[Excuse the delay in reply, Leon. This is kind of a sad topic for him.]
Why wouldn't I? This infernal place is just as capable of stealing her away from home as it is myself or any other of our classmates. She is not the sort of woman to hand your affection to, only to give that same affection to someone else simply because she isn't around. And there's no saying anything would come of it if she does arrive, but there's no point in seeking companionship in another here either. It would only end in lonesomeness if either of us were to disappear, and I wouldn't allow them to join me once we discern a way to return home.
[And not just because there's nothing back there to really go home to.]
