Zack just doesn't shut up. VERY POSSIBLY LOOKING TO APP HIM SOMEWHERE

[weallfalldown]

Hey!

So I know you said two boys in one game was enough for you. But, if you have two boys in one game and then a SOLDIER in another, that's totally different, right? Come on, you know you want to. And I've just been dying to stretch my legs a little, get out there and maybe talk to some ladies. [Even if, you know, there is still that girl of his waiting at home. Its harmless flirting, sweet heart, he promises. He's coming to see you soon, so don't you worry your pretty little head.]

Anyways, it doesn't hurt you to look around a little. Expand the playing field and see if someone is just dying to have a me around. It shouldn't be too hard. Though you might want to pick up that little device of yours and play through one more time, just to get all your facts straight.

Think of Angeal and what he might say! [And he'll cough and attempt to mimic his voice.] Remember, Zack, you need to focus and know your strengths.

...Well, he never said that, but, better you doing all the paper work than me, right?

[iam_sephiroth]

Zack. [Well, if it wasn't the puppy.]

[weallfalldown]

Heeeeeey!

You're not doing that crazy thing right? Cause if you are I don't think we should be talking, man. No offense.

[iam_sephiroth]

What crazy thing? [Have a line face, Zack.]

[weallfalldown]

Oh. [Well isn't this a little awkward.]

Um, never mind. How have you been?

[embrace_yourdreams]

[He smirked at the mimic.]

Zack. Remember what I taught you?

[weallfalldown]

[He'll smile right back at you Angeal. Of course he remembers. Its like a prayer to him now.]

Embrace your dreams, and protect your honor. I remember, and I really don't think I could ever forget.

[embrace_yourdreams]

Well done. You remembered. [He smiled.]

[weallfalldown]

Well I'd hope so.

I taught it to all my recruits too.

[doingthemistything]

And I'm sure there's plenty of places that would be happy to have you.

[weallfalldown]

You think?

Well that's good news. I'm kind of excited, but there is still convincing this girl she can actually take me someplace without getting burned out.

[doingthemistything]

That's a problem a lot of muns have, I've noticed... Maybe she should find some place slow, or with lax activity checks?

[weallfalldown]

That's what she was thinking. Its just finding a nice balance.

That and I know I'm a loud mouth. Something slow might not fit, but lax activity checks would probably be better.

She was thinking about just taking me where the other guys are, but apparently that's a little too much. Bummer too since it looks like it'd be fun, yanno?

[doingthemistything]

I understand. My mun's actually had that issue for me before, wanting to send me to Soul Campaign with a bunch of my teammates.

The place where I'm at is pretty slow, and I actually haven't been there long, but I like it well enough and the AC is really easy... Is there any sort of game your mun prefers?

[weallfalldown]

Well She's a little biased. Adstringendum's been home for over a year. Something similar would be cool.

But if we're talking about me? I'd like something with maybe a little action. And not the find a job and make your way kind of place, been there done that. Survival would be a little more my speed I think.

[brother_yazoo]

Well it seems you have been busy. I think your mun is expecting you to be more adaptable I suppose.

[weallfalldown]

Adaptable is my middle name! Or, it should be, since I'm so adaptable.

But really, it isn't so hard to give into a little temptation and bad ideas, right? [He does all the time. Like deciding to have one more beer. Or Eating another doughnut.]

[brother_yazoo]

Really? I doubt that.

It depends on their point of view. However I get the feeling that either way, you would do as you please regardless. Am I right?

[weallfalldown]

Oh come on, like you'd know. You're not me are you?

And I guess. But I need marching orders first, if you get what I mean.

[brother_yazoo]

No. But you seem like that sort of person.

Indeed.

[weallfalldown]

I think she's got a spot picked out now, though.

Here's hoping it goes well.

wouldn't be himself if he did

[bothourlives]

...You wanna go somewhere just to talk to ladies?

[he picked up on the important points]

No, no he would not. ........SOOOOOO can I try my hand at enabling you a little /eyebrow waggles

[weallfalldown]

Hey, I didn't say that.

I've got one girl i'm sweet on, but it doesn't hurt to just talk to them. [Eh, Ehhhh Cloud?]

I did find a place though, actually. Turns out its just where I didn't think I was going. But, Angeal is showing up there the same time I am, so it was a little incentive.

already in two games :c my limit with this one nooooo

[bothourlives]

I guess.

[that's one lesson you didn't manage to pass on to him, sorry to say. he's still completely stupid with girls :c]

...Good that you'll have someone there, then.

[BUT YOU SHOULD HAVE COME TO SPACE WITH HIM Aerith is going to make him grey at this rate]

Thats a bummer! WELP. If ever you decide you want to go crazy and try three... C:

[weallfalldown]

Hey, girls don't bite Cloud. [Though the ones you hang out with pack quite the punch.]

Sephiroth is there too...pre-crazy, thankfully. It'll just be a little weird, seeing them is all. Hopefully it won't take too long to get back into the swing of things with the both of them.

