"If you think it's bad now just wait I haven't even gotten started." He smirks.
Sorry, Nida, he does look apologetic after saying it. In a lot of ways he needs it to be real too. There are people who, for some reason he still can't fathom, care about him. After all the years of trying so desperately to matter to someone, somehow, he finally had it. Tony Stark cared, for some reason, let him think for himself. Anne also looked after him even after watching some of what he'd done. Why? He didn't know, but it felt good to not be left out in the cold again. Tossed aside like garbage. Easy to forget and easy to brush off once he was gone. Maybe he really could matter here.
Maybe they can both be people here. Even if it is fake, he'd rather stay. It's real enough to them.
His attention turns back to Nida, genuinely surprised. "He cared? Squall had a fucking reaction?" He can't believe it. Mister never responds to anything, he'd have expected Squall to have taken the news the coldest. Their dying was a given, wasn't it? Maybe he was wrong about Squall. "Sure the rest of 'em were glad to hear I was outta their hair." He growls. No, Seifer doesn't have the most charitable view of anyone. Maybe Rinoa cared, she said she did he had no reason to disbelieve her. Zell was probably delighted.
A snort and he looked away. Back to his cooking like he suddenly needed to pay really close attention because reasons. Nida figured it out before he did. "I didn't remember it. Just another scar. But watching it like that..." So that's what his delightful broadcast had been about. Watching himself die. "Pathetic." Even worse that she'd used Rinoa to do it.
