[No feed of Hope today, but you do get a view of his knee and a hand... He's sitting down on the ground, and in the distance is his Cubone, throwing the bone club at a tree and having to run and fetch it after it clunks against the trunk and clatters to the ground ( Read more... )

[Coming to crouch beside you with medkit in hand, Hope. Don't mind her one bit.]

Depends on the people involved. Some take more convincing than others.

[fff-- eyes that kit there.]

What was it like with me? [Because obviously she knows how it is.]

[No fuss, no muss. Just a nod as she tends to the worse looking marks without comment about it.]

At first. It changed after Odin appeared.

[Kneejerk reaction happens when he stiffens at that, but he just lets her do it.]

Yeah, I remember that. Him. It was just like that, huh?

[It doesn't take long for her to finish and put the kit away, shifting to sit beside him.]

Close enough. I didn't want to trust you back then, and he doesn't want to now. [Her eyes narrow a bit as she looks to the Cubone.] Let's just hope he learns faster than I did.

[Stares at her in surprise.] But wasn't it fast for you?

[She shakes her head. It almost hurts to admit this. Almost.] Not as fast as you think. It took a little time to get used to the idea of letting someone in again.

[Shuffles a little closer.] Me, huh? Not Sazh, not Vanille? Just because I followed you around like an attention-starved kid?

[He's not denying he was a bit of a brat back then.]

[A glance over at him. She sees that shuffle, Hope. But, hey, she's staying still and just nodding.] Vanille and Sazh knew how to handle themselves in a fight. Besides, better an attention-starved teenager following me than an overly perky girl or someone who could barely keep his balance half the time.

[She smiles fondly down at him now, shifting do he doesn't have to shuffle quite as much.]

[Pulls his knees up to his chest, and rests his chin on them.]

Well, Vanille was a l'Cie already, and Sazh had guns. All I had was a thing I bought at a shop. Wouldn't that have been better?

[She shakes her head, looking at but not seeing Cubone.] Not at the time. Sazh didn't agree with my plan and we'd have been arguing about it, and Vanille wasn't really...someone I thought was reliable at the time. You had your head on straight and a good grasp on magic.

Guess so. ... Except for the "head on straight" part.

I was scared out of my mind. I kept thinking up of things, like what PSICOM would do with us and how they'd-- [He cant say "kill".]

[When he stops, Lightning reaches over and puts a hand on his shoulder, giving a gentle squeeze.] I know, Hope. But you still held it together when we got into fights. That's what really mattered. [She looks down at her feet, then shakes her head.]

To be honest, I was scared myself.

[He remembers her telling him that she was scared. That's what makes her even more of a person to look up to in his eyes, because she's not that larger than life and can admit she's human.]

Looking back, we dragged each other everywhere just to get somewhere.

We were holding onto whatever we could find just to get by. It would have been a lot worse if either of us had gone alone. [He wouldn't have made it, really. Not at first. And she...well, she wouldn't have made it either.]

[Very carefully leans on her shoulder. Just a shot in the dark, because he's not sure she'll approve.]

We did great, didn't we?
