Cloud!

This place is weird boring, and Cid said you're emoing running around here somewhere.

Got any suggestions for fun things I can get up to?

And if you say 'stay out of trouble', I'm hunting you down, and then you'll be in trouble.

Is that a threat, Kisaragi?

Welcome back, anyway. As for fun things, exploring at night can be fun depending on what one runs into. You would be wise to get some weapons, unless you plan on doing some running.

Were you sick in bed the last couple of days?

...same old Yuffie. You cannot steal my materia here, you know. I do not actually possess any... and I am lacking in funds as well.

There are items in the Rec shed, though nothing like a giant shuriken. I only can help a little. I ripped two from my... well, I pulled two shurikens last night. If you want them, you can have them.

Against Sephiroth?

Because everytime you show up, I have to check my pockets. Er... I think the staff did. I hear there is a patient possession room here, but I have not been able to find it yet.

I think you will go there in fourth shift. It has all the supplies for team sports. I... well, I had them thrown at me. I caught them... sort of. They are shuriken, little ones... I cannot say I am completely familiar with Wutainese styles of weapondry.

The what? Are those Jenova-monsters or something?

You know I am not one to point my finger in accusation. It is probably on the second floor, since I have explored the first one.

It did involve me ripping it out of my own flesh, yes. I cleaned them though. Okay, so I have two hira-shurikens for you then.

What? Why would ShinRa lock up secret weapons under Midgar? Not to keep them safe, I hope.

Last thing I remember was being blown up and dying.

[identity profile] 1mperturbable.livejournal.com 2008-06-26 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I am sure it is, Yuffie. You always could justify anything. Hmmm, no I never made up a map. There are only a few hallways up on the second floor, and I will be going up there tonight.

...what? I saved them for you, did I not? I bandaged them and that seemed good enough to me. They do not hurt all that much.

That sounds like something Hojo would come up with. I wish I had been there to see it. Hey, how old are you, Yuffie?

No... Sephiroth and Kadaj were gone. I was shot in the back and blown up my Loz and Yazoo with... my materia.

If you would like to meet up, that is fine by me. It might be better in larger numbers.

I will try. Sorry if I was a little busy dodging his fireball and how well he stabbed me. I can give them to you when night comes.

Reeve does not seem the type of person to sit by and let a company do that, so it seems likely he never knew. Eh... what is under all those scribbles? I see the word 'dropped' and 'mako'.

So, you are a year ahead of my time. That is a strange feeling, being able to look at the future... you.

[identity profile] 1mperturbable.livejournal.com 2008-06-26 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
...thanks, as usual. Even if you know how to fight, it can be tough. A lot of demonic animals or sometimes they brainwash other patients. You will find that your abilities diminished here, and you will have trouble doing things. They have weakened us all... unless you are brainwashed, then it appears they let you have everything back and you beat up other patients. Not sure if they kill them though.

...you do not have to remind me. He was very strong.

I cannot say that I am surprised by that, considering what is at the Nibelheim reactor. They must have been trying to complete the research there.

...I guess that is why I am here in this institute, now is it not?

I do not know, but I know everyone complains about the loss of strengths they had. As for Hojo, I have not seen him around. Violence during the day is severely frowned upon; I would not advise it unless absolutely necessary.

I do not have a proper sword to fight with. I simply do the best I can.

Never heard of Omega Weapon, but it sounds like a materia. Perhaps they hoped an aspect of the Lifestream would enter into someone's body and condense into a materia?

Cid has been here larger than I have. In some ways, I am certain I deserve to be here. I will do my best to get you guys out though.

[identity profile] 1mperturbable.livejournal.com 2008-06-26 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah... if you become violent with a nurse or another patient, you will be sedated and put in your room. Be careful not to get to that point.

Two short-swords, a baseball bat with screws in it, a garden claw, medical supplies, a bag to carry it all in... you know, common stuff.

I was not aware Vincent was keeping materia in his chest. Sounds suspiciously like Hojo though.

As long as you guys get out, it is fine. I am not rotting... I can take care of myself.

[identity profile] 1mperturbable.livejournal.com 2008-06-27 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
Did he hit you or something?

Everything 'normal' is provided to us during the day. I really only prepare myself for what happens when the lights go out. It means I can fight, so it helps yes.

That is not really making any sense. I am certain it would make more sense if I was alive to be there.

...name calling already. Real mature, Yuffie.

[identity profile] 1mperturbable.livejournal.com 2008-06-27 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
Well, if he did not actually get violent or scream loudly at you, I doubt a nurse would get involved. Fists would have to be exchanged for that... and they usually tell you to stop first.

I... well, I made one and the other was forged for me. I mean that I cannot even do a fraction of the things I used to. I am still strong, but nothing like before... it is as if my mako enhancements have gone away for the most part. But I heal very quickly.

Wait, so I am alive in the future but dead in the past... or present for me? So... Aerith really did send me back....

Uh... it is like camping with you sometimes.

