I believe you, then, kyoudai - but you just told me that you hadn't seen anything when you obviously had. I didn't even ask anything and you lied to my face right away; that's why I asked like that.

But it's okay! I'm not mad.

I think different people see different things; I saw Celes-kun earlier. She mentioned seeing...well, something - but she kept referring to it as female, so it obviously wasn't you, and while I've seen a few things that may have been human it was always from enough of a distance that I couldn't tell whether they were a boy or a girl.
