Aerith? I built you a cart to go with your garden. I worked on two others before it, but I didn't think they'd suit your taste; hope this one makes the grade. If you need any help, let me know and I'll come running. And have you met Zelda yet? I think you'd both hit it off well. I can introduce you, if you want

So are you trying to impress this girl, or are you just really lousy at cart making?

[soldier_puppy]

My carts are just fine! She...just likes them when they're pretty rather than functional.

[myownmemory]

Pretty? It's...just a cart. Girls.

[soldier_puppy]

But if you had a choice between a pretty cart that compliments the flowers you're going to be putting inside, or an ugly one that you'll be embarrassed to push around, which one are you going to pick?

[myownmemory]

How did you manage to screw it up twice?

[soldier_puppy]

Hey, you only have so many items you can find at first! I was trying to hurry up!

[myownmemory]

Ha. Why don't you just get her what she needs, and let her decorate it the way she wants.

Don't girls...like art and stuff anyway?

[soldier_puppy]

I'm not going to give her something half done!

[myownmemory]

So you are really trying to impress her.

...but what if she wants it a certain way?

[soldier_puppy]

I am not! I just want to make sure she's comfortable and feels at home here.

Then she'll give me a Look and I'll change it.

[myownmemory]

A...cart'll do all that? Did she have one back home?

A 'Look'?

[soldier_puppy]

Yeah, I made her a couple back there, too. And of course it does! Appearances always are affected by things around them.

You've never had a girlfriend, have you?

[myownmemory]

So she is your girlfriend? Does...Yuffie know? She still thinks you like her, and...that could maybe, you know, hurt her feelings.

I've had a friend who are girls. Important friends.

[soldier_puppy]

I--Um--she was my girlfriend. You know, before I died. And Yuffie's over me, I'm pretty sure. I hope.

Girls are good to have as friends. You can trust them.

[myownmemory]

Oh.

Are you...sure sure? If you make her upset, I'm not going to stop her, you know.

Not always, but...

[soldier_puppy]

Yeah.

I... you're going to make me ask her, aren't you?

I dunno; the ones around me, I trust.
