Tomorrow's Dream

It's been 22 years, that's too many.

I'm not very good at it and that's why I employ small children to do all my work for me.

I'm so old!

I got my fists, that's all I need.

He's actually just drunk and he's absolutely wasted on the ground, which is very funny.

They're organized by these weird bubbles but also like categories.

I actually might die here.

That's a good deal!

Yeah, you probably want to keep that on the down low. You don't really want to advertise that.

You got to do whatever is funniest for the bit.

I think she needs some blood.

No, no, we've done enough gambling.

It's thirsty work, fighting all this organized crime.

I can give a little punch.

Well, let's just kill it.

It's a very twisted way to get them to move on to the afterlife, just kill them again, that'll calm them down.

Behold, the obstacle.

Was there a convention on this route?

Do you know about birds?

You can't just do that to the poor man.

Let me throw a rock at it.

I am desperate for these eggs.

You do not stand a chance in the face of this delicious chicken sandwich.

Please mind your head on the way out because…fuck knows how you get out.

I want the money, I gotta get the money.

Who's putting these boulders back!

I don't remember this area like, whatsoever.

If this is your favorite, you need to be locked up.

Gonna get some new birds.

Ah, but yes. He wanted to be taken back through, didn't he?

"Right, let me tell th'others." She moved over to where Rammbroes, G'raha Tia, and her brother were speaking. Cid was chatting with Biggs and Wedge nearby, pointing out something or another.

"M'gonnae take a walk back through th'rooms, see if there's anythin' worth salvagin'," she spoke up, gesturing behind her. "Hope's comin' with me. If somethin' happens, I'll scream."

Rammbroes looked over to her, then to Hope, and gave a nod.

"Very well. It'll be good to check to see if any of the traps have reset since you made your way through them, but do be careful," he said.

A'kihiko agreed, "Right. G'raha Tia and I will likely do the same, so if you get stuck... just wait, I guess."

G'raha nodded as well, although he looked a little envious that Meiko was going ahead. "Yes, we'll catch up with you soon."

"Aye." Meiko gave a little wave and turned back to Hope. "Right. Shall we?"

She nodded ahead towards the western branch off from the main room.

Maybe it wasn't too surprising that their civilization had come to an end. Too much hubris tended to be fatal.

He was careful to watch his step as they travelled back through the labyrinth, not wanting to take the risk of stepping in any of the acid that Meiko had mentioned. He hadn't seen any on the way here, but that didn't mean there might not still be some around.

That's so mean! I worked really hard on mine!

Your Mom wears combat boots!

I dreamt I was a moron.

So, how did it feel out there on the battlefield?

A speech…? Forget it. Cut the mic!

I hate it when people wish me luck. Save those words for someone that needs them, eh?

Sounds like a brat…I mean, a spunky girl.

Don't scare me like that!

I'm fine by myself now. I have all the skills I need to survive.

Oh, you knew?

This isn't some kinda club you can sweet-talk your way into.

To tell you the truth… I worry too much about what others think of me.

Why do people depend on each other? In the end, you're on your own.

Even if you become the world's enemy, I will be your knight

You guys…sure have guts. You know how high this cliff is…?

Collect all the hot dogs and store everything in the secret shelter. Don't leave anything for the enemy.

Thanks to you guys, I was able to see how much I was loved.

Hey, hey, hey, what's up? I'm not invited? I thought I was part of the gang.

Just a little longer… I don't wanna go back…

Man, you look way too serious.

I don't want anyone to look back and regret this day.

Why do you always play me like that?

You know what…? I'm gonna do something. I'm tired of sitting around watching others and judging them.

I have no musical aptitude whatsoever.

Do you actually have fun acting so callous towards your comrades?

I say things that get a rise out of some people. Just don't let it bother you and we'll get along fine.

I've come this far because I've… fallen for you.

…This guy needs to grow up.

This is my house. But don't make yourselves too comfortable!

I hate having nothing to do. It gets me thinking too much.

Right and wrong are not what separate us and our enemies. It's our different standpoints, our perspectives that separate us.

There are no guarantees in the future. That's why TODAY, the time we have now, is important.

I don't believe in relying on others.

You're still a teenager. Why don't you act like one for a change?

Forget it. I don't want friends who won't be around tomorrow.

I feel like a helpless puppet being manipulated in some major scheme.

You should feel honored that a very, very cute girl sat on your bed, you know!

…I don't need you to understand me.

This is so typical. Adults reminiscing and talking on and on about the things they couldn't do or didn't do… I hate it.

Someday you're bound to lose everything. Everyone around you will be gone. Then what are you left with? Nothing. Nobody…

I don't want the future. I want the present to stand still. I just want to stay here with you…

This is the scene where you swear your undying hatred for me!

Well, fine then! We WILL have a good time!

Someone might not be there. Someone you love may disappear before your very eyes. It's tough when you live your life thinking that way. But that's why I fight…

Heeey! Lookin' good!

You have to voice your feelings or else I won't understand.

Am I that untrusting…? Maybe I'm this way because I'm scared. Nothing lasts in this world.

Everyone has to take care of themselves. I don't want to carry anyone's burden.

I'm more complex than you think.
