you know i never would have expected that.
i'll give him credit for one thing, he's stubborn.
figured he would have insisted on that loyalty until the very end.
but still it's... good to know more people aren't dead. i get the feeling there were a lot of bodies by the end of the war.
one less is a blessing, even if it was lorenz.

take it from me claude
even when parents suck and have terrible ideals its still really hard to break from them
hells, maybe you know that too, i don't know your business.
but... i do know what it's like to have a terrible dad with a horrible sense of what his children must do.

isn't that how war always works, though?
each opposing side has all of the same information and thinks they're doing the right thing.
just sometimes someone else gets a way different result.
sucks but... this is just the way of history.

You say that, but you'd be wrong. I've had to command my own men -- Gautier men -- over the last five years. My father might give the order to defend the border, but at the end of the day, it's me in the thick of it telling them to charge forward or retreat, to make a pincer or do something else.

It's not quite the diplomacy that you are referencing, but don't count me out as having to not worry about it.

I think you're just making a mountain out of a molehill. Everybody has massive decisions to make. And hell, maybe it's worse just being in charge of a battalion. Think about it -- our decisions are going to weigh on you in the end. If we make a bad call, it goes back to Dimitri, who made a bad call as well by putting me in that role.

I think it's apples to oranges in the end, but there are some similarities. And there is a lot of weight that comes with any position like that.

But I'm not offended. Mostly.
