Anniversary dinner complete! I had tuna tartare, seared steelhead, and strawberry mousse. I did not remember to get a pic of the steelhead. My wife had a fancy toast thing, veal Milanese, and a chocolate mousse. I also had a Last Word, a Caipirinha, and a lemon drop martini. I am drunk.
Today my wife and I celebrate our 15 year anniversary. 🩷😱🩷 She is taking me out to dinner tonight! I got her roses, and an opal necklace! She got me 2 sets of jasper earrings! I am so lucky!🩷 It doesn't feel lile 15 years... which is wild because it's actually longer! We started dating in 2003!

Yeah. But that's par for the course in this novel.
No brass. No bromze. Went with silver. Plenty of that.
No "wing", well- no instance of wing that isn't a massive spoiler. So I'm using "flew" instead.
Eager? I think the answer has to be Amy! For both the innocent and the naughty definitions of eager!
