And that...that reaction, right there, was precisely why Prompto had been so convinced that it would be easier to just avoid her altogether, but then that plan had to go and get all ruined because she and Vette just had to insist on being friends, and, of course, how could he have said no to that? Maybe he should have. It was obviously too late now to go back on that. But if he was just honest and firm...and she wound up mad at him anyway for it, then...maybe it would just work itself out.

"No," he said, shaking his head a little. "It isn't dumb to expect that, especially not from someone so smart, especially when it's putting your own life in danger, Nina. Because...if we're going to do this thing, if we're going to stick together, I have to be able to know I can trust you to be smarter than that. I mean, how would you feel, if the roles were reversed? If it was me who went down in battle trying to protect you? Or if it was Vette who went down like that? And then you find out it was all just a waste? I'm telling you now so it doesn't have to be."
