“Both sound lovely.” The Spathiphyllum more than the other, actually. “By forgiving,’’ he continued, eyeing the woman as his brain still raced to place her. “You mean that should we forget to give it water, it would still thrive to an extent?” Please help a man figure things out. “The wifey can be forgetful at times… so uh huh. If that’s the case with the Spathiphyllum, then I think I’d like to have that one, thanks.”

Was she now brainstorming about some suggestions for his sister dearest? Jer would not break her focus then.

Until he did.

“You went to Ilvermorny!”

There it was again. Wifey. It and other pet names, especially 'babe', were among the most innocuous words in the spoken word. Existence, survival, all hinged on separation and unique identity and among those factors was your name. When you first meet an individual, among the first questions one may ask is their name and that sharing could, arguably, be quite the intimate gesture. So why, oh why, would you want to be stripped of that by a person you were meant to have a partnership with? When one began using such saccharine sweet words, it often turned into rarely uttering the other's name and then...well...there was a history she would like not to tread along and relive while attempting to maintain a certain level of professionalism.

Which is why her jaw set as she force a polite but tight lipped smile on her snowflake kissed skin - essentially devoid of any warmth despite said smile. "Yes," she confirmed his inquiry before whipping out her notebook and jotting down a note to pick one of those up from the greenhouse outback. "Asclepias tuberosa, or butterfly root, would make a fine addition to ---"

Interrupted. Truly, one of her favorite things to be: interrupted. Just ask the cockroach in the jar in her pocket how well she took to being interrupted.

Tempted to ignore his recognition of her previous schooling and continue to explain her suggestion, Valerie closed her eyes for three counts while holding her breath before releasing it slowly through her nostrils on the beat of four. "I did." Though her tone hardly shared his enthusiasm.

She did not have particularly fond memories from Ilvermorny outside of Kyle and Jesús...and even those were horrendously tempted now thanks to the pompous bronzed Thunderbird.
