Well, isn't this nice? sike.

Gloom and doom and creepy-crawly things lurking in the shadows. Just another day in the life of Zack...only one problem. 
I shouldn't freaking have a life anymore!!!
I've been dead for five years and completely content to be so. Damn, just when I was getting used to things up there.

I wonder if he's here....no. he wouldn'

Zack!! You're here? Or maybe, the Promised Land has these devices too? Because I know this isn't the right place for either of us. I can't hear the Planet anymore, but at least I can still hear your words.

It is you, Zack, isn't it?

[this_world_fair]

yeah babe, it's me.
You shouldn't be here, although I'm not complaining.

[partam_cherem]

Hmph. I don't know what I would with you if you did.

[this_world_fair]

Don't "hmph" at me young lady! Is that how you greet someone who you havent seen in over eight years?

where are you? We need to stick together, I don't want you alone.
That and I need to see if this is the real Aeris and not some imposter.

No one's stopping you from killing yourself.

[this_world_fair]

I don't fear death, but I won't go running to it.

[cruce]

You sure sounded unhappy to be alive.

[this_world_fair]

It's called confusion my pet. Unhappy, are you kidding?
I'm much happier now that she's here.

You have no idea what being dead for five years is like.
