"Always," she promises, without a moment's thought. Never would she let any son or daughter of hers feel anything less than that. She looks to Methos, her eyes meeting his as she smiles. "Just as I love you." She doesn't hold back in saying it, she doesn't have to anymore, and when he's past the point of not knowing, she'll never pass an opportunity to remind him how important he is to her. Not just anybody can keep River coming back time and time again, that makes him very special indeed.
