[ Cue in one Cadet and one...dog, standing at the sleeping General's door. On guard duty -- even if it wasn't at all necessary and for the most part the both of them could really just go on with their daily lives. Especially when the cadet only has a little bit of time left before the card's effects wear off and...he's back to the normal,

[Those footsteps coming up the stairs were Zack this time, a tray with a sandwich, glass of water, and several dog cookies in his hands as he grinned up at the cadet and canine pup. Those two...]

At ease, soldier. It's just me.

[Maybe not entirely military protocol, but, well, Zack had never followed that stuff to the letter anyway.]

Figured you'd want something to eat after being up here this long.

[action] iiiiiiiiiii suck. D:

[ The both of them perked up at that. Cloud finally relaxing for the most part. ]

I...haven't really thought about it. [ Cloud felt like he needed some sort of purpose right at the moment. ] But thanks. Soldier hasn't left my side since I decided to stand around here. [ On "guard" even if he isn't sure why he was guarding right now. No one had even come across them. ]

[action]NO YOU DOOOOONN'TTTT!

[Leaving the human food with Cloud, Zack nabbed the dog cookies and sat on the step, feeding them to Soldier one by one and giving his cadet friend an amused look.]

He's pretty protective of his family, you know. Kinda reminds me of you sometimes.

[Including the standing at attention despite there being no danger here; Zack himself had made sure of that several times.]

[action] sorry it took so long wife

[ Cloud eyes the sandwich before moving sitting down right next to Zack on the step as he fed Soldier the dog cookies. ]

I haven't really that protective of my family, you know. [ Unless you're talking about the older version of him. He wasn't sure if he was glad that he would grow to have a family or afraid. ]

Relax boys. I only come bearing gifts.

[In Tifa's hands, much like Zack earlier, were food. Instead of sandwiches, Tifa had a plate of chocolate chip cookies for Cloud and a few bones for Soldier.]

[ The Cadet resumed his normal facial expression around the older version of...Tifa. Heat blooming across his face as he looked on at the woman. ]

Tifa... [ He pauses before resuming his 'at attention' standing. ] Thank you. For the cookies.

It's no problem. Thought you'd want some energy. You've been up here for a while.

[She bends down, feeding one of the bones to Soldier.] You know, he's just sleeping. You don't have to stand guard all the time.
