The elf sat down on the bed with Kanae.  "You really mean that, don't you?  Not just what you said now, but all the stuff that you said.  About me being pretty and how I can handle myself and all that stuff, didn't you?"  There was a look on Lafiel's face that Kanae had not yet seen before.  It was...studying.  The technomancer had looked at the shaman several times, but she'd never studied the other girl.
