"She saved my life that night," he says quietly. "Probably. I didn't deserve it either."
He doesn't say she died for it too, even though it took longer, even though Gized has never had the opportunity to yell at him about it.
"I was always boring her with games. She was a straightforward soul, but she put up with me." Good-humored, as well as indomitable, with the particular level-headed sort of brilliance that makes an excellent administrator.

"Eliot turned up here, and immediately got laid. I woke up naked with a stranger, that was fun."
