... You're gonna need to ask Roland, [ Tidus answers after a quiet moment, a sheepishness coming across him that he flashes at Ryo in his expression to. A small shrug. ]

He's got a few of these in Purple's supplies - or, kinda the same, but different? But they sounded like the feathers, soo...I bought them. [ Simple as, even if he's realising now, he really should ask more questions, huh. But there's another direction his thoughts go, looking at the jewel in his hand. ]

We never had anything like this either, in Zanarkand. [ He glances at Ryo. ] Where I'm from. Magic... it's funny. You heard about it in stories, but it wasn't anything real. Not until I left - then I learned a lot about the world. What it was actually like.

[ Hm. He puts the jewel down, feeling awkward holding it. ] When you don't have things like this around, you're not used to taking them. I mean-- 'a feather or jewel that can save you from dying'. Right?

[ He laughs, an implication of how crazy is that? Just like a bean that can help you back up, or a weird beating heart that you just press inside you to give you more vitality. ]
