Rinoa wasn't going to argue with him about his perceptions. She knew she wasn't flirting so it didn't really matter what other people thought.

That idea was interesting though. "You're not wrong about the fighting. I can't really count on my projectiles here. Even if Mr. Stark would make them, I'm not always going to have a distance." Rinoa only vaguely knew how to fight, so she was easy pretty when it came down to it. She didn't train like they did. "I'll probably have to insist he not take it easy on me. Otherwise we might as well be having a pillow fight." Squall and Seifer treated her at times like she was made of glass, so it was probably going to take some stubbornness on her part. Which she had in spades.

"Thanks, Nida. That's definitely a better job than going to the dojo. I wasn't so sure I wanted to learn from a stranger."
