[And Will, of course, is keeping a keen ear out. Shower? Yeah, he could understand that desire. He'd had a few days where he'd come back wanting nothing but a long, warm shower. So he spends that time making Jeff's breakfast the best it can be, adding healthy garnishes that can be eaten or left on the plate, everything cooked to absolute perfection. When Jeff finally emerges, Will does his best to keep his cool. Easier with Sharkbait around, easier when he's adding on the very last of the finishing touches.

He never garnishes plates like this without reason. The fact he's gone so far with it may give away the game about how worried he was. The orange juice is freshly squeezed with rinds still on the counter, for God's sake.]

Most important meal of the day. [He keeps his cool even as he hands the plate Jeff's way, watching it to make sure Jeff has a good hold instead of seeking immediate eye contact. Instead of immediately looking him over like he's expecting something to be out of place.] Coffee's fresh. Went ahead and made OJ, too. We had enough for a pitcher. Why not, yeah?

[Welcome home, Jeff.]
