[closed/open/whatever]

Who: Squall Leonhart & Various & OPEN
What: Monthly catch-all for threads
When: Month of September
Where: Various locations in Crystallis
Warnings: To be announced


[ Closed to Castmates; House A-04 ]

[After the turbulent introduction of new heroes early this month, Squall is glad to find himself at home for at least a few hours. Between finding Zell awake, dealing with the aftermath of Palitutu’s plans and avoiding Selphie for her little sleep spell trick, Squall is happy find some solace in his home.

But even home, Squall finds himself working. On his kitchen table is a litter of maps and books that all have to do with Crystallis and the cities and towns inside of it. Squall has only been here for a few months, and compared to some other residents he doesn’t know as much as the others.

With the calamity getting worse, Squall is brainstorming a trip to visit the various effected sites.

His friends might find a way inside or he might answer the door. Either way, he can be found studying.]


[ OPEN; House A-04 ]

[Squall’s home is one of the smaller ones at the end of the block. It only houses two people but that suits Squall just fine. For all he knows as of right now he’s the sole occupant.

One (you) might be walking by when a loud bang is heard from the house and a stream of thick black smoke starts emanating from the back.

Following the smoke to the backyard is Squall and his Magitek Armor. He has grease smeared across his cheek as he holds a wrench and has a rather annoyed look on his face. The giant piece of gear sits smoking with a pile of ice elemental components stacked neatly next to it.]


...

[ Closed to Akane; University Training Rooms ]

[ As per contract, Squall is waiting for Akane to show up for her lessons. He’s slightly unsure about how to go about the entire lesson but he has some ideas on what to teach. Squall doesn’t think he’s a very good teacher. He’s a commander, he tells people what to do for a living, so that can’t be much different than teaching. ...Right?

Either way, he’s getting paid for this so he can’t complain. Whatever. A job is a job.

Squall is waiting for her in the designated room, dressed in simple black sweat pants and a white t shirt. After all, basics don’t require any armor or heavy gear. And if Akane needs help as she claims she does, this is fine for now.]


[ OPEN; Training Rooms ]

[Squall is a Warrior and a Magitek Knight. He can be found at various times of the day on several days of the week taking advantage of the training rooms.

In one instance he can be found in a training room practicing his sword skills. Specifically his Warrior skills. He’s adept already and quite talented. He moves with precision and ease. If you’re looking for a sparring partner he’s more than likely to take you up on the offer.

The second instance you might find him in is the target practice room. Indeed using his gunblade to take out targets with various elemental bullets. The shooting is loud but watching, you’ll find that Squall’s accuracy is near perfect. He wouldn’t be opposed to discussions on gunblades or other like weapons.]

[Was going with Squall even a question? Zell wanted to see more of the Calamity too. Maybe they could discover something that may have otherwise been overlooked or something! All Zell knew was that they needed to know more than the heroes before them if they were to have any hope of stopping the Calamity for good.]

Of course we'll come with ya!

[Zell grinned at him and brought up a fist as if that could show his resolve better. It felt really good to know he could team up with Selphie and Squall again. It reminded him of home, and definitely helped to prove that this Squall was the commander he remembered.]

Yeah, we're livin' in the same house again.

[Maybe the house was loud; Zell hadn't lived there long enough to know. It wouldn't be as energetic as the house he lived in before with Selphie and Sora and Meredy...]

Think so? I guess if I gotta live with people, it's nice that it's with someone I already know.

[Even though it didn't take long for him to know other people too. He paused and offered Squall a small smile.]

But it figures you wouldn't feel strange livin' on your own!

[He probably could have left it at that, but Zell was used to talking and expressing his feelings.]

I mean, I like having my own room, and it's annoyin' when other people just throw things around and leave a mess around the house! I always gotta clean it up afterwards! ... But livin' in Garden for so long and then traveling with you guys all the time after becoming a SeeD, it would feel way too weird for me to suddenly live on my own.

[He frowned a second, knowing how that could have come out like he was just a kid still, but it wasn't like that at all!]

It's just... too quiet! But I guess that's why you like it.

[Likewise, Zell can understand that the life of solitude could work for Squall. But Zell also agreed with Selphie that he shouldn't have to feel like he has to do everything on his own. Squall might fall back into that mindset if he's left alone all the time. Besides, Zell liked to think they were friends. Squall had turned into Zell's best friend, after everything they'd been through. Despite their differences.]

Alright, just... call on us if you need us! And it might be nice to just hang out every now and then. Besides, we gotta go save the world again, so...

You ain't alone, alright?! If you ever need us for anything, we'll be there!

[Zell knew by now to look for the hidden and small details of Squall's expression and tones. It was probably because of those details while the words were said that made Zell believe him, more than the words themselves. Though for as much as Squall used to talk before, Zell would have believed Squall even if he didn't notice those tiny details too.

Zell, in turn, smiled at him. Just like that, the worry was gone. Selphie had been wrong, it seemed.]


Yeah, I get it.

[To both not worrying over Squall and the hanging out thing. This house was just a larger version of Zell's room at his ma's house.]

We should hang out somewhere else then, when we ain't takin' care of the Calamity. It ain't like we'll have a lot of free time anyway, so you don't really gotta worry about it!

Sure, but it's changed a bit since I last saw it. But everythin' should still be around the same areas!
loudestseed: (hm thinking)

[personal profile] loudestseed 2016-09-25 06:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah.

[He frowned.]

Wonder if they got someone who can make my gloves now...!

Anyway, when did you wanna go?
