Awoken by the sound of crying, Kenneth swung his feet over the side of the bed. Jumping down from the bunk he sought to see what was wimpering and came to see that the sorrowful character had locked herself in the bathroom.

He knocked on the door and the voice said, "H-Hello.", and gave a soft sniffle.

"It's me.", and he thought for a short moment, "Are you alright?"

The voice slowy unlocked and opened the door, "Yeah."

Wiping her eyes and still sniffling, Rissite sat on the desk.

"What happened?", Kenn inquired brimming with concern.

"Gerraide," she let out another sob.

He couldn't fully understand due to her heavy sobbing what she was saying but he was certain that somewhere along the line she had met him in the "Qu quau....{Sob..sob}" as she said, probably the quad, as far as he could tell, and he'd given one of his most brutal criticisms, and although Kenneth had never fallen victim to one of his more ego-eradicating verbal assualts, he'd remembered once when Quistis made the dire mistake of telling Masto to be positive about people in a speech, Gerraide had gone through every student alphabetically in the class and shot down every point he or she had ever made. He'd almost been expelled and would've if not for the simple fact that he was the only student that year specializing in military analysis.

That had been 4 years ago. and Masto had been remembered, if at all, as the "mean kid" ever since. They were now on Rissite's bunk (which she reffered to as the Rissen-boitzelle) and rissite was huddled up in Kenneth's lap. Finished crying she got up and said, "Gerraide said he was going to timber to get someone and to tell you guys not to worry about what was going to happen to Garden, whatever that means."
