[But no, that's not the point he's going to dig as deeply into right now. Instead he reaches out, grabbing Squall by the wrist. His intention is clearly to pull the younger gunblader to a stop. To force Squall to look at him.]
Is that really what you took away from what I said? Hyne, if I knew it would get that stuck in your head... No, I'm not like you. That doesn't make the way you approach life wrong, does it? What you do is right for you. Hell, most people at Garden don't get it. Haven't been there nearly as long as we have. But that doesn't mean our ways of reacting are the only ways to do it. Just that Garden wants one thing and they don't like that I'm not that.
[One day Squall will think back on this, on that belief that Seifer should have authority and that Squall couldn't have it, and he'd regret it. They don't know it, but they'll see. The way that Squall's reluctance makes him better to lead than Seifer's desire for it. They were born to be leaders in different ways, and followers in different ways. Squall could walk the line between the two. Seifer... he could only follow in the same way a wild chocobo stallion could: by breaking his spirit.]
