[The PCD clacks and the view shakes a bit, but finally centers on Horst's happy face. He's up on a roof, with four bottles of liquor and a chair.]
Right, you bunch of nutters, I'm going to sit up here and watch you all run about.
Tyki, you want a drink? I'm up here in the sane corner of the world.

Date: 2011-04-20 01:26 am (UTC)The bottle lands somewhere on the ground, thankfully sealed tightly as Cloud pushes himself up, leg's straddling the others, hand coming up to cup his chin tightly. Congrats, Horst, you know have one pissed off Cloud in your lap.]
Never refer to me like that again. I'm a First Class SOLDIER, one of the vice presidents personal guard dogs, and you will show me the respect I deserve. Got it?

Date: 2011-04-20 01:30 am (UTC)[He gives Cloud a very small half-smile]
You know I think more of you than that. Don't be ridiculous--I trust you more than I trusted my own brother when he was here.

Date: 2011-04-20 01:32 am (UTC)Doesn't that scare you?
[Offline]
Date: 2011-04-20 01:38 am (UTC)Horst shook his head, weak with disappointment.
He's affected, he told himself again. This wasn't his Cloud.]
No. You're better than that.
[Offline]
Date: 2011-04-20 01:42 am (UTC)All that matters to him now is protecting the few people who still matter to him.]
No. I'm not. I want to be but I'm just.... not.
[Offline]
Date: 2011-04-20 06:19 am (UTC)[It's not said in the way most people would expect. He's not trying to convince Cloud to do anything. He's just stating a fact.
The sky is blue. The Animus are assholes. Cloud is better than this.]
I wouldn't have thrown my lot in with you if I didn't know that about you.
[Offline]
Date: 2011-04-20 06:23 am (UTC)[But he smiles softly.]
[Offline]
Date: 2011-04-20 06:26 am (UTC)[Cloud's still straddling him, and now that they're not almost coming to blows he's not sure what to do with his hands. In the spirit of their banter, he rests them on Cloud's knees.]
[Offline]
Date: 2011-04-20 06:28 am (UTC)[He doesn't even notice where Horst's hands are anyway.]

Date: 2011-04-20 06:37 am (UTC)Just you. But you just admitted to worshiping me.
[Offline]
Date: 2011-04-20 06:39 am (UTC)[And reaching for the vodka now. He's so not even drunk enough for this conversation.]
[Offline]
Date: 2011-04-20 06:43 am (UTC)[He lets him get the drink, though he'll try to steal a pull or two from it]
[Offline]
Date: 2011-04-20 06:44 am (UTC)[If there's any left. It'd take a lot more than that bottle to get him drunk, Horst.]
[Offline]
Date: 2011-04-20 06:48 am (UTC)Make me.
[Offline]
Date: 2011-04-20 06:49 am (UTC)Keep talking like that and I will.
[Offline]
Date: 2011-04-20 06:51 am (UTC)[The bottle's empty. That won't do.]
--Let's go to the bar.
[Offline]
Date: 2011-04-20 06:54 am (UTC)[He's not gonna let that go, Horst, just so you know.]
