[Halfway to Sudowoodo crossing again, since she'd doubled back for Leon, Lightning decides to call up Hope to ask how he's doing. There's just...one problem.]

We are sorry. The number you are attempting to dial is no longer a valid number. Please check your number and try again.

So she stops, looking down at the Gear. Did she dial the number wrong ( Read more... )

[Sora's... not really sure how much help he'd be, or if he'd even be able to provide any sort of comfort, but dangit, he's gonna try.]

Lightning? When you get back, there's something I want to show you.

[It's the trying that counts, Sora. She'll...well, she will appreciate it.]

Okay. I should be back by Monday. Next Tuesday at the latest.

Okay.

Take care of yourself all right? I mean-- I know you will, but...

I'll be fine, Sora. Don't worry about me.

Don't... You're my friend, Lightning.

[and telling him not to worry is like telling him not to breathe.]

[A long moments pause. Someone is still getting used to having friends besides the l'Cie.]

....is worrying going to make any of us feel better, or bring him back?

Well, no, but... worrying's not necessarily a bad thing, either.

Maybe not. But it's a waste of time, and a waste of energy. Even if...we feel like we need to, sometimes.

I don't mind. Like I said, you're my friend.

It's kinda like... I don't have any way of making things better, but I want you to know that you're not alone. That's all.

[Lightning doesn't say anything for a moment, then she smiles just a tiny bit.]

I know I'm not. Everyone here has....they've proven that to me. [Rise, Ven, Sora, Leon....everyone...she's not alone.]

[it makes him very happy to hear that-- and, well, now he feels comfortable enough to let his own expression go wobbly. Sora's notoriously bad at this hiding emotions thing.]

[oh dear...] Sora..we'll..[Deep breath.] We'll see him again.

I know-- I know.

[he lifts his fists to scrub at his eyes briefly. Hope had been one of the first people he met here, even if they hadn't traveled together that long. even if he knew it'd never really be goodbye, that they'd always be together in terms of friendship... it was hard not to think of it as a goodbye anyway.]

S'long as we've all got our hearts, right?

[She doesn't really get the whole "heart" think since it's never been explained, but....]

Right. As long as we don't forget him..we'll see him again. Don't start doubting that.
