[For Hilda, romances like these are casual, in a way. She's had boyfriends, sure, but she's never really loved any of them. And honestly, chances are pretty good that she'll be arranged to marry someone eventually, so it doesn't really matter in the long run.
(Then there's the whole Balthus von Albrecht of it all, but she is pointedly not thinking about him. She's not in love with him! She just had a moment of weakness, and he was protective and familiar. That's all.)
Hilda does Ori a kindness by not pointing out that yes, she was totally keeping their identities a secret last time she talked about these two men. At the time, it was a prudent decision, and one Hilda respects. But now is a totally different story, and she equally appreciates that Ori isn't coy with the details.]
Oh, I've talked to Thoma a few times. He's really sweet, and handsome too~ [Hilda maaaaaay have flirted with him in the past, but no point in bringing that up. And she certainly won't be doing so in the future, knowing that he's one of Ori's men!] As for Diluc... he's tall, red hair, kinda grumpy? Do I have him right?
