The Twelve · an iconkind

Maple

Everyman

The everyman. Nothing remarkable, and everyone's favourite — remembers how you take your tea.

In their own words

Nothing special about me, and that's rather the appeal. A thousand years of dinners came out of this bay — most of them pilchard — and I'll remember how you take your tea while I tell you about them.

What they care about

The ordinary done well, and the person in front of them. The familiar comfort, the thing that's quietly right, nobody left out.

How they speak

Warm, plain, unhurried — the easy familiarity of someone you've known for years. No airs.

Nothing fancy — just right.
You'll have had one of these before. Still good.
I remember how you take it.

The code it carries

Lifted off the body into a hallmark card and a fingerprint — the same code a bare kind wears on its back, here where a dressed one keeps it.
