Good pick. [His eyes shut, one hand running over his face as he thinks. It's a very thoughtful look despite the absolute disaster that is his hair.] Maybe she'd tell us how he died and where he's buried. Maybe she doesn't even know. Nobody else seems to.
[And then his eyes open wide, the sure sign of some great and terrible realization...]
The boring kind of old or the embalmed-and-locked-in-a-sarcophagus kind of old?
[He may be dead but he doesn't have to go through that particular process, asking this with eyebrow raised and clearly quite curious for the clarification. Mummy husband could be cool if she got to rip his bandages right off.]
[April earns the most contented sigh known to any creature with ears as Will wraps his other arm around her and drags her down right atop him. The loosest, easiest to break out of cage made from flesh and bone ever.]
If I grow boring, you've got grounds for a divorce. [He turns his head to plant a kiss to her temple. If his nose gets filled with hair at any point he does not care.] S'the last thing I want. You've got nothing to worry about, me turning into a boring old bastard. Not gonna happen.
[He cranes his neck back to get a good look at her, fake horror on his face.]
Didn't marry me because of love, huh? [It was all a game! He sees now.] Have to work on that. I'll get you one day. When you least expect it. You'll love me if it's the last thing I do, Janet.
[Like on a random day months from now when April receives a slew of purple roses for no reason, yeah. It's gonna happen.]
I've heard stories. Just stories. [Whispered, like it's some sacred myth they're discussing. Need to put on the holy garments necessary to even talk about this.] What's the truth of your pillow habits? Is it easier to show than tell?
[ There is one last yawn. Just to get it out of the way. April isn't rude enough to yawn in the position she's moving to, one straddling Will with knees on either side of his hips. ]

What if he was a vampire?

Unless he got really boring after he retired. Babe, you're not allowed to get that kind of old.

Can't you just be happy being a human pillow? You never have to get out of bed again.

The human pillow position still gets used for more than sleeping on, right?
