A present is delivered to K-2SO - notedly, to his workplace at Velvet Lust, not to the guardian station or his home.
Sensors will detect no danger, and when he opens the nondescript brown packing paper, he will find a wooden box. There is something distinctly Everglade about the finely grained black wood and ornate brass fittings.
Inside lays a clockwork heart of red glass and silver metal, the glass warm to the touch and glowing eerily. If you hold it long enough it will feel like it pulses in your hand. Everglade, indeed.
Tucked against the side of the box is an electronic message written on Nova City's counterpart to flexis.
I tried to find something less macabre, but nothing else got the point across like this. - Cassian
Calculations will tell that it is too light for the material used. If the key at the top is turned it will indeed open, to reveal it is hollow and empty on the inside. The screws can be turned as well, just like the small cogwheels. It will take just the right combination to reveal another compartment. It holds a single white Lullaby pill. While Kay will know he has more than one, he hopes this will indeed get the point across.
[After opening the presents Kay is left in such state of surprise that it takes his seconds and incredibly long time -2 seconds- to process what he is seeing.
After that, Kay holds the heart close to his chest, asks permission to leave work early and goes to find Cassian. Time to show his boyfriend how much he appreciated the gift.]
