Large-ass swords abound! This is Final Fantasy VII!

Eh, why not?


: You don't see them growing in the slums that often...


I give it to Sonia, because she didn't run away from me and refuse to say anything. >:I


 It also gives a boost to Sonia's "affection". This affects nothing but who'll go on a date with Cloud later in the game. There's four options total, with the options being Sonia and Mr. T at the moment (although I believe it's under the pretense of "hanging out" then). Getting the Mr. T date is hella hard, though, because he starts with 0 affection.


[Cloud]: Sonia, you are aware that this is a T-rated game on the PlayStation, right? You don't have to call it a store.

Anyway, we can talk to people. I talk to the little bugger, Marlene.


Except not. Little bugger


[Biggs]: Hic!!

Why don't you have one too?
[Cloud]: Yeah, why not?



[Biggs]: Nobody else would drink with me! Even if you were in SOLDIER, you're a rookie here. So you'd better listen to whatever I tell ya!


Cloud is 21, so this is legal.  



[Wedge]: Sonia's cooking is really good. Mmm, mmm...
yes, Sonia cooks. but she also kicks ass, so.
[Wedge]: Anyway, let me tell you somethin'.
[Cloud]: I'm not interested in your stories.
[Wedge]: Cloud...

...forget it.

What? It's in my character to be as humanly disinterested in Wedge as possible.



[Jessie]: Wonder what for......?



That was it. C'mon, Jess! Wedge at least tried to lure us in with stories of grandeur!



Trying to leave nets Mr. T barging in and Cloud jumping onto a table.



What? Mr. T's Marlene's father?





I dunno. Doesn't there seem to be...a difference? No, it's not that Mr. T has a nose and Marlene doesn't.



Awww, Mr. T has Marlene on his shoulders! :3

I dunno, it just seems like a thing to go :3 about.



[Mr. T]: Get in here, fools!! We're startin' the meeting!!

The pinball machine goes down to the basement. It seems like a bad choice to me, to be honest. "Hey cool, a pinball machine! I'll just play...gwah!"

Then everybody jumps in after him. Even Wedge.

Except Cloud, for some reason.

And Tifa. So you can get some dialouge for her. Which I forgot to record. Eheheh.


"Oops"? Jessie!
[Jessie]: Hey, look at the news...what a blast.
Think it was all because of my bomb? But all I really did was make it just like the computer told me.
Oh no! I must've made a miscalculation somewhere.

Jessie Respect: -5


[Wedge]: The next mission will be to blow up the Sector 5 reactor.
Cloud, you're great! Don't you ever get nervous?
[Cloud]: Nah, I'm just cool like that. 
[Wedge]: Or are you just impervious to feelings? Naw, that couldn't be it.

Before I can talk to Biggs...


[Mr. T]: Was there anyone from SOLDIER fighting us today?


[Mr. T]: You sound pretty sure.
[Cloud]: Everything died in one hit. I didn't. You *know* I'm in SOLDIER. If there was anybody from SOLDIER you wouldn't be standing here right now.
[Mr. T]: Don't go thinking you're so bad jes cuz you was in SOLDIER. 



Then Mr. T starts spazzing out.

[Cloud]: ..............

Yeah, me too, Cloud.

Mr. T then threw Biggs against the screen, which I sadly couldn't screencap because I didn't know it was coming.


Biggs? You okay?
[Mr. T]: Probably all them guys in SOLDIER are.
But don't forget your skinny ass's workin' for AVALANCHE now!
Don't get no ideas 'bout hanging onto Shinra.

[Cloud]: You asked me a question and I answered it...that's all.


[Mr. T]: Sonia! Let him go!
Looks like he still misses the Shinra!

Dammit, Mr. T, you're being a jackass.


[Cloud]: I don't care about either Shinra or SOLDIER!


[Cloud]: I don't care about AVALANCHE or the Planet, for that matter!

Now, here's a flaw in Cloud's line of thinking. Even if he was self-centered, it would still be in his best interest to help the Planet. 'Cause, y'know, he'd die when the Planet did.

Mr. T resumes spazzing out, and Sonia wants us to try and straighten things out. So let's talk to Mr. T! Again.


...Biggs?
...we can't talk to you.


Wedge says something about Cloud wanting friends or something.


I mean, I dunno. "Blow off" just seems rude, even to Wedge.

Who then tells us that we're horrible. Bah, screw you, Wedge. Hell, screw all of you! I don't need any of you. Screw it, I'm going up on the pinball machine.

Find out what happens next time, because this update is really fucking long and my computer is going really slow because I've left FFVII on for a long time, because having it open makes my computer unable to enter sleep mode. Yeah. Plus, I've hit the limit on the time clock. So.

Yeah.

And there's not a goddamn save point anywhere near, meaning I'll have to do most of this AGAIN. Bah.
