I... [ Regis makes himself breathe, then goes on. ] 'tis what happened before, here, when Noctis and Lunafreya wedded. They were both gone within a month or so.
Then Noctis returned, not remembering aught of his stay here, and later so did Lunafreya. I... wonder if it will happen once more.
I didn't want to say anything, but I remember that happening. [ She had been afraid she'd jinx everything. Maybe she should have said something? Then the opposite might have happened... ]
I didn't know them then, but I knew them this time. [ She pauses. That's happened before to others too, so... ]
Why not? If it's happened before, it can happen again.
[ Sheena wants nothing more than to see this family happy. ]
[ Regis is quiet for a moment, then only repeats, softly, ] I am glad that you and Machina are here as well.
[ Since the two of them are more the exception rather than the rule.
After another moment, Regis sighs. ]
Thank you for checking, my dear. For now, I am holding up, and Auron's presence and Jecht's help. Let us be glad they had a chance for happiness, as long as it lasted, here. If we had spoken... we might have deprived them of it in exchange for worries, and they have plenty of those already.
Well...she feels bad because of their conversation at the reception.
[ "Well" is another story because yes, she's happy, but she's also hurting for him. ]
How are you doing?
Oh no... poor Sheena. IT was so good though...
