[Selphie had felt the pain of Zelda's death and the people that could have explained it weren't handy or in a talking mood. Instead, the perky brunette is left to hear from word of mouth of the death of a Hero of Light and thought long and hard about what she could do to help. As Cuppa Kupo has fallen into her hands, this seemed like a logical step for her to take.]

To Everybody,

I... don't really know what to say right now. This doesn't feel right, or fair and I know it's gonna be hard for everyone involved.

That said, if anyone wants a safe place to sit and think for a bit, Cuppa Kupo is open to you. I learned that a cup of tea and a person who's willing to listen can help more than any other action. Please know that you don't have to suffer alone.

Anyone is welcome and you're not alone.

Your friend,
Selphie Tilmitt

PS: I have a question for someone who's been around the city for a long period of time. Anyone will do!

Dear Ms. Tilmitt,

I've been around since last February, and except for going into stasis this past October, have been here for the most part. Maybe I can help?

You're very sweet to offer your shop. Ms. Zelda will be dearly missed.

Sincerely,
Lydia Deetz

Hi Lydia,

Call me Selphie! I'm not a teacher by any means. :)

But yes, I think my question might be better asked in person actually. Given how weird Mognet can be sometimes, I think it might be better that way.

It felt like the right thing to do.

From,
Selphie

Dear Selphie,

I didn't think you were a teacher, so much as I was being polite. I'd rather err on that side than on rudeness.

I'll stop by them. I'm not hard to spot, given I'm probably the only person who still has the Vampire job equipped all the time, not to mention I'm rather spooky-inclined.

Sincerely,
Lydia

Lydia,

Sorry about that! Maybe I was being too informal.

Okay. Spooky gal dressed like a Vampire. That shouldn't be too hard to miss. I'll have tea waiting for you!

Thank you,
Selphie

[Lydia wouldn't quite have put it the way Selphie put it, but it was close enough. Didn't seem to be a description born of malice or mockery either. Betel-Po, with his striped fur and shaggy fur around his head follows close behind as Lydia heads for the cafe. Bicycle left outside, she is rather distinctive even without the lack of shadow and silent-movement of the vampire job.

Moving to find an empty table, she's brought her sketchbook and pencils with her.]

[Selphie spots the new patron and smiles warmly. She stops by the kitchen quickly to gather a glass of water for Lydia as well as bringing her two menus. One was the full menu for the cafe and a second was the specials for the day.

The guest was dressed fairly odd but it didn't bother the perky brunette as she placed the glass on the table and placed the menus in front of it.]

Welcome to Cuppa Kupo! I'll be by in a few minutes to take your order. If you have any questions about anything on the menu, don't hesitate to ask.

[Betel-Po immediately looked at the menus, excited and hoping Lydia was done being annoyed with him enough to treat. Lydia looked up, and offered a smile.]

I'm really ok for now. I was hoping to talk to Selphie?

[Selphie beamed at Lydia in response.]

That's me. I'm waiting for a Lydia myself.

[Lydia held out her hand.]

That's me. This is Betel-Po, my companion moogle.

[A bob of his pom-pom covered head, and a "Yo-Kupo" in greeting.]

[Selphie clasped Lydia's hand and shook it firmly before seating herself across from the other girl. The perky brunette grinned at Betel-Po's greeting.]

It's nice to meet you both.

[Selphie rested her arms on top of the table before continuing.] Thank you for coming.

[Lydia shrugged her shoulder. No need to thank her. Betel-Po gave her a big grin and a thumbs-up, as he was looking forward to some food.]

I'm trying to not hermit myself, like I did when the last major downer hit us.

[There's a faint smile, as Lydia is trying.]

You also said you had a question?

[Selphie flagged down one of the moogle waiters and asked them to bring a pot of tea, some cookies and a plate of kupo nuts for Betel-Po. Selphie made sure to always keep lots of kupo nuts handy.]

Yeah... this was more than a bit out of left field, I'll admit.

[Selphie looked at Lydia thoughtfully before voicing her thoughts.]

I do. Well... several actually. Where do I start?

[Lydia's smile stayed, understanding and friendly.]

No, I get that. There's been a lot going on, and it can be hard to organize thoughts after everything.

Yeah... [Selphie nodded her head slightly.]

I thought some of the stuff happening back where I'm from was weird but a string of murders where people come back to life definitely takes that cake.

[She rested a hand over her heart briefly before placing it back on the table. The perky brunette didn't want to reveal her fear to her new friend. It was far too early in their friendship for Selphie to let that wall down.]

[That was part of why Lydia was here though, to help answer questions.]

That whole 'coming back to life' thing is new compared to where I'm from as well.

I think it might be new for a lot of people...

[Selphie nodded briefly as her moogle sat herself at the table next to her partner.]

What about the feeling you get when you know that something bad has happened?

Which one? There are a lot of things to feel, and a lot of 'bad' things that happen here.

[Don't mind Lydia too much, leaning on her arms. She's usually more upbeat than this.]

[Selphie usually is as well but this is one feeling that she just can't shake.]

Like... a sharp pain that's there for the briefest of moments and then it's gone.

[Lydia shrugged. Not that she was meaning to be unkind.]

What about it? I mean...it fades after time.

It just felt wrong.

[Selphie sighed lightly before changing the topic.]

I should've asked these questions long ago. Some SeeD I am... can't even excel at gathering info.

[Lydia offers a kind smile.]

It can be hard dealing with the sad emotions. It's part of life though.

[But she'll accept the change in topic easily.]

What's a SeeD?
