Rinoa Heartilly is talking low to Seifer... not even looking at Squall who's on the bed

Seifer Almasy whispers back to Rinoa.... one eye turning as he notices Squall is awake

Squall Leonhart says, "..."

Seifer Almasy turns to Squall

Seifer Almasy says, "you awake?"

Squall Leonhart says, "yeah. I pass out?"

Seifer Almasy says, "you were asleep for some time... we brought you to where you wanted to go"

Squall Leonhart says, "Mmm... they let you guys in?"

Seifer Almasy says, "yeah"

Rinoa Heartilly sighs and turns to Squall

Rinoa Heartilly says, "How do you feel?"

Squall Leonhart says, "alright I guess"

Seifer Almasy says, "any better? They have been doing things to you"

Rinoa Heartilly turns to Seifer and gets an oddly sad look in her eyes

Rinoa Heartilly says, "Seifer..."

Squall Leonhart says, "......."

Seifer Almasy turns his gaze from Rinoa

Squall Leonhart says, "Umm... what’s with the looks here?  "

Seifer Almasy says, "I said no... "

Rinoa Heartilly says, "Nothing about you Squall, so don't worry"

Squall Leonhart says, "Okie... Hey..  they have food here?  Um... "

Seifer Almasy says, "yes. I'll tell some one"

Seifer Almasy walks out of the room

Squall Leonhart says, "What’s your problems?"

Rinoa Heartilly watches Seifer leave before she walks over to Squall, shaking her head

Rinoa Heartilly says, "He's so stubborn..."

Squall Leonhart says, "Stubborn about what?"

Rinoa Heartilly says, "well, they offered to treat him... but he refused the procedure saying he'd rather die then that"

Squall Leonhart says, "Oh.... I'll make him"

Rinoa Heartilly says, "how?"

Rinoa Heartilly sits on the edge of Squall's bed

Squall Leonhart says, "beats me... but I feel.. more energized. Umm.... do I look any better?"

Rinoa Heartilly smiles and nods

Rinoa Heartilly says, "yes"

Rinoa Heartilly takes one of his hands and holds it

Squall Leonhart says, "Uhnn.. why you doing that?"

Seifer Almasy walks back in and pauses at the door... watching them in silence

Rinoa Heartilly says, "Wanted to see if you were feeling better"

Squall Leonhart says, "I am... "

Seifer Almasy says, "That's good"

Squall Leonhart looks at Seifer

Seifer Almasy walks into the room all the way and over to Squall's bed

Squall Leonhart says, "If you don’t let them help you I’m gonna wait till you’re weak and kick your ass"

Seifer Almasy says, "I'm not going to get weak"

Squall Leonhart says, "Then I'll kick your ass anyway"

Seifer Almasy says, "I'll still win"

Rinoa Heartilly sighs and lets go of Squall's hand... getting off the bed

Seifer Almasy grins at Squall

Rinoa Heartilly gives Seifer a look before leaving the room

Squall Leonhart Watches after Rinoa

Squall Leonhart says, "Alright....  you want me to say I friggin need you alive .....?"

Seifer Almasy says, "Why would you need me at all?"

Seifer Almasy sits down on the bed

Squall Leonhart looks at Seifer.... and blinks slowly

Seifer Almasy looks at Squall

Seifer Almasy says, "why would you Squall? Why do you even care?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Cuz… You’re part of my childhood and stuff..."

Seifer Almasy says, "Which I remember nothing of"

Seifer Almasy folds his arms and looks at Squall with his icy eyes

Squall Leonhart says, "yeah.. which you don’t remember"

Seifer Almasy says, "Then tell me"

Squall Leonhart says, "Guess your not remembering means it shouldn’t matter to me anymore huh?"

Seifer Almasy says, "Just tell me Squall"

Seifer Almasy brushes a strand of hair out of his eyes

Seifer Almasy says, "I want to know what I don't remember"

Squall Leonhart says, "Geesh... we grew up together... taught each other to fight... you always won.."

Seifer Almasy says, "of course. what else? You already said that"

Seifer Almasy places a hand on Squall's hip

Squall Leonhart says, "You were always attracted to me ... that way Seifer... "

Seifer Almasy says, "really? When did you know?"

Squall Leonhart says, "I was always too young to understand it though... it always made you angry that I pushed you away"

Seifer Almasy says, "What did I do?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Tried to kiss me and stuff"

Seifer Almasy says, "anything else?"

