...suppose I know what you mean. Haven't had anything like that since Aren, myself-- haven't wanted to. But seeing them is still-

It's good that they have each other the way they do, it really is, but I'd be lying if I said I weren't jealous of Lin and Bixing especially.

[to have someone like that even in death, to keep them close-- it stings, at times, when death separated him from his own other half and sent him somewhere he's certain aren would never be. if they had to be here at all... they're lucky for it.]
