Alright, it's a deal. [Bumps her with his shoulder]

[asphodels]

Great. [ Then it's a plan! She can get him to help pick some for Zack, too, she thinks, maybe. Secretly. ] But nothing until we do the ferris wheel.

[moseyin]

Is that one up after this? No roller coaster? [......actually now that he thinks about it, the last time they were on a date he didn't remember having motion sickness.....]

[asphodels]

We can do those, too! But we can't leave until we've been on the ferris wheel.

[moseyin]

[meh he'll probably be fine] Right. Saving the best for last. Too bad there aren't any fireworks.

[asphodels]

Yeah. [ That wound just be perfect but, at the same time... She doesn't want this date to be the same as the last one. She wants it to be just as memorable, but different, because it's with the real Cloud. ] But this is good, even with no fireworks.

[moseyin]

Yeah? Junon carousel with teen magazine date questions is good? [He's enjoying himself too don't be fooled, even if she's soooo so wrong about the Turks]

[asphodels]

Yup. [ Aerith grins, leaning up to watch him. ] It's what I always wanted, after all. To learn more about you.

[moseyin]

...easy girl to please, [Cloud mumbles, looking away as his cheeks go pink.]

[asphodels]

[ So cute!! She leans up, staring at his cheeks. ]

Isn't that a good thing?

[moseyin]

For me, yeah. I worry about you though... [what if you settle for something less than the best]

[asphodels]

Why worry about me? [ She's frowning, now. ]

[moseyin]

I'm usually worrying about you. [but hey, ride's stopped, let's get off]

[asphodels]

What? [ She moves to get off, shaking her head. ] You don't have to worry about me, silly.

[moseyin]

[Follows her down, though he'd kind of wanted to do something cool like get down first and hold out a hand for her or something...next time, next time.] With as headstrong as you are? It's inevitable.

[asphodels]

I'm a big girl, you know. [ Like she didn't ask him to be her bodyguard, but, whatever. ] But it's okay. You can worry a little bit.

[moseyin]

That's awful gracious of you. [u lil shit]

[asphodels]

Only a little bit! [ :) ] I'll get mad it it's a lot.

[moseyin]

I'll try to tone it down, ma'am. [Ok let's give that roller coaster a shot]

[asphodels]

Thank you, sir. [ And, look! She's holding his hand again! ] Which one first?

[moseyin]

[Oh well that's nice : )] Okay, so, something else about me you might not know... I uh, I get motion sick sometimes. And claustrophobic.

...but I still wanna try that roller coaster.

[asphodels]

[ BRO. Blinking, she stares up at him before she nods her head. ]

Okay, we'll go on one that's not in a small box, right? And I can hold your hand.

[moseyin]

[aerith

cloud and this universe both do not deserve you]

Sounds good. It should be fine, usually I can tell when it's gonna be bad. [And then sometimes not. So lets get on this roller coaster! Three cheers for impulsive decision making]

[asphodels]

You should tell me if it happens. [ But this one doesn't seem too bad... ] And don't let go of me, okay.

[moseyin]

I still got you. [He's going to take that as a standing rule for this date; no letting go.

He was fine on the roller coasters at Gold Saucer, but he hadn't ridden any of them since remembering his past so...yeah, he's nervous. The attendants come by to check their harnesses (which is kind of laughable, he'd be able to get out and he'd be fine even if he fell) and it's those big ones that come down over the chest and just lock you in, so he doesn't quite like that. But that's the price he has to pay to have an open-air coaster, apparently.

He still squeezes Aerith's hand a little bit.] We should take a picture of ourselves in the middle of the ride, [he suggests, to distract himself. That might be cool.]
