[Incoming text message, no subject]

[fearedheir]

[Oh, there is no way this was meant for him.

Still admiring.]

A misfire?

[tripletriadking]

Cloud you just told me how much you liked-


oh fuck.

[fearedheir]

Oh, you know Cloud?

[tripletriadking]

[No message for a few minutes as Squall thinks on if he should answer this or ignore it and hope Rufus never brings it up to him.]




He's my boyfriend.

[fearedheir]

I see. I'm assuming he's told you about me, then?

[tripletriadking]

Yeah.



Look I don't like what I heard but you also haven't done anything to me yet that goes with any of that so I want to give you the benefit of the doubt so....

I guess let me here your side of the story.


...and again sorry for that image.

[fearedheir]

Oh I'm not offended by the image.

But to tell my side of the story: chances are Cloud and whoever else you've run into told you Shinra was responsible for the SOLDIER program and was killing the Planet by way of our mako reactors and that Midgar was a terrible hellhole unless you lived plateside.

That's all true. I was only president for a few months before Meteorfall came and destroyed all of that, but it was still my company and it was my family who had done all of that. In the aftermath I've tried to start with reparations, but it's a little difficult when no one is going to trust you.

I doubt anyone else will know about that last part, by the way. Cloud certainly doesn't, he last remembers the rooftop two years ago.

[tripletriadking]

So you weren't the one who sanctioned all those cruel gene splicing and experiments on any of the Soldiers then, right? Did you know about what they did to them though?

Sorry I'm not trying to accuse you I just want to try and get all the details. As for reparations...I would actually like to help. Not for you or anything just help in general. Cloud and all the other firsts have been incredibly kind and welcoming to me and repairs are something I actually have a skill in.

When my world was restored I spent years rebuilding the entire city from damage from monsters and flooding. I'm not a master craftsman and learned everything on the spot but I'd like to help if I can. I've not heard of meteorfall until now but if you need like a city planner or something...perhaps we can talk so when you do go back you have a plan that can work?

[There is a long pause in texts, he doesn't reply back for at least twenty minutes before there is a knock at Rufus' door. Squall is dressed in some baggy clothes and has two mugs in his hand full of coffee if Rufus opens the door.]

[fearedheir]

I was aware yes, but only after I graduated and became vice president. That program started before I was born, or shortly thereafter.

[That's the last full text message he sends to Squall, as he has to take time to think about how to respond to the rest. It means there's no other unreads when there's a knock at the door.

Rufus gets it, blinking in surprise when it's Squall.]

Hello.

[tripletriadking]

[Squall instantly shoves the mug in Rufus hand before just letting himself in and walking over to the provided table and chair and sits down.]

This is too important for text. Figure we might as well have coffee. You take me as a creme and sugar guy so I put that in yours. Mine is black if you rather switch.

[He leans back a little. Someone, finally, is telling him everything and not bits and pieces and hes not going to throw that chance away.]

So you knew but didn't try to stop anything?

[fearedheir]

Honestly, I'm a brandy sort of guy.

[Rufus please. But he'll take it and gesture for Squall to take a seat.]

There wasn't anything I could with regards to the SOLDIER program. My title was largely for show. [A sip.] And then I was in Junon on house arrest.

[tripletriadking]

You can get Brandy at Seventh Heaven tomorrow. I don't drink myself.

[house arrest huh? Well that would stop anyone.]

So you really didn't get along with your dad I guess....hm... What were you planning to do if he wasn't there?

[tripletriadking]

Hey, you like fish?

[fearedheir]

I don't hate it. Why?

[tripletriadking]

Nyx dropped off an entire Tuna earlier today. I'm making it for dinner. You hungry?

[fearedheir]

Oh. I'd never turn down more of your cooking, Squall, if you're offering. How are you thinking of preparing it?

[tripletriadking]

I have some sweet rice I got recently, you ever have sushi before? If you want you can head over now as I prepare it all.


Lucky could use company.


[What he means to say is please join him for dinner he's a little lonely but Lucky works as a great excuse.]

[fearedheir]

God, I haven't had sushi in years. I'll bring Darkstar then?

[tripletriadking]

Well it doesn't get more fresh than this so, it's gonna taste really good I think. Yeah bring Darkstar. I have more meat if they need too, unless it's okay to give 'em fish?

[fearedheir]

It is, but he shouldn't eat it either way. I'll be there soon.

[tripletriadking]

Yeah I wasn't sure what his diet is but noted. I'll go put some clothes on then. Door is open.

action!

[fearedheir]

[Knock knock. And also a boof, because Darkstar likes this apartment. This apartment has meat.]

Re: action!

[tripletriadking]

[Well he guesses Rufus didn't see his text.]

It's open!

[He's calling from the bedroom as he's working on pulling up his pants and securing the many belts around his waist.]

[fearedheir]

[Unfortunately, D just keeps boofing, so Rufus doesn't hear Squall, and his DTF has decided to not give him the text Squall sent, so he just. Knocks again.]
