...Tieria told me something very different. [ He spoke slowly. The anger almost seemed to have drained away entirely, Lockon was so wrong-footed.
This was crazy. If it had been anyone else, just about anyone else at all saying this, Lockon would have laughed this off already. Tieria had kept Lockon back to protect him? Out of love? Sure, Tieria keeping him off the battlefield had a precedent, but that was a situation with extenuating circumstances if there ever was one. And Tieria had been very...clear, about his reasons, even if they'd been ridiculous. Right? And yet Lockon just kept coming up against Setsuna's completely serious face, and trying to fit 'romantic misinterpretation' into the same thought as Setsuna was essentially slamming a heart-shaped peg fruitlessly against a total lack of hole.
And he realised that Tieria hadn't said anything for a while. He hadn't even told Setsuna he was wrong. Why hadn't he done what he usually did when Nena or Mileina started this sort of thing on the community...? He turned, slowly, half expecting to see that death glare from before having become speechless fury or something like that, but Tieria's expression knocked him for another six. That glare - that was anger, yeah, but...definitely not the anger of someone sick of ridiculous libel. Tieria was even backing away. What was going on...? Tieria wasn't supposed to be making Setsuna's theory look downright plausible, that wasn't how this worked...! ]
