[Okay, so he should really go with first impressions, shouldn't he?]
We just talked...and I got skittish. [He's being completely honest here, he just. Really wanted to know what Hojo did to him. And if it can affect other people, okay?] So I left.
[Killing Zack would be counterproductive and probably not teach him anything. He will, however, ream him out, gently maim him, and tell Angeal on him, most likely.]
You are an idiot, Zackary Fair. If you need a scientist, you ask Rubedo, Vincent, or I who the relatively trustworthy ones are. [He sounds really pissed off, Zack.]
[Angeal's going to be mad...but Sephiroth already is. He thinks the lesser evil, and a slightly shorter lecture awaits him at the last homely home.] Do you mind if I stop by?
[Oh, he gets that. But he'd rather deal with them one at a time. And he doesn't want Angeal to be mad at him while Sephiroth is mad at him. That's just a bad combination.]
[In it - Meats, treats for the dragon, alcohol, some spices, a black and silver scarf, and playing cards. Yes, the playing cards are a hint Seph, honest. There's also another set of Go cards and Uno cards for him and Ulquiorra]
Do you remember that event where we got sucked into everyone elses dreams?
You said something to me there, and I've been thinking about it. I understand why you'd think that way and, well...I don't mind if you call me Nigredo.
To be honest, it stopped being about safety a long time ago for me. Nigredo couldn't thrive in the world that he had to be in, so Gaignun had to be created. Then I just got used to being him. I'm not two different people, but it feels that way sometimes.
But I am still Nigredo under it all.
[Ok so maybe he's being a bit of an emotional coward by doing this all in text, but baby steps, right?]
[There's a pause. It's one thing to hear it from Riku (who he trusted anyway) and another to hear it echoed. But he nodded even if Sephiroth couldn't see it.]
I wanted to know if it'd be alright to come over and talk. I'd rather not discuss things over the phone. It's nothing bad, it's more like..revisiting an old topic you could say.
