| Squall: |

"You'll be with Zell Dincht, quite a lively fellow." (Quistis)
"Lively? He's just loud. Can't I switch members?"
"I'm afraid that's not possible." (Quistis) |
| |
"I would never have guessed he was serious about it." (Quistis)
(That guy's always serious. You should know that by now...)
"What's going to happen to Seifer?" (Quistis)
"He may already be dead."
"How can you be so casual? I feel... sorry for him!" (Rinoa)
(...Feel sorry? Seifer would hate to hear that...)
"I still hope he's alive!" (Rinoa)
(Think what you want... Reality isn't so kind. Everything doesn't work out the way you want it to.
That's why...) As long as you don't get your hopes up, you can take anything... You feel less pain. Anyway,
whatever wish you have is none of my business." |

|
(So the sorceress's name's Edea. Edea...) |
| |
"So like... Is it true that SeeDs aren't supposed to question their missions?" (Irvine)
(There are times I'd like to know myself. Like... now for example. But...) "Why do you care?"
"So like... if you knew that your enemies were pure evil, you'd get more fired up to fight them, right?" (Irvine)
(...An enemy that is pure evil? Right or wrong are not what separate us and our enemies. It's our different standpoints,
our perspectives that separate us. Both sides blame one another. There's no good or bad side. Just two sides holding
different views.) |

"I will now hand the mic over to our new leader, Squall." (Nida)
"A speech...? Forget it. Cut the mic!"
[Rinoa giggles] |
| |
|
(Leader? I never asked to be the leader. I've had it up to here with this
leader thing... Alright, alright... I'll choose.) |
| |
"Greeting, commander!" (Quistis, Xu, Nida)
"Don't call me that!" |
| |
(I liked him... wasn't really a bad guy. He was one of us...
... You've become just a memory. Will they...
Will they talk about me this way if I die, too? Squall was this and that. Using past tense, saying whatever
they want? So this is what death is all about... Not for me. I won't have it!!!)
"I won't have it! I'm not having anyone talk about me in the past tense!" |
| |
(That's the way it goes as a SeeD. You can't choose your enemies...)
"I may end up killing Seifer."
"You're both... prepared, right? That's the kind of world you live in. You've had a lot
of emotional training. But... Of course, I'd rather it not happen..." (Rinoa) |
| |
"What happened to the Master?" (Quistis)
"Forget about it for now."
"I can't believe you said that. I think what just happened is really serious." (Rinoa)
"What's the point of talking about it now!? You don't know what's going on, either! This is crazy. I don't know
what's going on anymore. I feel like a helpless puppet being manipulated in some major scheme." |
| |
|
(No turning back now.) Forget about the past! She's our enemy now! Don't think
twice for a second. There's now way we can fight her like that. I, for one, can't. She chose to fight, and
became our enemy. We choose to fight back. We have no choice. At least I'd like to think so." (Seems like I'm
the only one confused...) |
| |
|
(I guess that's how it goes. Friend or foe... It all comes down to circumstances.
That's how we were raised. It's... nothing special. Nothing special... Is that true? Then... what is it I'm feeling?)" |
| |
|
"Sis... Where'd'yoo go? Yoo don't like me anymore? Sis? I'm... all alone.
But I'm doing my best... I'll be ok without you, Sis. I'll be able to take care of myself." [Squall as a child]
(... I didn't turn out ok at all.) [Squall adult] |
| |
"You can't handle everything on your own. We want you to talk to us a little
more. That's all. I know it's not easy but I wish you would trust us and rely on us a little more." (Rinoa)
(Am I that untrusting...? Maybe I'm this way because I'm scared. Nothing lasts in this world. It feels great to
have friends who believe in you, and adults you can rely on. That's why it's so dangerous, especially if you
become used to it. Someday you're bound to lose everything. Everybody around you will be gone. Then what are
you left with? Nothing. Nobody... It's so miserable. And it's inevitable. It's so hard to recover from something
like that. I never ever want to deal with that again. I can't. Even if it means being alone...) [lost in thoughts]
"I don't get it. What's going on?" (Rinoa)
(Huh!? What? Oh, me?) "Sorry about that. So... are we finished here?"
"Wait! You're not gettin' off that easy. You still owe me an answer." (Rinoa)
(Answer for what...? Oh...) "Fine. I'll ask for help when I really need it. I'll try to trust everybody more
often. Ok?"
"What is your problem!? Why do you have to be like that!? Are you mad or something? Tell me you are, because
this really can't be you!" (Rinoa)
"I'm sorry."
"You're not sorry! You just wanna get the hell out of here, that's all! Geez! Why does it have to be like this!?
Why!?" (Rinoa) [runs away]
(...Oh well. This won't change anything... I think I was honest. I prefer to be alone, right? ... Yeah...) |

|
(But the past is the past... it's over, done
with.) "Despite what truth we find, it's not going to change the present." |
