She can be trusted, huh?

[It's obvious from Reno's tone he's not so inclined to believe it.]

Sorry, Zelda, you know I respect ya but I don't know anything about this Aria, and I got a lot of reservations about Dax's agenda in the first place. I don't got anything but people's word and it seems like people've been keeping the fact she's even existed from me.

[His gaze doesn't waver, looking out around this floor and taking in everything he could for later mapping.]

What makes ya think she'll be any less dangerous than Jason himself? Is she the one that's been bombin' the Tower?

[sageprincess]

No.

[Her own expression loses some of its energy, the tiredness in her eyes that has become so common returning, but she remains confident in her words.]

We kept her secret because we did not want to risk losing the only ally on the inside we can count on left. I understand very well people will likely have problems with that, but it is what we all thought was right.

If you do not trust my word, I ask where you think we got the equipment to study the collar fluid. Enoch's entire team was killed for him to bring back a single vial from the assault on the administrative levels in July. There is no possible way we could have retrieved that much materiel from their levels ourselves.

I have faith. If I did not when presented with that box of microchips, I cannot say if things would be any different now that they were when you and I first arrived here. But if faith is not enough for you, all I ask is that you do not hurt her.

[midgarhorizon]

Sorry, Zelda. I'm just sayin' this because I've run on faith before, and got to see my entire orga- my family, except for Rude and Tseng, get vaporized right in front of me.

[It wasn't until later he had discovered they were all alive, but for those few months between, it had been one of the hardest parts of his life.]

I understand you did what you had to.

[sageprincess]

Thank you, for giving me that much.

[It's more than she deserves, though she cannot say as much. She cannot falter in her convictions, not now, in what seems to be the calm before the storm.]

And I understand your skepticism. Quite honestly, I am expecting those who believe me to be in the minority.

[midgarhorizon]

We don't have much of a choice, but I'm not goin' in with my eyes closed. Too many people are relying on me.

[If it was just him, he would throw caution to the wind and do whatever he could, but family and friends tempered his impulses. He feels the weight on his shoulders.]

After all the deception in this place, can ya blame me?

[sageprincess]

[She offers a wan smile, but doesn't comment on Reno's being relied upon.

Oh, she knows that weight all too well.]

No. That is precisely why I am expecting most to view me with suspicion.

[midgarhorizon]

It's not your fault, Princess. Riku told me all about their spying efforts. I get it. I'd do the same damn thing if I thought gettin' it out there would wind up in the wrong hands.
