Squall couldn't have told you why he always seemed to show up at just the right time to keep Seifer from getting the shit knocked out of him. He just... did, much to his frequent chagrin. So in the long run, Seifer would just have to get used to being 'saved'.

He didn't answer Seifer's comment right away, instead opting to give him a thoroughly unimpressed look as he weighed his options. He wasn't going to leave him to Selphie's mercy, and that meant leaving was definitely out of the picture.

"Make me."
