[Between the hair and the purple suit and the foppish tone of voice, Lorenz Hellman Gloucester stands out like a particularly prissy sore thumb. Unfortunately, as a 6'8 brick wall, Dedue also stands out, and thus it is something of an inevitability that Lorenz spots him.]
[Perhaps Lorenz didn't notice exactly who he was before he'd asked the question, because... all things considered, it's a ridiculous question to ask.]
I have no strong opinion on the subject.
[The last time that Dedue had seen Lorenz was at Myrddin-- grievously wounded, battered and bloody after a skirmish with Byleth. The professor had convinced him to rejoin them, at least, and Dedue had found out later that he did survive his injuries after magical intervention. His change of heart does not erase the fact that he had fought on the side of the Empire, but it does mean that he is, technically, no longer an enemy. Technically.]
