I didn't say that, I just said I don't feel different.

For instance! Your voice still sets my teeth on edge. If the Animus are taking things, I can understand why they'd leave me my feelings for you. Who would want them, eh?

[Voice]

[Eye brow raise. Oh, Horst, you idiot.]

Funny. Your voice doesn't bother me at all.

[Voice]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

[Horst doesn't even enjoy bantering today. wtf is up with him the Animus can't take that can they?]

How sweet.

[Voice]

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

[Oh yeah, Horst. What's the fun in talking to you if you don't snark back?]

You're off your game.

[Voice]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

[Annoyed sigh. He knows, dammit.]

How do you figure?

[Voice]

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

The surprising lack of intelligent responses, rare as they already are.

[Voice]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

[He can't even argue that, he sounds like a verdammt fool and he really just wants ... well he wants. Things. Everything. Huh.]

We could always step this up, then. A duel or whatever you wish to call it.

[Voice]

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

[And there you have it, Horst. See what happens when you actually think about things?]

I'm not fighting you unless I have to.

[Voice]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

[Silly Cloud, Horst isn't -thinking- about anything but your girl right now.]

Ah. I see. I'll give you fair warning, then: it will be very easy to give you reason to fight me.

[Voice]

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

[His girl will slap the crap out of you, Horst.]

Touch her and you will regret it.

[Voice]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

I don't need to touch her, Sie Hurensohn. All this started because I had to gall to send her a friendly message, remember?

[Voice]

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

If you think that's the reason than you're an even bigger idiot than I thought.

[Voice]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

You know what I like about you? You're more evasive than your girlfriend. Bitchier, too. I never had a sister but I imagine if I had, she'd be just like you. Although hopefully she'd learn to give a straight answer before the age of...twenty?

[Voice] Why do you think they'll together, Horst?

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

Sorry. I thought you were smart enough to read between the lines. Apparently, you are that big of an idiot.

[Voice]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Why should I have to 'read between the lines', Cloud? You were straining so hard to read into my message to Rei, and look where it's got us.

[Not that he minds. Usually it's really funny, and he really does just banter with you for fun.]

If you'd simply say what you mean, especially to someone you'd never met before, maybe you wouldn't have me daydreaming about Rei or pulling your head off to suck your corpse dry.

By the way, I was never actually interested in her before I met you. Now? Nn.

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

[Okay, that second part? You are a sick, sick man, Horst. He's not even sure he wants to banter with you ever. again.]

You wouldn't like my blood anyway, you idiotic....

[Wait.

Wait.]

[Voice]

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

[And then.... all of the pieces began to slide into place.]

It's the event. You are affected.

[Voice]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

[Don't take away the banter! He's told that same thing to his brother, it's nothing personal.]

Don't be ridiculous. We've been like this since before the event. Just because I'm 'off my game' doesn't mean it's related to the Animus--have you noticed all the people stripping around the city? That's the Animus.

[He frowns and exhales sharply] Oh goddammit. [you're right. Enjoy it while you can.]

[Voice]

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

[Well, he did hit his best friend in the face with a frying pan. He guesses he can understand. Just this once.]

I tend not to notice idiots taking off their clothes for no reason, sorry.

[But he sighs, because for some reason, he feels the need to actually help you Horst. And do it for no reason,]

Believe me now?

[Voice]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

[That's because they have secret brolove.]

...Yes.

As you pointed out, it seems they've taken my rapier wit and left me with--

[A ton of jealousy. Huh, he's never really felt that before. It blows.]

[Voice] 1/2

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

[He loves Zack with all his heart. You? Not so much.]

Jealousy, apparently.

[Voice]

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

Look, I don't care if your friends with her. I want her to have friends here. She needs them.

Just no... other.... stuff.

[Voice]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Cloud, she's fifteen. And much as I care for her, she's not my type.

[Too bad there's Greed and Envy now! rational!Horst is happily shoved to the side.]

But if you do anything to hurt her, I'll be waiting.

[Voice]

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

[Cloud's pretty sure he likes rational!Horst. What are the odds?]

I'd die before I'd hurt her.

[Voice]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

And if not before, I'm certain she'd kill you after.

So. What is it like, being tied down?
