[Having taken care of the coffin by tearing it apart, Vincent has wandered by the store for some supplies and now makes his way home. He's noticed Lucrecia being around the apartment more ever since it's started getting cold... and as a bodyguard, he has decided he must protect her from the elements. ...It makes logical sense in his mind, anyway. He also has to inform her to speak with Cloud, so has lots of excuses now to see her.]

[Yes, by his logic he still needs excuses even though he lives with her.]

[He heads inside the apartment...]

Lucrecia? ...Are you home?

[hur hur yes, she is home. huddled under blankets. in her bed. This cold business is not cool. But when she hears Vincent, she barely pokes her head out from under her massive pile of blankets.

Including some she took from his bed. Sorry Vincent.]

Y-yes?

[As if he would mind her doing that that. Ever. Lu can get away with things that no one else can.]

[He approaches, and looks to be... concerned.]

Are you all right?

It's cold. I don't like it.

[That is what he figured... and it has also come to realization why that might be the case. Vincent nods all seriously, and then reveals what he's brought home: more blankets.]

...Will these help?

[GRABBY HANDS *o*]

I-- yes, they would. [Pause. Oh yeah. :(] I took some of the blankets off of your own bed though, you should keep those for yourself.

I don't mind... but... thank you.

[Vincent is glad that nothing actually seems to be wrong with her, aside from the coldness. He was wondering... And now he crosses closer to her so that he can give her the blankets and replace the others with those. He made sure to get her especially warm ones.]

Is that better?

[You are the hero, Vincent. Lu will gladly take the blankets, but she's going to sit up and move some to put one of them around Vincent's shoulders.]

So you don't get cold either. And yes it is, thank you. ♥

I... Thank you...

[Lucrecia why must you be so adorable...]

There is also something I wanted to ask.

[BIG SMILE.] You're welcome, Vincent.

...? Hm? What is it?

[Hold on a moment that smile has distracted him.]

[...right, where were we?]

...Do you remember any research you did about the Ancients?

[Lucrecia - 1, Vincent - 0. She's good at making his brain stop.]

A little, yes. Why?

[She is extremely good at it. ...The power is hers!]

Then perhaps you could answer questions about them for someone?

I could try, yes. Who is it?

Cloud. I believe you may have spoken before?

Oh, yes, I know Cloud. I've been doing other research for him, actually. I'll get a message to him as soon as possible, then.

Good. I believe his questions mainly concern another companion here, Aerith. She is... the last Cetra.

[PINGED.]

...really?

Yes... ShinRa took great interest in her because of that. She was among the same group as Cloud when they... found my location. [In that coffin. :|]

I can imagine.

...Found your location?

...When I was in the coffin.

[FROWN.] Oh.

[Sigh. The subject of the coffin will never be a pleasant one for her it would seem...]

Their intrusion upon my nightmares returned me to the world of the living.

[MAN YOU SLEPT IN A COFFIN FOR 30 YEARS, WHAT ELSE IS SUPPOSED TO BE FOR HER WHEN THE SUBJECT COMES UP, A WALK IN THE PARK? :| le sigh.]

You make it sound like it was a horrible thing to do to you.

[It was a horrible thing to be woken initially, but Vincent has learned over time that it wasn't. He just can't help but phrase things the way he does.]

I didn't mean it in that way...

Then why use the word "intrusion"?
