[He is certainly not expecting to get anything a delivery, so is slightly wary upon the Innskeeper handing it off to him, but also very curious as he takes it back to his room. The design on the box doesn't mean anything to him, and so it's only once he carefully opens the box and realizes what the object is that he knows who must have sent it.
It's easily one of the nicest--if not the nicest--gifts he's ever received, not just intrinsically, but because of the little things; the engraving, the note, the thought put into it. He looks over all the details and designs of the watch, listening to the soft ticking noise it makes, as he does the unfamiliar sense of feeling cared about settles in his chest. It's been years since he'd known anyone who would've cared enough to even consider doing something like this, especially when he and Hilda had known each other for... How long has it been? Two months?
He has no real idea of the right way to respond to this--the gift, the sentiment itself, any of it--but resolves to figure out something she might like in return. In the meantime, he will be being very careful to make sure this watch survives longer than the others.]
