Ky hesitated. She was getting tired of talking to Emery. And yet her avoidance very much didn't want to go look for Tomhas yet. "...fine... will you tell everyone that I did, if I do? Prove I'm eating or whatever? Since apparently now my diet is a spectator sport."

"Wonderful," she said flatly, but shuffled down the hall towards the kitchen. It was as well as could be hoped, she supposed. If he was going to be talking about her, may as well let him report that she was exercising and eating. That would make everyone stop, right? Force them to give her room to breathe? They could hope.

"I feel the same way. It's really refreshing, though. And it's one of the few things from my childhood that I remember truly fondly."

"Very," he agreed. "You don't have much of anything without good memories. They give you hope of better things, you know?"

Ky shrugged. "I don't know. She's playing the let's-coddle-Ky game, too. I don't feel like I've got an accurate read on any of you these days -- just how you feel about me, not life in general."
