"It's not about stopping and enjoying myself. You can do that no matter what you do. Fighting beside a friend? That can feel just as good as taking time to sit and relax. We all do what we can to make the best of every situation." He half turned to look over at Inigo. "I'm just trying to tell you... you can keep hiding all you want, kid. But from one warrior to another, you're not doing yourself any favours pretending." Was it obvious Inigo was pretending? No. For a long while he'd had Gladio fooled. But he'd had some suspicions. This conversation just made him realise he was right to be suspicious. He just didn't know why.
