Summary
He doesn’t look entirely the same, but there’s no mistaking the identity of the man crouched near the fishing boats. He’s wearing a beanie, but it doesn’t manage to conceal the bottom half of the scar that carves out an identifying, diagonal path across the center of his face. He’s swapped out his slacks for a low slung pair of sweatpants that have clearly seen better days and has foregone his old trench coat in favor of a new, slightly shorter sleeveless one.
It’s different to see him like this, masquerading around like he’s just another regular person. Because Squall knows more than anyone — intimately — how much that isn’t true.

Summary
Goku sees something whip by in his peripherals right as he goes to take his first bite and freezes mid-movement. Okay, what. Fuck this, seriously.
“Hello?” he asks, eyes flickering about the room.
There’s no response, save for the distant rumbling of another bang of thunder outside.

Summary
They’ve all had problems sleeping in the aftermath of things. It’s no surprise, really, Terra thinks; all things considered, it would probably have been more strange if they hadn’t walked away with some sort of disturbance. The three of them had been through unimaginable, unprecedented hardship and they’d each gone it all alone.

Summary
“It’s alright. Are you okay?” he asks. Sora pulled something similar during the nights leading up to their exam, finding himself sprawled across Riku’s bed so often talking his ear off into the late hours of the night that he began to wonder why they even bothered having separate rooms to begin with when it usually led to Sora falling asleep mid-conversation.
Sora stands up abruptly, stuffing his hands into his pockets and Riku can’t help but wonder why he sat down in the first place.
“Yeah, I’m fine. I have something I wanna give to you before we set off tomorrow, that’s all,” Sora explains, adding, “but it’s a surprise, so you can’t look!” Riku shoots him a look that screams a teasing ‘really? ’ which serves its purpose in riling Sora up. “C’mon, Riku! Play along!”

Summary
It’s a distant look, one Squall’s seen on his own features too many times since, but never once on Seifer’s, in all the years they’ve known each other. It makes him want to reach out and snuff the angry life out of the many demons lingering in the background of his heart that’re now suddenly threatening to burst out and take hold of him first.
But Squall has never been good at comfort, has never had the right words to say when it comes to people and their feelings, has never been able to placate the deeply ingrained distress that gnaws inside his own chest or the aching tension left behind by years of emotional suppression and denial that settles like an anchor along his temples.
