Yuffie
Squall
Cid?
[the names are heavily stricken out soon after they're all written, but might still be recognizable, being rather distinctive names.]

Ignore this.

[But "Tifa" and "Aerith" get scribbled in the margin, letters so cramped and tiny that the names are hard to read, and then completely obliterated with more ink. Cloud walks away

Something on your mind?

[nilradiance]

[Ah. That's one accounted for.]

Same as most people's.

[knighted_lion]

[He's quiet, but he's still around~]

The kidnappings?

[nilradiance]

[He's just a worrier.]

Mm. They took...do you know Tifa and Aerith?

[Voice!!]

[7bladesword]

Kind of hard to ignore it once you say to ignore it..

[Voice--he can't match Yuffie's energy XD]

[nilradiance]

[And there's Yuffie. Good. He'd kind of expected to hear a racket if she got kidnapped, anyways.]

Some of us can put a leash on our curiosity.

...It's just the kidnappings lately.

[Voice--He should work on that ^^]

[7bladesword]

[Of course! Last time she broke a window!!]

That's a lie, you're still curious, but you just have to kick a tree to not ask!

...Yeah, there's a lot of them...it sucks.

[Voice--Cloud says pfffft he doesn't want to bounce off walls.]

[nilradiance]

That's what I meant. I can be curious and not ask.

I suppose after a year...you get used to it.

[always_censored]

That my name?

[Voice]

[nilradiance]

Was. [Now it just looks like a mess to Cloud. Still, there's Cid--now he knows that no one else got taken.]

[Voice]

[always_censored]

What for? [Hey, if Cid got kidnapped, there would've been a crapload of swearing over the journals.]

[Voice]

[nilradiance]

Figuring out who's been kidnapped. [He hasn't heard his Cid swear. :| ...this is a sad thing, actually.]
