Well that was depressing ... But if there was some connection between the names and where horses supposedly went then Kaine didn't understand it and she was far too pleasantly buzzed to care. It sounded nice, being that close and interconnected with someone but she couldn't pretend to fully take in the entire meaning, not when she had spent so much of her life alone. And it was ironic that he brought up Nariko just as she thought that!
Snorting gently, Kaine shook her head. "This is why I don't get - why you're so worried about it? Men sort of terrify me but Roland's not really that bad but he's not, ahh," She waved both hands, trying to make some kind of gesture that might explain her thoughts. "You're all like this," She put both hands together in an empty circle as if that would clearly explain ka/an-tet, "But then she's over here, this way," One hand freed itself from a ring to becoming her two first fingers, greatly separated from her other hand. "Roland will always be this," ka/an-tet, "While Nariko will always be this." She waved her fingers around a little but they didn't go near the other hand until both dropped in a full shrug.
"One from many doesn't sound like something that can ever be fractured or even taken away from. Maybe something changes, but that's not the same as losing. Everyone changes. But people like Nariko and I don't get to be ka-anything. She's said as much multiple times, especially in the context of you and Roland. I can't say I don't agree with her."
