[mogger]

Sure is, Daan! And we got our stuff back. So that leaves us off in a better spot.

[ hands on her hips ]

So.... hey. I wanted to ask you more about your place.

[recession]

...

Sure. Something is better than nothing.

[ The bar is so low right now. ]

I haven't got much interesting to say, but I'll at least hear them out.

[mogger]

And Yuffie's on your side, so that's waaaaaay better than nothing.

[ but she is sobering up a bit ]

So you.... you've been through a few wars, huh?

[recession]

...

Just the one. I was just born during the First Great War, but the Second Great War only ended... very recently.

[mogger]

It wouldn't be why you happened to show up the way you did, would it?

[recession]

Oh... no. I escaped relatively unscathed from all that, physically speaking.

The peace treaty was enacted only... a week or two ago?

[mogger]

[ hmmm..... she is thinking about this ]

Alright. So what did happen?

[recession]

...

I had the misfortune of coming to a town that...

Everything in it was hostile. Residents, fauna. The very grounds themselves.

...

Do you believe in the otherworldly?

[mogger]

Hard not to, after all I've seen. Including this place.

[ but she is otherwise quiet, listening.... looking a tad creeped out. but still listening ]

[recession]

All of that, then. Things around that were difficult to explain by logical means, not to sound so ominous.

...

Most wouldn't believe me, I think. If I had gotten out of there alive and returned some-place.

I wouldn't know what to say...

[mogger]

Well, some people out there just believe what they're told and don't think for themselves. So that.

More importantly, I believe you! And if anyone here gives you shit, I'll take care of them.

[ punches the air!!! fuck you air ]

[recession]

Please don't enact violence, especially on my behalf.

[ Wait don't do that. ]

[mogger]

Sometimes people need a little violence!

But usually just my presence is enough to strike fear and awe, so I probably don't have to go that far. [ okay yuffie ]

[recession]

Sure.

Let's just keep it at the presence bit.

[mogger]

What's with that "Sure"...?

[ how dare you doubt her, sir ]

[recession]

Just agreeing.

[ Wowowow. ]

Are you a student of someplace? Or...

[ Well, the alternative usually is a teen that helps around the home, usually more common in the more remote towns lately. ]

[mogger]

[ she decides to let this go..... very generously ]

I'm an elite operative for the interim Wutai government! And on a mission to save the world right now.

[ welcome to jrpg, daan ]

[recession]

[ He makes a slight pinched face at this. ]

A resistance-type, or spy organisation...?

[mogger]

Resistance! But saving the world is a different operation. [ busy yuffie ] I guess that's still kind of a resistance though, right?

[ ha ha child soldiers yay ]

[recession]

Depends on whether your nation is run by a tyrant, and who lives to tell the tale.

[ If he had a nickel for every child soldier he'd met... well actually he'd be rather rich. ]

You're only 16, aren't you? How long have you been with them? Why?

[mogger]

We've got a temporary government in place.... once the war is over, the plan is to make it a democracy. Give the power to the people.

Saving the world is with Cloud's gang! And I'd have to say..... [ hm ] ... I dunno, a couple of weeks?

[ she doesn't even sound sure ]

[recession]

[ Cloud... ]

...It wouldn't happen to be the "Cloud" on our bulletin boards, would it?

[ Also well. I guess that's okay. At least she wasn't in the army since like 13 or something like another green-themed kid he knows. ]

[mogger]

[ no listen, she's now describing the plot to ff7. she's been involved in wutai war stuff for much, much longer ]

One and the same! Have you met? You should tell him how lucky he is to have me on the team the next time you see him!

[recession]

Sure, I'll remember to say that.

[ He probably won't or maybe he will. ]

I haven't spoken with him yet though. Turns out it's actually a little overwhelming to be surrounded by nearly forty other strangers in our little "situation".

[mogger]

You better!

[ do it or else daan..... ]

Fair enough. He's kind of a loner, anyway. Acts all aloof and shit.
