** The song, "I, 0, Your Fellow" that plays during that exchange, which really hammers the sadness of the moment home. The remix on the official album is even more of a TearJerker.

** Before that, there was [[spoiler:Zero's own goodbye after the Elf Wars' over; he was going to seal himself before X comes in. The poignant talk - and, in the end, X's anguished scream - makes it all sadder. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALsaI1vyW4Q Watch it here.]]]]

* The Japan-only (prior to ''Collection'') vocal intro to the ''Zero 4'' credits theme "Promise -Next New World-" translates as follows:
-->''Always overflowing in my heart,''\\
''My feelings for you.''\\
''There is no forever,''\\
''so I want you by my side for now.''
** Accompanying [[spoiler:Ciel crying alone under a tree]], as the song becomes entirely instrumental. BittersweetEnding indeed...
** And after that, [[spoiler:she believes that Zero is still out there, and will be waiting for him to come back. What comes next? Zero's broken helmet lying in the desert, indicating he's been KilledOffForReal.]]
* This dialogue:
-->'''X''': "Since you've disappeared I've been fighting this war alone against an uncountable number of Mavericks for nearly a hundred years... Battle after battle...so painful and so sad...but the hardest part was when I discovered that I no longer cared about [[strike: fighting enemies]] the enemies I fought..."
** What makes it worse is that [[MartialPacifist it's X]] we're talking about.
* There's also Alouette. Zero's [[spoiler:last (optional) conversation with her has the girl extract a promise from Zero that the three of them (including Ciel) should someday explore Area Zero together]]. Oh, and [[spoiler:if her dialogue as Prairie is taken into consideration, it might imply that she's fallen for Zero herself (seeing as she had feelings for Giro, Zero's {{Expy}}, because she herself stated that the man reminded her of Zero.]]
