I have been.

[Ready from the start, that is. He follows her along dutifully at an easy pace, their topic brewing in his mind. However similar their experiences to one another, it's never easy to just breach.

'It's not an easy life' was his own way of deflecting the sheer brunt of the topic's weight, oversimplifying their unique brand of suffering and the trials that accompany it, but it had also been an invitation for her to elaborate, to permit him to understand. Nothing but vague and disconnected replies are forthcoming from her, and with her body language, it spells that she's not ready or capable of going into detail with him. Soren is too respectful of these boundaries to encroach upon them uninvited, for he knows how delicate the matter can be when prodded. It's deeply private and personal, Pandora's box of inner demons opened and shared. They're hers, not his, and she'd rather keep it that way.

So he stops delving into the ways their pasts run parallel. Quite a bit is already silently understood.]
