She is happy to provide to the limits of her information about the recipients.

He knows them pretty well, so that will totally do. He ducks out and holds the door to check if computers work in Hogwarts (nope) and whether this breaks them permanently or they start working once removed from the premises again (they do).

He quizzes Bar some more and starts assembling little gift baskets for everyone - there's some gear for zero-gravity games that Fredrick and Theodore will both appreciate, there's a delightful array of exotic foods, there are blueprints, there are plastics, his father and Minor both get radios...

"So if you don't technically need to sleep, when you said you hadn't taken a break -"

Cam sits up and peers over the back of the sofa. "Do you want me to nap or do you want to talk about how unnecessary it is for me to nap."

"Sorry." And he can continue gift-planning with Bar over napkins.

Cam goes back to sleep. Bar is very helpful.

Everyone will get their presents in a smooth chrome basket that no power on Earth could achieve in 1802. He doesn't have enough money to get them for every kid in the school but he asks Bar if she minds if he has Cam duplicate things he bought from her.

Bar does not mind at all. Also she can accept counterfeit.

The goblins would probably not appreciate that if it ever somehow got back to them and everyone is a dick to the goblins so he is trying not to be. But it's good to know anyway, thank you! He plans out on parchment the gift baskets for everyone else in the school.

Cam wakes up after a few hours.

Miranda gets a book on the decline of the British Empire which he is currently annotating heavily, another book that walks one through all the technical calculations involved in going to the Moon, a computer, the Igbo alphabet in the timeline where she didn't invent it, and an account of the transition away from human slaveholding which he will be heavily annotating as soon as he's done with the current one.

"Whatcha writing?"

"Well, now that we've got a timeline to compare to we can probably avoid some mistakes and catastrophes and so on - I'm trying to figure out what the best handling of the next century's events looks like -"

"Wizards don't seem to have affected the course of history?"

"We try really hard to stay out of Muggle events, so that's not as surprising - you had witch-burnings without any actual witches, but even in ours, lots of innocent Muggles were caught up in those..."

"Were yours even in fact witch-prompted? Are witches a separate thing from wizards?"

"Uh, woman are witches, men are wizards, there's no actual difference, at least some witch-burnings were witch-prompted - some people find being burned at the stake hilarious - but I haven't been able to trace down any histories specific enough to identify a divergence - well, not from that subject, there's a little town in Poland where a dragon killed everyone and it looks intact on your maps, but doesn't look to have much affected the course of history -"

"Dragons. Gosh."

"They're pretty cool if you know what you're doing. Most places have reserves, and teams to keep them from flying off and terrifying or murdering Muggles, but - some teams care more about that than others -"

"...and if a dragon gets loose somebody memory charms the Muggles and tells them it was a forest fire?"

"Yup."

"Ugh."

"The Statute is the most selfish, inhumane waste of resources since Azkaban was founded. We're going to get it repealed, though, a lot of people are coming around."

"Azkaban?"

"Wizarding prison."

"...is a selfish inhumane waste of resources?"
