grizzlygareth: “Cicero,” Grizz says as he signs, his eyes flickering away from Sam’s for a split second so he can think without distraction, so he can remember his language. “I think,” he is quick to add as he presses his index finger to his forehead in an attempt to not look so sure, to not seem so all-knowing. However, his lips twitch upwards just the slightest, and just like that, Sam immediately knows that Grizz knows what he is talking about.“Cicero?” repeats Sam in a whisper, smiling when Grizz nods his head eagerly, an affirming “yeah” slipping past his lips.Their eyes haven’t wavered for a second, but then Sam smiles and gives him an impressed nod. “Very smart” he compliments with a grin, and that is all that is needed for Grizz to lose his composure. “Oh, thank you so much,” he replies shyly before they both start snickering. His eyes flit to the unpicked carrots in the vegetable garden only milliseconds before Sam’s does the same, and he comes to a conclusion right there and then: He has all he needs, almost. -- source link
