Seifer: You want to wreak some havoc too, don't you?
Squall shrugs him off.
Squall: It's a good opportunity to test out my training. Thanks to you, I feel like I can take on anyone. Even if they do fight dirty, like you.

Squall: ...I don't know.
Squall: I try not to think about it.
Seifer: I love battles. I fear nothing. The way I look at it, as long as you make it out of a battle alive, you're one step closer to fulfilling your dream.
Squall: What!? Your dream?
Seifer: You have one too, don't you?
Squall: ...Sorry, but I'm gonna pass on that subject.
Zell: Yo! Let me in on it, too!

(Selphie): Wait a minute... You're the guy who showed me around, right!?
(Selphie): Thanks! I don't get so lost anymore.

Seifer appears near the entrance to the tower. Squall points to him.
Seifer: One of these days, I'm gonna tell ya 'bout my ROMANTIC dream!
He enters the building.
Selphie: (sigh) This sure is tough...
She leaps off the cliff to follow him.
Selphie: Captain! Wait up...!!!
Selphie: What are you waiting for!? Come on! Come on!
* Selphie: What took you so long? It would've been much quicker if you'd just jumped.

* Yeah, I guess so.
