He doesn't remember doing anything spectacular - of course he doesn't. "That's what makes you..." he trails off with a fond, soft sort of sigh. "That's why I'm so drawn to you."
Rama is spectacular even while doing perfectly ordinary things. The way he acts is considerate and with careful thought. He's loyal to a fault, quiet in his observations and astute in what connections he tries to make. This place is unfamiliar and horrifying at times, but Rama has always been courageous in the face of it, unwilling to give up even when the odds are stacked against him.
"That day you asked to pay your respects. You didn't cast judgement or think my efforts silly or without merit; you understood enough to let me have my mourning, and joined me in it, and then not long after you had me laughing and smiling again. That's...it's..." He trips over his own tongue; he has so much to say to him, and yet he struggles to find the words. He felt it, that's all he knows.
"You've seen all sides of me, and never once spurned me. I was smitten."
