Groaning to herself, Yuffie shifted and pulled her knees up to her chest, arms wrapping around her legs as she rest her forehead on top of them. She might have thought to just go to bed and relax, but there was no way she was going to be able to rest in a room where the television only gave off static and everything looked like it was moving. So there was her decision maker, and the second floor hall was now claimed as her temporary home until further notice.
Or, until this crazy nightmare stopped and she could wake up from it.
Reply
He was so engrossed in his thoughts that he nearly tripped over her. Bumped her, actually. Vincent almost swore before he realised who it was.
"...Yuffie?" Glancing down at her. "...your television set..." his voice trailed off.
He needed to account for all of AVALANCHE and the others from his world. Tseng, Zack, Lucrecia...at least he had found one person.
Reply
No, no, she wasn't going to figure that one out first hand.
After her silent inner battle with herself, Yuffie spared a glance to her room then furiously shook her head. "Don't tell me! They were coming out all over the place, I didn't want to stay in there. Then you weren't in your room," she pointed a finger accusingly, "and so I was stuck all alone out here!" How had she figured this out? By just letting herself into his room earlier, but alas ( ... )
Reply
Heh.
'Go away, you're not helping.'
Good, she didn't hug. He wasn't quite sure how he would react if she did. Maybe he might accidentally hurt her because he was rather jumpy right now...and he knew how well that would end if it happened.
"...you went in my room?" Oh, right. He hadn't locked it. And even if it were locked, she probably would have found a way to get inside. "Never mind. You haven't encountered anything else besides that, have you?"
He looked a bit baffled, and then remembered the blood on his clothes.
"..." Vincent glanced down; the blood was still red, not yet brown. "A little fight with someone." More like big fight, but she didn't have to know all the details.
Reply
They were made up of nightmares, after all. It was what she had decided.
He obviously wasn't willing to share the details, but Yuffie's worries and determination always got the best of her. "A little fight? Liar," she countered right off the bat, hands moving to rest on her hips in her usual 'you're busted mister!' pose.
"You know I'll find out somehow!"
Reply
Still, Yuffie's curiosity was going to be the death of him. "Yes. A little fight." Oh, not that pose and tone of voice. "You can find out if you want, but it will not be by me." Vincent leant against the wall and looked away from her.
[ ooc: if she wants to poke/jab him, she can do so. XD ]
Reply
She vaguely remembered talking to that guy about a death deal between himself and Vincent and for a moment Yuffie held her breath. Did she screw that up already? And after telling the guy to trust her- No, Yuffie, don't jump to conclusions, she told herself and the girl slowly moved closer to the gunslinger ( ... )
Reply
What...are you doing? He nearly stepped back when she slowly advanced on him.
He let out a strangled sound when she starting prodding him, jabbing. Ouch...sore spot there, another one there. "Yuff--"
Breathe. She wasn't a threat, Yuffie was just being Yuffie. He really was far too tense if her proximity was doing this to him. Vincent found one of her arms and grabbed it, hoping his grip wasn't too tight. "I'm. fine." He bit out those words, more out of nervousness than anger.
[ ooc: ^^ o/ because this is all his fault. ]
Reply
There, and there, there was another one! Yuffie continued her prodding until that hand closed around her arm and she yelped more out of surprise than anything. An easy grin found its way to her lips and she looked up at him, head tilted just a fraction to the side. "No fight is small when you're the one getting hurt. Can't fool ol' Yuffie here." And she was quite proud of this, and unlike her counterpart here she had no problems with the invasion of personal space.
Obviously.
"You know, everybody's been saying they can do things they used to do back home; want me to try and heal you?" Not that she knew whether she could or not, but she had a test subject now.
( OOC According to her, it's always his fault. XD )
Reply
You keep telling yourself that, Valentine, and you'll eventually believe it.
Chaos again? He sighed and shook his head.
"It's just bruises," was all he said. And maybe a couple of scrapes...but she didn't have to know. He leant a little back towards the wall, until his head bumped against it and there was something solid behind him.
"It's true. Some of our powers are back," he said softly. A month ago, he would have been glad to have them back. Now he just wished Chaos would stop bothering him. "...you have materia?"
[ occ: usually, it IS his fault. >) ]
Reply
At the question Yuffie shook her head, eyes downcast at the thought of those dear, beautiful, sweet, lonely-without-their-adoring-ninja orbs. Sucking in a quick breath, she recovered from the spell and brightened once again. "Nah, but I can cure a little! I mean, it's nothing like what Aerith could do..." she still didn't really believe the woman was here and alive, even if Vincent and Cloud both told her. "But it's better than nothing."
She paused briefly, leaning forward a little. "So is that a yes? You know, if I can heal you, you have to tell me what happened!" It sounded like a good deal to her.
( OOC He's such a troublemaker! )
Reply
Pity. His own materia was on him, but only as paperweights. Unless one threw them? He decided not to think about that. "Hn." Vincent looked for the moment as if he might agree. Might. He didn't want to let his guard down, not with some of his powers back.
"Er..." And he straightens his shoulders. "I don't know." Bad deal to him.
[ ooc: I know, right? Derping like this...oh Vincent... ]
Reply
For just half a second there was the brief glimmer of hope. Had she finally gotten through to him? Finally, after all these years of trying and poking and prodding and bugging and harassing- "You don't know?" And hopes were dashed in the blink of an eye!
"Fine, then. I hope your arms rot off," she grumbled, crossing her arms sourly and turning her back on him.
( OOC Ahahaha I don't understand why he makes her so angry XD )
Reply
...
"I don't--"
Too late, she's turned around. Angry.
Since when did you start to care?
'Since when did I not care?' he replied irritably, in his mind. 'I've always cared, even when I didn't want to.'
Does he? Yeah, he does.
Right now, such thoughts aren't helping him. "I'm not...going to die," Vincent finally interjected.
[ ooc: his stubborness? XDD ]
Reply
"Nobody can make promises like that," she finally spoke quietly, arms falling to her sides as she thought of Aerith. She might have been young, bratty, and obnoxious but the death of people she cared about hurt just as much as it would anybody else.
Her head turned slightly, just enough to spare him a glance from the corner of her eye.
"Which is why I'm always on the lookout for your safety! You guys are gonna give me white hairs and wrinkles, and then you'll be sorry for making such a pretty girl like me age so quickly!"
( OOC That must be it~ )
Reply
"Maybe I can." Even if he wanted to die, he couldn't. After so many years and not seeing his face change, he had mostly resigned himself to the fact that he couldn't die.
Vincent swallowed carefully while she was speaking. He couldn't raise his voice at the moment; if he did, the raspiness would be audible.
"I doubt you'll have white hairs and wrinkles that quickly, Yuffie," he answered dryly, "It's more often you wear us down."
[ ooc: yep. I play a lot of stubborn people... ]
