"Proud and shy," Rönn concluded. "His wife help maybe? Or someone? He not only one in castle."
"The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." -Karis Nemik
Ky didn't understand how you could both be proud and shy at the same time. Weren't those conflicting qualities? "She's trying to keep the peace between us... I feel bad for her... she said she wants to 'fix' me, but I don't think I'm fixable at this point."

"Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe you someone different now. Ask questions and maybe you figure out what to do."

He shrugged. "Why Ash never say what he mean, words like that."

Ky snorted. "You think I should go up to Gaius and ask him why he never says what he means?"
"u and rina are systematically watering down the grammar of yws" - Atticus "From the fish mother to the fish death god." - lehmanf "A fish stole my identity. I blame shady" - Omni [they/he]
"Yes." He nodded. "Or ask other person. There always reasons somewhere."

Ky looked at him skeptically. "I feel like that conversation won't end pretty."

"Then find other ways. Or give up and accept that he always confusing you for no reason at all." He raised his head, listening again.

(I looked for this for an embarrassingly long time lol all of the keywords failed me -- BUT I found the scene I was referring to, although poorly paraphrased since I haven't seen the movie in well over a decade at this point lol but I feel like this little snippet gives of Ky/Rönn vibes https://youtu.be/Hzin81VyoZE?t=140 )
Ky breathed a heavy sigh. She had given up. And she was pretty sure Gaius was mad at her for that, too.
But her attention locked on Rönn's body language. "What?"

(My roommate is here and my earbuds are far away but I will watch that tomorrow)
"Listening. Closer now, still coming this way." His ears flicked again. "How long we out here now? Minutes?"
"The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." -Karis Nemik
Ky tensed, looking at the woods. "I don't know... how close? Is it coming here? Why is it coming here? What does it want?"
"u and rina are systematically watering down the grammar of yws" - Atticus "From the fish mother to the fish death god." - lehmanf "A fish stole my identity. I blame shady" - Omni [they/he]
"I think it passing through. Not sure what it want, but with trolls they usually hungry. Maybe hour away now. Moving fast."

"They're mean?" Ky shrank despite herself. Could she get another deer in the next hour? She doubted it. People would have questions.

"This one." He nodded. "Big, too." He rose. "We lose no more time with talking, you go inside now and go to bedroom. Go to sleep, don't look out window for awhile or you never sleeping again."

I wonder if people felt the freedom in our culture to love louder, if they'd be quicker to say "I miss you" when the absence of someone is felt instead of just thinking it. — soundofmind
