Late Night Visit

[igneousdogtag]

Open to loudchickenwuss

[A continuation of this long text message convo.]

[As promised, Seifer kept his dorm room front door unlocked. He sat in the small kitchen and, as he mentioned before, he was studying. Books laid out and one glance at the table would make it obvious he's studying with all the note-taking he's doing. Huh, who knew he could be studious if he really wanted to be. He hit the send button to send one last message to Zell before putting his phone down taking the last bit of notes he wanted to remember for the exam tomorrow. He figured he could look these over in the morning before the exam itself. This was easy street anyway so Seifer was confident he'd pass it.

He then looked at the front door and give it a squinty-eyed look for a moment. He shook his head before he said in a normal tone of voice.]

I told you the door's unlocked. Open it. Don't make me call you chicken wuss.

[And with that, he grinned. He figured he'd get Zell's attention that way.]

Comments

[igneousdogtag]

I don't know if it's so much a challenge for me as it is for the new kids? Hell if I know.

That just means you gotta watch your volume. I don't care if you're loud. People are just jealous that they aren't getting any.

[loudchickenwuss]

If to many attack at once it could mean big trouble for you.

But don't you care what they will think of you? Think of me if I'm loud?

[igneousdogtag]

They usually don't attack in groups, though. But if one's with a T-Rexaur, that's gigantic trouble.

I don't really care what they think of me, no. There are only a handful of people that I care what they think of me. I mean if they say something bad about you, well... that's part of the reason why my Hyperion's here.

[loudchickenwuss]

Be safe in the training area.

This is where we are different. Sort of. There are some things I don’t care about what others thing but this? I don’t know. I care what your neighbours think.

[igneousdogtag]

See, the reason I don't really care what they think is because I don't know who they are and they already have a huge dislike for me because I wouldn't let them get off scott free for being late to class.

Looks like you'll just have to watch how loud you get or some shit. Besides, I don't think they know it's you, anyway.

[loudchickenwuss]

…but I want to be liked…

It will come out eventually. They will see us together at some point.

[igneousdogtag]

I know you do. I guess that's where we're different. I only want to be liked by people who matter to me.

Heh, yeah. At some point. But play along with me for awhile, yeah? I like keeping people second guessing. Especially Squall.

[loudchickenwuss]

I wish I felt like that. So… I matter to you?

You want us to play it cool out in public then?

And we finally arrived at the village. Hang on.

[igneousdogtag]

If you didn't matter to me, would I be texting you while I'm out training? While out getting dinner? While in bed?

For now, yeah. I mean... do we even know what we are, if anything?

Hope you guys get situated soon. Let me know what happens.

[loudchickenwuss]

[There was a couple of hours of silence from Zell before a text finally comes in.]

This place is a mess. Everyone is terrified.

And I can play it cool. I’m great at playing it cool.

[igneousdogtag]

[Seifer would respond maybe 5 minutes after Zell sent his.]

Guess that means time to get to saving those people.

Are you, though? I mean you can be pretty loud. Not that I mind too much.

[loudchickenwuss]

Ya. I get to go hunting tonight. So wish me luck.

I’ll be quiet. I promise.

[igneousdogtag]

Try to be careful, would you? You kinda need to be in one piece to make it back. So good luck?

Alright we'll see how that pans out.

[loudchickenwuss]

I’ll make it back! You owe me a steak dinner and I’m not letting you get out of it!

I’ll be quiet!

Goodnight Seifer. Get some sleep!

[igneousdogtag]

Yeah I'm sure you're not since you're the one that sort of cancelled on me.

Good night. Just make sure you get your ass back here.

[loudchickenwuss]

I didn't cancel! I couldn't say no to Squall.

I will!

[Zell would be gone for three days. The text massages would come slower and slower and few and far between as he tried to trap and kill the creature that was killing the people of the village.

It was the third night when he finally succeeded except during the fight he got hurt. He received nasty claw marks and his right arm was badly burnt. It had been a hard fight.

There was no text messages from Zell after that.

It was during the fourth day when rumours started to spread through the Garden that Zell had succeeded with his mission but he had been badly hurt. So badly that he was in the hospital wing of the Garden.]
