Diaval was genuinely pleased that Keyni was happy. He felt it swell in his chest as if it were his own. A foreign sensation, for someone else's happiness to feel good to him. He liked it and it did not bring with it the pang of loneliness it often did. He marveled that for only a moment - not enough time to dwell - before her voice brought his attention to her completely once again.

"That's - yeah. I would love that. Thank you..." he trailed off. Thank you didn't feel good enough, it didn't convey his feelings as strongly as they were. The gratitude he felt was enormous, it consumed him. It wasn't enough to just say it and, yet, he had no other means to communicate it. "Really, thank you. It's...thank you so much. You're amazing." it wasn't enough but it was all he had. 

There was a beat of silence and Diaval almost decided to thank her again when she asked why he was interested in plants. The eccentric light entered his eyes again and his face lit up. He didn't think at all about how his answer would sound as he told her, "I know plants can heal. Everyone knows that I think, but did you know they can kill you, too?"
