John DiMaggio: Wakka, Kimahri Ronso

Quotes 

• Auron : [as Lady Yunalesca prepares to battle them]  Now! This is it! Now is the time to choose! Die and be free of pain or live and fight your sorrow! Now is the time to shape your stories! Your fate is in your hands!

  Kimahri : Yuna needs Kimahri. Kimahri protect Yuna.

  Rikku : Well, I'm fighting!

  Wakka : I can't believe we're gonna fight Lady Yunalesca! Gimme a break!

  Lulu : You can always run.

  Wakka : Hah! I'd never forgive myself-no way! Not if I ran away now. Even in death, ya!

  Lulu : Hm. My thoughts exactly.

  Tidus : Yuna! This is our story! Now let's see this thing through together.

• Tidus : They said Seymour went to Macarena Temple.

  Wakka : [correcting him]  "Macalania" Temple.

  Tidus : Aye?

• Maester Seymour Guado : [as Yuna's guardian's step forth]  Ah, of course. "Protect the summoner, even at the cost of one's life." The Code of the Guardian. How admirable. Well, if you are offering your lives, I will have to take them.

  Yuna : Maester Seymour. I trust my guardians with my life, but they are also my friends. I will not stand by and watch them be hurt.

  [She brings out her staff] 

  Yuna : I will fight you, too!

  Tidus : All right!

  Wakka : M-Maester Seymour!

  Maester Seymour Guado : So be it!

• Wakka : [upon finding Tidus trying to watch Jyscal's sphere; holding him in a headlock]  Yeah, yeah! She'll tell us when she's ready, so hold your chocobos till then. *Ya?*

• Maester Seymour Guado : [appearing in front of Tidus and Rikku]  Ah, the son of Jecht.

  Tidus : Rikku, run ahead and tell Auron!

  Rikku : You are not fighting him alone!

  Tidus : Just go! *Go!*

  Maester Seymour Guado : Now is your time to die. Prepare yourself, son of Jecht.

  Tidus : Not if I can help it!

  Kimahri Ronso : [approaching with the others]  Save some for Kimahri!

  Maester Seymour Guado : [noticing Yuna]  Ah, Lady Yuna. It is a pleasure.

  Lulu : Yuna!

  [Yuna gets ready to send Seymour to the Farplane] 

  Maester Seymour Guado : A sending? So soon? Let me say something to the last Ronso before I leave. Your's was... truly a galant race. They threw themselves at me to bar my path. One... after another...

  [Seymour laughs] 

  Kimahri Ronso : [realizing what Seymour is saying]  No...

  Yuna : Kimahri...

  Maester Seymour Guado : You could end the suffering of this poor Ronso.

  Yuna : I don't understand you!

  Maester Seymour Guado : Allow Kimahri to die and release him from his suffering. Spira, is consumed by the spiral of death. To destroy - to *heal* Spira - I will become Sin with your help Lady Yuna. Come, Lady Yuna.

  Auron : Don't listen to him!

  Maester Seymour Guado : [to Tidus]  Once I become Sin, your father will be free again.

  Tidus : [frusturated]  Ah, what do *you* know?

  [takes his sword and rushes towards Seymour] 

  Maester Seymour Guado : Pitiful mortal...

  [the unsent Seymour begins transforming into Seymour Flux] 

  Maester Seymour Guado : Your hope ends here! And your meaningless existence with it!

  [after defeating Seymour Flux] 

  Tidus : [exhausted]  And *stay* up there!

• [after defeating Seymour on Mt. Gagazet] 

  Yuna : He will become Sin... with my help? With my help, Sir Jecht will be free once again once.

  Auron : Lies. Forget them.

  Yuna : You know something! Tell me!

  Tidus : Sin's... my old man.

  Wakka : [stunned]  You hit your head?

  Tidus : My old man's Spira's suffering.

  Yuna : Even knowing... that Sin is your father... you know... I must...

  Tidus : Yeah... Let's go get him!

  Lulu : You would fight your own father?

  Tidus : No problem there...

  Wakka : Are you sure this isn't some toxin dream?

  [Tidus shakes his head] 

  Wakka : That means... Chappu... I'll just pretend I heard nothing. I'm confused, ya? Why'd everything turn out like this?

  Auron : We'll find out soon once we reach Zanarkand.

• Tidus : Who is this Yu Yevon guy?

  Lulu : Lady Yunalesca also mentioned him.

  Rikku : Wait, gramps! Who's Yu Yevon?

  Maester Yo Mika : He who crafts the souls of the dead into unholy armor. An armor called Sin! Clad in it, Yu Yevon is invincible. And the only thing that could have pierced that armor, you have destroyed! Nothing can stop it now...

