[Phone Call]

[Ring ring, Squall. Your buddy wants to have a surprisingly serious talk with you.]

[The phone rings a couple of times before he picks up.]

Yes?

[princessstealer.livejournal.com]

So I've still got those Triple Triad cards I stole from you.

[...Doesn't mean everything has to be serious.]

[knighted-lion.livejournal.com]

Still?

[princessstealer.livejournal.com]

I did just get back, you know. Can't exactly return something if I'm not here to give it back, right?

...Look, we need to talk. You and me, and you and me and Rinoa.

[knighted-lion.livejournal.com]

About Seifer, right?

[princessstealer.livejournal.com]

That's the start of it, yeah.

[Pause.]

You're one of my best buddies, Squall, but when everything went down last year I didn't know you... I just want to talk.

[knighted-lion.livejournal.com]

Sure.

[princessstealer.livejournal.com]

Geez, don't you ever say more than one word at a time? Okay, I know Rinoa wasn't... herself... then, but we never got to sort it out 'cause of everything else going on. Can we meet up at some point?

[knighted-lion.livejournal.com]

Yeah. We can meet up. Just let me know when.

[princessstealer.livejournal.com]

Soon. Before that meeting, probably - I get the feeling everything's gonna get a lot more complicated after that. Things usually do when Cid gets going.

[knighted-lion.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I've noticed.

[princessstealer.livejournal.com]

Hah! Not yet you haven't! Everything's been low key from him so far; things are about to get hoppin'.

[Zidane pauses, and then continues.] I mean it, Squall. I'm not going to have Rinoa arrested again or anything. But we never got this solved. I just want to finish it.

[knighted-lion.livejournal.com]

[Again, he nods, although the only indication of it is a moment of silence.]

Sure. Just let me know when.
