to none. Those 'neat little words' are a hymn to Baldr." She said, before giving a small smile. "But nevertheless, I am glad that you like them."

Once Vera was done with her gift, Sylvi would turn her attention towards Vera's gift. She unwrapped the package deliberately, gasping a little when she saw what was inside. "These are perfect!" She said as she examined the leggings and matching head band and tie. "Er.. Thank you." Sylvi said, scaling down her excitement just a bit. Until a small DVD caught her attention.

"Hm? Excuse me, Vera. But, what is this?" She asked, holding up the DVD, unsure of exactly what it was, outside of the word Avatar on it.
