Tifa, can I talk to you? Off the record, please. Jenny, I need to talk to you too.

Sigmund, is everything all right? Anything on finding Mark yet? It's been a day or so...




...is anybody here opposed to us keeping a census?

...hey, uh. Goddammit.

Sorry if...y'know. I. Yeah.

[Action?] Y/N?

[She'll be waiting.]

[Doesn't take Cloud TOO long to get to house 36; he knocks on the door.]

[Action!] <333

[mydadsthedoctor.livejournal.com]

[He won't be waiting long before she answers it and invites him in.]

Hey Cloud. C'mon in.

[Action~] <3333

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Hey Jenny. [Cloud does indeed go inside, and waits for her to show him to where he can sit before doing so.]

I'll get right to the point. I've got some memories I can't handle, and I need them gone before something bad happens.

[She'll show him to the dining table, and grab a seat there, motioning for him to feel free to do them same.]

You said 4 years of memories though. Mind if I ask what memories are bothering you so much?

[Action~] this is bound to get uncomfortable with all these hearts. :|

[Cloud takes a seat and a deep breath, folding his hands atop the table. Calm as possible, he tells Jenny about what had happened in Nibelheim, the four years of captivity and the year on the run.]

[Action~]

[She listens intently until he finishes, not interrupting for a moment, her facial expression not giving away any of her thoughts, and only nodding to indicate she was still listening. When he's done, she'll be silent for a moment in thought before speaking.]

I suppose I can see why you'd want to forget them, but are you sure you want to do this?

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[She didn't need to know about Jenova's voice.]

Very.

[Action]

[mydadsthedoctor.livejournal.com]

[She nods to indicate she understands.]

Alright, in that case we can do this now if you're up for it.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Right now would be really great.

[Action]

[mydadsthedoctor.livejournal.com]

[She nods before getting up and motioning him to follow her, knowing that this would be easier in the living room.]

Right, c'mon then.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Into the living room they go!]

What exactly happens during this...? I mean, should I... [What was it Leto had told him before he took the spice?] I dunno, find my center or something?

[Action]

[mydadsthedoctor.livejournal.com]

You're just going to be put in a sleep-like state, and I'm going to convince your subconscious mind to do the rest. All that you need to do is relax.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Oh...right, okay. [Cloud does his best to settle himself down. He's not really nervous, per se, just...well, okay, he's nervous. Hopefully this wouldn't go wrong and turn him back into a fourteen-year-old.]

[Action]

[mydadsthedoctor.livejournal.com]

[She's noticing this.]

Cloud, calm down. There's nothing to be nervous about. Just try to relax as best you can.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

All right, all right. [Calming down is a go.]

[Action]

[mydadsthedoctor.livejournal.com]

Okay, good. Now close your eyes, relax, and listen to my voice.

[Her voice is becoming calm, and mellow as she speaks.]

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Oh hey, that's very soothing.]

Okay.

[Action]

[mydadsthedoctor.livejournal.com]

[That's the whole point. She's going to continue talking that way until this whole thing is over.]

Only listen to my voice. You can't hear anything else. Just my voice.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[It's really not going to take much work for Cloud to fall asleep, Jenny, he's seriously tired.]

Mmm...

[Action]

[mydadsthedoctor.livejournal.com]

[Yeah, but she's trying to put him in a trance, not put him completely to sleep.]

Now, I'm going to count back from ten, when I reach 5, you're going to feel consciousness fading, and when I reach one, you'll be asleep, but you'll still be able to hear my voice.

[With that, she starts slowly counting backwards.]

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Well hopefully that works out well. Cloud more than likely looks trance-y and not asleep by the time she reaches one.]

[Action]

[mydadsthedoctor.livejournal.com]

Alright, now I want you to forget. I want you to forget... [And then she'll be listing off everything that Cloud said he wanted to forget very carefully so she was sure she didn't make him forget any memories he wanted to keep. When she finishes, she waits a moment before speaking again.]

Have you forgotten those memories?

[She wanted to be sure that those memories had been forgotten before bringing Cloud out of the trance.]

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Yes. [His voice is flat and quiet, hopefully how it should sound, what with him in this trance thingy.]

[Action]

[mydadsthedoctor.livejournal.com]

Good. Now, I'm going to count up to ten. When I reach five, you're going to start waking up, and when I reach ten, you'll open your eyes, and be completely awake again. It will seem like only a few seconds have past, and you the memories you have forgotten will stay forgotten.

[With that, she starts counting up to ten just as slowly as before.]
