[Does Alucard care about anything related to the actual holidays of Abraxas or home?
Absolutely not.
Is this an opportunity to try and surprise Jaskier?
100%
So he may have been thinking about this one for a while, given that the both of them have starting buying from galleries now, especially in Ikorr. Alucard has a few personal preferences, but between the two of them, there's a real enjoyment of sculpture.
Which is why when Jaskier comes into the office one day, he'll see a new bronze work sitting on the coffee table, taking up about the half the length of it. Two joyful gryphons are shown running beside each other in different stages of their movement cycle, frozen in time. They're clearly gryphons, but there's distinct flourishes to how feathers and fine details are depicted. Neither is especially meant to be Mog, but neither couldn't not be either. The artist's signature consists of a small bitemark of vampire teeth on one of the corners. Normal Ikorr stuff.
There's no note or explanation. There's no need. Neither of them are subtle and Quille isn't going to do something like this. Only the gauntlet thrown down for Jaskier.]
