I JUST CAME TO SAY HELLO / private

[jacob w.c.]

WHAT A PRIVILEGE IT IS TO LOVE — Jacob absolutely adored Pinch's daughter. She was a girl after his own heart, after all. Both times he'd seen her, her primary interest had been in his food and he couldn't say he blamed her. After all, the entire reason he'd gotten to know his own Ma had been because she'd taught him all about herbs, as well as how to sew and bake and cook. Food had been one of the first positive skills he'd learned. That marked a new part of his life, a part where he no longer had to worry about breaking and entering or going unnoticed. He could just live in peace. Well, that had been the idea anyway. Things hadn't quite worked out that way in the end but nothing he ever did seemed to work out quite the way he planned and he'd learned to be content with that. He just hoped that the safety he found in Snowbound would last longer than it did in Jersey. He wasn't sure he could bear all that loss for a second time.

When he heard Goldie's voice, a wide smile spread across his maw and he made his way over to the girl happily. "Hi Goldie! 'Course ya' can. Ya' don' gotta' call me mister, by the way. I mean, unless ya' want to I guess," he stated before turning and making his way back into the hut. He was technically staying with Pincher in the sub but there wasn't any room to make anything in there so he'd opted for one of the huts to help Goldie. He moved around the room, gathering the supplies he needed. "Did ya' wanna' make some sweets, like the cupcakes n' things, or somethin' tha's for a meal, like pasta n' stuff?" he asked. —A GREAT HONOR TO HOLD YOU UP