  [vanishes in a cloud of pyreflies] 

  Wakka : [angrily]  Bah! Disappear on us, will ya? Rotten son of a shoopuf!

• [about Tidus and Jecht] 

  Wakka : Hating your own father, huh? Sounds like a luxury to me. I don't remember my parents. Can't say how I feel about 'em.

  Lulu : I... I was five then... so I remember mine, a little.

  Wakka : [punches the floor]  Dammit! Sin just takes everything away from us!

• Tidus : [about to fight Yu Yevon]  Guys. This is the last time we fight together, okay?

  Wakka : Huh?

  Tidus : What I'm trying to say is... after we beat Yu Yevon... I'll disappear.

  Lulu : What are you talking about?

  Tidus : I'm saying goodbye!

  Rikku : Not now!

  Tidus : [brings out sword]  I know it's selfish, but this is my story!

• Wakka : [to Rikku]  How come you speak Al Bhed?

  Wakka : [to Tidus and Lulu]  Why?

  Tidus : Uh, well...

  Rikku : [deciding to reveal her lineage]  Because... I'm Al Bhed, and that... was my brother.

  Wakka : [to Tidus and Lulu]  You knew?

  [They both nod] 

  Wakka : Why didn't you tell me?

  Lulu : We knew you'd be upset.

  Wakka : [disgusted]  This is great! I can't believe I've been traveling with an Al Bhed! A heathen!

  Rikku : You're wrong! We have nothing against Yevon!

  Wakka : But you Al Bhed use the forbidden machina! You know what that means? Sin was born because people used machina!

  Rikku : You got proof? Show me proof!

  Wakka : [scoffing]  It's in Yevon's teachings! Not that *you'd* know!

  Rikku : That's not good enough! Yevon says this, Yevon says that! Can't you think for yourself?

  Wakka : Well, then, you tell me! Where did Sin come from, huh?

  Rikku : I... I don't know!

  Wakka : Hmph! You bad-mouth Yevon, and that's all you can come up with?

  Rikku : But... that doesn't mean you should do whatever they say without thinking! Nothing will ever change that way!

  Wakka : Nothing has to change!

  Rikku : You want Sin to keep coming back? There might be a way to stop it, you know!

  Wakka : Sin will be gone once we atone for our past mistakes!

  Rikku : When? How?

  Wakka : [shaking his fist at Rikku]  If we keep faith in Yevon's teachings it will be gone one day!

  Rikku : [realizing that it is hopeless at the moment]  Why do I even bother?

• Rikku : [after Yuna escapes]  Cover your eyes!

  [Rikku tosses something, and a bright light goes off. In the ensueing chaos, the group escapes] 

  Wakka : [bewildered]  Wh-What was *that?*

  Rikku : An Al Bhed flashbomb!

  Tidus : Lemme go! I'm gonna *kill* that Seymour!

  Kimahri : Yuna said leave! We leave!

  Lulu : We'll join up with her later!

  Auron : Break through!

• Maester Seymour Guado : [Seymour, defeated, falls to his knees. Yuna walks forward]  Yuna... you would pity me now?

  [He falls on his back, dead. Yuna rushes to the dead body and closes his eyes. Tromell and two Guado escorts suddenly enter] 

  Tromell Guado : Maester Seymour! What has happened here?

  Wakka : [stunned]  What... What have I done...?

  Tidus : [as the Guado check Seymour's body]  Wait a minute! It's not our fault at all! Seymour struck first; he's the bad guy!

  Tromell Guado : Y-You did this?

  Auron : Yuna. Send him.

  Tromell Guado : [angered]  No, stop! Stay away from him, traitors!

  [the Guado carry Seymour's body out of the chamber. Yuna falls to her knees] 

  Yuna : [in disbelief]  Traitors...?

  Wakka : We're finished.

  Tidus : Now, hold on! Seymour's the bad guy, right? We'll just tell everyone what happened!

  Auron : It won't be that easy - let's get out of here.

• [after getting washed up at an unknown desert area, Tidus, Lulu, and Auron try to find the others. Tidus finds Wakka sitting under a makeshift canopy] 

  Tidus : [running over]  Wakka! You okay?

  Wakka : [nods]  Where's Yuna?

  [Tidus and Lulu look at each other, but they, along with Auron, say nothing] 

  Wakka : [kicking a metal pillar]  *Dam*mit! First, I lose Yuna, then I'm ambushed by machina! Great day I'm having.

  [Further away, Tidus finds Kimahri trying - and failing - to scale a steep sand dune] 

  Kimahri : [shaking his head]  Yuna... gone.

  Tidus : It's not your fault, Kimahri!

  [after more searching, they run into Rikku] 

  Rikku : [waving]  Oh! Hey, guys! Where's Yunie?

