[There's a groan and a crunch of leaves before silence, and then...]


...was I just doing something?




[[ooc: Yes. Cloud has forgotten that he died. Why? Because his Death Penalty is short term memory loss. Think Dory from Finding Nemo. He will occasionally repeat himself or completely forget a conversation you had with him just moments before. Not all the time, though! That would get annoying. o/ ]]

....

This is pretty familiar, don't you think?

[Voice]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

...I don't think I follow you.

[Voice]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Think back!

When I first arrived in Luceti, I told you the same thing. (Of course, I didn't know they were trees back then...)

[Voice]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

...oh, right right. I remember that.

I guess I should be more specific...except I really can't be. It's just trees and trees and more trees. Should I try walking east?

[Voice]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

East would probably be good. I'll head for the forest to look for you. If you spot the village, let me know, alright? It'd be helpful to know how far north or south you are.

[Voice]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Got it.

[Crunch crunch, Cloud's on the move.]

...by the way, do you know why I'm out here?

[Voice]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

... oh... that. Right.

.....

It was the Geostigma. You... ah... died.

[Voice]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[The crunching stops.]


...I died?


[More silence.]

Is everyone all right?

[Voice]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

We're fine, really. We knew you'd come back.

[Voice]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Good.

As long as everyone is okay.

[Voice]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

You might get a few surprises when you get home, actually.

[Voice]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Really? Like what?

[Voice]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Well, for one thing, it looks like this experiment affected Denzel, too.

...Also, you're engaged again, so be extra nice to Tifa.

[Voice: 1/2]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Denzel, huh? What-

...

[Voice: 2/3 I lied]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Voice: 3/3]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

WH-WHAT?!

[Voice]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

You proposed on your deathbed. Kinda tactless, but so like you.

[Voice]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Oh sweet Holy Simon, tell me you're joking. Tell me I'm not that stupid.

[Voice]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Sorry, I can't tell you that!

[Voice]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Thwack. You get the sound of Cloud smacking his head against a tree.]

[Voice]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Hey, don't hurt yourself. She needs that head of yours intact.

I'm not far from the forest now. Any clue where you are?

[Voice]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Why? It's obviously not being used much.

[Cloud sighs.]

No, the trees haven't even so much as thinned. I must be in really far.

[Voice]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Well, you never know. She might find a use for it one way or another.

Alright, I'll just have to keep looking!

[Voice]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

No, no, don't come in any farther; we'll just miss each other completely. Stick around at the treeline, I'll be able to see you once I get out of here.

[Voice]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

If you're sure. I'll be waiting here, so don't take too long.

How do you feel, anyway? Are you missing anything besides your memory of what happened before?
