Maybe. But...[how to explain...] Maybe I don't know how to do anything else. As you've probably guessed, I'm not actually that strong in a fight. [considering lucas really did beat the hell out of her in the end.] But if I can help people stay positive and be someone they can talk to, or even just keeping people safe from harm, then that's all I can ask for. That's...what I do back home, too. Most of my spells are for healing or protection. It all comes from the same place.
[ He listens attentively, quietly. Maybe he's trying to better understand, as a person who's been alone and never really had to look out for anyone but himself, the idea of preserving everyone else. ]
Then... what keeps you positive? Who do you talk to?
[her attention is focused on a cat for a moment so that she doesn't have to answer.]
Myself, I guess? [...well, no, that's not entirely right either.] Recently it's been Cloud when I think he can listen, or friends of ours that aren't here. Yuffie tries, but...she's still a kid. [and she trusts yuffie with her life, of course, and knows yuffie can handle herself, but she's not going to burden a teenage girl either when everything's already so bad.] Staying positive for them keeps me positive enough usually.
[sometimes you are still learning how to share your problems with other people because you never had the option until recently.]
Usually, yeah. [the way she says this really is like "he's confused but he's got the spirit, usually." it's fine, it's fine.] But I think I will. This is...a pretty big change still, knowing so many people that I can actually talk to at all. I know what to do for them, but it's the other part I'm still figuring out, I guess. We're all learning though. Can't ignore that either.
[also IT IS FINE, yuul if you would like to handwave/drop this one and pick up in a new thread just for your inbox i am okay with that since i did just ask for a new one. i'm good either way ♥]

I see... Well, I'm glad to know you have Cloud to talk to at least.
[ Tries to imagine him doing Aerith's work and fails miserably. ]
And I hope in the coming days, you'll find more of us to talk to when you need it.
