[Relief washes over him in thick waves at the sight of her, at the sound of her voice, at the calming reassurance that it brings. She's alright, she's alive and she's alright and despite whatever distance currently separates them, it's enough.]

Yeah. I'm - [Already gearing up to lie, to tell her that he's alright, that he's fine, that she shouldn't worry. But she will, she'll worry despite whatever words and reassurances he offers and there's comfort to be found within the truth.] I'll be alright. I'm still at the hospital. I probably won't head back out until tomorrow.

I'll head north. We'll meet somewhere in the middle.

[He wasn't fond of the idea of her traveling alone, especially considering the manner in which they had died, but at the moment, neither of them had very much choice.

Hesitation fills him as she speaks, as her voice becomes unsteady with the question.]


Yeah. [So many people were gone, so many people they knew, that they called their friends.] You gonna be okay?

[Those words cause a crack to form within his heat, deep and bleeding, even as his chest tightens, emotions rising up far too quickly to stamp down.]

I wish I was there too.

[More than anything, he wishes he could be at her side, could look at her and tell her that it's alright, that everything is going to be fine.]

[Something tears from his throat, a sort of stranded amusement, the emotion forced.]

Yeah. I guess we are.

[Even as he speaks his eyes are falling closed, trying to keep the more painful emotions from playing upon his face, not wanting to worry her or make things any worse than they are were.]

Tifa, I - I'm sorry, I should have tried harder to protect you.

[If she hadn't, if she had faced that danger alone, if she had paid this price alone, than the guilt would be worse, would be far more overwhelming and powerful. He had failed, a bitter, painful defeat. He had failed to protect her, had failed to keep her alive.

But they had fought together, at each other's sides. They had paid the same price, had suffered the same fate. They had kept their promise, to fight until the end, to do so together. No matter what.]


We made a promise. That neither of us would fight alone. I'm not breaking another one.
meteorrains: (I'm Tripping Over Myself)

[personal profile] meteorrains 2016-05-29 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
Me too.

[If they hadn't been hindered by the limitations of this place, if he'd only had his enhancements, his sword, they likely would have fared far better. But thinking about what could have been, going over and over and over one particular scenario trying to ascertain what had went wrong and what could have been changed to guarantee a different outcome was nothing more than a waste of precious energy.]

What should we tell everyone?
meteorrains: (I Gave You Attention)

[personal profile] meteorrains 2016-05-29 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
Then we won't.

[It wasn't as if anyone had seen or heard anything. They could practically tell everyone what ever they chose and they wouldn't know any better.]

We got trapped in the tunnels.

[A lie, but a believable one. As long as they both stuck to it, as long as neither one told another single soul, then the secret would remain safe.

There's a moment's hesitation, another deep intake of breath before he speaks.]


Yeah. I did.
meteorrains: (I Cut You Out Entirely)

[personal profile] meteorrains 2016-05-29 06:06 am (UTC)(link)
[Well prepare yourself, Tifa, because him telling you is definitely not going to make that any better.]

I'll be fine, Tifa. I just can't feel anything.

[Figures.]

Nothing. Not the tablet, not my gloves. Just the cold.

[They're apologizing to each other an awful lot for two people who just got murdered together.]

I've been through worse. I'll be fine. I just - wish you were here.
meteorrains: (I'm Tripping Over Myself)

[personal profile] meteorrains 2016-05-30 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
[It's almost believable when she says it. Almost.]

Sure you won't get tired of me?
meteorrains: (Hidden Meanings Deep Inside)

[personal profile] meteorrains 2016-05-30 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
Is that a challenge?

[Good to know he didn't lose that dorky sense of humor.]
