Have you ever been in love before? Was it returned?

Do you think some are meant to be alone?

(These are the thoughts she entertains when her temple is quiet and her fires burn low.)

You need not get into specifics if it is uncomfortable for you.

You are very kind. (Her hand trembles and she needs to pause to gather herself.) I do want a happy wedding and a husband I can love and trust. My parents had such a wonderful marriage. I would like one like theirs.

Jon would make a great god. He is so brave and gentle; I know he would look out for those in need.

[Kaya doesn't know what to say at first. She has no memory of her parents, or if she ever had them. She can't say if she's had siblings. She has no one to miss and can't understand the sadness in absence. Nonetheless, she's not envious and she does like the reminiscences of Sansa a lot.]

Your family sounds like amazing people! I do really hope you can meet your brother or even your parents. And I'll cross my fingers so you meet a lovely guy who can make you happy, miss. I know we just met, but I truly believe you must be gentle and deserving of love.

They wereare amazing and should they come here, they could do a lot of good for Heaven.

(The conclusion makes her throat feel tight. She blinks several times before she can reply.)

Friendship suits me for the time being. I have never had so many dear friends - and I can always add to their number.

Sorry, I forgot I had turned anon on. Since I started talking about love, I was embarrassed to say it under my name. Just wanted to say that if you want yet another friend, you can count me in! Just with this conversation it already feels like you're my friend!

[stonebird]

You needn't explain. This is a complicated subject and I do not blame anyone for wanting their identity shielded.

I would be honored. You probably would not believe how long I have gone without good friends.

[fadingsunshine]

I'd be honored, too! And if that's the case, I'm glad you now have them. It sounds so lonely it breaks my heart.

My name's Kaya, by the way! Oh wait, it says it above now. Well, it doesn't matter~
