Il Siracusano[]

IS-2[]

Texas“......”
Lappland“What's the hurry? Don't you think it's a miracle for the two of us to run into each other in Siracusa again?”
Texas“I'm busy right now.”
Lappland“What a coincidence, so am I.”
— IS-2, before operation [1]
Texas“Swords rust in the rain.”
Lappland“In Siracusa, the rain washes away the blood. Only people like you – who walk around town with your swords out but no intention to use them – need to worry about rust.”
Texas“...... Why are you here?”
Lappland“It's simple, really. Because you are.”
— IS-2, before operation [2]
Lappland“Hey, Texas, how long has it been since you were last in Siracusa?”
Texas“Probably about ten years now?”
Lappland“Seven years and five months. For more than seven years, the prodigal daughter of Famiglia Texas has not set foot in Siracusa. I still remember how your grandfather sent you back here to serve as a hostage. You stayed with Famiglia Saluzzo for a while... Those days didn't last long, but we sure got along great, didn't we?”
Texas“If that's your idea of "getting along."”
— IS-2, before operation [3]
Lappland“Now that you mention it, there's something I've always been curious about, Texas. You betrayed the Texases and decided to become a lone wolf. You even abandoned everything the Texases left behind in Columbia. So why do you still go by the name Texas in Lungmen”
Texas“...... That's none of your business. Lappland. I don't plan on staying in Siracusa. I will go back to Lungmen. There are people waiting for me there.”
Lappland“...... Okay then. I'll help you.”
Texas“I don't need your help.”
— IS-2, before operation [4]

IS-3[]

Capone“But at least tell us which side you're on. Last thing I want is to end up fighting against you without realizing, and dying without knowing what hit me.”
Lappland“Me? Naturally, I'll always be Texas's most loyal supporter.”
— IS-3, before operation [5]

IS-10[]

Lappland“By the way, Texas. I got a letter from Signora Sicilia before you went back to Siracusa.”
Texas“Cool.”
Lappland“Guess what it said?”
Texas“No thanks.”
Lappland“Oh, you're no fun.”
— IS-10, after operation [6]
Lappland“Texas... Do you really not get what I see in you?”
Texas“Sometimes I think I do. Sometimes I think I don't. All I know is that you seem to have gotten over something.”
Lappland“Oh? Are you showing concern for me?”
Texas“I just think you're kind of annoying.”
— IS-10, after operation [7]
Lappland“Do you remember? Seven years ago, you came to me, in front of the burning mansion, looking to get away from it all. I got hell for it that day. Seven years later, you came to me again, in a rainy park, to issue a silly challenge to Siracusa. I'll kill you today.”
Texas“That's my line.”
— IS-10, after operation [8]
Lappland“You could call me your past, Texas. I believed that no one could escape this swamp. You escaped your past, once, and made up your mind to cut all ties with it, after returning to Siracusa. You proved to everyone that you had what it took to escape the swamp. You're staying here of your own accord, to help that young cub change the place.”
Texas“You're giving me too much credit. My dream has always been to live a simple life with a few good friends. I'll defend it, if someone threatens to destroy it. There's nothing complicated about it.”
— IS-10, after operation [9]
“So let me put it a different way. You're my nightmare, Texas. You always surprise me. You're always a step ahead of me. You made all the decisions that I couldn't. And now I can finally say this, after finally taking that step, like you did. You're right. There's nothing complicated about it. If I hated everything about Siracusa so much, I should've destroyed it. In the end, you're the one who made me take this step.”
— Lappland, IS-10, after operation [10]
Texas“That's why you said goodbye to your father, and why you're standing here in front of me. You want to settle things with your past.”
Lappland“Yes. Just like you.”
Texas“...... We didn't have to go at each other's throats like this.”
Lappland“But it happened. We each decided, on our own, that to kill each other is the way to settle things. The best way to say our goodbyes. The one who survives will become stronger.”
— IS-10, after operation [11]
Lappland“Texas. So you were just Texas after all.”
Texas“Of course I'm just Texas. What about you?”
Lappland“Looks like I'm just Lappland.”
— IS-10, after operation [12]
Lappland“Texas, am I your friend, or your enemy?”
Texas“You're my friend, and my enemy.”
Lappland“Then go. Let me do what a friend should.”
— IS-10, after operation [13]
Sora“Huh? Where's Lappland?”
Texas“She's fulfilled her duty as a friend. Who knows what form she'll take, when she shows herself next time? The only thing I can be sure is this. We haven't seen the last of her.”
— IS-10, after operation [14]

I Portatori dei Velluti[]

Game“The other envelope was empty, with a white wolf and a bunch of grapes scribbled on the corner of the purple cover.”
Texas“...Lappland.”
— PV-2, before operation [15]
Lappland“...Lappland, what do you know?”
Texas“Doubt me?”
Lappland“No, if it were you, you would probably choose a more classic and eye-catching approach. At least you should be in the center of the fire now, not next to me.”
Texas“Haha, you still understand me.”
— PV-7, after operation [16]
Lappland“Wow, very chic appearance, Texas.”
Texas“What, stole your limelight?”
Lappland“Haha, how could that be? After all, you are in a hurry to see me.”
— PV-9, after operation [17]
Lappland“Texas, oh Texas, I haven't forgotten the scene of our first meeting… [...] Your eyes were so bright back then, and your expression was much more interesting than it is now——”
Texas“It's just that the grapes you picked were sour.”
Lappland“Texas, everyone in the square tonight is wearing a mask, but the one on your face is the most special. No one is more clear-headed than you. You realize earlier than anyone else that this is a quagmire and you have to escape from it. However, the premise of such clarity is precisely your disappointment. Texas, you once had high hopes for this quagmire.”
— PV-10, after operation [18]
Lappland“Did you hear that? They are reluctant to let go of this late night. They are cheering for you and me, cheering for this new city and the new life that is to come.”
Texas“You're still as disgusting as ever, Lappland.”
Lappland“Hey, you're welcome.”
Texas“But I don’t reject the idea of ​​myself being a part of this show. I don’t reject the idea of ​​them seeing so-called “meaning” in me at this moment. The premise of disappointment is expectation. Whether it is in Colombia or Siracusa, I really hope to see a truly vibrant city in the quagmire. If the difficulty and complexity of building it is really far beyond my imagination, then I will no longer avoid it, and I will join my friends.”
— PV-10, after operation [19]
Lappland“Texas, I suddenly want to ask you a question.”
Texas“What?”
Lappland“I came to New Velluti not for you. Are you disappointed?”
Texas“No.”
Lappland“Haha, another standard “Texas” answer. Wish us a good show, Texas.”
— PV-10, after operation [20]

Other[]

Lappland“Hmm? What brings you here?”
Texas“...... Unfinished business.”
Lappland“Oh. I've been busy working all night.”
Texas“...... I just wasted the whole evening. Can I take that to mean you're behind all of this?”
Lappland“It's not that complicated, Texas. I just helped you get rid of some obstacles. After all, I want to see how you tackle the last problem, without those obstacles in your way.”
— Azione Solo: Cellinia Texas, Story 6-1 [21]
Texas“(Leontuzzo will take care of the traitor himself. Sora also confirmed that she hasn't run into any trouble. Then, who put the radio there, and what does it mean?)”
Lappland“After making a big ol' detour, I suddenly remembered I had to come back to tell you something.”
Lappland, humming“I put the radio there.”
