ALRIGHT!

I've been looking forward to this. I hope it's the same as last year. Guys, don't take this too personally, okay? It's pretty fun if you let yourself run with it! So who wants to play?

PS: Go away, Spike. You'll thank me later.

[Oh you are going nowhere. Cloud leaps up and grabs Zack's arm.]

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[What, what? He's trying to make it easier for you because he loves you!]

[Action]

[Cloud's hand slides down Zack's arm -brushes his hand- before he lets go.]

...don't.

It's... [SAY SOMETHING ELSE] It's too dangerous anyhow.

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[That little touch almost makes him shiver. Almost. He doesn't move, looking tense. This is really disturbing.]

Babysitting me again, Spike?

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

No.

[Goddammit, Zack. You always make things so difficult.] Just...don't. It was a stupid idea. You know I get those a lot.

[Action]

[wingenvy]

I don't want us to get weird, Spike. I'd rather take a risk on what's out there than ruin our friendship.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

It won't get weird. It's just an experiment. We can deal with this. [Shut up before you start begging, Cloud.]

[Action]

[wingenvy]

...Why would it be okay for you to leave, but not me?

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

It was a suggestion, a dumb, stupid suggestion. God damn it Zack, I need you here.

[Cloud lifts a hand to his forehead.]

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[...Goddammit, indeed.

So he turns around and slumps back in his chair.]

Alright.

[Cloud keeps standing, but drops his hand uselessly to his side. Doesn't look at Zack.]

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[After a bit Zack sighs, reaching out to grab Cloud's hand, tugging him towards the chair.]

C'mon, don't stand around like an idiot.

[Action]

[Cloud parks it on the armrest. :|]

I'm really pathetic sometimes.

[Action]

[wingenvy]

You are, but it's okay. We still love ya.

[Have an arm around your waist like it's the most natural thing ever. :|]

[Action]

[If Cloud weren't so busy being emo brooding whining THINKING he'd probably move away. But nope. Otherwise preoccupied.]

Nothing from Jenova after that initial...whatever that was. Just the regular buzz and whatever else she decides to mutter.

[Action]

[wingenvy]

Has it been bothering you? The buzz, I mean. I still can't hear anything...

[His grip tightens a little, protective. He hates that Cloud and the others have to suffer while he's fine.]

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Nah, I'm used to it by now. It's easy enough to block out once you know what it is. I'm more worried about everyone else; apparently everyone Kadaj inflicted with Geostigma here can hear a little bit. And Denzel, too. [Cloud scowls at the thought of that alien bitch worming around in his kids' heads, scooting a bit closer in response to the grip. Not noticing anything off quite yet.]

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[Zack heaves a little sigh and rests his head against Cloud's back. The whole issue is damned frustrating.]

We have to deal with her as soon as possible.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know. I set Reno and the other Turks on searching for her...hired them, I mean. I also asked Vincent to check around and see if he can sniff anything out. I don't know if we should launch a wide-scale search for her though...she's slippery. Might sneak right past us and terrorize the village while we're out.

[If Cloud could reach around and touch Zack's hair without breaking his elbow, he would. He'll just settle for tapping his fingers idly against Zack's arm.]

[Action]

[wingenvy]

You hired the Turks? What for, booze?

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Snort.] I'm pretty sure Reno and Rude are from roughly my time. I'll be paying them once we go back home. Cissnei...said she'd do it for free, since we're from really different times. She's a sweet girl.

[Action]

[wingenvy]

Yeah, she is. It's a shame that she's stuck in this place, but it's good to see her anyway.

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know what you... [Trailing off.

What.

Arm. When. What.]

[Action]

[wingenvy]

[Yep. Cozy. Snuggling.]

Hm?

[Action]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Sh...should he say something about it? Zack would be embarrassed...he'd look stupid if he made a big deal about this, but guy friends don't CUDDLE. It- what. Okay.

Was this like not exercising self-control? It wasn't anything major and...and...it was...kind of nice to have the comfort...]
