That sentiment...yes, I think I can agree with it. I believe there's an old phrase I heard Scarlet say once...how did it go...
The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb, I believe? Which is to say that a bond forged from your friendships with others...they are no less important, than that of blood. And sometimes, they even end up more important to you.
[Dorothy's smile is warm in it's entirety, and she knows she isn't staying here; it's likely something that's come up, but...]
When we're done here, I'll see if I cannot ask the boys to stick around just a little longer--or perhaps I will stay and catch up. I want to see some of the fun things this world has in store when it is not under the thrall of that Neo individual. And I would like to treat you a bit and see what sort of things we could do.
But I am so very happy to consider you my family, dear.
