Yeah, a few. Couple of 'em hired me for a job, and like I said... things spiraled. There's five of us dealing with it now.

[ and one of them is a dog. ]

[decaptych]

Wow, an accidental adventuring gang. There's worse ways to end up with a squad. You get along?

[skyagain]

Wouldn't be going with them if I didn't. Not without getting paid.

[decaptych]

Ohhh, so not that great.

With any of 'em?

[skyagain]

... No, I meant... If we didn't get along. I'd only go if I was being paid. But I'm not being paid, so.

[ LEAVE HIM ALONE HE'S AWKWARD ]

[decaptych]

Ohh! Even better! Hey, better bad news first only to get replaced by good news, than the other way around, right?

[ They're BOTH WEIRD. ]

[skyagain]

... Sure, I guess?

[ he thinks aikawa is weirder but cloud's tolerance of weird is both 0 and extremely high. he accepts it. he is just judgmental ]

[decaptych]

What, you don't agree?

[ No, you're right. Aikawa is definitely way weirder. ]

[skyagain]

Sure. Just... didn't really think of it as good or bad news.

[decaptych]

I'd rather get along with people than not, that's for sure.

I like being around good people.

[skyagain]

Fair enough. I'm not really a people person.

[decaptych]

Mm, not gonna lie. I kinda got those vibes from you, actually.

But not in a bad way. You remind me of someone.

[skyagain]

... Yeah? Who?

[decaptych]

My best friend an' partner, Risu.

He's got spiky blond hair too, and he's a little socially awkward like you.

[ Heh heh. ]

But he's also got a good head on his shoulders.

[skyagain]

What's with everyone calling me awkward...

[ they're RIGHT but they shouldn't SAY IT ]

[decaptych]

It's not a bad trait. But it is kinda funny.

Like, the I wanna noogie you kinda funny.

[skyagain]

Try it and you lose the hand.

[ :/ ]

[decaptych]

Yep, you're definitely the same.

[skyagain]

[ >:(!!!! ]

[decaptych]

[ >:) ]

[skyagain]

... Whatever. I'm my own person.

[ laughs in ff7 lore ]

[decaptych]

I know you are, I'm not saying I only see you in Risu terms. It's just kinda funny, and it just makes you like you more, that's all.

[skyagain]

... Right. I guess... that makes sense.

[ he looks less defensive at least? lowe my memory. ]

[decaptych]

Yeah, it's not a bad thing --

[ And then they can get boomf'd by another blast of stardust because there are no rules. Cloud will get to see this particular memory. (CW for some violence / gore-ish?)

When it's over, Aikawa coughs a little, waving off what remains of the dust. ]

...Well, speak of the devil I guess. That's the first time I met Risu.

[skyagain]

... Huh.

[ he has absolutely no context for any of that, but he can get the gist of it from the expositionary dialogue. still. he has to ask. ]

You ever learn what he did with the body?
