Aerith's back. Wonder if I should go in there with the Restore again... She was kidnapped. No warning, nothing. Stupid, stupid...she was suffering and I just stood there, again.

[A thoughtful pause, then a few metallic clicks before] ...Yoko... Don't think she's here anymore; she might've been kidnapped. Roxas was. ...no, he'll be all right. He's tough.


Everything's so uncertain. Tifa...Zack...the boys...


...damn it. Shut up.

[Oh Cloud. Y u always ask the hard questions. :|] Spike, I can't really tell you what to do because you don't know how you feel. Once you figure that out, I think you'll know what to do from there. Right now, though... my advice is to give Tifa some space to do what's best for her. If things work out, be happy for her. If they don't, then be there for her if it hurts. And if, after awhile, you really know if you're still in love with her, then try to win her back. But if you don't think you can make her happy, you can't stand in her way when she tries to find someone who can.

[Cloud scoffs, looking down again with a hand over his face.] I can't make her happy. Look at me, I can't make anyone happy.

You don't look very happy to me. [Cloud starts ticking off reasons on his fingers.] Simon's blind, which is my fault, Denzel's constantly in danger or being hurt and I can't do a thing to stop it, Tifa's furious with me, Mother's furious with me-

Stop being stupid, then! Don't you get it? You can't make someone happy all the time, it's impossible! I'm talking about general happiness - like that they're happy to be with you, and they're happy when you're happy, or if you get something you wanted and they're happy that you're happy. And when you're not being an idiot - like now - I'm pretty damned happy to have you. Simon and Denzel both love you, and your mother isn't here.

[Zack crosses his arms, waiting impatiently.] We're your family, Spike, but not by blood. Nothing's forcing us to stay with you; we're here because we want to be here.

[Cloud thought it would.] Sorry. That was-...she's not. I don't think of her like that. She's just-

I call her that in my head so she'll shut up a little bit. I don't mean it. Sorry.
