"No, not like that. The people still come back as they were when they die, up until they've been here for a year. And you and I? We're a couple of people that's been here the longest. Apparently the whole -bring people back- shit system isn't exactly the same as what the clones were. The clones just move in and take your place when they're done cooking. After that, they live as you did. All the same feelings, the same ability to get drunk, to build families. What the fuck ever."

He raises his hands and motions towards Squall. "The reason you can't do summons could be that chip in your head. Not sure. So no matter how strong we are? We can't do anything until we take care of that. 'Cause he could get a wild hair up his fuckin' computerized ass to turn everyone's powers off. Also that Suzaku guy? He didn't have to touch him. He just had him enclosed in as pace on his turf and fuckin' turned him right the hell off."

That's what's evident from the memory, anyway.

"We don't know yet who's who. Not many. Anyone who's been here longer than a year. Maybe some people that aren't with the Heart anymore."

He thinks of something that Thane just mentioned. "Hey, can you do me a favor? Can you go ask your buddies how your abilities were all limited? Thane's onto something I think; we can judge a little more about what he's done to us. Remember to do it where you got sound and visual cover, alright?" He's going to aggressively reinforce that.
