[Just as the weather takes a severe dip into colder temperatures, Pom keeps his word and makes a delivery for Northly - or, more accurately, he waits outside the library for her to emerge, knowing that if he goes inside, she'll ask how his reading lessons are going, and he's not ready to answer that question.
So linger outside in the cold himself it is, a package tucked under his arm. Wrapped in festive paper and a ribbon, it's clearly a gift. As the library closes up for the evening, he watches patrons and employees both step out the door and into the street as he waits for his opportunity to catch Northly off-guard.]
[Rowan bundled her up before she left her flat in the morning, and as such she is in fact wearing one of Pom's stolen shirts. Though it looks silly and oversized on her, she was taken enough by the idea that she allowed the gesture, them declaring "much better" as they sent her our the door. And maybe that's the charm that resulted in this treat as she steps into the cold.
She knew he was nearby thanks to their earrings and the proximity of his bundle of nerves clear enough through the bond regardless, but the package is a true surprise. She thought for sure he would slip away having left it in her nest bed.]
