Catryn’s smile is contagious, and the tobiano finds it spreading quickly onto his mouth. She had been bold the first time he met her, but this time she is confident. She seems secure in herself as if she’s reached a deeper understanding of who she is now that she can see. Targaryen thinks he’s had a similar experience when he’d been lost during the darkness and then found his way home when the sun returned, but stupidly losing his way in the dark feels like nothing compared to what she’s experienced.
He thinks she’s right, in saying that she didn’t have a choice, but he also believes that she had chosen the best way to live in that situation. Targaryen would’ve been much more upset about his blindness than she had been. Catryn seemed to still have a spirit to live amidst her blindness, and this is perhaps where her bravery lies. He isn’t exactly sure how to put these thoughts into words, so instead, he lets his smile grow wider and steps forward to nudge her shoulder playfully. “Well, that’s the first of many compliments so, get used to it, sister.”
He laughs when she mentions repayment, cinnamon eyes warm. “You don’t need to repay me, Catryn. Besides, we still have work to do, since you haven’t flown since then.” Targaryen shakes his head, a sarcastic sign of disappointment. Her smiles and warmth buoy him up, making him feel bolder than he’s ever felt. Although he clicks his tongue with humorous shame, his eyes glow with amusement. “Interested in seeing the world from a higher place, now that you have wings and eyes?”
