"You will make an excellent Thanksgiving dinner," marveled Daniel. "What stuffing are you hoping for?"
"Sage," said Thomas, without pause to consider. "It is such a strong, full herb."
"Not like 'thyme,'" said Daniel, unconsciously turning up his bill a tad. "'Thyme is for little, skinny, stressed birds."
"Like wild turkey."
"Yes, like wild turkey."
The two sat in ruffled composure for a moment, cere and nail wrinkled at the thought of a thyme-stuffed wild turkey.
"They will definitely be thankful for you," said Daniel.
"They better be," said Thomas.
