[Serah Farron - 003 Video/Action] Some chapters are happier than others (Olivine)

[chasingstorms]

[Private Video - Lacus]
Hey, sorry it's been a while. Things got really crazy for a bit there. I wanted to tell you about Snow though, he evolved!

[She turns the feed to focus on an Espeon as way of explanation, Lacus might notice that he's more or less curled around what could only be two eevee eggs.]

I haven't talked to you in a while so I just wanted to make sure you were okay after everything that happened.

[Video - Unfiltered]

I guess I shouldn't be too surprised, after all it seems to happen pretty often, but we've got eggs!

[She's seriously happy about this, because as far as she's concerned this is all so amazing. Snow's going to have babies! It's nice to have some good news for once after...everything that's happened lately]

I can't wait for them to hatch, so I can meet them.

[There's a quiet 'hmph' in the background, and the camera shifts to show Lightning, still on her bed, with an Absol in her lap. After all that's happened? ...yeah she's grumpy and the eggs didn't help matters much.]

You know we can't keep them, Serah. It'll be easier to just give them away now, before you get attached.

[The feed doesn't change angles as Serah answers her older sister.]

Of course I'm going to keep them. I can't give Snow's kids away. Look at him!

[The feed does change then, to show an Espeon who's curled up near two eggs protectively.]

We can't separate them, Lightning! We just can't!

And what do you intend to do with two Eevees? It's not like we've got the room to keep them, and your team is already full. Will you just start not paying attention to the others?

[Grumpy, cranky...just noticing the gear is still on and she makes a "tch" sound.]

Turn that off. We're not having this conversation for everyone to hear.

[And so without any further comment from Serah, the feed goes dark. Sorry everyone! Responses might be Serah, Lightning, or both depending.]

Comments

[video] Assume this is after her talk with Lightning?

[chasingstorms]

You can say that again.

[Serah sighs.]

It's hard sometimes, I'm an adult, and I can make my own decisions. Back on Pulse I was a teacher even! Here it's like I'm back to just being Lightning's little sister again.

[It's a topic they've talked about before after all.]

[video] You got it o7

[Ven can't help but sympathize there. When Aqua came back here, despite being thrown by his age, she still wanted to treat him like a kid]

It's definitely frustrating, sort of like they're not ready for you to be grown up yet. Maybe Light'll just has to see some things for herself to understand.

[chasingstorms]

[She's heard a little about that, that's why she knows this is something Ven will understand.]

It's hard to prove it, if she never gives me a chance. [She sighs. Honestly, Serah doesn't like fighting with her sister like this.] I don't want to have to fight her for every chance to prove myself.

[ex_aeroga402]

[He sure does. They've got that common point in spades]

That drove me bonkers back home, I wasn't even allowed to go out like Terra and Aqua could. The only way I could prove myself at all was just going ahead and acting - if I waited for permission they would've just told me to go back home.

...Actually, they did try that a few times over.

[chasingstorms]

Guess we'll both have to keep fighting until we've made our point then.

[Because giving up isn't an option.]

[ex_aeroga402]

Yeah. We can do it if we just keep trying.

[Just have to believe!]
