☈ strike #04 (voice / action)
[ It takes a while before Lightning finally attempts getting in touch with those she interacted with the most (and who she assumes probably figured out who she actually was) while aged down and in Zack's body. When she does, it's filtered to those mentioned, but not particularly secured against hacking or anything, clearly having been 'posted' quickly and with a tone of voice that's very short and to the point. ]
Zack, Aerith, Cloud- we need to talk.
[ And after that's all been taken care of, well... all that's left is to gather up her dignity and try to move on from the whole damn mess, right? Get some fresh air and cool her head, pick up something from the grocery that isn't in a can and won't choke her with flavor....
Problem is... the experiments' effects are far from done with her.
One of these is what Lightning is this evening, instead of the pink-haired ex-soldier she should be. And as if suddenly finding herself as a chocobo isn't bad enough, that's when that oh-so-nice random teleportation kicks in too, sending her... oh, who knows. The middle of town? Your front porch? Who wouldn't want a massive eight foot tall yellow bird in their bathroom? Look at those long curly eyelashesand huge killer claws! ♥ ]

..... Where do you want to be?
[action]
Sunny side up, please.
[action]
Huh?
[ You're talking to someone who's still newly-familiar with the concept of a non-fal'Cie sun in the first place, you know. Never mind any egg slang that has to do with it. ]
[action]
--You know, let's skip the eggs. Those aren't so important.]
Because clouds get their silver linings from the sun. Light and hope--they're connected. But yes, I'd rather look on the positive side of things.
1/2 [action]
2/2 [action]
... Yeah.
[action]
[She doesn't know about Hope! 8(]
[action]
It's nothing. Just a weird coincidence.
[ Oh no it's fine. Just go and ruin her day, it's cool. ]
[action]
Hmm... Oh, because you go by "Light", too? I guess it does sound a little funny that way. [Not that she gets the "Hope" connection still; just thinks of it as Light not seeing herself as an optimist. She smiles gently, but won't press too hard with Lightning seeming bothered.]
Was there anything else you wanted to talk about?
[action]
... Not really.
[ Kind of got derailed there... was there anything else she can think of? Well, there's the whole rose thing, which is hard to entirely forget when surrounded by flowers, but. Kind of awkward for Lightning to bring up herself right now. ]
[action]
[action]
What is it?
[action]
[And she's off to another part of the flower patch. So Lightning can probably guess what this is!]
[action]
[action]
[...She's not crazy. Honest. Anyway, she's fingering the stem of another rose, this time pink (http://www.balidailyphoto.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/pink-rose.jpg).]
Did you figure out if you like flowers? You seemed to like roses as a girl.
[action]
I did.
[action]
There's no harm in enjoying natural beauty.
[action]
[ Lightning's careful in taking it- she knows all too well about thorns on roses recently removed from their original source, after all.
Obvious symbolism is extremely obvious, yeah?She stays silent, however, despite obviously contemplating something else. ][action]
Do you want a vase for it?
[action]
[action]
[action]
You're thinking I'm hard to read, right? So... what do you think?
[action]
I think you have an awful lot on your mind. But that's only natural. Just try not to get lost in there! And I figure it'll be easier as we get to know each other.
[action]
... Spent so long trying to be someone, maybe even I don't know any more.
