Let me paint a picture for you, I'm feeling like Bob Ross
His nerves ease into a softer smile, breath releasing with audible relief. He’s about to say he could definitely manage to do so, a joke more than a promise, but he’s swept into her arms before he can put his foot anywhere near his mouth. It is not the long embrace of two people long separated by a veil and aching, finally able to manage something they have missed, but it’s no less encompassing for how fully she delivers it.
The remainder of his tension melts, comfort and flowers lingering as she steps away, and he stands less like a middle school boy preparing to ask a girl to dance for the first time, more like the son-in-law that he is. ”They have those!?” he gasps softly, eyes widening with a boyish delight over an idea he’d never once considered. ”Is it made out of ectoplasm? Is there ghost rain? Does it fall through objects and you lose it all the time?”
He could have gone on and on with questions about the operations of Mort’s realm, but she reminds him that he hasn’t requested her on the basis of education. Although he might be bothering Remi again at this rate, or maybe he could twist Enzo’s arm into an actual answer instead of something he can’t tell is a joke or not. ”Yes!” he says with a sudden, shy smile. He dives both hands into his jacket pockets, fingers brushing the cool glass orb and pulling it out with a bit of rustling.
”I didn’t really think this would feel complete without a memory from you.” He holds up the polished orb, its surface reflecting back the tree in a warped way. ”So, could you please hold it and think of your happiest memory with Flora? That way she can replay it back later.” He extends the birthday gift to her, and despite hugging her just a moment ago, is overly cautious with the hand-off, as if expecting it to pass right through her instead.
