( he sips more of his hungary water while watching miss bennet prepare her tea. suddenly, a concern forms in his mind, flickering dimly before exploding into a blaze: he wasn't able to enjoy and partake in any apple festivities. he recalls grasping a goblet of apple cider in his hand, lounged on a barrel, and readying to savour the cloying drink. for the most part, he refrained from consuming in sweets, as was recommended by the naval surgeon whose mouth resembled a cave with jagged teeth sticking from every way. but that naval surgeon saved the boatswain's hand during a sea battle and was learned in john hunter's writings, thus atticus took his advice seriously. however, after a hard three weeks of labour, this day would have been the time to indulge in sweets.

atticus takes no notice, content enough in his conversation about beethoven and in this company to not employ a constant sense of vigilance about his history. ) When you are comfortable enough, I would be delighted to hear it.
