[Mia can't help but smile in a way that makes her eyes look almost misty, gone, remembering things in Maya's face that were once there but have now grown.]
When you were born, you were even the strongest cryer in the village.
[She teases, that smile spreading across her face. Every time she is faced with her sister, she is reminded how just weeks ago Maya was across a veil, impervious to her touch. Following Nick and hope and her own intuition with Mia only able to watch when she's able, and participate if called, in a body that usually kept her even further from her sister.]
You're the biggest reason I could become a lawyer. What would I ever have done without you?
[Without Maya, she'd probably still be in Kurain, bound to her fate-- or dead by other means. And who would want to live through Morgan alone?]
