We have a slight problem.

Any further plans of taking out Jenova need to be kept from myself, Sephiroth, Angeal, my boys, Ichigo and possibly Yuffie.

Speaking of- Yuffie, have you been hearing anything strange?

...Why do I feel like we've talked about this before?

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

We probably have.

[Action]

[wingenvy]

I don't remember, though... weird.

Anyway. What do you wanna do?

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

You stay.

[Action]

[wingenvy]

......

[LAUGH]

You're hopeless.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

I'm not hopeless. You're just not leaving me again is...

[...blink. That was strange. Why did he say it like that?]

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[....Ouch. Right, right. Back then...]

I didn't want to leave you.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Zack, don't look like that. It hurts.] ...forget it. I don't remember anyhow.

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[That one kind of hurts, too, but he's not about to say so. He doesn't really want Cloud to have that memory anyway.]

Sorry.

[Action]

[Cloud purses his lips before reaching over and tugging Zack into a hug. He's really hating this sad!Zack business.]

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[Zack doesn't resist, arms lifting to hold him back, though not romantically this time. He sort of wishes he could forget a lot of the things Cloud had.]

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Well, at least this experiment would let Cloud do this sort of thing without feeling so awkward. That was good at least. He dragged a hand through Zack's hair and rubbed his back.]

Sorry. Maybe someday...I'll be able to do it. And I'll just start to remember on my own.

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[Mumbling now.]

I don't want you to remember, Spike. I just want to forget.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Cloud continues to comb his fingers through Zack's hair...and then-]

...maybe you can.

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[Wait, what? What was Cloud-

...oh. Oh. That thing he had done to seal up his memories...]

Cloud... no. I don't want anyone screwing around with my memories.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

But if it hurts you...you said you wanted to forget.

[Action]

[wingenvy]

That doesn't mean I'd let someone else make me forget. I need to hold on to my memories, Cloud, whether I want them or not.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

...all right. [Cloud sighs; nothing he can do to help. Now he understands how Zack feels about this whole Jenova business. How frustrating.]

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[Zack smiles faintly, giving Cloud's hair a little ruffle, expression obviously grateful.]

I'll keep the suggestion in mind, though, just in case. Thanks, Spike.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Goddammit. Ruffling hair. Cloud leans into the touch a little bit though...] Fine, fine...

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[And Zack's touch lingers. Just a little bit.] You need to relax, man, or you'll never survive the week.

I think I need to find a more comfortable couch. That could help.

[Action]

[wingenvy]

You can sleep in my bed if you want.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[wingenvy]

[...askjhkjhjkf.] I meant we can switch. I'll take the couch for a few nights and... we can switch. Yeah. Sorry.