  Tidus : Gone.

  Lulu : [despondent]  Gone... Some guardian I am.

  Rikku : Um... There's something I wanna tell you, but promise you won't say anything.

  [Wakka glares at her] 

  Rikku : No glaring, either! I know where we are. We're on Bikanel Island. There's a place us Al Bhed call "Home" here. Yunie's there, I'm sure of it! Other Al Bhed must've come and rescued her!

  Wakka : "Rescued"? You mean "kidnapped"!

  Tidus : What does it matter, as long as she's safe?

  Rikku : That's right! Anyway, I will take you there - if you promise that you won't tell anyone about it. Especially not Yevonites, okay? You know they don't like us Al Bhed. Who knows what they'll do if they knew?

  Wakka : Gimme a break! What're you accusing Yevon of this time?

  Rikku : Yevon did something really horrible to us in the past.

  Wakka : Well, you Al Bhed must've deserved it!

  Tidus : [yells in frustration]  Can't you guys... talk about this later?

  Rikku : Just promise that you won't tell anyone about this place, okay?

  Tidus : Come on, Wakka!

  Wakka : [giving in]  All right, I promise! Lead the way!

• Wakka : [visiting his brother Chappu in the Farplane]  Yo, Chappu! Meant to come see you earlier, ya? Sorry. I know you won't hold it against me. I gave up the game. I'm a guardian from here on, you know? This guy - looks a lot like you - showed up. Travelling with him, I thought, maybe... you were still alive somewhere, ya? But, then again, here you are on the Farplane. Guess your place is here. So... how you been? Oh! That guy I told you about? I gave him your sword. He likes it.

• Wakka : [encountering a Behemoth]  How many steaks you think we can get outta this?

• Wakka : A summoner with bed-hair! What's the world coming to?

• Wakka : Those sand-blasted grease monkeys!

• Tidus : It's tough...

  [sighs] 

  Tidus : ... when your father's famous.

  Wakka : Eh?

  Lulu : Wakka's... a bit lacking in the imagination department.

  Wakka : Huh?

  Tidus : [laughing]  Thanks, Lulu. I'll keep that in mind.

• Wakka : [about Operation Mi'ihen]  But, using machina - that's bad, isn't it?

  Maester Seymour Guado : Pretend you didn't see them.

  Wakka : [Everyone - except for Tidus and Auron - gasps]  Beg your pardon, but *that's* not something a Maester should say!

  Maester Seymour Guado : Then pretend I didn't say it.

  Wakka : [disbelieving]  You're kidding!

• Wakka : You here to pray for victory, too?

  Luca Goer 1 : Us? Pray? Who needs to pray? The Luca Goers always win!

• Tidus : [to Wakka and Rikku, who have been thrown in the underwater section of the dungeon]  What's our sentence?

  Wakka : Think they expect us to give up and die down here.

  Tidus : [groans]  Well, *that's* a lame way to kill someone!

• Auron : You remind me of myself. Before, the closer I came to Zanarkand, the more I wondered... when we arrive, Braska will call the Final Aeon... He will fight Sin, then die. I thought my mind was made up long before. But when I stood here, my resolve wavered.

  Wakka : Huh, never would've figured. Legendary guardians choke sometimes, too, ya?

  Auron : Legendary guardian? I was just a boy. A boy about your age, actually. I wanted to change the world, too. But I changed nothing. That is my story.

• [after defeating a fiend] 

  Wakka : Woo-hooo!

  Lulu : [scolding]  Don't get too cocky.

• Wakka : [after the group describes the plan to defeat Sin]  Sure it's against the rules and all, but who's keeping track, ya? Yeah?

• Wakka : [after the Al Bhed blow up their Home]  Hey - don't look so down! BOOM! Hahaha! Like happy festival fireworks, ya?

  Rikku : [upset]  You can *cram* your happy festival, you - *big meanie!*

  [storms off] 

  Wakka : [when Tidus talks to him]  Why didn't I just shut my big mouth...?

• [during an attack from Sin, en route to Kilika, two crewmen ready the harpoons] 

  Wakka : What do you think you're doing? Stick a harpoon in him and we'll all get dragged under!

  S.S. Liki crewman : Sin's heading for Kilika! We gotta distract it!

  S.S. Liki crewman : [to Yuna]  Our families are in Kilika! Forgive us, Lady Summoner!

  [after a brief pause, Yuna approves use of the harpoons] 

  Wakka : Wait! Oh, boy...

• Lulu : [after Lady Ginnem is sent]  Strange. I thought it would be sadder, somehow. Maybe I've gotten used to farewells.

  Wakka : You're stronger now.

  Lulu : Wakka, I hope you're right.
