[he pushes to his feet] I know exactly where we can get a decent champagne and there's a wonderful bakery in town where we could get a cake. We might have to write "congratulations on the death of one of your foster parents" on it ourselves, but I'm sure we'll manage.
Then maybe we'll ask if we can sample a couple different kinds. Just to make sure you get the right one, of course. [yep, off they go indeed. And Oswald is going to make sure they get a very nice bottle of champagne and they go through about four or five different samples of cake before Edward is encouraged to pick one out....and finally, some icing from the grocery store, so they can write a message on the top]

He's quiet for a moment, looking down at the ends of his vest] I know it's, well, a bit silly. You certainly have plenty of experience. Only...[he swallows]...would you call me, when you're done? Just to check-in? |
