Voice testing after spending way too long watching cut scenes on youtube again

[weallfalldown]

Hey, director.

Its kind of nice, getting to stretch my legs a little. Do some squats. Exercise. Thanks for that, really. I mean, the lifestream is nice and all, but you can only do so much, watching.

Though I gotta say, you're a little too enthusiastic to give me any marching orders right now. And I love that you'd love to give me a family, little puppies running the yard and a beautiful wife waiting inside the picket fence kind of deal, hell, its every man's dream. But I gotta square a few things away first.

Like find that dream girl of mine. Again, I mean. Since I already did find her once, but thats the problem with dying. You lose things. People forget you. But maybe not. I trust Cloud did his job right.

Maybe I even have my name on a statue somewhere, or some metal of honor tucked away in some old guy's drawer. That's wishful thinking, but it was right to trust him. I bet he did alright for himself.

[weallfalldown]

Well that's a fine how-do-you-do.

[weallfalldown]

I have this sinking feeling that the more I talk to you, the more you're going to sound like a broken record.

[letsnotfight]

[ 'All right for himself.' Yeah. Pretty much. Almost. Sometimes. Maybe. ]


...squatting's for warm ups. You'll need a sturdier routine.

[weallfalldown]

[Hey bud. Stiffen up that upper lip okay? He's sure you did just fine.]

Hey, who said I wasn't just getting warmed up, huh?

[letsnotfight]

I think I implied it.

[weallfalldown]

I guess you did. Maybe you can give me a run for my money then? Something studier.

[He can't help but grin at you though. You look good, Cloud. Much better than when he last saw you.]

Now that you're talking rather than staring at me with those big blues of yours, I mean.

[gardeningaia]

Hey, but wouldn't your beautiful wife be your dream girl?

[weallfalldown]

Well, they'd be one in the same, but like I said, I've got some stuff to do first.

Like read a few dozen letters and figure out just how much a ring costs these days.

[gardeningaia]

...Silly. I think you need to review those wishes first.

[weallfalldown]

Well since you narrowed them all down. Twenty three was it? To one.

That's pretty impressive. [He still has that piece of paper in his pocket Aerith.]

[cloudywithachanceof]

[Zack, what are you doing he doesn't even.]

... You never told me you wanted a statue.

[weallfalldown]

I wasn't being serious...Though that would be pretty damn cool.

I think its enough I thought myself a hero. I mean, you save one life that counts for something right?

[cloudywithachanceof]

Then you should have mentioned it earlier.

[Just think, Zack. If you had actually said something, that statue in the middle of Edge? Could have been of you.]

Don't get cocky, Zack.

[weallfalldown]

Well I'm mentioning it now. So hop to it, buddy. [Seriously. Teasing you has always been fun.]

I'm not. Its just nice, to see what you've done with what I managed to give you.

[creepy_son_of_a]

Every man's dream?

[weallfalldown]

Well, maybe not everyma- [Wait, oh god damnit.]

Hey....you um, you alright in the head, man?

[creepy_son_of_a]

[AU is fun.]

As alright as can be expected after what I found in Nibelheim.

[weallfalldown]

[That isn't comforting, Sephiroth. In his mind thats like death sentences here.]

So batshit insane, got it.

baw biffle

[bothourlives]

[He eventually got things sorted out!

We just won't talk about that whole forgetting people thing.]

Puppies, huh.

Oh, bro. He missed you.

[weallfalldown]

Lots and lots of puppies, man.

[Because you know he would make the best father.] Or I could adopt, but...I kinda like the thought of a pregnant wife. Gives me an excuse to dote on her more without too much teasing.

Though I guess I have to be careful. That could get scary real quick, huh?

Not as much as he's missed you :c

[bothourlives]

[He hadn't quite made the 'puppies=children' connection and coughs, bringing a closed hand up to cover his mouth in a mixture of amusement and embarrassment.

Poor Aerith.]

There's a lot of kids without parents already, in Edge.

[Never enough room, only so much he and Tifa could do. Everyone's trying to move up and move on in the aftermath of a life turned upside down, and he's doing his best to make sure the kids don't end up falling through the cracks, forgotten, in the process.

Being a hero to one little boy has been a lot more rewarding than the occasional perk of being 'one of the guys that saved the world. twice. three times now?' Or a statue. The bad guys tear those down anyway, you know?]

He's going to miss your smile more Cloud. give him some sunshine!

[weallfalldown]

Really? I..I don't think i've been dead too long. Did something happen? [He's practically a fresh corpse, you'll have to give him the details. Or spare him from them.]

Kids without parents. Now that's a sad deal. I'd adopt every single one of them. Set up in that Church my girl likes, huh? Sell flowers and make a pretty decent living.

[And don't you get him started on being hero to some kid, Cloud. You definitely made him feel like one. He didn't save the world per say, but he saved the man who saved it twice, or was that three times, Cloud?]
