“Not in the slightest, darling.” He offers, in case it helps. “I look forward to seeing what you’ve come up with. Thank you.” He offers easily, standing to help Niki slip out of the room and ensure he knew where he was going ahead of time before the butcher gets back to work, letting his perfectionist streak flow in making sure it was absolutely perfect for when Niki returned to do the inlay.
