[Alvin is a little surprised to see the box, and upon opening it, impressed by the contents. It's not too difficult to assume it's a late wedding gift (although not really that late), but from whom...?
The message is indeed a clue, although it would have been difficult if he hadn't already received gifts from possible suspects already. So that left...
...No...
...No.....
....................Could it?
The possibility that it could have been from that guy is a bit amusing.]
Well this is definitely not how I expected things to turn out. [Spoken to no one as he examines the watch and the note one last time before heading inside to prepare for the extended trip.
Should he send a message? Or should he wait? The guy left it anonymous—and granted, Alvin can't be 100% sure. Then again, the handwriting looks similar to when he first actually "talked" to the guy. Hard to miss such sharp, fluid lettering. The watch is also rather fancy, something he could imagine him picking up.
In the end, as he and Presa depart, he sends off a messenger bird. Maybe it'll drop the message on Kylo's head. Maybe it'll leave it at his window or door. But the little card will just have a short reply.]
And to second chances.
[There were a variety of things he could have said, but he end up with those instead. While the words hold true for him and Presa, it may be a subtle message to Kylo as well.
Alvin has no idea where he really stands with the guy aside from "neutral" and "let's not have a repeat of last time," and he's not exactly trying to be overtly friendly. But...maybe. Maybe if he can help prevent Kylo from being a complete disaster (or more of one than he already is) at least in this place, then things might go better for everyone.

And he can have a happier, peaceful marriage.
(Ssh he can have selfish reasons)]
