I would never compare any other part of you to a camel. Promise. [A pause. And then he says more seriously:] And... Sorry for not mentioning any of that shit before. I really didn't mean to.
[Lest they forget the actual reason why he wandered out here...]
[ Ugh, why's he gotta have this much rizz when it counts... though it's the genuineness of it that actually affects him more. ]
... it's fine. Just like I told Athrun, I can let it slide this time as long as you don't forget again! And if I can give that guy a pass then of course you get one too.
[ He does. And topped off with that smile ... not just as warm but just as bright as the sun so he can hardly look at it for too long lest he feel his affection for this corny yet charming man ignite and start to burn. ]
Hmph. Take pride in that! Because you're beating him in something that matters a hell of a lot more than any contest or rank.
[ Having his heart is clearly the most important and most coveted thing in the world, in comparison. And not something he would just bestow onto anyone. ]

[ That was a compliment. ]

Heh. [He smiles, warm as the Egyptian sun.] Thanks. Nice to know I can beat Athrun at something.
[That's... A bad joke, but hopefully Yzak will appreciate it anyway.]
