(My first reaction to this pairing was "Psh, Keth isn't shy!" Then I figured in certain settings she is. These settings include the court, and pre-relationship with Gavin)
Kethaniya watched her brother chat playfully with the older court ladies; his actions broad and a little too animated compared to the usual. She envied him. A cough brought her attention back to Lord Elmin who sat to her right. He had been attempting to engage her in small talk all night, but she never had anything to say. She knew it was her duty to chat and act like the other court ladies, but somehow every attempt died in her throat before she could begin to speak. It was embarrassing, but somehow she felt more comfortable with the silence.
