Your question What is the kindest accurate thing to say?

The spread

  1. The rim Snake A change of skin, and information arriving sideways. What to avoid: A warning read as a threat.
  2. The middle Crown Recognition, authority, and the attention that comes with both. What to avoid: A title held without the work.
  3. The bottom Bird News arriving in a small, quick form. A message, not a letter. What to avoid: Gossip mistaken for information.
