[Keith’s words cause Zidane to turn around and look back towards his friend. He remembers hearing stories of soldiers coming back from fighting when the various conflicts on the Mist Continent happened. And those soldiers found it very difficult to adjust when they got back home. Sure, he fought in a war too once but not for a long period and not as a soldier – just as someone who wanted to help his friend protect her homeland. And while he didn’t turn out to be someone who found it difficult to adjust to life when it calmed down…..maybe it was because he had his own way of dealing with things. Which wouldn’t necessarily help Keith. The two of them are two completely different people with different lives.

But about what you said….about you not knowing whether or not you can adjust to a normal life……it’s okay….if you don't know that for now. Forcing yourself to fit in a mould won't get you anywhere. [And while Zidane doesn't know how Keith feels, he does know that his friend has a good heart, someone who works and fights to protect those he cares about.]

……Does Shiro know? [Possibly not if Keith has come out with it just now. And it’s up to the guy on whether or not to tell his fiance. And clearly Shiro won’t have an answer if he can’t adjust to peace either. But maybe the fact the two of them love each other and have experienced the same thing can help them both…..possibly.....]
