Mm? [ He blinks. ] ! Oh- Right.

[ For a moment, it looks like he feels bad for having forgotten about her cake. Even halfheartedly shrugging his shoulders in an "oops" fashion. As if right on cue, the server is seen wandering and wondering where her customers went. ]

Gotcha. [ A beat and a raised hand later. ] Hey!

[ Their salad isn't quite ready yet (they make the bacon and softboiled eggs fresh), but they happened by and noticed the two were gone. ]

You guys happen to have cheesecake?

[ "Oh, yes! We have our original creamy cheesecake, triple berry cheesecake, strawberry, caramel pecan, and double chocolate swirl." ]
liveandforgive: (it's my turn)

[personal profile] liveandforgive 2021-08-29 09:00 am (UTC)(link)
Triple berry's good. We'll both have a slice.

[ Hopefully Weiss doesn't notice, but he tries to quickly mouth the words "that one" to clue the server in. Without so much as batting an eyelash, the waitress jots their little order down and tells them she'll be back with their salad soon! In truth, it was Cloud's cue to switch things up. He wasn't sure what Weiss would want for a cake or not, but when cheesecake came into the equation?

Well...it's safe to say that when dessert comes, she's in for a little surprise.

He could have winked, but...winking at the waitress? ]

[ Weiss got all the cake she'd ever wanted last night. ]

Really? [ He blinks, curiously as he takes a sip of his water and looks down at her. ] I think you can do it. Baking's pretty precise.

[ Which means it's all about doing it by the book! With cooking, it's easier to get creative. ...and also mess things up. Crepes are kind of both? You need the right measurements AND need to cook them properly with the right equipment. ]
liveandforgive: (you were there when i needed you)

[personal profile] liveandforgive 2021-08-30 07:30 am (UTC)(link)
It's...

[ "...always perfect if it's from you." But he stops himself when he reflects on the times she'd protest and say how hard he works for her. Even wanting to make the perfect stew, reminiscent of his childhood days. Of course he's happy with anything and everything she's given him. But if this is what she wants to do, strive for that "perfection"... Who was he to stop her? He can be happy with what she's done and accept more. So letting that thought trail away, he genuinely smiles once more. ]



I'm looking forward to it.

[ A beat. ...two beats. ]

That was fun.

[ He ain't saying anything more on the subject. Whether it was baking the cookies, or getting distracted? They were having fun. ]

[personal profile] liveandforgive 2021-08-31 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah...

[ Cloud was the one who made the decision to move in with her. Knowing the risks and sway of the moons on them, he'd already agreed to her dating two people at the same time in the first place. Prismatica was all about adjustments and doing your damnest to go with the flow; that's how he tried tackling things there. Yet the longer his relationship with Weiss lasted, the deeper his devotion became in turn. He can't imagine living apart from her unless he was literally forced to now.

He sure as hell never wants to be alone ever again. ]


[ "It's not quite the same here, but I'm glad we have a room to call ours." ]

You ever think of us getting our own place again?

[ Not that he's tired of staying with Elaine! That was honestly such a blessing for them after all the effort they put into trying to find an affordable place to stay. And a place where neither one would be getting hit on nonstop. afdskjh ]
liveandforgive: (i'll come back)

[personal profile] liveandforgive 2021-08-31 09:44 am (UTC)(link)
[ Though the hold on his hand loosens some, Cloud hasn't drawn away. Instead, he leans on the table with his forearm, watching her even while she opens up about her own dreams for their future. He couldn't have predicted the Beasts of Calamity all resurging the way they did. But at the end of the battle, they were all given a choice. Free pathways between worlds, Gaia, Remnant and alike. Yet here they are, undergoing another trial with less control than before... It's something he thinks about from time to time; they were so close to having everything they could have asked for. Worlds connected and lives entwined. Even that "future" they saw together could have very well been a reality...

He huffs with a faint chuckle at the thought of a pet, patiently waiting for her to finish as he mulls what's going through her mind. ]


...

[ She gets another squeeze of her hand, Cloud scooting in just a little closer at her side as he smiles confidently for her. ]

That's right. [ But most importantly, ] Tough as you are, I'll still be there when you need to get pulled back up.

[ Out of the depths of fear. She's in charge of her own destiny, but no one ever said that she had to do it alone. Same goes for Cloud. Where would he be without the support of his own family and friends? They're what he fights for. Weiss is what he fights for. For everything that he cherishes. ]

Gotta say...we packed a lot of adventure into those two years. Fought all sorts of things. Almost feels like I've been at my busiest away from home. 'Specially with you.

