I'll talk to my guy about weapons. She's also got her healing and sealing techniques too...but I think if she catches us talking about her like she needs to be protected, she'll give us both a good dressing down.

[wingenvy]

Why do you think I asked you about her fighting strength and not her?

[he doesn't want to get a lecture!!]

[moseyin]

Good call.

[SIGH....]

I don't like this, going about it like we're just going to be doing damage control, but when we don't even know where these visions came from...

[wingenvy]

You've been here longer than either of us. Do they ever tell us when weird stuff like this happens? Or are we on our own here?

[moseyin]

Not much longer, [Cloud points out, and besides that he'd been sulking and hiding for most of it. Not that Zack has to know that...] But far as I can tell, no. Shit just happens. Sometimes we get a memo, if they're feeling generous.

[wingenvy]

Well, awesome.

[there's an audible thunk as he kicks a wall, very maturely.]

Back to living on the edge, I guess. Business as usual.

[Blargh, he did not miss that feeling.]

[moseyin]

You got me and Aerith now, this time. You're not alone. [Cloud's voice is firm, steady. He can't have much faith in himself for his own sake, but to protect Aerith, to protect Zack? Shit, he'll tear apart entire armies.]

[wingenvy]

[So, in retrospect, he should have known that was coming? But he sure as hell didn't, so the pause on Zack's end that follows is substantial. It's... wow.

It's been a very long time since he had anyone to reliably depend on like this.]

...You... might have to keep reminding me of that. It's kind of a new thing.

[moseyin]

As many times as it takes. Even if I get sick of it. [Aerith's not the only one who deserves to take things for herself, you know.]

[wingenvy]

Haha, well. Hopefully it won't take that long.

[he's grateful, though; it's nice that Cloud cares.]

[moseyin]

Knowing you? It'll take time to sink in.

[wingenvy]

Hey, come on! I'm not thick, just stubborn.

[moseyin]

Yeah, and I'm referring to the stubbornness, here. [He remembers you from the ShinRa days...kinda]

[wingenvy]

Hey.

[YOU'RE A LITTLE SHIT]

[moseyin]

Don't be insulted. That stubbornness- it saved my life.

...I'm grateful that you're the way you are. So, that's why if you need to hear it... [Cloud's not the type of person to think hardheadedness is a bad thing anyway, no matter how troublesome it can get.]

[wingenvy]

[oof. well now he feels a little silly.]

...yeah, okay. I'll come and find you, then.

[moseyin]

Good. [But because he can't let it get too mushy-] It'll be five hundred gil per consultation.

[wingenvy]

[wOW you cheapskate]

You can put it on my tab.

[moseyin]

I'll open one up. [Feels good to say that, too.]
