Once she was close enough he reached up, and though his fingers were somewhat clumsy at it he undid the top knot, then trailed his index finger down to loosen it from her hair. Once the bottom knot was also cleared, he took the scarf, holding it between his hands, running his thumb over it. He'd had this for a long time, through thick and thin. It was there when he tricked Junior that he was a bushel basket genie; was there on the trip to the Hole Who Knows Where; was there underneath his elaborate costume for Joke Day. He'd been wearing it when he'd first met Doc and had learned Sprocket's name.

Smiling gently, he leaned close to Lexi again, almost in a hug. This let him pass the scarf around from one hand to the other, behind her neck. Once he sat back, he pulled both ends to the front, flipped one over the other and put in an expert knot, one he'd tied many times. Not too tight to the neck, but not so loose either. Once it was tied he left the scarf skewed to Lexi's left, trailed one end back over her shoulder as he'd so often worn it himself. He caught her up in a warm smile; one hand touched himself, then the same hand went to her, where the scarf's knot had come to rest.

It had been with him a long time... But he could always get another scarf.
