Fail Filtered to: Sephiroth
General, I've got good news and bad news. Got somewhere private enough that we can talk?

Open to Network, not fail-locked:
So, uh, I got a question for you guys. Anybody know where I can get a sword around here? Mine seems to have not made the trip with me and it feels weird to not have it, so...[sheepish look is go] I'd just really appreciate it if I could get a new one or something. Or if somebody could tell me they've seen my old one. It's about six feet long, weighs around 50 pounds...pretty hard to miss, but I can't find it anywhere.

[No doubts there. Shame he didn't inherit the smiling habit, though. He really could stand to smile a lot more.]

Sounds good. I'm gonna head to the Library on Floor 19 to meet up with Seph in a few minutes. Meet me there?

[ Cloud twitches a little at Sephiroth's name. He knew it wasn't the same one, the same person that he just finished defeating in the ruins of Shinra, but it was still hard to get use to. Cloud nodded. ]

I'll meet you there.

...It's good to see you again, Zack.

[Zack sees the twitch, and though he wonders just what caused it, he figures that Cloud will speak up when he's ready. So he'll leave it alone for now, grinning as he nods.]

Good to see you too, man. But you might not want to say that until after we meet in person, okay? You might change your mind by then.

[ Just... Don't ask him yet. He needed to get it straight in his mind before tossing it all out there. There is a ghost of a smile on Cloud's face, hints of it in his voice. ]

You better not give me a noogie. Those hurt.

[Hey, Zack can be a patient man sometimes...even if he wriggles like a puppy the rest of the time. Also, his grin gets just a bit wider now; Cloud really needs to smile more, but that's a good start.]

You might get lucky, you know. Kinda hard to give you a noogie if I'm right and you're taller than me.

I'm not that tall. [ Although it was nice that Zack noticed the growth spurt. ]

I dunno about that, man. Chocobos do have pretty major growth spurts sometimes, so that may be just another way you're like 'em.

[Tease tease teeeaassee. Of course he noticed!]

I hope you're not thinking about trying to grow me some greens here to see if I will get taller than you.

[Zack snickers at that, shaking his head a second later. Tempting, but no.]

Well, a salad or two wouldn't kill you, but I think we can stay away from the greens. They don't taste too good.

So does that mean you've tried them?

Uh...maybe once or twice? [embarrassed pup is now embarrassed. Yes, he ate them. No, he won't do it again.]

[ He can't help it, he starts to laugh. Sort of. Hiding it a little. ] Only you, Zack.

[Oh, you're gonna try and hide your laugh, Chocobo? Sorry, Puppy isn't letting that happen. Nope.]

Only me what, man? You gotta give me more details than that.
