005 - video

[Vanille's just resting between her Mamoswines tusks, as she records this video, nice and relaxed as the large creature sleeps.

She's totally safe. c: But she has thoughts. On her mind. And she just can't stop thinking...]

...How about we play a game, everybody! [A game. Right.] Let's say you had the power to bring anybody here. Anybody at all! And you two could stay here forever. Who would you pick, out of anybody from any world?
[A pause.]
Buuut... if you've gotten people you really want to be with you, I guess this isn't that fun. What if they didn't remember you? How would you deal with that?
[That's when the video ends... Vanille has reasons for this. She's just been pondering what might happen if she appears... she's got so many worries.]

[She knows, on some level, what Vanille is going through. To be stuck here for years without the most important person to you...it's hard. Her shoulders slump.]

There's nothing we can do to get her here sooner. We just have to wait. [As crappy as that is...] It helps if you keep busy. Don't think about her not being here.

...That's why I'm helping Lucy. But it isn't helping as much as I'd like. I can't help but think of Fang - it'd be like asking you to stop thinking of Serah!
[...wait bad example she just showed up whoops
But you know what she means!]

[She knows what Vanille means. She does indeed. Even with Serah right beside her, she knows. She sighs quietly.]

Try other things. Get a job when you get to Olivine. Train your team until you can't anymore. [Wear yourself out so bad you literally can't think. It works well at first, she'd say. But it doesn't. It only works until your body adjusts which may be fast for a Pulsian.] You'll figure something out.
