[ Ori can remember a time when she felt such a way. Always longing for love, wanting that luxury of closeness, of intimacy, of having someone she could depend on and who could depend on her in turn, and unconditionally so. Growing up with only her younger sister to call family, becoming a mercenary at a young age to make ends meet, and then adventuring makes for a life that doesn't exactly lend itself to finding that, either. Always going from one job to the next, one town to the next, one crisis to the next.
Still, she can't help but see her younger self in Amber just a bit, and so Ori wraps an arm around her. She's been nothing but bright like sunshine the whole time that Ori has known her. So brave, so unafraid to be happy, a presence that fills the room no matter what... She wishes she could have been more like Amber at that age. She deserves the world. ]
If anything, they'll be the lucky ones, Amber. Someone as radiant as you? Surely. From what I can tell, many people here can use someone like that by their side. You just have to keep on being yourself.
[ Ori pats her head. ]
Chin up, okay? You're the most beautiful when you smile.
