[It’s obvious that the Esper has been on edge with each passing day. She is in-tune with the flow and ebb of magic and it grated at her senses. It has to be that. That is why she is hearing the memory of a voice long past. Her other-worldly gaze meets Sephiroth and she shakes her head slowly.

It’s better not to worry anyone. She is already being watched as it is.

Why would they watch you?

Terra feels herself laugh at the irony of the question. Could they really care about a monster? She knows that the friendly voice of most is a veneer. All except Sephiroth; she’s trust him for a long time.]

It’s nothing. [Though even as an Esper Terra is an awful liar.]

[neverbeamemory]

[Before Sephiroth had managed to open up a lot of his senses that were also attuned to the ebb and flow of life energy -he's still no where near as sensitive as Terra, mind- Terra had always been one for him to watch and, due to that exact reason, to protect. It serves him well to keep such a mystical creature on side.

So let them watch, Sephiroth would watch them, watching her. Even if generally he kept his distance. Never to get too close.

{....but she-}

He thinks her laugh is a little out of place, but then, anyone worth their salt would laugh off their doubts much as he'd shrug off his own. But she is a terrible liar.]

If there is something. It would be much better to have it out now. Don't you think?

[He lowers his voice to barely a whisper between them again, a thin finger of his presence tempting at that knot of his influence inside of her- coaxing it to reveal the truth. Terra can trust him, like she'd trust no other.]

[greenmagick]

[Her gaze meets his, shining slightly from the magic that coursed through her form. She feels a soft tug either from the voice within her or just a feeling within her own thoughts. She can trust Sephiroth, there has never been a reason not to.

Yeah, Sephiroth is..

Terra silences the voice not wanting to be swayed any further by it. She doesn't need those sorts of doubt or emotions now. She's been so long without them.]

Yes.

[There is a pause as a claw raises to rest over her heart.]

I don't trust the others. They only play their parts like puppets on strings.

[neverbeamemory]

[She's like a delicate flame all on her own. Easy to bask in it's warmth and light, in this case the very obvious power that Sephiroth can tell Terra has, but just as easy to burn oneself if he got too close. Terra could be a vicious creature, indeed, her claws have known no shortage of that. Even if she's more magical by nature.

Satisfied, Sephiroth discreetly dispels the light hold over her and resets his tall and confident posture next to her in the hallway.]

Hm. [How to put this? Without putting too much forward-]

Sometimes, puppets are necessary, Terra.

You know, much as I do, that victory here is only going to those who strive to achieve the same.

[greenmagick]

[She feels her claws flinch as the storm outside continues to rage on. The air is charged; maybe that's what's setting her on edge. Either way she doesn't like it.]

I know, you're right.

[Terra glances up at the tall strong figure who stood with her. He has always been strength embodied in his actions and words. She nods her head as if affirming his sentiments.

I don't think he's right

Though there was no room for doubt in the Espers heart.]

This is all we could have hoped for.

[neverbeamemory]

[Perhaps. Sephiroth isn't so in tune with nature that way at all, even if he does currently feel a little overfilled inside his own mind at the moment. It can't be nerves, it feels almost as if a part of him has been restored. If he had to give an explanation for the feeling, that is.

Odd, considering.]

Agreed. Do try not to work yourself up too much, there will be yet more work to be done once all this is over with.

[greenmagick]

[She gives him a nod knowing that they would survive. Sephiroth is strong and she isn't lucky enough to die as a hero.

Don't say that..

I'm a monster.]

Yes.

[A pause.]

Everything will need to be rebuilt.

[neverbeamemory]

Yes- [A smile just a little too intense for just kindness flashes at Terra in the second before he looks, and then steps away from her.] -yes it will.

[From it's destruction, will finally come the future worth saving.

{...you're crazy...there is no end to it...}]

Don't worry. I promise that it will all be worth it.

[greenmagick]

Thank you.

[The Esper gave him a nod before turning down the hallway. She has nothing else to say and if he does he will stop her. He isn't one for idle chatter and neither is she. Perhaps that is why she feels connected to the strong warrior but then it could be something else.

How do you feel about him?

Feelings had nothing to do with anything and she didn't know why that voice is so insistent on them. They have something to do and they will succeed even if it's just a few of them.]
