"Being a medic is a hard job, no doubt about it." She thought back to her friend the birdeating spider, and how he seemed to go about his job with ice-cold precision, but not everyone could detach themselves like that. "I think you're a great medic. But sometimes bad things happen anyway, and that's not anyone's fault."
The big answers of life, however, were not things Aya had answers to. Would that she could answer Malphas truly, but she got by a day at a time, and tried not to think so heavily on those topics. Her pale eyes cast upwards, to the stars. "You know, sport, there are uncountable amounts of suns and planets up there." She'd read books about space and the possibility of life on other planets, and it had absolutely captivated her imagination then. "Nobody can say how many other lives there are up there, but you know what I can guarantee? Everyone in the universe has or will felt loss, and suffering, and hopelessness, the way you do, and we're all going to get through it." Her ears twitched as she watched the sky. "It's part of life. So don't cut yourself off, because then you won't feel the happiness or the wonder of life either." Gosh, that was quite profound. Were those actually Aya's words?
