** Did Suzaku have a point when he accused Kallen in Chapter Seventeen of not really caring about [[spoiler: Rai]], is taking advantage of someone with no memories and just using him for her own purposes and to please Zero? Or is he being a {{Hypocrite}} when he himself wanted Rai to join the Brtiannian Army and help him with his goals? Or do BothSidesHaveAPoint in regards to their views, to Rai and their own actions?

** Is his attitude to Zero's and other officers praises sing of Rai being a HumbleHero? Or does it point to Rai secretly being arrogantly proud and seeing such remarks as beneath him and a sign of him holding back so not to stand out? Even if he does not process it in that way.
** Carrying on, is Rai's lack of confidence in his skill down to him being Amnesiac, a FishOutOfWater and being a shy person overall? Or does he have some AmbiguousDisorder that makes it hard for him to process his feelings and thoughts externally, as well at times places internally?
