And then, looking thoughtful, she paused. "I'm not sure there is anything you can say or do. I don't remember everything all that well. I just know I was scared. I didn't know how to deal with my immortality and commitment just seemed so..." she scoffed, "From my point of view it's so stupid. But to a younger version of myself, it makes perfect sense."
She looked at Gar. "I've always loved you, you know. Even when I didn't say it or was with someone else."
