Accidental slip or a more meaningful sentiment?
April 20, 2025 at 04:03 AM
Marvolo and Gormlaith are discussing whether Marvolo's daughter and son meant to call her "mother".
Marvolo said, "It must have been an accidental slip, surely?"
Gormlaith disagreed, "I do not think it could have been. Your children rarely make such 'accidental slips' in their day to day conversations."
Marvolo raised an eyebrow. "How would you know that?"
Gormlaith smirked. "I just notice things, Marv."
Marvolo muttered, "I just don't understand why they would deliberately call you mother."
Gormlaith laid a hand on his shoulder and ever so slightly smiled. "Well, we shall have to ask them the next time that we see them then."
