[dream] // [video] - How The Lion Got His Scar and Other Stories
[Squall's dream starts out with him (minus his infamous scar) dueling a blond man wearing a trench coat, both of them holding Gunblades. After clashing a few times, the blond man gets in a hit, slicing Squall diagonally across the face. This is clearly the injury that would later become his scar. Through the pain and the blood, Squall swings the Revolver upward, giving the man a mirror image of the wound. Everything fades to black.
Fireworks explode into the darkness and a ballroom comes into view. Squall, wearing the SeeD uniform, is standing off to the side and watching the festivities. Rinoa Heartilly, clad in a beautiful evening dress, approaches him and drags him over to the dance floor. But the scenery changes and instead of a ballroom, they're dancing on top of a train. One with an extraordinarily shoddy paint job. Squall Leonhart does not dance, and the dance goes embarrassingly badly due to his awkwardness. When the dance is finished, the train car they're standing on is disconnected and fades into the distance as the train pulls further and further away, apparently unaware of its missing car.
Next, Squall's voice is heard.]
What's that nasty looking feather?
[Squall stands in a completely different scene, staring at a Chocobo feather in his hand. The feather suddenly turns into a crystal and then the image of a beautiful woman appears. She has blonde hair and is wearing an elegant white dress outlined with gold patterns. Why, one would say she looks like a goddess of some kind. But the woman then turns into a completely different one, a witch wearing an ornate headdress and a purple dress with a plunging neckline. She conjures up a massive javelin of ice and sends it at Squall. It hits its target, running him through.
And then suddenly Squall is Laguna Loire.
Dammit.]
[Squall wakes up and glares at the Dreamberry.
This is why Squall has come to hate dreams.]

[Well, it was more shoved in his hands, but yes, he did basically borrow it.]

[Good luck.
She's not sure she believes in it, either; the girls who got all up in arms over their results when drawing a fortune at the shrine always made her roll her eyes.
But she can't deny good luck probably got them through a lot...]

[He looks to the side.]
...but it was still nice to have it.

The way he looks off to the side--that's probably the most emotion she's seen out of him so far, jeez.]
Maybe you could get another one. I guess it doesn't have to be a Chocobo's feather.
[Though if he's partial to those, that is an option.]

I'm fine.
[It wasn't the charm itself or the supposed good luck it was supposed to bring that he has feelings about - it was the fact that someone had decided to give him this thing he held so dear to him as a sign of friendship.
Maybe someday Squall would be able to trust someone with an important item.]

It isn't something that can be forced, though--nor is good luck, so she accepts his answer with a light shrug.]
Oh, well. Whatever you like, then. I suppose a Defense Force leader's got other stuff to worry about, anyway.
