[Valentine's Day means absolutely nothing to Olivier, a woman who swore to uphold the honor of her family and country before all other things; romance is not something she has time for, nor a diversion she's tempted to indulge in. She has her Mayfield-bound trysts, but they, too, will fade, just as the memories of home begin to grow dimmer with each passing month

[There's a slight pause before he replies. What the hell does he even say? They had gone from being the fiercest of enemies to practically friends under Mayfield's curious amnesia. He couldn't in good conscience return to being her enemy. Not yet. Not without at least speaking to her first.
...And, a little part of him that niggled at the back of his mind said, maybe he didn't want to be her enemy at all. Maybe, in fact, he wanted to proceed in the opposite direction. This thought feels like a betrayal- of what, to whom, Nagi doesn't know.
But it's easy to keep your voice calm when it isn't your own.]
...I have recently regained some rather interesting memories. Do you know of what I speak?
I knew there was a good reason to hate you. A traitor to my country isn't going to be easily forgiven.
[Olivier seems hesitant; for once, her words lack conviction. The grudging respect she'd admitted to previously was actually heightened and complemented by having this vivid image returned to her. Nagi was, apparently, formidable, and gutsy enough to stand up to the harshest and most terrifying things Briggs could throw at anyone. Things that happened on the northern border of Amestris were never spoken of anywhere else, besides in hushed tones with sideways glances. She had no mercy in her heart

[Which of them is the real traitor, Nagi wonders. He, at least, has only betrayed something so meager as a country. It's time to get some answers.]
I only have one question for you, Olivier.
Do you know... are you aware... of what Bradley has done to your people?
