[One of the best ways to get points with Lightning? Let her gush about her sister.]

She's not. Far as I know, no idea what's going on back home either.

[Last she checked, Serah was still a crystal... but hopefully not for much longer. She's still holding out hope that what she said to Snow is true—that they'll both see her again soon. If it means that she has to wait months here to do it, then that's fine, as long as there's still the promise that she'll be returning.]

Too bad she isn't. I think you two would be good friends.

[She isn't even pulling his leg on that.]
