✪ Silent return. Lets not dwell on yesterday. ✪ [Audio]

[Cube's voice sounds very level when the feed starts.]

I'm sorry.

I hope everyone from the voyage is alright now.

[Awkward silence.]

I suppose I should return to Cafe Alpha to see what may need to be addressed.

If there is anyone willing to assist me in moving furniture about Discedo, I'd appreciate the help.

Thank you.

[Private to Flandre | 75% Locked]

Where are you, Flandre-chan? Are you alright?

(ooc: Cube has been revived. Feel free to run into him in the hospital, cafe, or anywhere in-between.)

[before he can say anything. Before the thought even registered, he's tackles by Yuffie.]

Ah!

[He begins to flail, only to realize it's his friend. He seems to be wearing unusual clothes for himself, making the situation even more awkward and embarrassing for him because oh my it's a regular tee-shirt and shorts. His skin is showing. Oh dear.]

Y-Y-Yuffie-c-chan! Y-You shouldn't surprise me like that.

Hm, hm?! I told you I would be here. That's not a surprise.
[Looks down at him as she's sitting on top of him. Well, it's not hard for her to notice. Cube is always wearing stuffy clothing.]

Hey, I see you finally ditched those hot clothes. Was wondering if you had arms or legs at all. Summer's just around the corner.
[Summer is all the time for Yuffie who just wear shorts.]

Edited 2012-05-08 15:55 (UTC)

I-I didn't ditch them! T-They were left with my body when I died. I-I'm only using th-these temporarily and-

Of course I have arms and legs! It's just- I- I'm not very comfortable showing so much of myself.

Summer or not, t here is appropriate attire for every season, a-and this is not what I feel is appropriate b-but-

[It's all he had under short notice. And speaking of short, he is trying to tug his shorts down a bit further, even though they couldn't hope to cover his legs. His face is still very red.]

You're a odd one. Who wants to wear long sleeves and pants in the summer anyway.
[Probably the same person that likes to wear shorts in the winter, but meh details.]
They look pretty natural on. Kinda cute even~
.
[Teases]

[There was a brief pause as she looked at him. She really didn't know the details of what happened and she definitely you dying. So she looks confused.]

Huh...? What about your body?

A-Ah, s-sometimes short sleeves are appropriate, but never shorts. A bathing suit with shorts is alright, I suppose, but a steward doesn't swim unless he must. [But a dog can swim all it wants. Oh, how he is beginning to miss having his magic around...

And Yuffie's last question doesn't make him fell any better. In fact, he moves past her and to the counter.]

Ah, we were attacked and, well, my skin... it was taken from me. I didn't live through it. B-But d-don't worry! Aniki retrieved my items and clothes for me. I just... I thought it more important I come see you and the cafe.

[He trusts Marco to take care of is items a small while longer.]

I'm sure it was hard to clean up after such bad weather.

[Yuffie kinda had that effect where a deer in the headlights. She just got blind sided all of a sudden. He looked fine, then again she had heard that you could die here and come back. She never really confirmed this, not that she wanted t, but it was all pretty odd. To have your skin taken just......gross and sounds like the most horrible thing ever.]

H-uh...? W-wait, wait, wait you died?

[Shakes her head before turning around.]

But...you DIED?

[Why are you being casual about it? Quit being casual about it. She looks worried.]

Edited 2012-05-10 06:41 (UTC)

[It was very horrifying. More so than the first time he died after being tortured by an assassin from his world.]

Ah, actually... it's the third time I've died in this world.

Don't think much of it, Yuffie-chan. I'm thankful for being revived again by the scientists.

[You know, instead of being sent home. He tries to remain casual about it, although so many things were eating away at him. All the more reason to start cleaning!]

T-third? But that's....it's not even...
[Fuuuu--you died that many times?!

People shouldn't die that many times. When they die they stay dead. Not that she wants you to. She'd prefer it if you didn't die.

Her hands are running over the top of her head in frustration.]

WILL YOU STOP CLEANING?!

Edited 2012-05-10 07:14 (UTC)

[Don't use your OCD as an excuse to ignore her! 8|]

T-thankful?! THANKFUL?! You shouldn't be thankful to those bastards! If it wasn't for them people wouldn't have to be here or even be in danger! Worry about family and friends back home. Wonder when the next disaster is gonna come..

Or...or...
[Her fingers curled and balled up into a fist. Cube she REALLY wants to just punch you in the back of your head right now.]

Edited 2012-05-10 07:15 (UTC)

....die all the time. [Her voice lowered slightly.]

Even if you come back it's still not right. You can't be so casual about it just like that. 'Whoops, I died again. WELP.' I can't accept that. I'm not gonna accept that. That's stupid to just be all 'la dee freakin' dah about it. It's...it's....

[Can't really even be bothered with words anymore. She'd like to just beat you over the heat repeatedly with a broom. But instead her eyes began to water and she drew in her bottom lip. She hated crying. So MUCH and she's only ever cried so much one time, actually two.

Though, she couldn't help but come up behind cube and wrap her arms around him and press her forehead against his back.]

[What was it with everyone lecturing him today? At first, he tries to smile it all away. Yes. Just keep smiling and cleaning.

But when Yuffie's voice lowers, her words start to penetrate though his smile, causing it to fade. He doesn't even turn around to look at her, simply lets his hand trace over the photo frames on the counter.

When the arms come around him, he tries to remain still, but his shoulders still quake lightly.]

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I hurt you.

[His voice breaks a small bit more.]

But I really am thankful. I- I know it's difficult. I know it hurts being here...

But without the scientists, I wouldn't- I- I wouldn't have the family I have.... o-or... the memories.

S-So... no matter what happens to me, I'm thankful for being brought here.... and I'm happy they keep bringing me back... mistake after mistake.

And I'm happy to have been able to meet everyone, even if the're sent away, gone, and may never return. I- I wouldn't... I wouldn't give it up for anything.

[Cube still refuses to look at Yuffie, streams of tears outlining his face. No, he couldn't look at her right now.]

I'm sorry.

[There was a soft tremble from her as she leaned against him and kept her head against his back.

It just felt so unnatural to just to look at the brighter side of this. It wasn't a bad thing...it's what she tried to do if things looked really piss poor at the moment. Even if you knew things were not everyone should be thinking like that. There had to be a positive thing to look at from some angle. Though dying that many times...she felt like it can have a heavy effect on one's body, mind and heart. She wouldn't be able to keep anything like that in for long.]

D-don't...be worrying...so much...

[A shaky breath came from her mouth once she exhaled. Hands overlapped one another when they lifted to place themselves over his heart.]

You of all people aren't hurting me....
