Maeve
The how really didn't matter in the grand scheme of things. What mattered was that they had met. That there was a spark and a connection. It was something. No matter how small and fragile that much be. Maeve nods slowly at his words, pursing her lips because he was ultimately right. "I know that you don't have memories of your past relationships, but do you think it was always going to be Ronin for you? Once you met did it just make sense? She asks softly, looking up at him with bright eyes as she draws her blankets up around her.
Then the conversation turns back to Sunjata and she braces herself to hear a hard truth. Remi doesn't sugar coat. He's honest and clear about his thoughts on the matter, voicing something she already knew in her heart. "I know I can't help how I feel. Things have just been so hard for him. I don't want to make it harder. Not when I told him that it wouldn't be anything more than this." That she could do this without developing feelings. That she was just a friend helping out a friend and getting him through this time without Nate. She sighs softly, brows knitting together as her eyes close, "I don't want that to happen to him. I care about Jata. A lot. I want him to be happy and if that means that it's just with me as a friend and nothing more... Well, I'll just have to accept that." Maeve looks back up at him, a faint smile on her lips. There wasn't anything else to be done for it.
He laughs and her smile grows. He's right about this too, of course. Maeve doesn't want an easy love. She wants real love. Sure, all that other stuff is wonderful and she'd like to have it, but she wants the in between. The day in and day out that comes with tying your heart to someone else's. "To be fair, sex for breakfast is wonderful. Can't really blame them for that."

I admit that I'm a little messed up
but I can hide it when I'm all dressed up
