Guy sighed, ran a hand through his hair, not looking up or over at his companion. He should have been thinking of ways to help relocate the replicas, or more up his alley, solutions to the energy problem provided by the end of the Planet Storm.

But he couldn't entirely argue away that there was a point in Asch's ideals as well ( ... )

Guy didn't need Jade's reasons, as interesting as he might have found them.

In a way it was almost relaxing, not to see clearly what Jade thought of things. It wasn't that Guy never had insights into the Colonel, but Jade was a private person, and of all of their companions, Guy could respect that Jade had that right. Guy could be nosy--hypocritically so, since he himself disliked over-sharing, but being nosy at Jade was an exercise in futility ( ... )
