[Rude smiled at that.

And yes. It was nice. Until it eventually changed.]

It's got it's ups and downs. All in all life is better here.

You must have noticed?

[fairlyheroic]

Hmm? Noticed what?

[Zack shifts to sink further into the water, finishing off his drink]

That life is better or something else?

[suitandshades]

Better. Easier. Less stressful.

[Even the stressful parts were easier to handle. It was like a great weight had been lifted off of Rude shoulders. It had taken a little while to adjust, but now? Now he was learning to relax and that, Rude thought, was a good thing.]

[fairlyheroic]

I might've noticed that, yeah.

[no orders to make him second guess anything, no being pushed this way and that and running missions just to keep himself busy.

. . . no running from the Turks or Genesis almost non-stop. Yeah, he definitely noticed]

I think I'm finally starting to get used to it.

[suitandshades]

You should. You've a second chance at the life you should have had.

[Rude reached for his drink and, after finishing it off, signalled for it to be refilled.]

I think we could all do with this break from reality.

[fairlyheroic]

It's pretty close to what I thought it'd be. A lot less stressful.

[you know, he's just going to have his drink refilled, too]

I don't know if it's a break so much as . . . being in the back of mind instead of the front, if that makes sense?

[suitandshades]

[Rude raised a brow.]

I'd meant being in a new world. A break from our own world.

[And the obligations within. And for Zack, it was a whole new life. There was no future back home for him until he was reborn. But here? Here he could do the things he'd always wanted. And, as he said, bring those things from the back of his mind all the way to the front.

Rude went quiet then as a waitress came to refill both of their drinks. He thanked her with a smile and took a sip before he spoke again.]

It feels good seeing everyone happier.

[fairlyheroic]

Hah, true. From what I hear and know, everyone could use the break.

[an understatement, but not a bad one. Zack offers his thanks to the waitress too and takes a sip as well, making a noise of agreement]

It does. I'm pretty glad everyone's trying to get along, too. I know it probably isn't easy.

[suitandshades]

Strange, though.

[He can't help admitting.]

Getting along with Sephiroth, for starters. The thing with Aerith. Cloud lightening up. [Rude tilted his head to look over at Zack with a bit of a smirk.] Even sitting here with you. Getting along like old friends. It's easier than expected.

[fairlyheroic]

[the look he gives Rude over his glass is amused, even if he tries for a "no kidding?" tone]

Getting along with you is probably the least strange out of all of those, man.

[suitandshades]

I'll take that as a compliment.

[Gladly, in fact. Though the fact he was chatting to a dead man was pretty damn strange to Rude. He wasn't going to point that part out though. Zack didn't seem too interested in talking about that and Rude didn't blame him.]

I like it here. Feels... like a fresh start.

[fairlyheroic]

Only way I meant it.

[and when he thinks about it, he's kind of glad for all the weird stuff. Between that and everyone playing nice plus this place, there's no room for anything else. It's pretty perfect, at least to him, considering where he stands in it all]

It kinda does. Fresh start, fresh slate - can't complain, right?
