Velma updates:
Some time after Elise left, he asked me, "Is that Elise?" and "Is she coming back?" Both were very clearly enunciated; when I asked, "Do you want to talk with her?" he nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, yes, yes!"
Unabashedly romantic moment:
Tonight, for the first time in almost a week, when I asked him if he wanted music, he said, "Yes." Now, Gavin loaded his iPod with songs he knew Soren would like, songs he didn't think Soren knew, and "songs that will make [your] skin crawl." I asked Soren how he felt about Billy Squier's greatest hits, and got The Look once again; he approved of Sufjan Stevens, and when I went through the album titles, settled on Seven Swans, an album he thinks is magnificent.
He lay there, listening to the album and smiling. When the title cut came on, he started mouthing the words, and crying ... and all I could think of was the way he responds to music, the way he reacted to the Elliott Smith song the night I fell in love with him, and how this man, with his totally open responses to things that bring him joy, is the one I want to spend the rest of my life with.
