"I remember making that very clear-- painfully clear," Kratos said wryly. At the moment he wanted nothing more than to stop talking about what had gone on, or else he would have fired back about Raine's tactics that very same night. She would probably never let him forget about SC (as she had every right), but Kratos would never forgive her completely for using Lloyd against him- even if it had been for good intentions.

It was somewhat of a relief that Zelos hadn't chosen to inquire further into the entire brainwashing business, although he knew that it would all come back to haunt him later: the more Zelos knew, the more he would needle him; this was inevitable. Fortunately, by now Kratos was used to deflecting his questions or comments and maintaining a wordless front. He had to laugh, though, at the other man's comment- most of all at its irony. "Wait until night falls, Wilder."

Raine would probably choose to give a more in-depth explanation, and if he were feeling less irked he might have as well. Even so, if Zelos had any sort of sense, he would understand what was being implied.
