She doesn't say it doesn't count, because it counts for a lot, way more than just some random person enjoying her music anyway, but she thinks even if she wasn't very good, Kili would always be there to encourage her. He's really nothing at all like Hershel, but in that aspect she knows her dad would have loved Kili and appreciated everything he's done for Beth so far.

"I was sorta thinkin' I'd maybe go for a walk and get some air," she admits, grinning. "Then maybe head home. I dunno, it's been a pretty good day, I think I might wanna make it last."
