Shizuka nodded her head to the Lieutentant's words. "Yes you would be correct Lieutentant. An apple espially a fresh one like the one I'm sharing with you would be worth it's weight in gold. But say what you will about the Lazuras Corperation, they do provide excelent benifits to thier loyal employees. Something of which I guess I might still be apart of, maybe. I didn't ship out with the rest of the lot back to Earth but they don't know about my involvment at any rate." she said slicing the final part of the apple in half and handing it to him. "Last one Lieutenant." she said to him.<br/><br/>As they talked Signum let Jeramy speak his peace about what Hayate had said and even followed up with the toast. However she did feel the need to correct him on something. "I am afraid you misinterpert Hayate's words Captain Black. You see Captain Loyality comes in many forms. You may not think you were considered loyal to the EDF but in a deeper sense you were the most loyal member the EDF could have ever had." she said setting her mug down. "The loyality you demonstrated was a higher form of loyality. You were loyal to the ideals and principles upon which the EDF was founded. The spirit of law versus the letter of law if you will. Humans change from day to day, however ideals and what they mean do not. That is why ideals have remained unchanged through human history but the people are different. Therefore the same people who created the EDF are not the same people who are running it today." she said taking another sip of the tea. "Also on another front Captain the greatest form of loyality is disloyality. The type of loyality that constantly asks the question. "Are you worthy of my loyalty?" That is what Hayate was saying." she said to him.
