Want to play with any of the above? Leave a comment with their name in the header and a prompt or a starter and I'll get back to you! ➝ AUs welcome! Otherwise, all characters are available from various canon points: OG, Advent Children or Remake. ➝ Some memes for ideas: caught in the rain, soulmates, body heat, otherworldly, deserted island, and of course random scenario. Feel free to make up your own! Hell, you can even just text them, they've all got phones. ➝ Other old muses (Cloud, Cid, Yuffie) in need of dusting off are tentatively available for tagging out later on!

[It comes to her so naturally that for half a moment, he almost forgets that she's acting— but this is her forte. He and Wedge have seen it a thousand times, although it's struck a certain weary chord in him that he's not sure Wedge has experienced. Still, it means they won't raise a single eyebrow, and he grins down at her before giving her shoulders a squeeze, slowing his walk into an easy stroll towards the platform.]

Don't underestimate me. I may not be a professional, but I might surprise you, sweetheart.

[kisskissboomboom]

Oh? You think so?

[ There's a hint of mischief in her grin that's not entirely feigned as she rests her chin on his shoulder. ]

You still hiding secrets for me to poke at, then?

[leafhouse]

There's a lot more to me than what you've seen the last couple of years, you know.

[Also not entirely feigned— and while he knows Jessie is well-aware of where he comes from and what he'd been up to before joining AVALANCHE, he's aware that he's set a bit of a precedent for himself. He's become known for being the Exasperated One when the situation calls for it.

He smiles easily as he begins to steer her closer to the platform, staying close as they walk, and as a result, they don't draw a single gaze on their way through. Nothing out of the ordinary, just another couple enjoying a night out.]

But, I'll cop to it, you do know a lot.

[AVALANCHE is his family, after all.]

[kisskissboomboom]

[ She hums, laughing, before leaning up to brush her lips against his ear, as if going in for a playful kiss. She lowers her voice but is still having fun teasing him, now that they have roles to play. Her breath whispers teasingly against his skin as she murmurs in his ear. ]

Oh yeah? I'm gonna have to get better at being investigative, then.

[leafhouse]

Yeah? I'd be interested to see that.

[His own voice is low, but not low enough to make either of them conspicuous. Not like they're saying anything that can't be safely overheard, anyway.

He can hear a whistle sounding from somewhere further down the track— their ride will be here soon, thankfully, and once they're actually onboard the train, he'll feel able to relax. Their IDs are solid, and once they're down in Sector Six, they'll have effectively vanished into the crowd.]

So, what do you think, once we get there? [He raises his voice just a little, blending in easily with other couples nearby who are discussing their own plans.] I could treat you to dinner, but there's definitely more exciting stuff to check out in Wall Market than just the food.

[kisskissboomboom]

[ She laughs at his subtle change of subject, still hanging onto his arm with eager excitement. ]

Oooh, you gonna show me a fun time, then? What would you like to go see?

[leafhouse]

Weeeell...

[He drags it out a bit longer than he has to, thoughtful.]

I hear there's a pretty good dance scene down there.

[In... a number of different ways, really.]

Could be a good opportunity to cut loose?

[kisskissboomboom]

Do you even know how to dance?

[ There's a hint of bemused skepticism in her voice as she pokes playfully at his chest. ]

[leafhouse]

[He huffs softly, feigning offense.]

Are you implying I'm uncoordinated?

[Rude, honestly.]

Of course I know how to dance.

[kisskissboomboom]

How do you know I wasn't just implying you're old?

[ She teases him instead, grinning impishly - and completely unrepentantly. ]

I don't know if I believe you. I think I require proof.

[leafhouse]

How much older than you do you think I am?

[Don't answer that. He laughs, steering her towards the train and releasing his hold on her shoulders just long enough for her to be able to step on board first.]

But you want proof, you'll have it when we get there.

[kisskissboomboom]

Oh, absolutely ancient...

[ She teases him with a laugh as she hops up onto the train and holds out a hand to tug him up after her. ]

Are you sure you won't like... I don't know, throw out your back or break a hip or something?

[leafhouse]

[He takes the offered hand, grabbing the side of the doorway with the other to hoist himself upwards to join her, smirking in reply.]

Sweet of you to be so worried about me, but trust me, I'll be just fine.

[Pfft. He'll show you, Jessie.]

And if I do, then I'll just tell Tifa it's your fault.

[She's the other Team Mom. She'll want to know.]
