Stubborn asses.

[You're in good company there, Kingmaker.]

I think that's the first time I've been called that. Congratulations?

[An award all its own!!]

Wow. I thought for sure someone would've got there before me, but I won't complain about winning that race. I've been called that before though, so it's not like it's a bad thing, it just means that you're loyal to yourself.

[And that's better than being wishy-washy and wanting to please everyone.]

Yes, that's definitely true.

...Was that the last of your questions?

Of course not! We haven't even gotten to the best one yet! You didn't think you'd get out of this so easily, did you?

[Silly Kingmaker. Silly, silly Kingmaker.]

What's your most embarrassing memory?

[Oh, of course. How silly of him.]

...I'm not going to answer that one. But you probably expected that, didn't you?

I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours.

You don't seem like the sort to get embarrassed.

It's such a foreign feeling I didn't realize what it was until I had to tell someone my embarrassing moment.

[And even then it's like?? An awkward discomfort. Embarrassment is weird.]

... But you're right, this is pretty much the first place I've felt it. Not sure that I like it.

Hmm...

[He's quiet for a moment, thinking that over.]

...I haven't really experienced it.

Good, never do. It's horrible but I keep doing things that'll make me feel embarrassed anyway because, I don't know, there's a good thing that comes out of it even if I feel like I'd rather be in the mouth of a giant than wherever I am at that second.

[Death, she can handle.

Embarrassment... Apparently not.]

[it sure does sound very difficult...!!]

I'll be sure to keep that in mind...

[It is the most difficult????]

Okay, last one, I guess. [...] Two more. What's your most treasured memory?

[she didnt tell her embarrassing moment CALL HER OUT ON IT]

[NAH IT'S OKAY he didn't have one to tell her so it's only fair!!]

My most treasured memory... hmm. I think it would have to be some of the time I spent with my friend. I have a lot of great memories with him, but...

Well, it's not important now.

What's yours?

[what a kind soul!!!

Also... Aww. Kingmaker really had a friend once. That's so cute.]

... A good question. I have a lot of memories one can treasure, I guess, but it's hard to decide what's my most treasured memory.

[Since a lot of it is carnage, for the most part.]

Being out at sea? A couple of the older guys would put me on the dragon's head when I was younger, and I always had a lot of fun with that. Or maybe it was that first giant kill I told you about. Getting my first gun? I don't really know how to measure this.

It's pretty difficult, isn't it? There are a lot of memories I'm fond of too.

Besides the ones with your friend? I guess if you were around people before whatever, it makes sense you'd have a lot of them... Even if you're you.

What was he like? Even if it's not important now, I'm interested in who could've dealt with such a stubborn ass.

[And we're back to joking.]

He was even more stubborn than me, if you can believe that. Once he had his mind set on something, there was no stopping him. I liked that about him though; we made a pretty good team.

Sounds like a good person to me, and a better friend. What would his title be? Since I figure you wouldn't give a name if I asked.

[Both to figure the kind of person he could be and to not have to refer to him as "your friend" all the time.]

He doesn't have a title.

[He slams down on that a little hard and he quickly amends it.]

It doesn't matter anyway. Is there anything else, Boundless?

[Y i k e s.]

I only asked would. But no, not really. I guess.

-- Wait. During the trial, did you get mad at us for taking too long or something else?

I wasn't mad, but it's not important.

You totally sounded mad and it's important to me 'cause we're... friends. I guess. You're not that bad of a person.

[she says a day before taichi gets blown up]

So? Still nothing?

[THAT'S GONNA BE REAL FUNNY IN ABOUT A DAY, ISN'T IT...]

...Well, it's nice of you to consider me a friend, I guess. But it really wasn't anything for you to worry about.

[YEAAAAH. YEAH IT IS. EXPECT ANOTHER SOON.]

If you're sure. I mean, I'd say you can call me anytime if something's bothering you, but this is pretty one way, isn't it.
