Waylon: Truth! Do you wish Rosmond spoke more?

“I guess I wouldn’t mind more from him, but in actual application, I wouldn’t want him to change. He says more than he realizes with his body, and I’ve learned to read him fairly well I’d think. 

I don’t need Rosmond to say things out loud to have him tell me things, and he seems to like to listen, so I don’t mind talking for us both.”

Adrik: Truth! Do you feel that Vincent has matured since you first met him? Is that what you want?

“Vincent, matured?” Adrik chuckled a low vibration through his chest. “No, he is as childish as ever,” his smile is subtle, but genuine. “Perhaps Vincent is a little... more reighned in? But that is not saying much, and that is not a bad thing. 

I am glad my words did not change him, for those were words of a skeptical man, one afraid of an attachment with someone so young. Why should he waste his time on one such as me? There are many who would find him attractive and desirable, who would entertain his wildest fancy, yet he waited for me during my travels. 

He waited for an old bear who gave him barely a promise of return, and yet his joy was not to be subdued. I prefer Vincent just as he is.”

Theo: Truth! Do you approve of Xavier's hunting?

“Of course not. Having gone through it myself, I wouldn’t want anyone else to experience that, and by rights, I should have killed Xavier a long time ago purely based on what he is and given my profession. 

Now I’m engaged to him, and have had plenty of time to accept that I love him and it makes him an exception for me as a hunter. I’ve suggested Xavier pick targets deserving of death, not innocents like I had essentially been, but I’m not about to police what he does. 

I’m also not going to waste time examining and beating myself up over the hypocracy of it. I guess I’m breaking some sort of unspoken code as a hunter, but at least I’ve accepted that. I wouldn’t have accepted his ring, or given him one of my own if I hadn’t accepted that already. He loves me and makes me happy, and I enjoy who I am with him around. I don’t approve, but it stops there. That’s enough for me.”

Truth: Did you ever meet somebody that made you wish you weren't immortal?

Truth 3/5

"No," he answers with confidence. "I haven't."

A pause, and his shoulders slump. "And yet, I..."

Minfilia, Cid, Tataru, Merlwyb, Raubahn...gods...can he grant the twins their birthright as Archons without their grandfather? What if he can't?

....Not something to think about.

What are some of you guilty pleasures nobody knows about? Time to spill!

Truth 2/5

"--I..."

Oh, well. But again, compelled to speak the truth. "...Sleep. A good wine. Ridiculously sweet things--" A flustered pause. "They've a rare occurrence in my life, I-- appreciate them when I get them..." Pauses again. "I don't...have much else. 'Tis simple to please me."

How do you feel about Viola?~ Tell us the whole truth, now.

Truth 1/5

"I..." Compelled to tell the truth, now; he couldn't exactly hide anything, and the words happen whether he wants them to or not.

"She is everything to me. For all these long years I have been alive, she has been with me...through everything, both the good and the ill. My one constant. I...cannot think of a world without her. 'Twould be a painful one...an empty one. I wouldst do anything to keep her safe from harm; and she has my utmost trust and faith. I..."

He stops, almost unconsciously lifting a hand to brush fingers against lips, mind elsewhere for the moment.

"I...love her, 'tis...'tis simple enough."

If you could, would you go back and change history? All the things you regret, all the sadness, if you could make it go away.... would you?

Truth 5/5

"...." [/He's silent, staring off into space for a moment.] 

"....Yes. Thou mayest call me selfish for that; I will not deny such an accusation. The things I did, the things I helped do...they were part of what changed the face of Eorzea forever. I helped bring about the Sixth Umbral Era. If I could...erase that....make it so I never made any of my mistakes..."

[/He sighs.] "I would never have met Master Louisoix, I would like have died a very, very long time ago...I would never have had such people in my life as the Archons and the twins...I would regret that very much, to lose those people..." [/A pause.] 

"But I would rather them live in a world without the scars of what my actions brought about, even if it were without me...if I could make it so."
