[He thinks about it. He doesn't get embarrassed, but he doesn't think that's right.]

No... not really. Never mind.

[princessia]

[ Now she's wondering the reason for that question. ]

Does your face ever get hot around anyone?

[killedwithlove]

[Cole pauses and then nods.]

Sorey.

[princessia]

Huh? Sorey?

[ Elize was aware that the two had met and she's happy for it. She quite fond of Sorey and enjoys having him as a friend.

Now that she thinks about it, if it wasn't embarrassment that he was speaking of, then- ]

My face felt warm when I first met Jude. I don't think I was embarrassed that time. I was... happy.

[killedwithlove]

[Cole nods and hums and looks off somewhere else.]

Yes. Happy. He says nice things about me just because he thinks them.

[princessia]

Is that your first time your face felt warm when someone said nice things about you?

[killedwithlove]

Mm, yes. I can't think of it ever happening before.

[princessia]

[ Jude was her very first, real friend and meeting him is one of her happiest memories. She might have started to harbor a minor crush on Jude around that time. Not only around Jude, but there were instances she'd feel similarly around Milla.

Thoughtful, she focuses back on her paper and resumes coloring, using another shade of pink to fill out the other side of the paper. ]

I bet you really enjoy being around Sorey.

[killedwithlove]

Yes, I do. But... he doesn't need me.

Varric told me I should talk to people who don't need me, let them see me and I started doing that, and it was... nice. But sometimes I still feel like I should be finding people who need help, not doing things for me.

[princessia]

Can't you do both? Find people who need help and don't?

[killedwithlove]

I... suppose so.

[princessia]

There's nothing wrong with doing both.

[ A thoughtful pause as she looks over her markers, then picks up another shade of pink. She's almost about done coloring in her paper. ]

The people who don't really "need" you might like that you're giving them company. If they're already happy, they can be happier with you around. I think that's kind of like helping too!

[killedwithlove]

That was something that Varric said, when we were getting to know each other. When we were all getting to know each other.

I like that idea. I can make people happier just by being with them. Like with you.

[princessia]

Yes. I'm much, much happier!

[ To reaffirm the fact with her own words, which she probably doesn't need to. The happiness can easily be read right off her.

After filling in one final blank edge on her paper with pink, she holds it up. Now to put it back together with the pin. ]

All done!
