001 || dream a dream of me.

[hisdreamsmyfate.livejournal.com]

[Some dreams have some fluidity. They remain constant, with an overlaying theme - much like a storybook of the consciousness. Others can be sporadic, having no meaning, and easily shifting from one thing to the next. They can be serious, or strange. They can be hopeful, or heartbreaking.

Or... they could be Zack's dreams.

As it is, a deep, dark violet night sky floods the area. You might see quite a bit of snow, as if walking up a steep mountain, with the ice wind blowing through your hair. And right at the cliff's edge stands a man wielding a long, sturdy sword, resting safely upon his back. The weight doesn't seem to bother him in the least - if anything, he's accustomed to it by now, both hands on his hips as glowing, bright blue eyes stare off to the distance.

What could be he thinking about?]

And here they were worried about Meteor!

Ahhh, I thought I just had to keep you grounded. More work? [ She sighs like she's sooo tired, but she smiles up at him. ] I have a lot of ideas, actually. A lot of dreams... and wishes. They're waiting for the right time... I think I'm close to finding it. [ Being free of Shinra and able to stand on her own two feet--traveling with AVALANCHE, she thinks she can be that way. ]

President Shinra: HIRE THAT BOY.

Do I at least get to share some of them with you before we get seperated?

I mean... we're here now, but you said I'm only dreaming this. Once I wake up, you'll be gone again.

I'll be in Midgar, you know that. I'm not leaving for a lo-o-ong time. Come find me. [ It's said a bit as a challenge--urging him. She doesn't know what happened, maybe if he'd just gotten that mission done earlier or, or something, he'd still be alive. ]

[hisdreamsmyfate.livejournal.com]

I can visit whenever I want, remember? [He smiles gently, resting his head against hers.] At least, right now.

[auncyenhalig.livejournal.com]

You were the one worrying. [ That's not 100% true--she's worrying too. She just doesn't want to dwell on that. ]

Will you? Keep visiting.

Every day I can, Aerith.

Even if something happens to separate us, I'm gonna be back someday. You trust me on that... right?

[auncyenhalig.livejournal.com]

Zack... [ She stopped writing. She stopped waiting. She didn't forget him, she didn't stop caring, but she did try to move on. Murky as that has been. Is it really honest to say she trusts him to be back, even if she knows his sincerity? ]

...

[ ...Nope, not doing seriousness. ] I don't know if I can trust your sense of direction. [ The look she gives him says it clearly: she's just ribbing him. ]

[hisdreamsmyfate.livejournal.com]

Hey! I can find your place just fine. [That laugh is back, just as light and bubbly as ever and trying to make a bad situation better. Like Zack. Always Zack.

It was the most he could give her.]

If not by you, it's by your little 'followers' down there.

[auncyenhalig.livejournal.com]

If my "little followers" find you first, you really will have to come--to get your wallet back! [ ahaha just because she watches over them doesn't mean they're angels. And Zack's a SOLDIER... yep, she'd bet on his pocket getting picked again. ]

[hisdreamsmyfate.livejournal.com]

That was just one time an' I wasn't expecting it!

[auncyenhalig.livejournal.com]

Hmm? And if you're so sure it won't happen again, you won't be expecting it the next time, either. See? [ CONSTANT VIGILANCE actually who knows what Aerith's point is here. IT DOESN'T MATTER HER LOGIC IS IMPECCABLE. ]

[hisdreamsmyfate.livejournal.com]

Yeah, yeah. Just try an' watch that kid pull a fast one on me again! You'll see.

You don't outsmart SOLDIER First Class Zack Fair.

[auncyenhalig.livejournal.com]

We'll see, then.
