[ Lightning wasn't a Cie'th for long, but... still, the amount of sorrow and regret and then that drive to attack were - and are - utterly overwhelming; that's more than enough to wreck someone's emotional control when forced to go through it.
And yet she's alive, and that's remarkable in itself. As a rule, l'Cie who fail? They don't get second chances. Ever.
Lightning just doesn't yet know what to do with hers. There's a long pause- really long, and though the sound of ripping isn't close enough to suggest she's still pulling pages out, it continues on in the background. And although there's something about this particular voice that makes her inclined to listen a little more, right now it's still extremely upsetting. Her voice shakes when she finally answers. ]
