[Oh hell. Will doesn't say anything to stop her, though he does stiffen when he realizes where she's headed. Still, it's not like he hadn't planned on making her aware of them tomorrow morning (or afternoon, whatever), and they are all technically hers. So he goes quiet and watches her open that card, which is...
...in Spanish. Guess who doesn't know Spanish? Will Graham. So she'll find herself faced with a moping bulldog with big warm eyes looking up and saying Get well soon. The inside has more Spanish wishing a swift recovery and sending warm thoughts your way, Will's writing on the other side, in English, that lets her in on the secret. The secret apparently being:
The only other card they had in Spanish was something religious. Happy six month anniversary. And then, there's a few tries of scribbled out ti amo and tu amo and te amor before he eventually gave up and just added. I love you. - Will
Bronze star for effort?]
The other card had the Virgin Mary on the front and everything. I...thought the dog was better.
[The box itself is a collection of Janet Snakehole merchandise, if she had merchandise. A black t-shirt with the snake, big and bold, on the back like some fantastical house sigil. A black coffee mug with the same, and the handle at the top having been crafted in the shape of a snake's head, biting onto the rim of the cup to hold it in place. A pair of those terrible ballet flats, yellow, with the words GO and AWAY written large and in loud red font just over the toes so anyone looking at her straight on could read the message loud and clear. Black socks with the snake on the ankle are stuffed into them. And, at the very bottom of the collection, is a pair of tickets to an art show happening just outside of Heropa at the end of May. A short list of artists featured is on the back of both tickets, and there's one name he hopes sticks out more than others. One that maybe now has started putting gonads on sculptures of lady angler fish.
And maybe she'll also notice that the snake is an exact recreation of her tattoo, in the way that suggests either Will took a picture of it or drew it from memory. Every little detail is there, no skimping out.]
