[Seifer's been rather quiet since Irvine swung by and picked him up, a little unsure of how to approach the Hexadragon in the room. It was somewhat daunting, to say the least, to be peacefully recovering from what could qualify as serious trauma when all of a sudden he was transferred to a place where he'd done even worse things and he can't

[There's a mixture of anxiety and anticipation on Rinoa's face as she finds somewhere quiet for them to sit down and chat.]
You know, when I saw you... I wasn't sure whether to tell you or not. Because you don't remember, and it would be selfish of me to put all that on your shoulders... But I guess the cat's out of the bag, so...
The last time I saw you when we were here before, we were in Alexandria. Ultimecia was controlling me... And you were my knight. You went into the castle to hold off anyone who might come to stop me, while I went up right to the top to find the Queen... and kill her.
After that, I woke up in a cell. I heard that you were imprisoned too, but I never got to see you. I wanted to... I wanted to ask when she got to you. How willing you were. I don't think - I don't blame you for any of it, but - I think I might have helped to push you into it.

The talking remark earns him a punch on the arm, but gets another smile out of her at least.]
I guess it's okay for me to carry on then.

Alexandria, huh? I think Puberty-boy said something about that, now that you mention it.
Speaking of which, how are things with you and Leonhart, anyways?
