To: all Heroes of light

[thegreatninja]

Hello,

I only read some over Yuffie's shoulder but the moment she received Cid's letter she bolted off. I don't know towards where but if you have any idea please let me know...

Or stop her.

Thank you,

-Mooshoo

[OOC: Yuffie's going to try and read all your stuff. If you don't want her too she won't get there in time but if you want to catch her feel free to respond and let me know how much she can read, be it the first sentence or the whole thing.]

[thegreatninja]

Well you shouldn't just do what's expected. You should do what's right.

[That's how Yuffie's constantly lived her life. Though it's been difficult she's proud of who she is and what she fights for.

Her eyes skim over the next entry quickly.]

More fighting? Oh wow... you kicked ass.

[derplander]

I suppose you're right. I've been... having second thoughts about constantly being led around by my nose, blundering into trouble. It's usually for a good cause, but the pain sometimes isn't worth it...

[He nodded.] The knights of Ishgard, 12 plus their leader the Archbishop. I managed to defeat them with my friends.

[thegreatninja]

So you just randomly run around fighting?

Why? I know why I fight. I mean... you have a reason right?

[derplander]

I do have a reason. The Knights 12 and their leader... well, they've been actively suppressing the people in the war against the dragons, feeding them lies. It's a long story but they were willing to try and oppress the common man in order to rule for a thousand years.

They... also killed, a very dear friend of mine. I couldn't let that pass.

[thegreatninja]

[Yuffie is ready with a smart as remark when he gets to that last part. So he doesn't just go around trying to save countries or towns or whatever. Losing a friend is something that Yuffie can relate too.]

Sorry...

[She doesn't apologize often but she isn't sure what else to say.]

[derplander]

It's fine I just... He cared for me, took me in when I was in trouble...

The last thing he said to me. 'A smile suits you better'...

[He wiped his eyes a little.] Sorry. It's still a little raw.

[thegreatninja]

Then you should smile.

[For Yuffie it's really that simple but then she's used to that sort of loss. It never really goes away.

She slips in front of Meteor which is a little awkward but she doesn't care. Her fingers pinch his cheeks pulling slightly so his lips are curled upward.]

See- Smile!

[derplander]

[Despite himself, he did smile at Yuffie's enthusiasm.] Thank you, Yuffie. I just... no, there's no just. I should smile, because he was my friend. And I loved him.

[thegreatninja]

[She releases his cheeks and steps back with a smile.]

Exactly!

Not so hard is it.

[Yuffie glances back at the screen before looking up towards the door. She's done with snooping for the day.]

[derplander]

It isn't.

[He smiled as he closed his file. There was more enough to see. Besides, that last entry... Warrior of Darkness...]

I'm getting a bit peckish. I have some gil, care for a snack at the local vendor?

[thegreatninja]

[Yuffie will never say no to free food.]

Hell yes! What cha thinking?

[derplander]

I think there's a cake shop isn't there? At least, hopefully. Lets go get some cake.

[thegreatninja]

Sure!

[Yuffie runs towards the door before looking back at Meteor.]

Come on

[derplander]

[And he's coming along. There's food at least, right?]

[thegreatninja]

[Once outside Yuffie will grab Meteor's arm and pull him towards the cake store in question. Her footsteps rang with an excited step as they walked.]

I want chocolate.

[derplander]

Chocolate I can do. Is there berries as well?

[Because he was a big fan of berries.]

[thegreatninja]

[Yuffie shrugs.]

I don't know. I'm sure they have strawberry.

[Strawberry is usually common.

She walks up to the counter and then procceeds to crouch in front of the display case.]

They look so yummy.

[derplander]

[Following Yuffie up to the food, he had to nod. Everything looked very good, and he felt his stomach rumble.] Two please, one for her and one for me. Chocolate and... well, I guess I'll be looking around a bit?

[thegreatninja]

[Yuffie nods at the woman with a smile. Her excitement turns the late teen into a young girl again.]

I was never allowed to eat many sweets growing up.

[Of course that had been through the reconstruction of Wutai as a tourist location. There is a lot of things that Yuffie wasn't supposed to do then. Not that it really has stopped her.]

My favorite is matcha ice cream.

[derplander]

I hadn't eaten much growing up either.

Matcha? I don't think I've heard of that... [same goes with ice cream. It really wasn't a thing that was common back home.]

[thegreatninja]

[Yuffie just nods her head as the man behind the counter handed over their cakes.]

It's a type of green tea.

[derplander]

Oh, I'm familiar with tea. Wait... oh! Green tea, yes, yes I am familiar with the substance. Although we use the teas for leatherworking back home.

[Eorzea life, it was weird.]

[thegreatninja]

[Yuffie blinks.]

That's weird.

[She takes her cake and finds a small table in the bakery. It has two chairs though the table can barely it two plates. She sets her's down and begins to munch on chocolaty goodness.]

This is so good!

[derplander]

[Setting his down, he took a bite and made a pleased noise.] This is very good too! The cream is unlike anything I've tried before.

[thegreatninja]

[Yuffie is almost done her cakes in seconds. She doesn't take the time to stop and talk about it. It's too yummy for that. Once the plate is empty she drops her fork with a wide smile.]

You're telling me! That was awesome!
