"That's true," she says, with a soft laugh. Common ground is good advice, but she's not sure what common ground they could really have. (She's not even sure what she'd had shared with her own Zelos, come to think of it.) "He did get a kick out of me not knowing what to do with his sword, I guess. That's something." Better than nothing. She nods, cementing something like a plan of action in her mind, then stops, turning her attention back to Anna.

"Oh, um," she says. "Actually, I also meant to ask about the… sharing emotions thing? Is it always," she pauses for a moment, trying to think of the words for it. "So strong?" It's… helpful, she guesses, at least as far as knowing if something's wrong, but do blades and drivers really live like this all the time? It had felt almost like drowning, when Zelos had panicked - she's not sure she could protect him, if that happened in a fight.
