And now today, it stopped us from talking, too.

[ here they are at the bar!! serve yourself tsuru cloud isn't that nice ]

[preowned]

[ he sticks his tongue out ]

It's definitely a low blow.

[skyagain]

Trying to make sure we can't pay attention to anything else, maybe.

[preowned]

I guess...

[ he pokes through the options ]

What did you think of the trial?

[skyagain]

[ cloud tries to remember how to make a cosmo canyon drink from watching tifa do it that one time ]

Besides that it was a mess? [ it was bad. ] I don't know. I think we got duped.

[preowned]

A frame job...

Although, I suppose we can try to figure out who wouldn't care about framing Bucky in particular.

[skyagain]

With the shadows involved, can we really say for sure it has to be someone like that?

[preowned]

Neither of the other two did. In fact, they hid evidence in their own rooms. Seems fairly careless.

[skyagain]

[ he shrugs ]

I don't know. Maybe whoever it was had more time than they did.

[preowned]

I guess so.

[ he'll just rest against the counter. ]

Oh, well.

[skyagain]

Guess we'll know who it was if the shadows don't leave them alone and they have to go again.

[ rip? he has managed something that almost looks like a cosmo canyon so he just stares at his drink for a bit ]

[preowned]

It wouldn't make any sense if they do... but we can't say for sure unless it happens...

[skyagain]

You think any of this makes sense?

[ dry. ]

[preowned]

No.

But if they really want us to believe this will save our hostages, I feel like making someone kill again will make that go out the window.

[skyagain]

I don't know how much people believe in that stuff in the first place.

[preowned]

I know someone asked to be brought a belonging of their hostage, in order for it to be proven...

[ he sighs. ]

But it's difficult. I fully believe that they could have brought hostages here. They brought us here, after all. It's just whether or not the deal is legitimate that's harder.

[skyagain]

... Yeah. I think the hostages are here, too. But I'm pretty sure there's something about that contract that's going to make it so we lose no matter what.

[preowned]

So, we just have to figure out a loophole.

[ somehow. easier said than done. ]

I tried to find out if the hostages are conscious or not. I was told that the staff didn't know, and they would make an attempt to find out. [ a pause ] I suppose if Ookurikara was, he'd be throwing a fit.

[skyagain]

That your hostage?

[ from context. also francia that's so funny. ]

I think if they've kept Aerith awake, they'd regret it pretty quick, too.

[ with a steel chair. ]

[preowned]

When I asked, Cetus was like, "Does it matter if they are or not?" and I kept having to insist that yes.

Some of our hostages like to hit things.

[skyagain]

It matters if they can see everything that's happened to us, too.

[ he. would rather. aerith be unconscious actually ]

[preowned]

... yeah.

My person-- I know him from home, but he was also at the village and camp. I was really hoping he'd have a break.

[skyagain]

He's another sword, then?

[preowned]

He's one of my best friends!

He wouldn't agree with that.

[skyagain]

... Because he's like that...?

[ or because tsuru just is like that. ]
