[Quiet, mumbled for her ears only. He's been told to shut up and yet shut up he does not. He had one rule. Is he even trying? Gosh. But choice is an important buzzword for Will Graham, and he knows better than to ever suspect she's operating under some fear that if she makes a "wrong move" he'll lash out for it, so.]
You have a uniquely solid mask of unconcern, April. Never seen one so perfectly crafted before you. But underneath that beautiful mask, [he squeezes her hand, a smile in his voice without being on face] there is a well of care. You might not want anyone else to see it, or know it's there, but you've shown me that side of you enough for me to know, without a doubt, it exists. You've shown me again this morning.
[Nope, he didn't shut up at all. He did the opposite. Emotional observations come pouring out like he's never heard the phrase "shut up" at all and therefore doesn't know what it means.]
I say thank you because, regardless of circumstance, I am always honored to get a glimpse beyond the veil. It is a privilege for you to deem me worthy of seeing you as you are, in every light. That's the you I love, April. All of you.
