[soldiernoclass]

Y'know, eventually I am gonna get tired of you dangling Cloud in front of me like a carrot on a stick. Ditto Aerith. They're my friends, not incentives.

Which doesn't mean I still wouldn't go anywhere for them, or that I don't want to...

But you really oughta work on your sales pitch, if you think I'm gonna jump just because you say so. After all, this time is different, right? Especially with that whole tattoo situation. I'll admit, the placement's not bad - compared to those first choices - but isn't it kinda... big? And pink?

No offense, but that's not exactly my style you're thinking of.

You're at least going somewhere...

[soldiernoclass]

Well, I'll give you that. I've done the whole Muse Limbo thing, and it's no fun being stuck.

No plans in your immediate future?

[altostratus]

[Cloud sort of shakes his head.]

Not for me, but for someone else...

[soldiernoclass]

Too bad. If you hang in there, though, I'm sure you'll get your turn.

[altostratus]

Maybe...

The mun's taking someone else since there's a me there already.

[soldiernoclass]

That's right; you're pretty popular, aren't you?

[altostratus]

I guess.

[soldiernoclass]

'I guess.'

You're not even gonna try and brag a little? [ He basically just admitted you're the favorite, Cloud. His poor, wounded ego ]

[altostratus]

[He... doesn't really care about being a favorite... and kinda wished he wasn't.]

No point.

[executive_order]

Well, sometimes it's best to offer the... help... incentive.

[soldiernoclass]

No fun.

[soldiernoclass]

Who're you calling the help?

[executive_order]

The help, obviously.

[altostratus]

You bring plenty of fun for the both of us, and then some.

[soldiernoclass]

Right. And that's got what to do with me?

[soldiernoclass]

You could sound a little happier about it. It's not easy always being cheerful around you, you know.

[altostratus]

[Cloud? Happy? rofl]

Your fun is fine... Really...

Sometimes....

[soldiernoclass]

[ IT'S HAPPENED

like once

a little

shut-up ]

Aw, don't worry about it. I like a challenge.

[executive_order]

It's obvious that the easiest way to get you to do anything is to offer you a treat.

[soldiernoclass]

If that's what you think, you really don't know the first thing about me, Junior.

[executive_order]

With the right motivations, are you saying that you wouldn't do anything?

[soldiernoclass]

Anything? Not a chance. Even a SOLDIER has limits.

[executive_order]

Even for Strife?

[soldiernoclass]

For him? Just about anything.

...What's with the Twenty Questions, anyway?

[executive_order]

Considering we are going to be in the same place, it is good to know more about you. Simple as that.
