Yeah, that'd probably cut the list by about half. [He shrugs lightly, watching as Richard kneels down to study the plants in question. Even in the darkness, it's hard not to notice how careful he is with them, as if they might shatter on contact.]
[He must've zoned out for a minute there, because when Richard turns his gaze back to him, Asbel finds himself snapping to attention with a start.]
--Sophie? She's...she's been great! And about as excited as anyone for the wedding. [He rubs the back of his neck, lifting his head to survey the night. It's actually really nice out, the air smelling fresh and green and slightly damp.]
She went on a shopping trip with the girls earlier this week to pick out dresses, I think. [Or was that several weeks ago?] And she keeps saying how she's looking forward to being a flower girl. I think she's asked me about a dozen times to explain exactly what they do during a ceremony so she can get every little detail right.
