013 [Video/Action for Goldenrod Pokemon Center]

[It's known to quite a few people that Lightning has been sleeping for a week now. What isn't quite as well known, however, is that her Lucario hasn't left her room no matter which human is at her side. So when the gear clicks on to show Lightning still sound asleep, there's the edge of a black paw on the feed. That pretty much clenches who's recording this.

Recording what, you may ask? Well, just watch the human on the bed as she slowly comes back to the world of Johto. She blinks for a bit, obviously still half asleep, before she slowly raises a hand to her forehead.]

Fal'Cie...

[And, before she can say anything else, Lightning is tackled by her Lucario. Over the happy yips and other noises he's making, the sound of the gear clattering to the ground isn't heard by anyone in the room.]

Wait, are you saying she knew about that plan?

[Blink. Blink. Whoa there, Lightning. Getting ahead of yourself again. Have a headshake, Zidane. Memories are a little fuzzy.] No. Not until she made Warrior of Light spill his guts about it. But Kain still hadn't gotten to everyone at that point, if Tifa was right. She could have warned at least you.

Guess there's not much we can do about it now, but...

How're you...you know?

[Here, that is. It's difficult to say because he hates suggesting that she shouldn't be around, but she's saying they were killed, which leaves him confused]

I'm not really sure. [A moment of silence while she stares at her hands, before she sighs.] Maybe because I was here instead of at home before it all happened.

Could be...

If you guys had to go that course, I wish you coulda gone home and been done with that war. Rest of us could pick up the slack and all.

[He really hopes it's home she'll head to if she ever leaves this place, instead of the Void]

I think that's what we were hoping for, Zidane. Maybe not to go home, but that you'd be alright for the rest of the war.

[It's hard, to go to a home you don't even remember.]

According to Cecil, it sounds like we manage that, and get sent home.

But he doesn't remember anything about you guys being there, or even Kain. They're friends wherever they come from, I dunno how he could forget the guy was around.

[Perhaps, but he's a firm believer in the value of home even if he doesn't fully recall why that is. There's a place he belongs, he knows that much]

Good. That's...that's good to know. [Relieved sigh is relieved. She had been worried. A bit.

But now she frowns. If Cecil couldn't remember Kain..] Our memories were tampered with. I couldn't remember my family while I was there, but as soon as I woke up here...it was like I'd never forgotten in the first place.

[Then it's a good thing he'll be able to return someday. She doesn't have that option anymore.]

I know we don't remember our homes, but events and people in the Conflict itself? That's more than a little disturbing.

I don't want to forget anybody, not after all we've been through.

[Considering she didn't remember until today..she gets that.] I know. Whatever happened, those memories are ours. No one should tamper with them.

And even if somebody doesn't agree with that, I'd think we've been through enough that we deserve our say in the matter.

We didn't have a say in getting dragged into the Conflict either, Zidane. Whoever dragged us into that is probably the one who messed with our heads. [Frowny face. She never was too fond of Cosmos.]

Yeah, well, everyone should still play fair.

Not that Chaos' side ever got that memo. You got any idea what's behind us getting brought to this place?

[See this face? If that starts happening, she'll be going in the other direction.]

No. No one knows who or what is bringing us here. There's no way to get back on our own, either.

[Clearly they're gonna have a 'mon war-]

Cecil says the going theory's something about badges, but I'm wondering...

If whatever or whoever it is doesn't present itself, is the way gonna be that obvious?

[Clearly, she won't be holding her breath for it.]

I doubt it. If anything is that obvious, it's probably a trap.

Make people earn badges, then bamboozle them? That's...definitely different, but I'm not giving 'em points for improvisation.

[Headshake.] Giving them points for anything would be a mistake. It would be like giving Cosmos or Chaos points for dragging us into the Conflict.
