Thank you for the tag @philtstone! 💜 Here is some proof that I am working on my very neglected Soften Every Edge:

Fergus slumped into a seat. He misjudged just how fresh from the stove the porridge was and burnt his tongue on the first bite, letting out a colorful swear in the otherwise silent kitchen. A soft tsk came from behind him and Papa’s hand touched his shoulder as he walked past.  “Mind yer tongue, lad.”  He knew Papa meant his language and not the way Fergus had burned himself. Fergus stifled a retort; the word lad chafed more than the way Papa had chided him. He would be sixteen soon. He was studying for his exams and would go to university in the fall — precisely when would he be a man with the freedom to say as he pleased if not now?

No pressure tagging @theawkwardterrier @forgetmenotsassenach17 @frasers-of-my-heart and anyone else who wants to share the last line (or lines, in my case) that they wrote!
