Anything new that has variables you can't control will inspire trepidation. I suppose I can't blame you for it. But my next question is if you think what you have to gain is bigger than your uncertainty.
The good news is he kind of approached the topic first, so...it was easier to confirm the truth. The bad news is I'm pretty sure he still blames himself now that he knows.
I think two months of this and seeing me die repeatedly probably helped with that. [vaguely annoyed because goddamn. why.] But we talked and neither of us know why things turned out this way. And Zack's still out there somewhere which is a whole other level of trying to understand what happened to our timeline, but...[she shrugs.
and speaking of timelines.]
...are the three of you going back to your own separate times? [lucas told her a little, but she's not sure the stance of the others.]
Would you like a memory backup to be taken just in case? For either of you.
[ yuffie? well idk scien doesn't think about yuffie unless prompted
but, ]
We are. It's too inconvenient when we're all alive in each other's timelines, and can't abandon our own for respective reasons. I have my own Lucas to look after, as much as I want to keep looking after this one.
But I'm sending a memory backup with him, so that he can still be with a me that remembers everything.
...with the way things are going, maybe that isn't such a bad idea. Just in case. [maybe sephiroth is gone (???) but there are still so many problems to deal with.
more importantly she listens to what he says about the virches and she nods slowly.]
I understand. With where things left off for all three of you I guess it would be harder. [truthfully she wasn't sure about mathis given how he had asked about timing but this still makes sense.] I hope being with a backup of you will help him then. I'm a little worried about what he still has to face, but...you know more than I do the progress he's made. I want him to keep going.

If it is, you can let that ease you.

I told Cloud a few days ago.
[it's not exactly an answer, but at the same time it is because the answer is "my friends and their safety is bigger than my uncertainty."]

How did he take it?

[ so that's good ]
The rest... well. His emotions can be handled as long as his mind is working within the same scope of reality.
