Lorne is on the verge of retreating with the plan to come back in a few hours when he hears some noise from within, and shortly thereafter the door opens to reveal a sleepy-looking Watch captain. He smiles easily in return. "Captain Lance, good morning."

The crunch of snow catches his attention and he turns to see Deron, as ever with one of his birds. Wearing leg warmers - that's both cute and impressive. He holds his arms to the side a little, inclines his head. "It's me. Surprise?" To Lance, he adds, "I'm sorry if I woke you." He is very clearly Not On Duty given those clothes. "I can come by later if that would be better."
