Warnings Language - but only a little
Just before returning from Vegas, the young wizard had made an impromptu trip home - he had practically been in his family's backyard, so why not? Plus, there was something he wanted to do. His mother had been thrilled to see him, even for just a couple of hours. He'd been able to catch her up on the move, and how he was liking Snowcap. Yes, he was eating enough. No, he wasn't just telling her that. Yes, he would tell Nora and Freddy hello.
He didn't head straight back to Snowcap, once the visit was over. Mateo had one more stop to make - a very important stop, at a little hole in the wall jeweler's shop in Point Loma. The sign outside was faded, and most people wouldn't have even realized the place was there, if they weren't looking for it, but Filbrick Marchant was the best at what he did. His father had gotten every piece of jewelry for his mother from Filbrick, right down to their wedding rings. There was no one else he would have trusted with something this important.
Filbrick was standing in the middle of his shop, hands clasped behind his back, with a small, knowing smile on his face. "I thought I'd be seeing you, Mateo," The old man conjured them a pair of stools, and sat down on one, gesturing to Mateo to take the other. "Go on. Tell me about the girl, then."
