FFXIV screenshot. A tall Elezen cyborg woman (Nex) stands next to a shorter dark haired man (Luca) in the subways of terminus, in front of a makeshift fire. The lean against a metal wall as they talk, the man appears to be her superior. Luca says to her, “I can’t blame him. For leaving. For betraying me. It was inevitable.” He speaks of his scorned lover, whom he trusted and loved more than any, who he believed abandoned and betrayed him.

The scene closes up on Luca’s bitter questioning expression as he smokes his cigarette and asks Nex, “Why stay, after all this time. Surely you’ve your pick of blood mongers to serve.”

The scene closes up on Nex as she looks down at Luca with an unbothered blank expression and replies to him, “You’re too smart to be asking stupid questions sir.”
