If you ask me, they don't really care. Either they manage to get some of us to talk, which is good for them, or they can use us as leverage or a warning, whatever suits their needs. They can't really lose from most angles.

...Man, Noctis, why did you have to bring up something like that.]
I'd prefer keep everything where it is right now, thanks.
If things really go that far, we should get ready to make some trouble. What sort of stuff do you have up your sleeve, if you had to use it?
