...Tifa.

[He mutters her name under his breath, brows furrowing as he tries to feel out any familiarity from it. At first he thinks he feels something nudging in his mind, something like deja vu...but no. When he looks back at her, at best is the feeling that he might have met her once somewhere before, but nothing more than that.

So in the end he just shakes his head, a palm pressing against it when he feels another dull throb the more he tries to think.]

No, I can't recall anything. All I know is I've been here for as long as I can remember, guarding this place and looking after them.

[He reaches down to lightly ruffle another corgi's ears before picking up his gun, his hand gently caressing it as it hums before he returns Flamek to its holster on his leg.]

I don't know where we could have met since I've never left this place.

[At least now Tifa will know for certain that there are more than a few screws loose in Eustace's memory, though whether that will bring any sense of relief is a different story entirely.]
