[Aerith has set up the Skyphone on a table nearby, and the Cetra is seated in a chair across from the screen. There is a heavy pile of papers in front of her, covered in typed out text. She's flipping through the pages with a thoughtful expression, and is apparently separating them as her eyes skim the paragraphs and bullet points. One stack is the one she's slowly perusing, while the other is very small. She grabs the page she's currently going over, crumpling it in her hands before tossing it into a trash can set beside her chair.]
Most of this isn't worth being read, but some of it is...interesting. I can only remember so far back, and though a lot of it I don't want to remember, there are things I don't want to forget, either.
[She flips through the short pile, the one she intends to keep, pulling out one of the pages. There's a picture on it, printed in color, and she holds it up to the screen.]
This was my mother. [She says it proudly, without a hint of sadness, though there might be the tiniest trace of it lingering within her eyes.] Wasn't she beautiful?
[Private to Zack]
So, when's our next date, Mr. Fair? Or do I only get one? [Wink.]

Date: 2011-02-01 07:31 am (UTC)Pink's a good color on you, y'know.
How 'bout tomorrow? And is there anything in particular you wanna do or see?
[Video//Private]
Date: 2011-02-01 07:41 am (UTC)I'd get you back for that if you were here, you know. [She's chuckling, though.]
Tomorrow is good. [She shakes her head.] You know the city better than I do. Besides, what we do isn't important. I just want to see you.

Date: 2011-02-01 07:49 am (UTC)I find that hard to believe. You love every second of it.
I had a feeling you'd say that, though. So I'll...take you out for some dinner and then we can walk along the beach and just, I dunno, look at the city lights and irk all the locals who think holding hands in public is a sin.

Date: 2011-02-01 07:58 am (UTC)Sorry! [She gives him an apologetic smile.]
That sounds perfect. [She laughs, then.] It's only because we make them jealous.

Date: 2011-02-01 08:02 am (UTC)Yeah, let's...let's not test that out. Ever.
Of course we do. Two good lookin' souls in one spot is almost tragic in its unfairness, right?

Date: 2011-02-01 08:07 am (UTC)I wonder what it would take to make a First Class SOLDIER blush? [She teases right back.]
Not everyone can be as lucky as we are, I guess.

Date: 2011-02-01 08:20 am (UTC)That, sweetheart, is a secret.
...We really are. Even before all this, I thought we were the luckiest people to have each other.
[Video//Private]
Date: 2011-02-01 08:31 am (UTC)That just means that I'll have to try really hard.
[Her smile softens.] I never stopped believing that. Not once. [To go on would mean delving into very serious and less happy topics, and she's not sure now is the time for that.]

Date: 2011-02-01 08:38 am (UTC)Good luck, darlin'.
I'm glad.

Date: 2011-02-01 08:44 am (UTC)This is the part where you say I'll need it, right?
Mm, right back at you, mister~
[Video//Private]
Date: 2011-02-01 08:46 am (UTC)So I'll come get you around...five tomorrow, okay?
