Summary
Clive had left the Hideaway a month ago sniping about Cid's stupid little shortcuts, and he had returned to a broken encampment on the edge of survival with Cid's power in his hands, a poor substitute for the Dominant of Ramuh.
"What the hell are you going to do?" Otto demanded.
"This world isn't perfect," Clive said. Life's too short for perfect plans, a voice whispered in his ear. The memory was tinged with humour, with the confidence of a man always knew how to find another way, and with heartache, too. Clive stood, full of uncertainty, and sheathed his sword. "I'm going to find you a way."

Or: Clive becomes what he must.

Summary
"Are you awake?" says the voice.
Part of him wants to ignore it. He's comfortable, so comfortable, despite how much he aches. Clive's used to aching. He's not used to having hands on his skin that don't want to hurt or be hurt, and he doesn't want them to leave.
