[ What Duo doesn't know is that one of them went on a suicide mission and took out as many as he could in order to further his own goals. So it hurts a bit, to hear that they got what they should've — not only because Alphinaud isn't big on death anyway, but because of what he knows. Ilberd got what he wanted, and many others got what they didn't deserve.
But he doesn't much want to talk about that — at all. It's already highly unenjoyable talking about what they're seeing before them. A strange breech of privacy, for him. ]
I am sure it needs not be said, but I have since retired from leading groups in that fashion. [ He's still a leader at heart, ready to make up plans and do whatever needs to be done at any time. But leading a company like that, or whatever else, is not something he has any mind to do any time soon. So Duo can rest assured he doesn't plan to get involved in that sort of thing. Though his reason for this is not "because I might be betrayed" and more "I don't feel I'm qualified or deserving".
Doubting one's comrades is poison to the soul, though. The experience hasn't made him suspicious of his friends or the others he takes on as his comrades. ]