[FUNNILY ENOUGH THAT GAME IN SPACE WAS ONE OF MY TOP PICKS BEFORE DEFAULTING BACK TO ADSTRING >>]

I'll think about it :3 been in AD before! fun game

[bothourlives]

[if you ask them nicely some of them do]

...of course not.

[But he takes that a bit literally and is obviously embarrassed, ducking his chin down and rubbing at the back of his neck. Don't be ridiculous, Zack. Girls aren't like monsters.

The next bit of news, at least, is a little interesting and worth diverting attention to instead of his ineptitude with women. MOVING ALONG.]

He was in one of the places I'm at too. It's weird. I just- [A pause, a frown, a shrug. He'd never really figured out how to deal with Sephiroth.] don't talk to him much. Don't want him to know.

[KUFUFUFU. We have fun in space okay.]

Oooh, was it recently? I've been there over a year now!

[weallfalldown]

[Ooh, you got that right Cloud. But he's a gentleman. None of that until at least the third date, right?]

Hey, what's that look for? Geez, for a sweet kid, you've sure got your mind in the gutter. [What is he going to do with you Cloud.]

I really hope I can keep my wits about me. I don't think he knows about it at all, but some guy with weird shoes just told me I'm dead. Kind of a slap in the face when you're sure you can handle a few infantry men.

Do you think i'm losing my touch?

[Zero gravity huh? Zack would love to test that out on date number 3]

It was... gosh, awhile ago. Back on LJ! I was Minato from Naruto

[bothourlives]

[...he doesn't go on dates :c]

I'm not- [Giving a look. His mind is right here! In his head! Not in a weird place!]

[huff.]

[But... he can't really stay riled up at Zack, even if his friend was a champion in doing just that.

Losing his touch. That made his chest ache, brows furrowing together as he tried to find the right thing (or anything, really) to say.]

...No. You did more than you should have.

[And it weighs down on him every day.]

[they're all hallucinating from insomnia right now, lots of fun 8D ahaha]

I don't remember xD probs didnt see you. I'm playing Syaoran and Hanna cross there currently.

[weallfalldown]

[Cloud, you are a stick in the mud.

But that expression is going to kill him. Don't look like that. He did it for you, and he doesn't regret it, even if it comes as a shock.]

Hey, don't look like that. It isn't your fault. The fighting thing comes with the hero gig, right? Just, doing my job. And even if I didn't save any one else...I'm glad I could have saved just one of my friends.

So, don't get so down.

[Oh dear. get some sleep Cloud :| ]

It was like winter '10-'11 ahaha just missed each other xD

[bothourlives]

[He can't help it!!

Can't help that either, twinges of guilt he just can't let go of (still, forgiveness came in pieces, not as a whole), even knowing he would have done the absolute same if their positions had been reversed.

It was much, much easier to die a hero than to live struggling with such a heavy legacy. With that kind of loss.

But he doesn't want to argue against it, or talk about this thing at all really. It hurt. And it always would. Didn't matter if they kept going or not.]

...okay.

[He can't 8| and Aerith went on an out of body field trip beforehand so he hasn't slept in like a week AND NOW EVERYONE IS JENOVA SOB]

FFF yeah, I joined in April 11

[weallfalldown]

[Cloud, He understands. He had to kill Angeal. And fight Genesis, and Sephiroth. They were all familiar to him, superior officers and two of them good friends. He watched Lazard die. He understands that things hurt, and while you can't forget them, its better to smile and remember than remember and regret.]

Hey, you remember when you cheered me up in Nibelheim? That's all I ever needed from you Cloud. That's payment enough, just a simple question to remind me what path I should be on, rather than shaming someones memory.

So, smile a little or I might wonder what happened to that kid I knew.

[Y'all need nyquil obviously.]

like ships in the niiiiight

[bothourlives]

[One day, he'll be able to talk to Zack without spiraling down into BAD FEELINGS territory. He just wasn't very good at saying what he really meant, at facing hurt feelings and awkwardness to show his gratitude.

His remorse, for forgetting what he'd promised not to.]

The kid you knew grew up. [Sort of. Not really. But he tried to smile anyway, because Zack wanted to see it.] ...Tifa might not agree with that if you asked her though.

[if only ;;]

PFT hahaha <3

[weallfalldown]

[There you go Kiddo, even if you're older than he is by now.]

Hey, there you go. [He'll be smiling back.] Would she now? What else do you think she'd say?

[THEY WILL SURVIVEEEE]

[bothourlives]

[Does that mean he gets to pull you in for noogies and generally just make your life hell now]

Hard to tell.

[There's the awkward again but it's different this time. ...That was probably a bad subject to bring up too. he's like having a third child around]

A lot's happened.

[weallfalldown]

[He is not your child, Cloud. He resents that. even if his attention span is like that of a six week old puppy at times.]

You never did talk much. Seems it got worse with age.

What's with the short answers, come on, you know I don't bite, Cloud.
