A question. [Cloud says it like it's punctuated with "for you strange people."]


If you don't have a Lifestream keeping your Planet alive, what's holding it together?

He... was? What the hell happened? [He should probably go find them. This isn't really a conversation for the journals.]

...Tseng was killed. [She hadn't heard his death, but she must have missed it, distracted by everything... and that seemed terrible in its irony, that she'd miss the passing of the man who had always watched over her. She opens her mouth to explain, but then hesitates--does Zack even know Sephiroth returned? Did Cloud ever mention it to him? Someone should... it'll probably come up eventually, especially with two "remnants" of him around.] Let's--let's not talk about it like this. I can explain what happened in person.

I can't leave. Sophie's asleep.

You two talk this over without me; I don't think I have the whole story anyway. [That and he dislikes the Turks and doesn't have anything all that nice to say about them anyway.]

[She smiles at Cloud.] Looks like you're a good babysitter after all.

Zack, I'll be in the living room.

Cloud...

[Whatever it is, maybe it's bothering Cloud too much for this. It'll be confusing enough with just Aerith... for the moment, he'll leave Cloud be.

Instead, he heads out to find Aerith in the living room.]

[Her arms are folded, head bowed in thought at first. She's hardly sure where to start explaining. She's not used to being the one who explains.

Her head lifts when Zack enters, though her expression stays more neutral, ]
A lot of things have happened between the Turks and us in AVALANCHE. ...Has Cloud told you much about what happened after we met?

From: [personal profile] wingenvy
[Right into it, huh? Well, it's understandable. This is some serious business. Zack thinks for a moment, stepping over to where Aerith is.]

Not a lot, actually. He said you guys met in Midgar after he and I split up, however that happened. And you all did a lot of travelling together... I'm not really in the know about that stuff.

["split up". She's gotten used to this lie, but there's still a small blink when he says that. Otherwise, though, her expression stays steady.]

... The reason why we were traveling... it's something you should know, I think. [She's sure Zack won't like this after Nibelheim, but. Tough cookies for everyone, pretty much; Sephiroth came back.] We were trying to find someone.

"Someone", huh? That's kinda cryptic. Anybody I know? [Colour him curious. And... oka, a little concerned, too. Why is she so tentative?]

[She nods, a soft "mm" escaping her lips.] ... Shinra reported him dead after what happened in Nibelheim, but five years later, Sephiroth resurfaced. [You can trust she's looking straight at Zack's expression as she says this.] He-- attacked Shinra headquarters and then left, saying that he was searching for the Promised Land.

[His expression probably screams "FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF" because that's just about what's going through his head when she says it. Sephiroth, alive? How the hell did he survive getting stabbed the way he did and falling into a mako pit?

...Well, it's probably a stupid question there- the obvious answer is it's Sephiroth, he can apparently survive anything. But the idea of him surviving, being alive, coming back to continue his plan...]


That's... what he said in Nibelheim...

[She nods.] Cloud knew it meant trouble right away, so we followed to figure out his plan. And it's been stopped. [She says that with a set, firm tone.] I don't know all the details because-- [Her gut does a funny little wrenching on itself at just the thought, and she lowers her eyes, her hands shifting closer in her lap.] I'm from a time after yours, but before everyone else. But they told me. Cloud and Tifa said he was dealt with. [And then remnants were trying to bring him back... Would he ever be fully gone?]

...Shinra was pursuing him as well. Tseng was run through when he got too close. [She bites her lip, still looking down at her lap.] We found him, but I couldn't think what to do...where to start...it looked awful.

From: [personal profile] wingenvy
[Zack grimaces slightly, scooting beside her and putting an arm around her shoulders. Even if they're not dating anymore, a friend is a friend, after all.] Were... you guys very close? [He never really understood the relationship between Aerith and Tseng. He seemed to always be looking after her, but... if it was just to take her to Shinra, that's not something worth grieving, is it...? ...So confusing.

Why does Shinra have to betray everyone? Dammit!]

[She looks up at him when his arm winds around her shoulders--not surprised, really, but still roused from her thoughts. The question takes a moment of thought before she offers up a tentative smile.]

We never saw eye-to-eye. I think you could give us a hundred years and we still wouldn't. But we saw each other [with a slight emphasis on those words], and he knew me. It goes a long time back, to when I was a little girl. That's why it's important.

They've been watching you that long? [That's... both depressing and borderline creepy, jeez. The poor girl.]

[Borderline creepy?]

...That's right. [Oh, that reaction. Let's not get into the laboratory doubling as a nursery. Instead, she leans lightly against Zack, the side of her head close to his shoulder with the difference in height.] So Cloud's right. He was a jerk. [She still hadn't wanted things to end like that.]

[Okay, really creepy. He was trying to be nice. :|]

...But an important jerk, huh. [Sounds familiar.] I'm sorry, Aerith.

[Oh, Turks. Gotta love 'em. Snazzy theme.]

[He says that and it's strange. Because... he died first. Because he shouldn't be sitting here to say that, as comforting as he means it--and she shouldn't be sitting here to hear it--and if they don't find their own way back then everyone will forget this place and it'll be like they were never sitting here at all--

She shakes her head before slipping out of his arm and standing up.]


It's--I'll be all right. Even if it takes a little time. There's probably other things I should tell you...

[Just not what's on her mind; instead she makes a show of ticking off on her fingers, back facing him.]

[Hmmm, is she hiding...?] I will! I promise.

[...Though, belatedly, he wonders if a promise from him actually means anything. Especially with how things turned out last time.]

[Her hands drop in the middle of a tick--the number really didn't mean anything, anyway.] Just remembering the places we went to might be hard! Kalm and Fort Condor, Junon, Costa Del Sol, the Gold Saucer amusement park, Cosmo Canyon...

...We passed through Nibelheim to get through the mountains. You saw what they did to it, right? [She's been trying to keep her tone light, but she can't help but wonder what he must have thought of the deception they were pulling, and she half-turns, looking over her shoulder at him.]

Yeah, I saw. They rebuilt the town... I couldn't believe it. Why would they bother...?

[He hadn't looked much, mind you- he'd been busy protecting Cloud.]

[She approaches the couch again, frowning. He'd been in the mansion long enough for it to be rebuilt... just how long had it been?] Most people still think of Sephiroth as a great SOLDIER. Shinra announced his death, but they never said anything about Nibelheim...there are people living there who say they've stayed their whole lives and nothing bad has ever happened.

...It was really awful, Zack. Cloud and Tifa were so upset.

...That's... really horrible. [Words don't describe, at all. He can't imagine it- their families killed, and all of it just swept under the carpet like that? So many lives had been destroyed that day... the three of them couldn't even be considered lucky to have survived it, after what they'd gone through. And Shinra just... pretended like it never happened. Ugh.] I'll try not to mention Nibelheim around them. [Not that he'd ever do that intentionally with Cloud anyway. Too many bad memories even after it burned.]
