If it costs nothing but a silly task where one might have to wear some silly clothing out and about, what is the reason why you would want to be anything less than at your best?
...I am not sure. [frowning deeply.] I'm afraid for mine, I may need to ask about your emotional well-being at some point. But for tonight, I will refrain.
It is sufficient for now, at least. I never knew what to do with any of it. It happens, and then it is over, and none of it lasts, so...it feels utterly pointless to dwell.
Sheila and I got to know one another as well as we do after one of those. It was very...bad. And I still don't really like to talk about it. But I'm glad that I...that I came to know Sheila. And Vira, and Takeru.

no subject
[ he is still favoring his left arm but there's no secret blood anywhere ]
I would've taken just Estelle's and Jason's first aid if I had to, but I can't say I mind the healing spell.
[ WHERE IS HIS FUCKING CURE MATERIA ]
no subject

no subject
[hmm.]
No thanks is required.
no subject
[ but he nods. he understands. being thanked is horrible unless you specifically want to be ]
no subject
They are very weird jobs.
no subject
[ looks at her outfit. ]
What do they get out of this, exactly?
no subject
no subject
[ he is just tired. sometimes you have so much trauma you kind of blink at this one, go "ok it's fake(?)" and lock it away in the trauma vault ]
no subject
And yet...
no subject
Hard to say nothing from it lingers, yeah.

Might not totally apply this time 'round.
no subject
[listen she can't help being insanely awkward.]
no subject
[ ANYWAY ]
So who was in the other group?
no subject
no subject

no subject

We never had more than four in any week.
