 Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - ❄ Lunar Library Lurker ❄ - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror
Exchanging the plate of pheasant for the clapshot, Nigel spooned some onto his plate, the smell reminding him of his past even more as it was brought closer to his senses. The utensil was stopped from returning to the bowl for a moment or two when he heard what Elinor had said concerning his mother. That was certainly an interesting turn of events yet a completely innocent inquiry and something that he should have expected.
Family heritage and food...family history.
"I'm sure she might have said something like that," he finally mused as he finished the movement in returning the spoon to the bowl of food, setting both back down on the table. Not that he would ever have known her to say as much seeing the fact that the woman in question was no longer there in his life. Just one of the many things the shopkeeper had yet to mention about his life but not necessarily an unpleasant memory.
