Hell, she'd better come back safe... These people are way too much like the Shinra.

Zack... A-Are you alright?

[zack_rules]

*looks up, offers her a smile* Yeah, I'm all right. Just waiting for somebody is all.

[onewithsound]

Alright. They... are really lucky to have someone wait for them.

[zack_rules]

*eyebrow raise* You all right, Kururu?

[sanctus_memoria]

-Stares over at him and frowns, heading over to take a seat beside him.- Zack..?

[zack_rules]

Hey, Rinali. Seems like it's been a while.

[sanctus_memoria]

It does..

You're not your usual happy self...

[zack_rules]

It'll pass. Don't worry yourself over it.

[turian_honor]

Everything... isn't all right. What happened?

[zack_rules]

Well... they meant it when they said they were starting up the exams again.

[turian_honor]

... Damn it.

[zack_rules]

Yeah. Watch your back, huh, buddy?

*is dumped out of the labs later that evening, begins slowly making her way back to the flower patch. She sees Zack, dutifully standing guard. Looks relatively unharmed, though walking with a very slight limp*

*smiles* I told you I'd come back.

[zack_rules]

Aeris! *jumps up to embrace her, then pulls back to look her over* Are you all right? You're limping.

[masamuned]

Can't put anything past you, can I? I'll be alright. It was more.. uncomfortable than anything. It's nothing compared to Shinra, and I withstood them well enough!

[zack_rules]

*relaxes a little, gives her a wry smile* Yeah... You sure you're okay? I can carry you if need be.
