[A quick video turns on, showing Aerith with a light smile on her face, obviously out of the Iifa Tree by this point and holding an interesting pink envelope. She has her phone back from Zack now!]

I hope I didn't worry anyone too much. I'm sorry if I did, but everything should be okay now.

[She lifts the envelope, letting the name from whom it was addressed from filter into the screen.]

I'm sure Aerith isn't a common name, but Mr. Basch? Are you sure this letter was meant for me? I would feel terrible if I had forgotten you...

[The letter leaves the view of the camera.]

I'm sure whoever it was meant for is very special, though~

[The camera turns off, but there is a very quiet echo of a teasing 'Zack, I knew you would go and find someone else while I was gone~' before the sound cuts out completely.]

A very unfortunate trick. I am sorry if this has caused any concern.

[video]

[lilyoftheslums.livejournal.com]

None at all~

[There's a short pause before Aerith speaks again.]

But you know, those who write letters expect a letter back. Maybe we should write the culprit one~

[video]

[bearitproudly.livejournal.com]

Hm. That is a thought. Perhaps the moogle knows the true sender?

[video]

[lilyoftheslums.livejournal.com]

Is the one who brought you the letter still near? You should find out!

[Since she's sure the one who delivered the letter to her has long since gone.]

[Oh sure, make him do all of the work! Bad Aerith, no cookie.]

Let me see if it is still here.

[Oh look, there goes Basch chasing after the moogle.

Do you know the letter's true sender?



The Captain hmphed when he didn't get a definitive answer.]

[Aerith huffs a little. Of course, never send a man to do a womans job. She glances around, looking for the moogle who had delivered the letters to her and Zack.

Ah-ha! There it was! She rushes toward it, stopping just in front of him.



I just need to know who sent it~ It definitely isn't from who it says.



The moogle attempts to get away, but Aerith's disapproving stare signals enough that it's stuck until it gives a response. And a response it does spill, one that Aerith isn't as surprised to hear as one would think.



That's all I needed to know~

The moogle is more than happy to leave once Aerith stops her staring.]

I think we have our answer, Mr. Basch~

Little girls? It must be but a game to them.

[There is a hand on her hip.]

And I'm sure I know exactly who they were.

[She puts a hand to her chin, as if contemplating-- but there is a slight smile on her face.]

I guess all that's left is to write them a letter back~

[video]

[bearitproudly.livejournal.com]

And what do you plan putting into this letter?

[video]

[lilyoftheslums.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure yet~ Do you have any ideas, Mr. Basch?

[video]

[bearitproudly.livejournal.com]

That depends. If it is but a mere game to these children, then perhaps we should play along. A thank you letter might suffice.

[video]

[lilyoftheslums.livejournal.com]

That sounds like a good idea to me.

[Now! To procure a piece of paper.]
