the fragility of the night began to infuse her, a delicate essence that insinuated itself into her being. it possessed a frailty that was vaguely soothing, yet beneath its tender touch, the tendrils of nostalgia coiled, murky and faintly agonizing.

despite numerous months going by, the echoes of time had failed to propel her significantly towards her goal; she remained trapped in the role of a novice summoner, with tons of knowledge yet unexplored and untapped skills awaiting discovery. her contemplations only fractured when a presence materialized beside her, drawing yuna's focus from the starless expanse above to the bleach blonde boy by her side. “ oh, tidus! i wasn't aware you were still awake. ” she remarked, a note of surprise in her voice, a subtle joy in having his unexpected company.

somehow, his presence provided a welcome diversion from the labyrinth of her ruminations. and somehow, it was as if he possessed an innate sense of when she needed him; a silent guardian amidst the silent night.

𝐓𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐓𝐨𝐰𝐧'𝐬 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐥 𝐚𝐭𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐬 as an unexpected balm for Kairi's thoughts as she strolls through its serene streets. in the soft, fading light, a familiar figure catches her attention : ever so casually leaning against a nearby wall, his fiery red hair standing out amidst the dusk. a faint smile blooms across the princess' lips as she paces & soon closes the distance.

❛ Hey you. ❜ the girl greets with a tone that carries gentle warmth. it seems that despite the weighty burdens borne from their roles as keyblade wielders in training, an unspoken understanding continues to linger between them. ❛ How are you holding up ? ❜

❝ i-i dunno but... but i might be the first ! ❞

bokuto briefly sobered up to look at kuroo before descending into another laughing fit. he's seen the other with wet hair many times before so he didn't know why this time was any different, but kuroo looked hilarious. the force of his laugh made him almost fold over in half, and he stumbled over to lean against his friend so he didn't fall over entirely

❝ ahhh, sorry man but you really look like a wet cat right now ! ❞

Mid offers Hope a smile. "It's always a good idea to use my help!" she teases, letting a happy chuckle escape her mouth before she looks at his blueprint. She learned so much from her father, and then at Kanver University. She really plans to help with this knowledge; she can't just waste it. People of the Hideaway need her.

She raises an eyebrow, thinking, as she listens to Hope's world. "An arc ?" she repeats, now her eyes on him. "Is it because you think the world will end and you want to protect everyone ?" She believes in Clive and the others, but maybe being ready for any eventuality would be useful. "But having a safe space or something could be great. I mean, especially with all these strong monsters everywhere!"

Truly. She was astonished that nobody else caught onto the sounds of shrieking buried further in the depths of the forest. Yuna expected Kimahri to have heard it clearer than she and Tidus happened to perceive. Yet he appeared lax and unconcerned with the goings-on beyond their position.

Perhaps he was tired? They have been journeying for some time now. It wouldn't be so farfetched.

At the very least, Tidus was on board to delve deeper into the overgrown vegetation of the forest in search for whomever required their aid.

"I hope that- whoever was down there hasn't been harmed." yet the sound of the screams this unknown individual produced pointed to Yuna's worries being the most plausible reason for hearing it in the first place.

Worst case scenario was, they were going to happen over a body with a fiend as the culprit.
