(( DOH! I just realized that I forgot to say what the gift Eiko got for them was! It's done in the style of the painting on a Greek amphora, showing a classical image of Hermes, along with a similarly stylized Norman - like that icon! - but done on a flat panel of green glass in shades of green and blue, and mounted to be hung on a wall. Alas, the mun sucks at art, and therefore the drawing of it is beyond the skill. ))
Hermes adores it and knows the perfect spot to hang it - on one of the walls in the Impluvium, so it can catch the light reflected off the rainwater pool.
((Like Eiko, I forgot to mention the prezzies. Djehuty sent over a pair of gold winecups from the court of Psusennes, to go along with Ruthven's case of 1799 Chateau Yquem. Marginatus nibbled a set of napkin rings out of particularly well-colored mussel shells; and Chesh inflicted one of his damn singing flowers on them--a lone white hyacinth singing 'Voi che sapete' from the Marriage of Figaro.))
((More gift memos- seeing as Norman and Hermes have no lack of funds with which to start their married life, Otto opted to offer them something strange and horrific instead- a genuine Fiji Mermaid, c. 1980 or so, for Hermes, and a genuine Hurdy-Gurdy for Norman, though he hopes that Norman never bothers actually trying to play it. It's the sentiment that counts, right?))
