But Tiffany has no reason to suspect anything but a full recovery. It is possible to die of an old wound--or even a new wound brought to recover in an infirmary. If there were a suspicion, she might be disarmed by her name, deployed so fondly--amusingly--familiarly. If a little flush comes into her cheeks, she pretends not to notice it and would pray to the Maker that he does the same. Her hand is still on his and she does not want to move it, yet. She does not want to call attention to it. She does not want to move it.
"A fuck this of spiders," she agrees. "I think it will catch on in no time. We can write to someone and have it--oh, I don't know. Formalized, or canonized, or whatever you would do to register a title like that. I'm glad," swiftly afterward, like she might disguise this by joining it to their joking, "to find you've survived your fuck this. I can't imagine Riftwatch without you."
