[ HO HO HO, AND MERRY CHRISTMAS! Courtesy of beetlemail, Skeets will receive a package of some nice chocolates filled with all sorts of goodies -- caramel, fruit, coffee... you name it! And some polish. Just in case. ]

Merry Christmas, Skeets! I know you're new to tasting things and if I was new to it, chocolate's what I would wanna eat.

- Jaime

Are you all right, Mr. President?

[ DELIVERED in the back half of July: A leather-bound journal filled with Ser Jorah’s hand-written notes on the histories of Westeros, Essos and Sothoryos (largely a mystery, even to him) and their respective inhabitants. His breakdowns of Westeros and the Valyrians of Essos are the most extensive, with details on each of the Seven Kingdoms and descriptions of many of the more important noble houses who live there. He’s written about law and Maesters and the Night’s Watch, the Wall, Winter and the Wildlings.

With regard to describing houses, he’s really laid things out for the Starks, Lannisters, Baratheons, Mormonts and Targaryens. The Mad King and his death, Robert’s death, Ned’s death, the Red Wedding and Joffrey’s murder are included. He briefly notes what current GoT characters belong to which families. Things he does not touch upon at all include Lannister incest and other similar rumors. Myrcella is listed as a Baratheon.

While he provides very brief pictures of Baelish and Daenerys’ respective stations in the world, the details of how they got there are more like timelines than biographies. They are very vague, and don’t lend much in the way of insight as to their means or motivations. Robot eyes might detect that there are pages missing in this area where re-writes occurred.

He’s included information on the way power changes hands and has changed hands in the past, politics in general, descriptions of known diseases and medicines, plants and animals with rough illustrations. Lizard-lions are similar to alligators, and so on. He describes what little technology they have, the major religions in Westeros, the fall (and return of) dragons, and general attitudes on the existence of magic. He notes that he was skeptical both of the gods and of magic until he witnessed blood magic and the return of dragons with his own eyes.

His vocabulary is formidable and his handwriting is pristine. He was clearly happier to oblige than he initially let on. ]

Skeets, I have a few questions for you.

[CURRENT DATE—

Wanda had been just a bit too dead to give out her Christmas/Hanukkah/holiday presents in December, so this comes a bit delayed:

Wanda got every member of the Justice League one winter-y scented candle and a $20 gift card (uhh like those Visa gift cards that can be used basically anywhere).]
