Just wanted to let everyone know that Cloud's okay. He came home safe and is resting right now. Simon and Denzel, too.

Hey, uh, Tifa or Aerith, can I ask a favour of you guys?

Man, this place has been rough lately... I feel like we all need some kind of holiday. I'm baked.

Probably not. I don't have much to bet here.

Then we'll bet favors. Not like a "watch my kids" or "go get me something" favor, but something big. That neither of us wants to do. Or we could bet dares.

Truth or Dare and Spin the Bottle?

Gold Poker, Fair, now pick your bet.

You have to clean out Tammy's pen twice a week for a month if I win.

Ugh. She might be your princess, Zack, but she sure doesn't shit rainbows and mythril.

Why do you think I'm passing the cleanup job to you.

Fine. If I win...I don't know yet. You have to do whatever I say.

That's vague and boring, but fine. You're on.

I'll come up with something. [Cloud deals before taking up his hand, tweaking the order of his cards a bit.]

...this is the first time we've played cards, isn't it?

[Zack waits patiently, sitting back in his chair.] I think so. I can't remember us having a chance before.

I'm pretty good, y'know. [Discards, picks up replacements.]

I'm a little rusty. You might get lucky. [Playing, playing, blah blah blah.]

[Fast forward to the end, with Cloud glaring at the differences in their hands and adding up the points. Luckily no subtraction is require to know which one is bigger.]

...best two out of three.

Sore loser. [Epic win. 8|]

Rgh. Fine. [Fighting a yawn now. He is not tired, shhh.]

I think it's bedtime anyway. I'm ready for a nap.

All right. You should go get some sleep. [Cloud collects all the cards, straightening them and stuffing them back into the box.]

Only if you sleep, too. You want more of that tea stuff?

No, I want the boys to be able to wake me if they need me. [Cloud shoves his chair back and stands and- whoa, wobble. Catches himself with a hand on the table.]

[FFFFF gdit Spike, give him a heart attack why don't you. Zack's immediately at his side, winding an arm around his shoulders.] Okay, now you're definitely going to bed.

I already said I was going. [It's just a dizzy spell, geez. You mother. Cloud doesn't move away though...it's kind of nice to have the contact, after isolating himself like he did the day before. He sure is a social creature for claiming to be such a hermit.]

Uh-huh. [Zack's just going to wait for him to steady himself, though he's not letting go even if Cloud tries to escape.]

[Cloud...still doesn't move. Even after he's gotten his bearings again.]

[Zack just tightens his grip a little, making sure he's got a firm hold. He's keeping you safe, Chocobo Head.]
