Kunsel is gone.

[soldierfirst]

You are certain?

[colorofthesky]

I checked his room.

It's empty.

[soldierfirst]

At least there is no need for a Killed in Action form here.

Thank you for letting me know.

text.

[colorofthesky]

Sure.

[ A small delay, then: ]

How are you doing?

[soldierfirst]

[The reply takes even longer to come, because h does not know how to answer. Sephiroth is struggling with sorting out the truths of his own life from the lies— no small feat— and he is still unsure of how to treat those he had once called friends. But Zack has his own burdens, and many of them.]

I am fine.

[ Zack knows none of this, of course, and again, there's a bit of a delay before he answers. ]

You want to do something later?

text.

[soldierfirst]

I always have time for you.

[colorofthesky]

The usual spot?

[ On the beach since they do their training there in the mornings. ]

text.

[soldierfirst]

That would be fine.

When?

text.

[colorofthesky]

A little after sunset.

text.

[soldierfirst]

Accepted.

Should I bring anything with?

text.

[colorofthesky]

Just something to sit on.

[ He's got the rest covered. ]

text.

[soldierfirst]

I will see you in a few hours.

text.

[colorofthesky]

See you.
