Faced, Tidus follows suit once he understands what Taiki is doing, hands resting on the ends of his knees as he listens. A will despite the inkling he won't entirely understand, but then--when has that ever stopped him? At least as Taiki speaks, he think he's following well enough...

...enough for his eyes to widen appropriately at the task Taiki went through, for real. Mouth agape, even once he finishes.

"There's no way I could do that!" Seriously, a whole day of--what, meeting eyes? Convincing them? And yet, when he imagines that or tries to, in a blink, he remembers something big. "Yuna-- when she had to pray to the Fayth the first time, she was there the whole day. People got worried--it was actually how we met."

And his expression turns sheepish, a small slide aside as he admits: "I bust through into the temple she was in. Maaaade a few priests mad."

Eheh.

"When you did that," he continues soon after, "there's still a kind of...power I guess, or something involved? You can do it because you're a kirin, right? Kind of like that."
