[ video ] / [ Action for anyone in Luca ]

[tosavecocoon.livejournal.com]

[ When Vanille activates the video function, there's a determined look on her face. She doesn't say anything for a minute, just holding the Sky Phone. But then she looks directly at it and speaks, and her voice is full of quiet determination, the kind that means her decision cannot be swayed. ]

I'm going to see Oerba. I have to see it with my own eyes. Lightning, Serah... take care of Bhakti for me, okay? I won't be gone long.

[ Those who are paying attention might notice she's not in Tifa's apartment. She's not even in the one she's claimed for herself, Lightning, and Serah. She's actually at the docks in Luca, waiting for an airship. This girl's on a mission and she won't be swayed! ]

[Serah returns the hug in kind, taking the moment to catch her breath before she speaks again.] Just barely... who knew docks could be so confusing? [she laughs.]

[ Vanille laughs brightly and nods, pulling back. ] Yeah! It's more confusing than Bodhum was when I arrived. But I like it here. Everyone's been so nice.

That's true. Tifa took us all in... and the kids... it's a nice place to be, by the sea. It's... nice, here.

Yeah! And there's blitzball and Sphere Break, too! Maybe we should play sometime.

Don't you have to hold your breath to play Blitzball....? Underwater? [she laughs.] Guess we'd have to learn how to do that for so long, first.

[ She laughs. she'd meant sphere break, but the other would be fun too! ] We could play Sphere Break, though! It might be fun, even if we never really compete.

I guess so. Now that one would be easier. It could be interesting...

[she trails off before asking,] Do you know how long you'll be gone for?

[tosavecocoon.livejournal.com]

And we might meet people! [ She smiles and then tilts her head, thinking.]

Only a few days, I think. I just want to make sure... Oerba's really there. Maybe something's there that I should know about. [ Like that tree everyone keeps mentioning. ]

[she nods.] Yeah. If Bodhum was here, I wouldn't hesitate going to see it... [even if it was Post Purge, like what her visit to it had eerily reminded her of. It would always be her home.]

People mentioned... a tree, didn't they? I wonder what it could be.

[ She understands. More than she can say. ]

A Myrrh Tree, I think they called it. It's related to the Chalice I woke up with. [ Which she pulls out of hammerspace a bag she's taken to carrying. ] Someone told me this would collect the stuff from the tree. I'd... like to find out.
