The morning after the holiday, there is a small package at the farmhouse - the light dusting of frost on it might tell that it did not come through the mail. But it's marked for Phil.
Inside is a set of cufflinks, their distinguishing feature being the polished sea glass that they show off. Yet, it's different - clear melded with light green and blue, and a thin streak of brown, colors merged in a way that is both deliberate and pure chance. They aren't identical, but they complement each other.

And a note, folded in the back.
Happy Givingstide.

Ah.
Well, aren't these so wonderfully lovely? They even match his eyes.
(Taking them inside, he immediately replaces the pearl cufflinks left in pride of place in his jewelrybox with these ones.)
