Hmph. You wouldn't believe how many ridiculous marriage proposals he received for me. I told him if he ever tried to force me into a marriage, I'd just go become a mercenary and let him deal with it. ...he didn't, though.
[He shakes his head.] It wasn't just that for Sylvain. I'm sure you know the Gautiers guard the border with Sreng. They expected him to defend the border because he wielded the Lance of Ruin. Even while we were busy defending the eastern Kingdom from the Empire. He didn't want to. They made him do it anyway.
[Felix tilts his head, finally looking at Claude instead of in his general direction.] Huh. I didn't know you grew up outside Fodlan. Though I guess it makes sense. If nobody cared about your Crest, what was out of your control?
[And now that he's looking...he abruptly notices how Claude's tousled curls tumble into his face and give him a...wilder look than usual. Felix's eyes widen slightly and he swallows and his hands itch to...run his fingers through Claude's hair. That's...weird. That's weird, isn't it? It just looks...ugh, it looks really good. Dammit. His fingers tighten on his crossed arms just a little.]
