[ Squall lets out a soft sound to the light jab and lets out a huff. ]
Are you sure... it wouldn't be a bother?

.....
I don't know.
No matter how many times I go through this, it never gets easier.

[By now, Terra has steered them halfway back to Squall's place. The movement is still slow and easy, giving them less wind to talk over and more view to take in.]
Somehow, I can feel in my heart it's the right thing to do. Maybe the light lead me here for a reason. To... have more chances. And if helping you is one, I'll take it.
[When they arrive back where they started, Terra lowers the glider straight down until it's hovering a few inches off the ground like it had been when he showed up initially. He looks back over his shoulder, though, at Squall.]
Whenever you're ready to try.

[He vaguely knows what they're doing so Sora doesn't really notice the sounds of Squall getting the package ready. He shrugs.]
Maybe you were able to have your own style because of him, though. [Sora smiles a bit.] You really like gunblades, though. They're great. I like them too!

Fine... but don't be too disappointed if I'm not good enough.
[ Among being a realist, Squall's way of thinking was usually more pessimistic when it came to himself. Still, Terra was willing to try, even if he didn't know what might come of Squall training with him.]

If you ever wanted to try it out, I do still have my revolver here.
[ While his new shiny Gunblade takes his favorite spot, his Revolver Gunblade hangs up on the wall right above where the head of the bed was. Almost like it was on display. ]
I kind of want to see if you could handle it actually.
[ He lets out a soft laughter, which happened at a good time, because it drowned out the tiny click of the piercing device. Squall thinks he's ready to give Sora the first one, but he wanted to make sure he was good and distracted. ]

[Sora tilts his head a bit. He ponders that note with a small shrug.]
It can't be much different than using a keyblade to aim magic, I guess. But I'm not sure I'd be that good at it. You know, Lightning uses gunblades too, huh?

I'm pretty sure the fact that I share a weapon with her is the only thing that kept her from completely writing me off as some kind of brat when I first appeared. She got on my case for my attitude a lot.
[ But then again who didn't. No one wants all of Veren's to turn into a winter wonderland, right?
Squall very lightly touches Sora's earlobe just to test how distracted he was. ]
Hers is a little different from mine though. I think it's more advanced.

[That has Sora laughing which makes him shift a little. His hair brushing Squall's fingertips just lightly near his ear.]
You're not nearly as much of a brat as you used to be. So points there...
[Hummmm.....!]

[ WOW RUDE?? But he couldn't really argue that fact. Even he realizes that he was extremely terrible back when he first came. He's honestly surprised anyone ever gave him a chance. ]
I think I have you to thank for that. If it wasn't for you, I'd probably still be by myself, telling people they're better off talking to walls.
[ Squall slips the device where it needs to be and just as he clicks it to pierce Sora's ear, Squall leans over to kiss Sora's keep from the other side. ]

Hm---?
[There's something on his ear-- And then there's Squall kissing his cheek----
Boy. You have about half of a second to DO THIS.]

Ahhh!!
[It's sharp and there's a snap of pain?! He nearly swings wildly at Squall but his fingers instead dig and grip at Squall's thigh instead.]
Ow?!!
[ ... But- It's done. ... And it wasn't so bad.]

[ Squall snorts loudly and one of his arms wraps tightly around Sora's waist to keep him from trying to run off. He does happen to wince a little, but it was worth it to see Sora's face right now.]
That wasn't so bad.
That wasn't so bad.
[His ear feels like it's burning a little and he can feel the light weight of the new crown-shaped earring in his lobe. He reaches a hand up and sort of wants to touch it? He touches at his hair gently.]
Ahh... Because you tricked me. [Sora frowns a little but he cuddles against Squall gratefully. Now he can have an earring just like Squall does.]
Does it look okay...?

[ He may have tricked Sora, but it worked, didn't it? The way he cuddles so close to him makes Squall smile though. Dropping the piercer onto the bed, Squall wraps both of his arms around Sora and pulls him in close. ]
You know what? I think it looks pretty cool.
You know what? I think it looks pretty cool.
[That makes Sora smile when Squall says so and curls around him so securely. The weight of Squall's arms around him feel so good. It always has.]
Thanks, Squall. I guess it wasn't so bad.
Thanks, Squall. I guess it wasn't so bad.
[ Squall couldn't help it. Whenever Sora was this close to him he just wanted to hold on tight regardless. Feeling his warmth, hearing his loving voice, Squall could soak all of this in and still not have enough. ]
I'm just kind of happy you let me.
I'm just kind of happy you let me.
[Sora laughs softly. He holds onto Squall and gives his arm a squeeze. Got to make sure he gets his daily cuddle session in.]
Kind of happy I let you stab me with a needle tool? Geeze.
Kind of happy I let you stab me with a needle tool? Geeze.
[ Squall laughs loudly at that, burying his face into Sora's soft hair to hide it. Sora was such a brat sometimes!!]
What was that? You wanted a couple more piercings in that ear?
What was that? You wanted a couple more piercings in that ear?
[WHAT ITS TRUE]
I think one is more than enough for me today!!
I think one is more than enough for me today!!
[ Squall snorts again, still nuzzling his face in Sora's hair for a little while longer. ]
You were pretty brave you know. You didn't even elbow me in the face like I thought you might.

I thought about it.
[Sora laughs in return. He was so close to fighting Squall but in the end, Squall knows him too well and tricked him into getting it down. Pretty great work, honestly.]
It hurts a little but it should heal up quickly, right?

Yeah. It might feel a little sore for a few days, but you'll hardly even notice it once it heals up. I'd give it some weeks before you try removing it though.
[ He's pretty sure Sora wouldn't want to have to redo getting it pierced. Sora might purposely elbow him then. ]

Come on, Squall. I thought you were stronger than that.
[Someone showed him a good attitude back at the carnival games, and not with only one of them either. So Squall gets A Look as he's twisted a bit back.]
If you want a heart that can wield a keyblade, you can't think that way. You have to believe you'll be able to do anything. You have to feel it. You said you have a Gunblade, right? And training for SeeD.
If you can accomplish those... no dream is out of your reach.

I know that feeling... I'm sure it's different when it's someone you know from home leaving, but... I've made friends here and they all seem to leave and it sucks every time.
