Uh, n-nothing. [That's a total lie. Someone's yelling in the background.]
It's just-
[More yelling and now someone's pounding on a door. Lloyd's eyes widen and he cuts off what he'd been about to say in favor of getting straight to the point.]
[Oof! Even with his Exsphere, jumping down five stories makes for a bit of a rough impact with the ground. He straightens up and casts a nervous glance back up at the window. How long would it take Zelos to break into his room and realize where he'd gone?]
What about all the inns? Or even when we camped out? That counts, too!
[He doesn't see Zelos, but he probably shouldn't stick around anyway. Lloyd jumps into the boughs of a nearby tree, the best cover he can manage until he knows where he's going to go.]
[Then he frowns in confusion.] We're not? What were you talking about?

Lloyd? [Weird.] I don't see why not. What's wrong?

Could I sleep with you tonight?

[Wait--]

[Sorry Lloyd, Sheena took it completely the wrong way.]

You are so dead, Lloyd!
[Okay, yeah, Lloyd's definitely panicking now.]
Y-yeah, I just need to get away from Zelos for a while, and I like you and we're friends, right? Friends can sleep with each other!
[Someone's really not thinking about his choice of words right now. He's actually thinking more about getting the window in his room to open.]

W-Wait, Lloyd...you're not...you--
[kill her, why don't you?]
W-We can't sleep with each other!
[Why is LLOYD going on about this all of a sudden?]

It'd just be one night, I promise! I'll find someone else to sleep with later! Please, Sheena?!

[Someone please translate this conversation...]
You can't sleep with other people!

But we slept with each other all the time back in Sylvarant!
[Success! Window opened! He's jumping out now, which means all the pounding and death threats will quickly fade out.]
What's different about it now?

We've never slept together!
[That she knows of...OH MAN she doesn't want to think about that.]
There's nothing different, because nothing ever happened!

[Oh boy.]
I don't think we're talking about the same things...

[Then he frowns in confusion.] We're not? What were you talking about?

Um...nevermind that. If you weren't talking about that, then there's no reason to be talking about it, right?
[More nervous laughter.]
