"That's my experience too. People might not last out here long if they don't." Rinoa figures it would never get that far. If someone wanted to isolate themselves, surely people would still try to get to them. She would try to get to them. But it's much easier when everyone is on the same page. "We're not just trapped here, we're kidnapped, and I hear they cause strange things sometimes?" Rinoa's brand new so she hasn't really seen it herself. She's heard a few harmless ones that don't sound too bad, but that doesn't mean they'll stay that way.

Rinoa shakes her head. "Oh, no, it's like ... let me show you." She starts miming it out. "Seifer used fire," putting out her hand, boom, "Squall was thrown off. And then Seifer went slash." She pretends to bring a sword down, and then lines up the mark on her face exactly how Squall's was. "So then Squall put his sword on the ground and whooshed it up at him, and cut Seifer the same way. Just a different angle." She doesn't seem to care that she probably seems a little silly at the moment putting on a show for him.

In truth ... forty sounds old to her. Her father is in his 40s. A lot of the people there look that age. He doesn't really, but he is tall and intimidating and maybe she can't read the age well. Edea and Cid were in their 40s, probably. She squints at him thoughtfully. "Are you talking about yourself?"
