[That does sound tempting.]

I will. In private.

[He's resigned.]

I haven't lived this long in my occupation by not learning to choose my battles.

[inemeraldfaith]

Funny how this started out as an airship question. Funny how he never answered that really to begin with. Funny how Aerith completely forgot about it.]

[inemeraldfaith]

With that agreement in place, I'll be seeing you later.

[Don't hide.]
