Going to be sixteen soon, actually. I was fourteen going on fifteen when I got to Deerington. So in a way, that makes this even more sad.

[Honestly, there had been too much going on in Deerington in her life that she would have had time for anything resembling romance. She had no idea how most people managed it in the first place].

How I am? If that were true, wouldn't someone have said something about it a while ago? For all I know, they might just be used to me being friendly with everyone.

[Again, not aimed at anyone specific].

Not anyone who's here. There was someone back in the isles I only realize being here I really liked, and that person may have been showing me feelings I didn't understand at the time. Really kinda regret that now.
