[skyagain]

Yeah. With the right materia.

[ there's something very funny about a balloon to crush your enemies, but cloud has access to the fat chocobo summon and cannot talk ]

Guess that's another thing we've got in common.

[guestservices]

[i love you fat chocobo.]

Guess so. We can only use certain ones, too, if we have the right heartbinders or stones or stuff. It's why I thought the rocks Goat gave us might've been holding onto someone.

[skyagain]

Nope. He just... thought they were pretty.

[ shaking his head. ]

[guestservices]

[SWEET LESSA...]

Well he wasn't wrong. [they. gesture to the shelving unit in their room where the rock is actually sitting.

they kept it.]

[skyagain]

You kept it?

[ he sounds both amused and resigned somehow ]

[guestservices]

Of course I did. [in a tone of "why are you surprised?"] Maybe it's stupid but...figured it was important to remind myself about what happened there.

[skyagain]

... It's not stupid. [ a beat ] Well. Maybe you could've picked better than a rock.

[guestservices]

[they just stare at him from under the hood.]

Well it wasn't like I was gonna keep the condom. [flatly.]

[skyagain]

You were there two months, you got other stuff.

[ [glimmer voice] WHY DIDNT YOU KEEP THE PILLOW ]

[guestservices]

And I kept a lot of that, too. [stop the cat pillow is literally on the bed buried in other pillows.] But the rock still mattered.

[skyagain]

I guess Goat'd be happy to hear it.

[ even if cloud is dubious ]

[guestservices]

He seemed happy when I told him I kept it in the Realm in the first place. [pets for the meow wow.] I doubt people are keeping any of the stuff you guys got at the beginning of your stay here either.

[skyagain]

Razor's decent.

[ don't just pick the weapon, cloud ]

[guestservices]

You have a giant sword, you know.

[skyagain]

That's why I only said it was decent.

[guestservices]

Do you even still have it...?

[skyagain]

Sure. Never had to use it, but you never know.

[guestservices]

[considers this...]

Guess it's not a bad idea to have something you can reach faster than the sword if your back's against the wall.

[skyagain]

[ or if he hits the sword against the top of a door. ]

Yours ... you summon it, right?

[guestservices]

Yup. [a pause.] It's with me. I can probably show you later if you're curious.

[when the contract's over, they mean.]

[skyagain]

... Sure. When all this is over. Aerith'll want to see it, too.

[guestservices]

[there's a little hum.]

Think you'd be up to go a couple of rounds?

[fight them!!]

[skyagain]

Will you?

[ after draining their mp for eight weeks???? ]

[guestservices]

Well...maybe a little bit of a break first. But after that!

[skyagain]

Maybe Aerith'll have an ether. I lost all my inventory coming here.
