You'll Always Be A Memory
WHO: Cloud Strife + You
WHERE: A room that's part office and part bedroom
WHAT: Calibration. Cloud has been in his own mind before to find his true self. This time it's different.
WHEN: During the event
WARNINGS: Sephiroth gets his own warning enter at your own risk (if you don't want any of scenes don't touch the black feather), cross-dressing, blood, alcohol, death, fire. (side note: you can touch the Buster Sword multiple times for different scenes if you want to avoid death scenes with it please state so)
The room is divided in a split, both rooms look simple and run down. The left side of the room is an tiny office space. A desk that doesn't have a lot clatter with a lone chair behind it. As if it was used rarely, there's an old style cord phone on the desk. A tiny vase with a yellow flower in it. A glass with red liquid partially filled on top of what would seem like bills. There's a dart board on the wall, right next to it is a calendar with scribbled notes. A window to look out of for the view of Edge.
The right side of the room is the bedroom. There's a dresser along the wall that has several objects upon it. A pair of long golden earrings carefully land on upon a folded up dress that appears to be black and blue. In the middle of the dresser is a infantryman helmet as if it was trying to be a center piece for something. Right at the edge of the dresser is a black feather threatening to topple off of it and flitter towards the ground. The object leaning on the dresser closer to the door is the Buster Sword.
There's a bed in the room under another window. This window appearing to be raining outside with dark clouds.
Cloud is leaning against the wall at the back right where the room splits down the middle. His arms are folded, his head is down as he stares at the floor. It's quiet, peaceful and boring.

Cloud's eyebrows lift up a little before settling back. He acts as if he might let go but he doesn't. "Do you see any tables? I have a desk with one chair and a bed. It's pretty clear that arm wrestling will get us no where. A very good idle thought, Cayde. Are you in a rush to leave?"
He lets go after that. "There's probably a few more items you didn't touch, right? I don't recall you touching the flower."
no subject
His hand finally released, Cayde shakes it out, giving his wrist a couple of rotations. "Probably," he concedes, taking a fresh glance about. "You are so very encouraging on the matter."
Up he hops, flipping his tattered cloak back before turning to look back towards the desk.
no subject
He stands up from the bed while looking at the Exo. His eyelids are lowered half way as if he's saddened. There's memories within flowers. He's not really sure where it might Cayde.
"I would rather you went for the flower and not the feather." Not an easy decision to pick and Cloud shifts his feet a bit knowing how hard that choice is.
no subject
That Cloud mentions as much about the feather only piques the Exo's curiosity, but as he glances back at the blond, he considers.
"I could do neither," he suggests. He knows he'd been given fairly free reign to poke at all the things in here but it still hasn't been lost on him that he's potentially tapping into things even Cloud isn't sure he'd like to revisit. It makes him wonder just how on guard he might be if someone poked around his own head.

The room goes bright in a blinding way. When it comes back up, they're in a garden overlooking a night sky. In the sky there's green streams of light, a silhouette of a house with a light on. It's incredibly way more darker due to the natural light. The other feeling Cayde may get is that it feels more like a dream. All in the garden has flowers that are yellow and white.
Cloud's not sure why they're here.
"You will be leaving soon."
It's a feeling since he remembers the last time he was here. "This feels more like a dream coming to end."
If Cayde has anything more to say to Cloud, this might be his only chance.

It's beautiful. Peaceful in a different way than the solitary room and the rain at the window. It's otherworldly too, the glow, the flora, reminiscent of planetscapes he's visited but at the same time, something else entirely.
He turns, facing Cloud. The words make him feel sad, somehow. It was a strange time, but...he'd enjoyed it. His optics narrow in the way one's eyes would with the crinkle of a smile.
"...so this is it, then." If he's going now, he wants to take this place in one last time, hoping that maybe all these experiences are things he can hang onto once the dreams have passed.
"Memories, experiences- the good comes with the bad, and vice-versa. We may not want all of 'em, may regret more than a few..." Cayde looks back at Cloud then, to meet his gaze. "But sometimes they're all the proof we have, of what we were, and of how we came to be. So you hold onto 'em. Hold onto 'em tight."
He brings up a hand in a two-fingered salute.
no subject
He closes the gap between them while looking right at the Exo with the glow of his eyes. "I'll always hold on to them more than you know. They helped me to remind myself who I am at one time. To relive them again is helpful in some ways."
It's the only words he could say to Cayde. "You live your life you wanna live." Cloud knows after saying that Cayde would be disappearing from the room. His time would be over here.
