What a question. A question that Taiki probably doesn't realise the mess of, but then - that was just what anything to do with his father - his family - was like in his head. His feelings not what they once were, and even then: What was Jecht like?
He leans some against Taiki, gently, just to feel the press of him there. His presence.
"...he wasn't so different from how you saw him. The way he talked," he explains. "Cocky, arrogant, calling himself better than everyone else - that's the Jecht I knew growing up. But, who he was... I don't know."
He sits quietly, thinking. But it's true, isn't it? There was a lot about his dad he didn't get to know.
"I met him before- before I showed here." Before he was meant to leave. "It was the first time in ten years. He became trapped... and he wasn't really alive, but not dead. Something in-between. He tried saving people - I don't know if I told you about that." About Sin, and all. "But..."
But... He sits again, trying to formulate the words. What was Jecht like?
"He wasn't the best dad," Tidus finally says, "but he tried his best to be a good person in the end. He did what he could to keep people safe."
