I've Been Everywhere Man

((ooc: backdated to before the party and Tidus going to Alexandria because the muns are morons and forgot to do this))

[The door to the house slams as Tidus tries to wring the last of the water from his hair after practice, looking around for his girlfriend. Maybe she was out...]

Yuna? Hey Yuna, where are you?

Yeah, a couple of times. He doesn't talk much, really - he never seemed to have a path, really. Kept talking about not knowing his reason for doing stuff.

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

Maybe, but he seemed okay with it. I don't remember if he found it - but I think he was able to go on anyway. And he helped out a lot of people there.

[And he sees that frown, though barely.]

Maybe you can make him smile.

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

Yeah, really. [She got another kiss at that, against her temple.]

You can make him practice.

[Oh god that laughing where everyone thought they were crazy. Tidus started laughing again at the memory - and the completely implausible idea that Cloud would put up with it. Seriously, that was hysterical.]

You can try!

[He was still laughing a little and really grinning at the idea.]

He won't do it, he's way too serious. We were always trying to get him to lighten up.

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

That might work. Who knows, he's kind of weird.

But you could do it if anyone could.

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

He's really... focused. And he still doesn't know what he's doing.

[Tidus just shrugs; there's really not much way to describe it.] He's a good guy, he really is, but I don't think he knows what he wants, yet.

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

Yeah, and maybe some alcohol or something. [Or some noogies, but Tidus would apply those at random.]

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

Huh? Why not? [Tidus gives her a confused look.]

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

[He's about to ask why... and then it hits him. Yeah, that... wouldn't be good.] Not for me, I promise. Just him. [Tidus kisses her temple again, trying to reassure her.] He's just really stiff.

It's okay bb <3

[He just didn't want to be the type of guy whose family hated him. Having grown up like that, it wasn't something he wanted to repeat. Tidus raises both arms to hook them around her and pull her into him comfortably, letting his head rest on hers.]

We're there for him. Me and Firion and his friends from his home. They came to see me in jail.

[And he's honestly taken aback by that, his eyes widening as he just has no idea what brought this on. His arms tighten around her, but he definitely looks surprised.]

Huh? No, you didn't - you had to go see Anima, you had something you had to do. I hated being there, but nothing happened to me.

You didn't do anything you need to apologize for.

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

Hey, I mean it. You needed to be where you were. [He'd survived. Jail would've been much better with her, sure, but he'd been nothing more than frustrated, angry, and bored.]
