Normally it would've, but ShinRa was done and dusted at that point, 'long with the rest of Midgar, so we were doing everything pro-bono. It was just diluted SOLDIER serum, and there wasn't anything else we needed it for any more, so we just pushed the rest of our supply into that.
[ He hummed in acknowledgement. ]
Guess so. About what, hard to say. Rufus got kidnapped during meteorfall, and by the time we got him back, he'd got Geostigma. He changed a lot after that--for the better. I barely saw Cloud around the Seventh Heaven, so you'd have to ask him about that. But I know after that pool showed up in your church, he moved the Buster Sword in there.
Finally fucking polished it like he should. I could practically hear Angeal when I first saw the state that thing was in.
You doing spooky shit from the Lifestream is fine. Maybe do spooky shit and say hi to us sometime too. Angeal doesn't get to if his spooky shit is just that goddamn wear, tear, and rust spiel like a bad commercial jingle.
[ He scrunched his nose and pouted about it. But asking to call him a big brother seemed to snap him out of it with a jolt. A small sound--something confused and uncertain--was strangled in his throat. He didn't mind telling Aerith otherwise strictly confidential details due to the given circumstances, and he knew she was good with secrets, but the sudden poke at something (platonically) intimate made him falter a bit.
Normally he could brush it off seamlessly and go with the flow, but. Well. He was trying--a little bit--to reach out in turn. ]
Well..yeah, guess so. How many do you have here now? I'm sure like half this barge would kill a guy for you.
[She doesn't know all the details of what's in it- who does and who would understand it if they weren't educated about it? But pure SOLIDER serum would be like drinking bleach to a normal person. Mako poisoning was no joke- and it was serious if they restored to the serum as a stop gap.
At least it helped Rufus. Hopefully, she thinks, it pulled his head out of his butt.]
I didn't know Cloud let it get that bad. Zack wouldn't have liked that, even if he understood. Angeal...well, that was his sword first, right? He would have hated for his sword to go that way.
I'll do some spooky hellos if I can. Heck- I won't even make a dumb rant at you. That's not fun.
And...
[She looks at him. Really looks at him, eye candy and all, with soft eyes.]
We're just giving what we have a name. I do have a few adopted brothers- one who's gender fluid so I call them a brosis sometimes- and three uncles.
Plus the kids. It's a lot of family for someone who was an orphan, huh? From mom, to the Turks and friends, to this.
[Though yes. Many may kill for her in the right circumstances. She hopes to never put someone in that position, so she's careful.]
