>Skull Grunt A: Awww, look at you, little Gladion! Aren't you just a real cool guy? Heh heh heh...
>Skull Grunt B: I guess it's no surprise a homeless kid would turn out spineless, too, huh? No worries! We've got enough backbone to cover for you!
>Gladion: Hmph. Why do I do this... Every time something brings me down, I end up coming right back here again...
>Gladion: Come on, Null. Let's go bury our sorrow in the crowd.
>Gladion: Because Null and I have to make it on our own. And I don't ever want to forget that.
>Faba: Hee hee hee! Look at you... Living out in the world hasn't been kind, has it? But I'm still not telling you anything! And you of all people should understand why... Gladion.
>Faba: Indeed... The world truly hasn't been kind to you, has it? Look how hard it has made you. If you're looking for Cosmog, I suppose it might be downstairs.
>Gladion: Me and Null... We're more alike than we might look. We're both what we were made to be...
>Gladion: I was like an ornament to my mother. Wearing whatever she told me to wear, acting however she wanted me to act...
>Gladion: Null was crafted just as carefully. It was made just to battle the beasts. In this room...right here...
>Gladion: Just...just leave it alone. Did you check out the other lab?
>Lusamine: The daughter who stole my Cosmog from me and the son who took my Type: Null! All I ever did was give you two all the love I had, and all you did was betray me! You have no right to ask for my attention now!
>Lillie: But...but when you took Null and left Aether Paradise two years ago... you left me alone with Mother! She was so bad after you left! If I hadn't had Wicke with me...
>Gladion: I'm sorry... I wasn't there for you when you needed me. All I could think about back then was finding a way to save Null... That was the battle I was fighting. But now you've found your own battle to fight. I know you can handle it.
Gladion had a hard life.
