[The various characters enter and exit from a clearing in Macalania woods.]

Maester Mika: No knot unties itself...
Lulu: Sometimes the things you most wish for are not to be touched...
Auron and Rin: The harder to get, the better to have...
Auron: Agreed?
Rin: Agreed.
Blonde: Never wear mauve at a ball...
Redhead: Or pink...
Donna [to clones]: Or open your mouth...
Tidus: The difference between a chocobo and a bean
Is a chocobo can't give you gas... uhh…
Wakka [at Tidus]: Slotted spoons don't hold much soup, ya?
Rikku: The prettier the flower, the farther from the path...
Baltero: The closer to the family, the closer to the wine.
What does that mean? What am I doing here, anyway?
Donna: Shut up, dear.
Random Old Woman: Stay away from the summoner!
Shiva [offstage]: Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah...
Lulu: One midnight gone!
Anima: A drunken lech is not the end of the world...

Yuna: Opportunity is not a lengthy visitor, you know?
Seymour: You may know what you need,
But to get what you want,
Better see that you keep what you have.

Into the woods,
Into the woods,
Into the woods, then out of the woods and home before--
Tidus: There are giants in the sky!
There are big, tall, terrible giants in the sky!
When you're way up high, and you look below
At the world you've left and the things you know,
Little more than a glance is enough to show
You just how small you are.
When you're way up high, and you're on your own,
In a world like none that you've ever known,
Where the sky's like lead and the earth's like stone,
You're free to do whatever pleases you.
Exploring things you'd never dared,
'Cause you don't care,
When suddenly there's
A big, tall, terrible giant at the door.
A big, tall, terrible lady giant [A/N: The Giantess is Yunalesca, by the way] sweeping the floor.
And she gives you food, and she gives you rest.
And she draws you close to her giant breast.
And you know things now that you never knew before.
After the sky.
Only just when you've made a friend and all,
And you know she's big, but you don't feel small,
Someone bigger than her comes along the hall
To swallow you for lunch!
And your heart is lead, and your stomach's stone,
And you're really scared, being all alone,
And it's then that you miss all the things you've known,
And the world you've left, and the little you own;
The fun is done.
You steal what you can, and run!
And you scramble down, and you look below
At the world you left, and the things you know…
The house, the Calm Lands, and Wakka at the door.
The plains, the house, and the world you'd never thought to explore.
And you think of all of the things you'd seen.
And you wish that you could live in-between.
And you're back again, only different than before.
After the sky.
There are giants in the sky!
There are big, tall, terrible, awesome, scary,
Wonderful giants in the sky!
