Day Thirty Seven
Back in Risembool again. I’ve gotten to see more of it that I have the last time I was here, and it’s a nice place. Very clean. Kind of reminds me of home, of the area in-state a bit. Still, I was born and bred for the beach; I kind of miss it. Hard to find decent seafood in any of the towns I’ve stopped in so far.
Manages to reunite with some old friends, and meet some new people besides. Been a busy for days, I guess. I’m not used to being this...social. Normally it’s just my class and then that’s it. So along with the beach, I’m starting to miss my old house, too. Really time to get out of here. Not that it hasn’t been time to leave since before we got here...

Not really sure how I feel about all these people. I’m glad to see Aerith again. More than glad. I didn’t think I’d...well... And I didn’t think she’d be so happy to see me, considering what went down the last time we were together. She was certainly angry enough that night in Treno. Got to make sure I don’t screw up that badly again.
Rachel’s another head-trip. God, all those years she was dead and I thought I’d give anything for a chance to talk to her just one more time. Now I have it and I spend most the time tongue-tied. What am I supposed to say? ‘Sorry I killed you’? But the last thing she remembers is that moment on the Blade Ship; she’s still in that mentality. Still...I don’t know. It’s so confusing. Thank god we’ve got something a bit more familiar to take our minds off that now. Though I get the sinking feeling I’ll have to face that some day before this is all over. Damn, and I thought I’d done that already. Just...not with Rachel. What is this place?
And what is going on in Zanarkand? Only city I haven’t been to so far but Rohan, and I think my head might explode if I try to go there. But, really, what’s the point of kidnapping someone in the middle of a kidnapping? They’ve already got the kid here, what more do they need?
And I’ll have to think more about that information dump the kid gave us. Townspeople are monsters? Well, that would explain more than it doesn’t. How does someone live without a heart? Maybe if Riku ever comes back this way I’ll track him down and have another go at getting some answers. He seemed to know at least a little bit about this kind of thing.
By the way, Larxene, are you the “Shock and Awe” chick he mentioned? Sure wouldn’t surprise me. Hope you guys are having fun playing with your little game pieces, it won’t last much longer.
