Don't touch my youngest, he explodes.


Yuffie, we're gonna leave tomorrow. Also Cid, join my party. Sorry Leto, but I think for the good of the plot you're going to have to bite the big one. We'll bring you back later, don't worry.


[[Locked to Tifa//80% Unhackable]]

...I'm sorry. Can I talk to you?


[[Private//85% Unhackable]]

Tell me the truth; did you take her, or did she go back?

[Simon and Cloud are out walking about because the boy keeps bloodying up the house and scaring Cloud half to death. ...why he thought a walk outside would be a good idea is beyond me.]

So it's a sidequest?

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

...no, I told you, it's plot.

[wingenvy]

But it's out of the way. Sidequests are always in the middle of nowhere.

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

It's not that far out of the way, it's only five days away.

[wingenvy]

Five days is pretty far! You don't even have a truck!

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

You can't put a truck in the tunnels anyhow.

[wingenvy]

What about an airship?

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Zack, there isn't even an airship here.

[wingenvy]

I'm just saying, without a vehicle it takes longer, so it's not as easy to just run off!

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

I know it takes longer, and it's not like I want to tromp around through the desert. But I have to.

[wingenvy]

You're so easily manipulated.

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Probably wasn't intentional, but that one stung.]

Thanks.

[wingenvy]

[And Zack's not really thinking in Luceti terms, stuck in Crisis Core mode.]

...What?

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[And meanwhile, Cloud is stuck in FF7 mode...where he's a puppet.]

Nothing.

Talk to you later.

[wingenvy]

Cloud.

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

I'll talk to you later.

[wingenvy]

....

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Cloud definitely isn't responding. But Zack probably knows where to find him if he wants to talk.]

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[And Zack gives him some time before heading into his room, knocking on the frame.]

Cloud?

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Cloud is packing because when he's upset he gets either really hopelessly annoyingly emo or productive. Good sign that it's the latter.]

Hey.

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[While he was waiting, Zack had a chance to think. Thus, by now he's figured out what he did wrong.]

...I'm sorry.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Cloud stuffs a few more shirts into a bag -folding, what folding- and shakes his head, though he doesn't look at Zack.] It's fine. I know you didn't mean it like that. I'm being sensitive.

[Action]

[wingenvy]

Well, I was insensitive. I should've been more careful with what I said.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

It's fine. [Stuff stuff stuff. Gonna need pants, those go in too. Who gives a damn if they're wrinkled.]

Re: [Action]

[wingenvy]

[Cloud you are so obvious.]

...I never know how to make this stuff up to you.
