"I expected Cid would either blow Rinoa off, or assign a SeeD team with experience," Seifer snapped. Sending in recent SeeDs who didn't even know the area had seemed stupid at worst. In fact, he's even more offended now because of the ones that were sent. "At least he could have sent Nomura, given he's from the area. But no, he sent you, Chickenwuss, and a chick that neither of you really knew. What Hyne, guy seemed off his rocker."

And if he was about to lose his home, at least he could help people that needed it, right? But of course it had bitten him in the ass.

"I wasn't coming back either way. So it doesn't matter," he says at last, looking away from Squall's intent gaze. "And for all you know she took the true parts of me. How can you be sure?"

Seifer feels like he's a horrible person, after everything. Maybe he always had been.
