[Lorenz said primly, looking at Felix with quiet confusion written on his features. Out of everyone, Lorenz felt that Felix was one of the ones who understood what Lorenz was working toward. Cooperation was all he asked-- not necessarily friendship between everyone.

All I was suggesting is that we see each other as we are right here and now, not the versions of each other that we have in our memories. I know for a fact that you are not the Felix that came to the Alliance seeking answers and purpose in the aftermath of everything that happened over the course of the last five years; Likewise, I am not that person who was manipulated onto the battlefield by machinations that were beyond his reach to ultimately be felled by someone who had been akin to a friend in another time.
[Hefting the training sword in his hand, Lorenz stepped onto the platform of the makeshift training hall that Felix had seen constructed.]
...We both seek a sense of control, correct? Let us find it here.
