Wherever makes the most sense to stumble into him after that little speech of his, Rocket will find a lanky, skeletal twig of a man trying to catch up with him. "So what kind of ship are you captain of, exactly? Are we talking pirates or space?" Maybe even both, but he doesn't say it.
[ Thanks to the help of Claire, Rocket will find a nicely wrapped present for him at his residence.
Resting on some very soft fabric is a lacquered case with his name engraved in gold on the lid. Upon opening it he'll find a set of work goggles with various lenses a little light on it to help him with his tinkering. The leather strap is adjustable and comfortable.
Rocket will also find a small mechanical lizard resting beside the case. While there are runes etched into each of the clockwork parts thanks to some ingenious New Magic, he'll quickly see that it's powered both by the sun and by winding its tail. The lizard is able to scuttle and move around most surfaces, but that's not its main function. A rolled up note tied to its leg will reveal that it's also capable of acting like a compass, always leading to true north.
Finally, unfurling the soft fabric will reveal that it's a scarf in a deep red yarn. It's soft to the touch and had clearly been stitched with the intent to keep the wearer warm. There's a short note accompanying it. ]
[the package is placed in rocket's loft, one morning, with the help of one little idiot climbing its way all the way up, doing a few trips to get everything up there. there's no need to make this a secret, but wanda thinks it's more exciting if it's unexpected. inside, an amount of homemade goods have been stacked atop each other: candles, soaps, and moisturizing lotions. all of them animal-friendly, of course.
something else lies wrapped, though, and once opened, it'll reveal itself to be a foldable, leather tool kit. rocket can fill it up with his most used tools and take it around with him. hopefully it's the kind of thing tinkerers like him would need and enjoy.
[In the weeks following this post, Rocket will receive an embroidered badge, designating them part of Aloy’s monster hunting crew. There doesn’t seem to be anything special about it—it can be sewn anywhere the wearer likes, and appears to have been stitched with a practiced hand.
If the wearer is incapacitated, a spell woven into the threads by Haelva will activate, allowing the user to send an emergency message to another member of the group—use it wisely.]
