There's only so long a person can poke a sphere and shrug their shoulders over what it's all about, and for Tidus, his interest runs into annoyance quick when no answer as to what the things are even meant to be wants to pop out at them. Maybe he should have gone with Blue Team after all: at least they would be helping people instead of wasting time out in the middle of nowhere.

But they do have something of a distraction--that is, a tent to set out. A few others in the team have already started put up their own in a nearby patch of dusty land not too from the cluster of spheres, but before they head over, Tidus gets Yuna to come with him to find a friend who should be around. Telling her a little bit about him, how "his King disappeared, and he's pretty torn up about it--and I don't want him to think he's alone."

So, with an eye out for the guy and a good pair of lungs, Tidus makes a few calls of Taiki's name until he spots him--and then he calls him again, Yuna by his side, waving a hand as he approaches the young adviser.

"Yo! Taiki!"
