Title: Kindred Spirits Rating: G Length: 130 words Competitor: Wyldon Round/Fight: 1/A Summary: Kel explains a new concept of soulmates to Wyldon. For one of my own kindred spirits -- He starts to speak in an awkward, hesitant manner, unlike his usual style, about soulmates and his late wife. She guesses what is playing on his mind, and so she places a finger on his lips, silencing him. "In the Islands, they don't speak of soulmates, in the manner of just two individuals destined for one another. I suppose the concept is that a soul may have many mates over time, and your love for one soul may have no bearing on your love for another, in strength or longevity. It isn't just a romantic notion for lovers either. They call it kindred spirits." He nods, his forehead smoothing out. She can tell it has worked as he gathers her hands in his, and presses a kiss to her knuckles.

How sweet. And I like that concept, that you can love more that one person, equally and differently.

Thank you! I have just realised I forgot to credit Anne of Green Gables with the kindred spirits concept, though Anne uses it in friendship terms, and I obviously was after something stronger ;D

I love this, and I love that she's the one making him understand.

So sweet! I love that Wyldon was so awkward about it, and that Kel had just the right answer for him.
