If you want to see me happy... then you should continue to enjoy yourself for as long as you can. That will surely make me the happiest.

[forthelight]

Of course.

[ The Warrior gives his friend a nod before he comes to pause while looking to the sleeping babes between them. ]

You will be going to the festival then?

[innermonologues]

With or without Sora's encouragement... I was planning on going.

[forthelight]

Then I am sure that I will see you there. If even alone, I thought it might be nice to see the flowers.

[innermonologues]

Last year was my first time going to the festival... I went alone myself but it was actually not terrible...

[forthelight]

So you are reassuring me that it will not be terrible for me then, correct?

[innermonologues]

Pretty much. Trust me, the cats will want you to come out and enjoy the festivities.

[forthelight]

Surely I can't disappoint them, can I?

[innermonologues]

[ Squall gently lifts up the kitten with the round belly and wiggles its tiny paw at Warrior. ]

No. You don't want to disappoint me. It will shatter my whole outlook on life.

[forthelight]

[ Squall is... making the kitten speak? Yes, it surely looks like that, to which the Warrior tilts his head a little before he reaches out to scritch under their chin. ]

Ah, this entire time I did not know you were able to speak. I see you only do so around Squall, hm?

[innermonologues]

[ paw waggle. ]

Because he promised to go to the festival.

[forthelight]

Then I suppose I shall have to go, won't I?

[ A pause and then the Warrior glances down. ]

Is there a dress code for this?

[innermonologues]

Mmm... I don't think so? Unlike that weird masquerade party thing, here you can wear whatever. Sora's kind of roped me into wearing a Yukata.

[forthelight]

Weird masquerade party thing?

[ He must have missed this as he doesn't seem to recall such a thing. ]

I suppose I will do my best to find something... a little better.

[ Since, well, the Warrior is just dressed in a simple black shirt and pants... yep. ]

[innermonologues]

[ he nods his head with a head tilt. ]

You could always ask Sora to dress you up. He's usually pretty good about that... when it doesn't count suits.

[forthelight]

Is he not good at picking suits?

[innermonologues]

They're good if you like suits with stupid designs on them.

[forthelight]

What's a stupid design?

[innermonologues]

This suit has reindeer on it to celebrate some dumb holiday.

[forthelight]

Then I shall make sure to steer clear of reindeer.

[ He offers a nod with a smile. ]

[innermonologues]

Maybe he can find you a Yukata with cats.

[forthelight]

This festival... it is one for feelings of love, correct? And that is why couples attend together? With matching clothes?

[ Like you and Sora, Squall? ]

[innermonologues]

Ah... something like that I guess? I just want to go because of the flowers though...

[forthelight]

[ A nod, the Warrior glances down to the floor. ]

Then I shall do the same.

[innermonologues]

[ Squall gently sets the sleepy kitten down finally and gives Warrior a concerned stare. ]

Hey... are you okay?
