[Private to the Admiral]
Archer: He had a dog once back home. Ah'd like him ta have it back, plus everythin' Archer's gonna need ta take care of it.
Charles: A book about Shi'ar history, but in English.
Erik: Let me take care of this one.
Jean: A framed photo of all the X-folk she remembers. Nothin' with those of us she hasn't actually met yet.
Iris: Ah'd like her ta have a scrapbook filled with reminders of all her good times with Wade, and the other folks she loves here.
Arthas: He needs a coffee pot of his own. And a bag of Highland Grog. Strongest coffee Ah've ever had.
Dean: A new leather jacket. A nice one.
Kara: A winter cape.
Victor: Ah want him ta have a plush toy version of his Daemon from the breach. And it should have a collar with Blink on the name tag.
Beatrix: A crane art spiral. In colors that represent peace, long life, and internal balance.
Raven: A set of sapphire jewelry. A necklace, a ring, earrings and a bracelet.
[Private to Bruce Banner and the other Infirmary staff + Iris]
Hey there, Doc. Ah know you're probably flooded right now, what with all post holiday crazy people have suddenly decided t'indulge in, but Ah was wonderin' if Ah might bend yer ear on somethin'.
Archer's got a real bad case of tinnitus. Boy's been shot so many times it's a small wonder he's still around. But Ah was wonderin' if there's anythin' ya'll could do ta help him so he could maybe get some sleep without a fan blowin' all night long.
[Now just Banner]
And on another note, Ah was wonderin' if we could chat a spell 'bout our inmates, and how they sort of inadvertently brought up some painful stuff in a real public way.

[She knocks on his door, because she doesn't want to give him a chance to run from this conversation. She'd given him enough time to cool off and calm down. Now it was time to talk.]
Archer, open up. It's me.

[She still hate talking about this. It was one of those times she had nearly lost her mind for good. She can't meet his eyes to tell him this story, so she looks at her hands.]
We were captured pretty much on the spot. The guards they....[Her faces screws up into a look that is part sarcastic smile, part wince, part snarl.] What'd they call it? They got 'handsy'. Yeah, that's the term they used ta describe it. Ah was defenseless, and they got handsy.