[ Sure, there were obstacles along the way back home in his pursuit of Sephiroth. But back on Prismatica, for both the good and the bad, it seemed like there was always something new on the horizon. It seems that the multiverse picked a good time to pull him away; it was about time he finally learned what he wanted in life, and to learn what it meant to truly live for himself. To be happy and to express that happiness. ]
liveandforgive: (i had fun)

[personal profile] liveandforgive 2021-09-06 08:35 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah...

[ He's not about to spoil the mood by telling her the inevitable truth, however. The truth that for every period of peace they get, there's bound to be trouble on the horizon. Whether they're the ones dealing with it or not? That remains to be seen. So instead, as he fondly reminisces over the memories they retained of that "future" they made, he's more intent on focusing ahead. There's still many trials Weiss must overcome before she can keep her own promise to him. And while he's bested Sephiroth time and time again, the Planet beginning to heal in the wake of destruction...who knows how long that peace will last?

Day by day. They just need to live day by day. ]


Y'know...since it's your birthday, I got a confession.

[ Cloud's not that embarrassed about it. But, well...to put it bluntly, ]

I still daydream from time to time about a Semblance.

[ He's a dork. But she already knew that. ]
liveandforgive: (didn't see you there)

[personal profile] liveandforgive 2021-09-07 10:24 am (UTC)(link)
That's true...

[ They're bound to be interrupted by the waitress bringing their food soon, but he'll tell her his daydream ideas of what his Semblance could be soon enough. ...her comment on hereditary semblances does make him wonder, however. If he were to unlock his and they wound up having a kid one day like the "future" showed them... Would she inherit Glyphs like the Schnees before her? Or perhaps something entirely different?

Seems that the blond had something else to daydream mull over in his spare time. But any of those thoughts go flying out the window when she doubles over on what she just said about shaving his head. His eyes widen in a comically similar fashion to Weiss', though his innocent expression remains in the face of her pout. But he's also the first one to crack and chuckle, shoulders shaking slightly. ]


I'll try. Only way I'm lopping this off is if I literally had no choice.

[ Say, choosing between shaving his head and saving Weiss' life or something like that. But he already knows how silly this path of thought was getting for them, so he sighs through his nose, smiling with a shake of his head. ]

Till that day comes... I'll use what power I've got now.
liveandforgive: (s'cuse me??)

[personal profile] liveandforgive 2021-09-08 05:08 am (UTC)(link)
I'd— [ —record scratch sound goes here. ] Wait. What does—??

[ It's not what he meant at all. But. OH. OH. LOOK AT HIS ROSY CHEEKS. ]

A dress. Obviously. ... Why did I take a sec to think?

[ Because that's your pride on the line? And swallowing it for the sake of your girl. ]

Why do I get the feeling you'd faint if I did?

[ Sure enough, as Cloud asks this question, from the corner of his eye, he spots their server approaching with their order of cobb salads. A full-size one for him and a half-size one for Weiss. Even the half-size was piled considerately high... Thankfully? It works out! Because if, by chance, Weiss wants some more, she can take from his plate. Offering a little "thanks" as their plates are dropped down for them, he spares a glance with his girlfriend, smiling with a nod. There's plenty of room on this side of the table for them to eat side-by-side.

The lettuce is crisp and fresh, yet surprisingly thick of leaf. Lettuce had a tendency of getting a bad rap as being practically water, but the corn, bacon and avocado that's spread throughout the mixture creates a good blend of flavors. It's...honestly his first time having this type of salad. He may not be the best cook (unless it's crepes. god those drilled into his head,) but he's going to remember this if Weiss happens to like it too. ]


Before we head back... [ he starts after swallowing his forkful. ] There's somewhere I wanna take you.

[ Just so she doesn't think their day ends after dinner and they go right back to their room. ]
liveandforgive: (watching over me)

Just a spot on the way back to the Red Springs.

[ More specifically, it's an isolated location just on the border of the resort. There's steps built in that lead to the top of an isolated hill. From the top, one can see the springs and resort. And in the distance? The fabled city of Camelot they now call home. His first night here, he'd taken it all in from up here... But he has a plan for when they get there.

They'd been prepared to go out for the dance class...but he still wants one more from her, as twilight casts its glow from the horizon and the stars slowly begin kissing the night sky.

Until then? He wants her to enjoy her birthday dinner and cake to come. The staff would deliver it with a candle alit, as per Cloud's instructions for the birthday girl. ]
