"Hm, I can see how that joke would fade away at times." But then Frederick pauses, looking at his chocobo as though he's still trying to see the horse that was originally there. "Remarkably, no. She is still very much the same."
Then he pauses for a moment, and continues, "Though, her ways of showing affection have changed. Before, she would nuzzle, now she--" As though, on cue, the chocobo opens her beak and attempts to place Frederick's head within it.
Togusa bursts into laughter when Buttercup tries to show Frederick her love in a new way. Okay. They're adorable. He shakes his head in disbelief. "Maybe she's experiencing things the same way we are. I wonder if she remembers being a horse?" That's really Togusa's big question, that no one can answer yet.
"What do you think of them? Now that you've had some time to get to know the differences?" He came here for a different reason, but while they're on the birds, Togusa would like Frederick's opinion.
Frederick just frowns at the laugh, but he just accepts it. He waits for Buttercup to get her fill of trying to fit Frederick's head within her beak. She stops and pulls herself back into the stable, and Frederick sighs, trying to fix his hair so it is at least somewhat presentable. "That would be remarkable, if so. It's a shame that we cannot ask them and receive an answer that we can understand."
Frederick pauses again. He turns his head to look at Buttercup, trying to get his thoughts back in order.
"I try not to let my thoughts on horses color my thoughts on chocobo. On their own, they are remarkable creatures."
He turns back to Togusa and offers him a sheepish smile, "However, I find myself prefering horses more."

"That," he finishes flatly.
