[He might have maybe let himself cry a little now Terra was too busy looking after that kid to notice. There's little to show for it other than the redness around his eyes and a slight tremble in his voice

It's starting to look like it.

[warkitoff]

Sure is.

Everything okay over at your...seed...garden...thing? [This is still a concept that confuses him.]

[knighted_lion]

Garden. And yeah.

[warkitoff]

I'm glad there's at least somewhere where everything's not messed up.

[royalpiracy]

No worries, Bartz. I'm setting sail soon. Ya need any back-up?

[warkitoff]

Not sure. I don't really know the details but I think something nasty's headed up here to take one of those stones everyone's fussing about.

Everything okay at Luca?

[royalpiracy]

Far as I c'n see. I was just stoppin' through to visit a friend. I'd like to introduce you sometimes -- I think you'd get along pretty well.

[warkitoff]

You think so? He a chocobo or something?

[warkitoff]

...I-

[So she's a complete stranger. But something about her just seems trustworthy and he wants to talk to someone.]

-I've lost a friend.

[video.]

[warkitoff]

It's- It's fine.

Well, this whole situation isn't. But you've done nothing wrong. There's no need to apologize.

[Cloud sees that look in Bartz's eyes but he's not going to push him on the fact. Cloud doesn't like to be hounded when he's upset, so he won't do it to anyone else.

He's looking a little green himself. Boat ride to the main land then an airship? Not fun. Especially since he still gets airsick. But he's out on deck, the wind blowing in his face.]

You should find chocobos for rent all over the place... but I don't know if there are any wild ones outside of the forest.

[warkitoff]

Guess I'll have to head back to the Mist Continent once this mess is done with, then. I want to try and catch a wild one.

[video]

[loveandstrife]

That sounds fun. I haven't done that in a long time... it'd be nice to race one again.

[video]

[warkitoff]

Want to have a race once this mess is all over?

[See the expression on his face, Bartz? The actual expression? Yeah, the Warrior isn't at his best, either. He's got a pretty troubled expression on his face.]

Eventful is one way to put it. What has happened?

[warkitoff]

[He notices it but keeps quiet.]

I don't really know everything, this place is Terra's home, she's been dealing with it. I'm just here to help if I'm needed.

But one of those stones showed up. Like the one that man killed Firion for.

[for_cosmos]

[That definitely gets his attention.]

Has the man who killed him found out about the stone?

[video, filtered to Cosmos Warriors]

[warkitoff]

We think so, yes. The child who found it showed it to the world a while ago.
