Drabble: The Right Words

[dwgm]

A hundred words, including the title, for the current potc100 challenge, "Farewell"...

~ The Right Words ~

What sort of farewell was suitable for such an occasion? Parting from one who was not only a recent comrade-in-arms, but the son of an old friend. One who'd given all in an effort to do right by ol' Jack! A bit startling, that. Not precisely unprecedented, but... unusual. A rarity. Something of an oddity. But that was a Turner for you. Came through, in the end, regardless of the sacrifice involved. Profound thanks were certainly in order -- but later. When he wasn't so rushed. A briefer encomium would have to suffice:

"Will... nice hat!"
