"It is my favorite here. I just don't know if I have a favorite between my tree and the trees at home..." They were actually very similar, and she had ties to both. So it wasn't that she didn't think it was possible to have a favorite... it was just that thinking about it, she wasn't sure there was one she felt more strongly about than another.
Then he was moving on, and Amnesia blinked in surprise at the complete change in questioning, though she seemed to take it seriously, going quiet for several long moments as she seemed to search her memory.
"I... don't know," she finally admitted. "When Amaryllis called you my boyfriend and you explained what it was and said we weren't that, I knew I loved you, and it hurt that you didn't feel the same way because I'd just thought you did, for some reason... But I know I loved you before then. When that demon hurt you the first time, when you showed up in the forest leaking and then tried to say you were fine and focus on me back when you first learned about Amaryllis... maybe even when you gave me the hoodie to keep me warm, even though I didn't need it... I think I've loved you a long time and just didn't know it. I can't think of when it happened though."
Amnesia nodded. While she didn't like the way they argued and fought with one another, she also knew that was just how it was. She couldn't just say they wouldn't, and it would happen that way. While she didn't know the exact history of what had happened to bring them to this point, she'd been around them enough to know how they were. Maybe she'd be able to help things a little by changing the way Khal saw James, but also...
"You have to stop trying to work him up on purpose though!" There was only so much progress that could be made by talking to Khal. James had to work on it too.
She smiled as he reutrned her kiss and her words. "I think that sounds like a good idea," she agreed.
