[Voice // action] 013

[silvergeneral]

[A quiet shuffling and then a faintly puzzled face peering into the journal.]

Zack? Where are you?

[Sephiroth's now just outside #50 looking creepy being ninja wondering where an old friend's at. A quick peek through the window said Zack's stuff looked like it was gone, but Sephiroth is pretty sure that if Zack had disappeared from Luceti,

[And here's a Luneth passing by, noticing a familiar face stalking someone's house.]

What are you doing?

[Action]

[silvergeneral]

[Eh? Oh, someone he knows.]

Luneth. Ah, I was...

[Pause. He was looking positively seedy loafing about someone else's house, wasn't he? Oh, the depths to which he had fallen.]

...Looking for an old friend.

[Action]

[keeperofcourage]

[I don't know who your old friend is Seph. Is now looking at the house.]

You think he lives here?

[Action]

[silvergeneral]

[A shrug, and a slow shake of the head.]

I know that until recently, he did.

[Why are friends so difficult to keep track of in this place? Oh how he haaaaates not having all his powers. He looks straight at Luneth now.]

And what were you up to?

[Action]

[herobydefault]

[Guess who was sitting at his favorite window and drinking his morning coffee when someone peeked in?

Face-to-face. With a VERY. CRANKY. CLOUD.]

[Action]

[silvergeneral]

[Blink. Blink blink. Oh it's you.]

...You look as if you slept nearly as much as I did.

[Which is to say: none.]

[Action]

[herobydefault]

[Scowl. "Get out of my space, Sephiroth." Seriously, he's such a brat when he's in a poor mood, he's already terrorized one innocent person thus far.]

[Action]

[silvergeneral]

[But now really, Cloud can hardly think to deter his nemesis quite so easily.

So instead of carrying on his way, he taps his finger pensively against his lip.]

Trouble in paradise?

[Action]

[ivorygunslinger]

[It's nice to see he isn't the only one who creepily stalks looks for people he knows, even if it was for different reasons. But anyway, guess who's watching you now, Sephiroth!]

[Action]

[silvergeneral]

[Runs in the family. Mama does it too. Sephiroth looks over one shoulder to turn and look at him.]

Not even a greeting now, Yazoo?

[Action]

[ivorygunslinger]

[ How was he supposed to greet him anyway? That was the thing about being somebodies Remnant. Still it wouldn't stop him from being slightly sarcastic.]

A greeting, then. Why are you here? [He's still yet to figure out a life outside of Mother yet, so this confuses him slightly.]

[Action]

[silvergeneral]

[Yazoo gets a raised eyebrow for that--just what does it take to maintain a modicum of respect around here, even from a fragment of your own self?]

Making sure that all remnants of the past don't just fade away.

[Vague Sephiroth is vague. He's busy wondering just what he's doing himself.]

[gardenerofgaia]

On holiday.

[silvergeneral]

[The corners of his lips tense at the sight of her--one never knows when a passing flower girl will simply chuck a Holy at your head--but there's still relief in his face.]

So he hasn't... gone.

[gardenerofgaia]

[Sephiroth, dear, we chuck the Holy when you start with the Meteor.]

No, he's here. That's why you were asking? [I mean, she knows Zack used to work with Sephiroth and all, but once you know the "madman" image it's hard to forget.]

[silvergeneral]

[Yes, well, Mother tried that and Cloud chopped her hand off. Better safe than sorry.]

Yes. Too many now keep disappearing without a trace or last word. Last chances should not be wasted thus.

[Sigh; light a few fires and everyone takes it to heart.]

/late to the party orz

[wingenvy]

Seph?

[silvergeneral]

[Oh relief, the Ancient wasn't lying. There you are. He gestures back at the house behind him.]

Your home no longer to your liking?

[wingenvy]

Let's just say it's a little too tense right now.

[silvergeneral]

Care to enlighten me as to why?
