Summary
“Could you find out what’s going on with Cloud?” Tifa asked.
And he owed her at least that much, after everything she'd done for him. So Barret agreed... but he hadn't anticipated Cloud being so distant.
He hadn't anticipated a lot of things.

Summary
“You sound like a mortal.” She said, with the faint glimmer of amusement in her eyes. Zagreus chortled too, but then fell silent. Nyx gave him a knowing look. “What is it, my child?”
“You said the curse is tied into my godhood, right? What if…” The words tasted unnatural in his mouth, a blasphemy before they could even take shape in the air. Zagreus coughed them out regardless. “What if I could shed my divinity? What if I became a mortal?”

Summary
Before the young god-prince learns of his mother and plots his escape, Zagreus wishes for a bit of earth to plot a garden.
The prince consults Achilles, of all souls, about the act of growing things. Asks for Achilles to describe to him the plants and flowers and trees of the surface world, from the shape of their leaves to their texture and smell. Asks how deep the roots of trees go, what it is like to sit beneath their shade, and listens raptly to all Achilles says of the worms and beetles who live in the dirt.
“I’m afraid I rather took it all for granted.” Achilles admits, ashamed, one day-or-night as Zagreus sits cross-legged on the floor of his chambers patiently while Achilles tries, and fails, to draw a passable image of an olive tree on a sheet of parchment.

Summary
“Your squad-mates sure now how to crash a—” date “—party,” Zack says.
Cloud sighs, “Yeah.”
Vaguely, Zack is aware of noise behind him, cracking the night air like fragile glass. But he can’t pay attention to that, not when it’s happening again; Zack’s chest swelling with suppressed feelings. With love and adoration, so deep its almost painful, doubly so when Cloud is before him, vulnerable and uncertain. Questioning himself. Zack wants to rip himself apart at the seams rather than keep all this locked up inside his heart. Zack has to tell him. Sooner or later, he’s just going to blurt it out at the worst moment, spill his secret in a way that embarrasses Cloud, mortifies them both something terrible and awful.
“Cloud—” Zack starts, cutting off when Cloud’s eyes widen, jerking out of Zack’s gentle hold.Alternatively: Five (5) times Zack almost confesses, and the one (1) time Cloud accidentally does.
