Ah, Young Adult. I mean, my view is kinda skewed because I'm old, si.
[She chuckles quietly. She'd only worry more for Cloud if she knew how vulnerable he had been the past few years.
She's quiet for a minute or two, thinking of what Angeal said.]
A killing tool, huh. And one likely fawned over in the public eye, touched and expected to be little more than a doll, perhaps.
[She hums.]
I appreciate your candor, especially since this came out of nowhere. Thank you Angeal. I hope...him making the choice will make a difference for him, in the long run.
Cloud's a good guy. I know he is. And Sephiroth ... used to be. One of the best. I'm a little biased in hoping maybe Cloud can bring the best out in him again.
[Not that kind of a relationship.. but one that should have lasted a lifetime anyway. He sounds cheerful enough about it.
But Genesis is gone, and Sephiroth doesn't remember. It's shaken off quickly before it can become melancholy.]
I don't think Seph's had a reason, since coming here, to bother to try. He's got a reason now. We all need something to motivate us, you know? I'll be rooting for both of them, either way. If nothing else comes out of his boat trip, maybe at the end of it they'll still have that.

[Her voice is light and playful, before her tone sombers.]
Cloud seems like a good kid. Just confused sometimes. Sephiroth...well. I think he could be, if he wanted to try.
I might just bother Sephiroth, if only because I like his energy. Sometimes, it's nice to be around someone with his kind of...low keyness.

[If one of them was Sephiroth and it was romantic...well, she's going to be good and not picture that.
Right now.]
You mean for Cloud? Mm, maybe. If Cloud nudged him along, because...Sephy seems not exactly comfortable but kind of...
Apathic maybe? Or comfortable. It seems easier for him to not try.
Which is why I'm planning to bug him.
We could do it together if you like! I'm planning to read to him. Any suggestions?

[And he'd botched it. All of it. Was it really just the degradation, or his own flaws?]
I think Cloud can goad him into doing things. And it might do Cloud some good too, he needs some confidence.

Actually, yes. See if you can find the G edition of an epic poem named Loveless.

[Love was love, and it sounds bittersweet on Angeal's side. But...who knows. And maybe Angeal could find other kinds of love, given the chance.]
If Cloud didn't think I was so batty, maybe I'd nudge him. Eh. Maybe I'll see if he can adjust to me, then I'll nudge.
...Loveless? You think they have that in the library?
no subject
I've found pretty much EVERYTHING is in the library if you look hard enough.
no subject
But...sure. I'll look for it. See what happens.
