Ah. I do admit, we are fortunate - no bad blood among the group of us five. None of us killed one another or were involved in anything of the sort. Otherwise, I'm certain it gets a bit awkward.

[but she nods.]

So far, that has been what I've been hearing.

He did take it surprisingly well, given everything, but - yeah. Awkward is a word for it.

[he nods.]

It'd be nice if we didn't have anyone to bring back by the end of this since everyone turned out fine, but... I'm pretty sure none of us really expect that to happen at this point.

[outsidebones]

No. And I do maintain that it isn't healthy to presume that death is reversible, as a general rule, even if you have born witness to exceptions.

[agleam]

...Right. Definitely better safe than sorry, with something like that.

[outsidebones]

No complacency, when it comes to matters of life and death.

[agleam]

Right. I think it's a good thing to hope for it... But that's not really the same as assuming it'll definitely happen.

[outsidebones]

Tell me something. The people you know from your school...what do you think of them? Do you believe them to be of decent character?

[agleam]

[he nods.]

I do, yeah. I didn't get to know Hope and Alphinaud too well, so I can't really vouch for them completely, but I never saw them acting cruel or anything. Bradley and Aikawa... are both a little unpredictable for different reasons, but they can both be really nice, too. Claude's a good person, too.
