Thirty-nine: Perhaps not the typical response to loss of power?

Best blanket fort ever. All are welcome!

[Congratulations, you have just made Marche's 'AWESOME' list. Which apparently isn't that hard. xD ]

Really?!

[mach_kick]

Of course! What's a blanket fort without people to share it with?

[forwardmarche]

[Total look of '8D!'. Looks around and grins.]

You made this all by yourself?

[mach_kick]

Yep! I have many questionably-useful talents.

Welcome! What kind of candy do you like? We have chocolate, cookies, leftover pie, marshmallows, goldfish crackers, and some pudding.

[forwardmarche]

Pudding sounds good!

I haven't made a fort like this in forever. It was usually too hot where I lived before, and I didn't get a chance to do it yet in St. Ivalice.

[mach_kick]

Pudding it is!

I used to make forts at home when we had ocean storms. Those things were amazing. Garden, a mercenary academy, didn't approve of 'em so much, but I made some anyway.

[forwardmarche]

Thanks!

... You went to a mercenary academy?

[mach_kick]

I did! That's my job. We hunt down nasty rogue monsters, head off invasions, do some espionage/assassination work, and occasionally save the world.

Well, we did once.

[forwardmarche]

How did you save the world?

[mach_kick]

We took down the insane Sorceress from the future that was trying to take it over and kind of smoosh time together in the process. It was very exciting, to say the least! But kind of life-threatening and stresful.

... Woooooooooooooooow! [This is a face of total :OOOOOOOOOOO, Zell.]

[mach_kick]

[Laughs a little at his expression] I promise you, it was a LOT less cool then it sounds.

[forwardmarche]

My adventure wasn't nearly as cool.
