[The corner of Silent Salt's mouth twitches downward as he notes the flaws in his efforts. Nevertheless, Elder Faerie seems to be pleased by it, and he knows his dear friend would not lie to him. He'll simply have to settle for improving, should he ever be granted the chance at a next time.]
I am glad that you think so.
[He stands, then bows at the waist. It all feels so formal, but at the same time... it's the easiest form of reverence that Silent Salt knows. The praise will be filed away for later, to suffuse him long after Elder Faerie has fallen asleep.]
I will not keep you. Pray rest easy this evening.
[He scoops down once more, grabbing his helmet and putting it back on. The same is done with his gauntlets.]
[Elder faerie watches him, beaming again. he is filled with such elation at this moment, he doesn't know how he'll be able to sleep. but it is fine. he must sleep, so that they can have their morning walk]
Thank you, old friend. Please let me know if something is amiss.
[he moves to get under the covers, nice and cozy. a thought occurs to him, but he buries it swiftly]
[Silent Salt makes his way to the door. He casts a quick glance over his shoulder, taking in the sight of his dear friend. It is good to see him so comfortable, so at ease. Another sight to commit to memory, he thinks, as he takes is place just outside the door. He nudges the door closed only slightly, enough to see inside and hear what is important, and to listen if Elder Faerie wishes it, while still providing a modicum of privacy.
With all that settled, Silent Salt takes up his watch.]
