A fish that leaps out of the stream is more easily caught by the net. Is it the fault of the fish for following its instincts that it is caught?
[...This is the kind of philosophical oddity that comes out of Shu's mouth sometime.]

[Her examination is perhaps not what Cid might expect. As she kneels beside him, she opens a hand filled with tiny seeds and allows them to filter through her fingers. There is soon a spreading carpet of greenery around the two of them, tiny buds peeking out from the carpet. Hopefully Cid doesn't mind becoming a terrarium.
Whatever injuries or battle wounds that Cid might currently be harboring on his body - or anything as minor as a shaving scar - will slowly begin to knit together. There is no change, of course, in the calcification. Shu's hands run slowly up and down his body without actually making physical contact, though the sprouting seeds glow gently and stretch up to meet her.]

This process accelerates every time you use your Arts?
[This might be rhetorical, but a confirmation is always helpful.]
