[ Root does not really celebrate Christmas so she is absolutely unprepared for this, and just a little bit touched. It's not about the holiday to her, but that Richard thought of her at all.
She shows up at the inn's feast in a festive dress, a bit like a 50s pinup girl in bright red against her dark curled hair. She's really here for Richard, but she waits for an opportune moment to approach him, carrying a drink and smiling. It's not as easy a smile as normal -- being forcibly separated from Shaw, there's some strain to her expression, but it's subtle unless someone knows her well. ]
You didn't have to get me anything, [ she says by way of greeting. ] But I won't turn down the bow.
