[text - and she forgot the anon part!]

[booyaka_boom]

Important - someone please bring sake and chocolate to the chocobo barn. Lots of it. Immediately.

Do not enter the barn. Leave it by the door.

*Not the usual kind of message from Selphie - she had meant for it to be anon, but given how utterly miserable she's feeling, she'd forgotten to turn on the button. So there's your text, Vatheon, from a girl who is suffering too much now that Aya has left the bubble*

[ He doesn't even bother replying to the text. He knows this girl. She's a friend of the Family and any honorary Family gets treated like Family. What he doesn't follow however are her instructions. There isn't any sake at the bar, however. Ronald's confirmed this. He does show up though with a six-pack of beer and a bar of chocolate.

There's a knock at the barn door when he gets there. ]

Oi.

[ Because you do not go a-sulking away from the king when he seeks you out. ]

[booyaka_boom]

*Selphie's surrounded by chocobos in the barn. Most are lying down to rest. There are two sitting at her feet, almost obscuring her from view. When the birds hear the knock, they all sit up at once and squawk in the direction of the door. Selphie only glances up, her voice quiet but hoarse*

Just leave it at the door... thank you...

*She hasn't figured out who this is yet, but she knows she doesn't want to see anyone*

I doubt that alcohol is the best way of managing anything at all.

[text]

[booyaka_boom]

Do you honestly have any better ideas?

[text]

[closedcircuit]

It would help if I knew the situation.

[text]

[booyaka_boom]

The situation is that everyone I ever get close to leaves this place. I'm fed up of being left on my own...

...just so tired of this place...

I just can't be here anymore.

We don't really have a choice, so it comes down to making the most of it.

Even if you don't allow yourself to become attached, the difference you make to someone else's life is still something.

[text]

[booyaka_boom]

That's just it - there's nothing left to make the most of! No one to make it with...

Someone else's life? When is it ever gonna be time for something good to happen in my life? Just to benefit me? It really shouldn't be too much to ask...

[text]

[closedcircuit]

It is.

We can't serve for ourselves, or it isn't really service.

[text]

[booyaka_boom]

Well, here's something, mister: you're not doing so much to help serve me right now with this talk. So thanks.

*Sorry Ky, she is so sad that she can only be mad*

When it's cold and you have no shelter, it turns out you can build one out of snow.

There's always hope.

*His optimism can take it.*

[text]

[booyaka_boom]

I'm in the chocobo barn. That's shelter enough. At least they won't just up and leave me...

[voice]

[immoralflame]

Pretty sure that ain't what you were drinkin' before.

[Aaaaaaaand Sol's just gonna cock an eyebrow at this. Even if she can't see it.]

[text]

[booyaka_boom]

No. But I need it.

*Can't even voice right now...*

[voice]

[immoralflame]

[He can't be assed to type, whoops.]

S'the point in gettin' shit-faced? Y'only forget about th' problem fer a couple hours, if y'manage not to pass out. Hangover's never worth that.

[text]

[booyaka_boom]

*So lazy, Sol. But actually, hearing a voice just now is nice, since it means that there are still people out there*

So? In the morning, I'll either have forgotten all about today, or I'll be worrying about my hangover more than anything else...

[savemegermany]

Ve, what's wrong? I have plenty of chocolate for you.

Text

[booyaka_boom]

Can you bring it?

Text

[savemegermany]

Si, si, I'll bring lots of chocolate~ [ and he'll bring an excessive amount. ]

Text

[booyaka_boom]

Thanks Italy.

*She needs it ALL!*

-> action

[savemegermany]

[ and Italy soon arrives at the location noted above with an oversized basket of fresh chocolate croissants, danishes, and brownies. ]

Seeeeelphieee

actionzzz

[booyaka_boom]

*Selphie glances up from the floor of the barn, where she's snuggled up to some chocobos, who turn to look accusingly at Italy. Her eyes are red and puffy*

Wh-why didn't you...just leave the basket outside...?

actionzzz :D

[savemegermany]

[ he comes in like he's been invited. ]

Because you shouldn't be alone right now! So I've come to keep you company~

foreverzzzz

[booyaka_boom]

*Selphie just shakes her head and presses her face into the wing of the chocobo lying at her feet*

You probably shouldn't...

and evah

[savemegermany]

Ve, I think it's a little too late for that.

[ Italy was good at being a persistent pest. Regardless, he offers her a large assortment of chocolate croissants he had in the box. ]
