[Her voice is quiet, a bit distracted.]

No one's heard of Kefka returning, have they? I know I probably would have heard of or from him by now, but I just want to be sure.

Hm. It's almost been a year. I'm...not sure what to think of that.

[Filtered to Setzer]

I need your opinion on something. Will you be home in a couple of hours?

[Adell will probably run into Terra somewhere on her way home from the barracks. ...Probably literally, as they both round the same corner going both ways. Oops.]

[Unfortunately for them both, Terra has begun to pick up speed without realizing it. She isn't running, but her stride is definitely brisk. The result is a firm collision. She can't even cry out, since the air is effectively driven out of her lungs. And she loses her balance, stumbling and landing on the ground.]

[Off guard, the impact staggers Adell off his feet, but he spins around to try to regain his balance. Failing. And landing flat on his face.]

...Ow!

[Terra blinks, dazed, then her eyes widen as she realizes who she knocked over. Immediately, she scrambles to her feet to offer him a hand up.]

Adell! I'm so sorry!

[He'll graciously accept the help while recovering from the impact.]

Ah, it's nothing. You okay?

[Have a sheepish smile in response.]

I'm fine, really.

[A bit wobbly for a moment, but that will pass and she won't draw attention to it.]

I should have paid more attention to my surroundings.

[She'll get a smile in return as he dusts himself off.]

Don't worry about it. Somethin' on your mind, Terra?

[Because it's Adell, she nods.]

...yes, actually. That doesn't excuse me, but I've been a little preoccupied.

Like I said, don't worry about it. It was an accident.

But what's going on, if you don't mind my asking? Nothing's wrong, is it?

Well, not really, but...it's almost been a year for me, Adell.

...For me too. We arrived about the same time, didn't we...?

[Terra nods slowly.]

Pretty close to each other, anyway.

...I never thought I would be here this long.

...Me either. [He runs a hand through his hair absently.] And yet... it's gone by so fast.

Sometimes, it was fast. Other times...it felt really slow.

[Her gaze is distant and a bit melancholy for a moment.]

I'm not sure what to do, you know? It's a significant marker, but it's not something that feels right being celebrated.

Maybe it's not. Maybe it's one of those things that are supposed to be reflective.

[...Adell rests a hand on her shoulder and gives her a slight, reassuring smile.]

But... there are plenty of things to be thankful for too.

[Terra can't help but echo that smile.]

That's true. If I hadn't arrived here, I wouldn't have met you or Sonic or Hermione....
