Where --

Gaia, it hurts to breathe. Fuck.

Where am I? The last thing I remember --

What time is it?

[Beat]

...Oh.

[Beat]

I suppose the police will want to be talking to me.

[Beat]

Mr. Leandros, I'm very sorry I was not at work yesterday. Walter, I doubt I'll be seeing you this morning.

Is there anybody around?

[OOC: OK, so it hasn't been EXACTLY 24 hours. I couldn't help it. I missed my boy.]

Action!

Every day.

Action!

[urbandev.livejournal.com]

Yeah.

[OOC: Gotta climb into bed, sorry! I'll be around tomorrow.]

Action!

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

Something will work out.

[He said it more to himself than to Reeve, but then he looked at Reeve.]

We'll find a way.


[ooc; OKay! Night!]

Action!

[urbandev.livejournal.com]

You will, at the very least. [He can get smacked for being a whiny teenager at any time.]

[Shrugs]

But yes, we will. [Stirs his coffee absently, even though it doesn't need any attention.]

Before she left, Amanda and I were looking at the clock as the most likely portal home. We could start there again.

Action!

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

I'm not alone here.

[Cloud isn't going to smack him but he does look at Reeve like he was being too melodramatic.]

Mm. It might keep a couple people busy at least.

Action!

[urbandev.livejournal.com]

[Flinches a little from the look, but presses his lips together.] I didn't make the rules, Cloud.

It's a start. We were trying to use a Bolt-Elemental combination to offset the charge surrounding the clock. I still have Amanda's notes, but the Materia -- [Had been Yuffie's.]

Action!

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

I've got the materia. [He ignores what Reeve said about the rules. If anything, he'll find a way to give Reeve back his heart beat.]

Action!

[urbandev.livejournal.com]

Really? [Eyes him.] I thought you just had a Cure3.

[Oh, Reeve was willing to trade with the deities, but he'd do it himself. It wasn't Cloud's job to fix him.]

Action!

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

I borrowed a couple from Yuffie.

[He acts like it was an easy thing to do although this was Yuffie he's talking about.]

Action!

[urbandev.livejournal.com]

[Is that -- oh, yeah, that's a pout.]

She told me to get stuffed.

[Gave him the Materia. But told him where to shove it first.]

If you don't mind... that would be helpful.

Action!

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

She - uh - doesn't know I grabbed them.

[And that is a sheepish grin, one hand scratching at the back of his neck.]

I don't.

Action!

[urbandev.livejournal.com]

[Glowering now.]

I'm telling.

[Can't help smiling a little in response.]

Thanks. We'll figure this place out.

Cait is almost finished. I wasn't planning on programming the AI.

Action!

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

[Cloud raises his hands in mock defense.]

Hey, it's not like she doesn't claim all my materia as hers anyways.

[Nods once and finishes his coffee, disposing the the mug in a trash can.]

Mm. Sounds good to me.

Action!

[urbandev.livejournal.com]

[Smiles a little, looking down at his empty cup.] True.

[No more Yuffie thoughts.]

I'll get back to work on him, then. The last one was wrecked in the Titanic Curse.

Action!

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

If you need any parts, ask me to find some.

Is there some where you want to go? I'll take you there.

Action!

[urbandev.livejournal.com]

Thanks. [Something else Yuffie'd done for him.]

No, thanks. I don't know where -- [Will probably stay at the hospital for a few days.]

Action!

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

Anytime.

[He nodded, dropping his gaze to the floor then to the windows.]

UNderstandable. Take it easy.

Action!

[urbandev.livejournal.com]

[Playing with the rim of his coffee cup.] Thank you, Cloud.

Action!

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

You're welcome, Reeve.

[He nods and raises a hand in farewell, heading back to his bike and to go wandering on home.]
