Characters: OU: Aerith Gainsborough, AU: Cloud Strife, AU: Rokujo Miharu
Where: The Park
When: Early evening/Twilight, after
this logSummary: Cloud accidentally overloaded Aerith with information about what happened to her within the last two years...and she fainted from shock. A flood of memories has come back -- memories of her sacrifice, death, etc. Now, as Cloud tries to help her cope with this, help (Miharu) comes along with a surprising idea.
Warnings: Nothing (I don't think?)
The memories had come flooding back to her all at once. Praying at the Temple, knowing that she would be leaving her friends soon (thinking though, that it would only be because of a journey she had to make on her own) and finally the pain. Oh God, the pain had been almost too much to bear. She knew without seeing who it had been who killed her in her own world. Opening her eyes slowly, Aerith felt the warmth of Cloud's hands holding her up, and she burrowed closer against him, wrapping her arms tightly around his neck and trying not to cry. The memories were more painful than she could have ever imagined, and she didn't really know how to cope with them at the moment.
