( Is Violet just hiring servants to deliver things? Yes, obviously. Which is precisely why a handsome Dryad man was the one delivering the black box with a velvet bow to Sebastian's door (not that he could appreciate the artistry. Ugh.) And informing him it was a gift from "Lady Violet" with the message that he "needed something better than that ratty cloth on his face."
Inside was a replacement she apparently approved of. No need to thank her. )
[He does appreciate the artistry, though! He loves the soft feel of the velvet- it certainly makes it seem expensive, which tracks.
He scoffs as the man delivers her message.]
Of course she insults me even while giving me a gift.
[He assumed the servant knew her somehow, but he has no reply. Sebastian then remembers he has a gift for Violet, too, so makes the man wait while he finds it, then requests he take it back to her. It's certainly easier than Sebastian finding her.
He would have gotten her clothing, or an accessory of some sort, but he figures she's likely picky about stuff like that, and it's not like he knows anything about her style other than "rich", nor does he know what colours she typically wears. He will try to find this out in time. For now, he's gotten her a box of fancy chocolates from a local chocolatier, and a nice bottle of wine.]
Tell her thank you for the insult and the gift, and give her this, please.