[identity profile] 1mperturbable.livejournal.com 2008-06-27 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
...I do not think I know him. If you do not like him, I would just stay away from him. There are plenty of patients to interact with.

No idea. You will find out when put to the test. That is how I figured out that things were different. Try to do something you normally could do and see if it is different.

Ah... so I was meant to come back to life then. I remember... er it does not matter. I wish to be out of this place.

...like I could ever insult th Great Ninja Yuffie.

[identity profile] 1mperturbable.livejournal.com 2008-06-27 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
Are you really going for revenge on the first person you meet?

That would be wise. You will have to let me know how it goes, as it would be useful to know everyone's limitations in this place.

Apparently the basement is the place to go in an attempt to get out. I have not been there myself yet.

...I am sure you will make an attempt, nothing more.

As far as I can tell, I am the best equipt out of our group. Usually we share my weapons when together, but I do make use of them when alone. We work together when we can... but last night I was on my own.

No, I have not. It is usually difficult to access and guarded by other patients or monsters, as far as I can tell. You crowned Queen of Wutai yet?

You can think what you like of it.

[identity profile] 1mperturbable.livejournal.com 2008-06-27 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, and I think I saw him and Rude together last night. Sort of allied... we are not enemies but it is not as if we have the warm-fuzzies either.

Alright. Would you rather it sooner then later or meet and greet others first? I have no plans at lunch time, but if you have some, that is fine as well.

Godo may never hand it over, if you keep yourself too busy. He would have to actually like someone too, since you would have to get married to 'continue the line'. That is almost a humorous thought. Thanks for making me smile, Yuffie.

You know my memory. I do not trust it and you should not either.

[identity profile] 1mperturbable.livejournal.com 2008-06-27 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
...yeah, yeah I did.

Well, if you see me at lunch, feel free to mosey over. I do not mind the company... the last Yuffie tackled me when she saw me, but let us not make that a trend, alright?

Ah, so his opinion on the matter does not come into play for you? Interesting... I am certain he will relish anyone you decide is worth your time.

...sometimes, I really wonder why I do this.

Patient's Possession can be found in the easternmost hallway, last door on the right.

Don't expect to find anything of use, however. Items there are items Landel has placed that our fake selves would have carried with them. Standard t-shirts, a few toys or books. No weapons or anything else worthwhile.

[identity profile] whiteychan.livejournal.com 2008-06-26 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, I mean exactly that. The possesions belonging to the 'somebody else' they would have you believe you are is what you will find there.

Your Cloud friend is fairly accurate. I don't know what you're talking about in regards to Mako or materia, but the references he said of us coming from different worlds is quite true. We may also come from different times.

I'm guessing you're not from Earth around the year 2000, are you?

[identity profile] whiteychan.livejournal.com 2008-06-27 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
From earth in a manner of speaking. It's a long story, and difficult to explain.

My best advice is to not try and think too deeply on the ramifications of this knowledge. Just understand that things you say may make little to no sense to others, paricularly when you talk about locations, people, or any special powers you might have, just as if I were to reference 'Japan,' the 'Gotei 13,' or 'bankai' none of this would make any sense to you. Once we've escaped this place, then we can spend time thinking about just where we are and what we can do about it.

Not quite. I'm just dead, and inhabit Rukongai, the world of the spirits.

There are many small factions who do not advertise themselves nor actively seek new members. These factions may assist one another from time to time but, for the most part, are self-sustaining. Sometimes they will spread information to the boards here to help everyone, but often such information gets held as a bartering tool.

There is a fairly stable organization dedicated to the tending of injuries called the St. Francis Aid Club. Tamaki is the leader of this organization if you feel your skills are suited towards the healing arts.

Outside of that, you have three large groups that are dedicated to the common good. While each is autonomous, we do work together and share information equally. You have the Arts and Crafts division, which is the largest but only by small margin lately, and is led by myself, Hitsugaya Toshiro. You have the History Club, led by Homura. And you have the Cooking Division, led by Colonel Roy Mustang. Each has slightly different goals, but as I mentioned before we all work together for the common good.

[identity profile] whiteychan.livejournal.com 2008-06-27 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
It sounds very different. Where I come from, spirits maintain their identity after death. It's like normal life, only the majority of souls don't need to eat to stay alive and the aging process is significantly reduced. I died shortly after I was born, and am now over 100 years old but don't look older than 13.

It would depend on the group and depend on what you were looking for in return. Arts and Crafts is generally free with information. We often post maps on the boards for others to make copies of. If you're looking for weapons, we can't supply forged weapons, but I have some scalpels available for others who need them.

Aside from the History Club, the other two organizations are relatively accepting of members who wish to work only when they have no other plans. If you wish to assist us one night, you are not obligated to work with us the next. Your only expectations are that you follow the orders of your team lead when you are working with us, and that you protect your teammates to the best of your ability. If you wish to work as a team with your friends but only want to offer your help, I can give you as a group an assignment.

Does that answer your questions?