Squall Leonhart says, "You would beat the crap outta me when I pushed you away"

Seifer Almasy says, "Well, that I can figure. what else happened when we were little?"

Squall Leonhart says, "You got adopted... before me"

Seifer Almasy says, "adopted?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Yeah... "

Seifer Almasy says, "by?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Then we ended up in the same garden.... but you had junctioned a GF and didn’t remember"

Seifer Almasy says, "oh... yes..."

Squall Leonhart says, "Some people... whoever you call mom and dad I guess"

Seifer Almasy says, "I don't call anyone that. what about you?"

Squall Leonhart says, "I just got sent off to garden... "

Seifer Almasy sighs and strokes his hand down Squall's hip and onto his thigh

Squall Leonhart says, "Seeeifer... please... don’t do that ... "

Seifer Almasy says, "why not?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Brings back some unwelcome memories.. things I've tried to forgive you for"

Seifer Almasy says, "like what other then in the past week"

Squall Leonhart says, "Yeah.... cept I was younger.... and it hurt a lot more...."

Seifer Almasy rubs his neck and winces

Seifer Almasy says, "What did?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Seifer go get healed... then we can talk...."

Seifer Almasy says, "Squall... I can't do that... I might not live through the procedure for one.... and the other it will keep me from fighting and serving the sorceress"

Squall Leonhart closes his eyes

Squall Leonhart says, "Then we don’t need to talk...."

Seifer Almasy says, "why not?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Because what I say will be meaningless if you are going to die......."

Seifer Almasy says, "Squall, if I can't serve the sorceress then my life ends anyway... she only saved me from my death to serve her.... and what they will do to heal me will keep me from that"

Squall Leonhart says, "...."

Seifer Almasy looks at him

Squall Leonhart shifts and notices he has an  IV and boredly tries to pull it out

Seifer Almasy says, "Leave that in"

Squall Leonhart says, "Why"

Seifer Almasy says, "You need it"

Squall Leonhart says, "Its not like it matters if I die Seifer..."

Seifer Almasy says, "and you will not even tell me what's on your mind"

Squall Leonhart . o O ( The only person I semi care about is too wrapped up in himself to care so what does it matter?)

Squall Leonhart says, "Why bother?"

Squall Leonhart stops picking at the IV anyway cuz it hurts

Seifer Almasy says, "you don't get it do you? When I was waiting to be executed all I could think about was what you said to me... and that I wanted to know what I had forgotten. I owe all the time I have now to the sorceress.... and I must be able to perform my duties for her"

Squall Leonhart says, "What does it matter if you remember again? Those memories mean nothing"

Seifer Almasy says, "I just want to know"

Seifer Almasy stroke's Squall's thigh

Seifer Almasy says, "Please tell me"

Squall Leonhart says, "Seifer I’ve told you all that matters"

Seifer Almasy sighs

Seifer Almasy says, "then what did you have to forgive me for?"

Seifer Almasy leans in close to him.... his breath against his cheek

Squall Leonhart says, "Your.. behavior... Seifer stop it"

Seifer Almasy says, "Then tell me"

Seifer Almasy moves closer... still stroking his thigh

Squall Leonhart says, "You ... took it upon yourself to do exactly what you are doing to me right now... several times in my youth. You were always more mature than I was..... "

Seifer Almasy says, "Did I? then what?"

Squall Leonhart says, "You... took me.... raped me if you want to call it that... its when I finally realized what you were after... but you got adopted a few days later"

Seifer Almasy says, "I raped you before? And I still don't remember being adopted..."

Seifer Almasy presses his nose to Squall's cheek

Squall Leonhart says, "yes you did... now quit that"

Seifer Almasy says, "but it feels so nice"

Seifer Almasy pulls away though

Squall Leonhart says, "You’re going to give yourself a heart attack"

Seifer Almasy says, "I know... it hurts me to think about that... makes me wonder which manner to die... whether in the heat of a battle... waiting for when my lungs finally collapse.... or in bed in the throws of passion"

Squall Leonhart . o O ( and possibly one for myself as well...  I feel better but not 100%..  yet..... )

Seifer Almasy sighs

Squall Leonhart says, "Find someone else to die in bed with... I couldn’t handle it"

Seifer Almasy says, "the second one has no appeal for me"

Seifer Almasy looks at Squall

Seifer Almasy says, "You couldn't handle it?"

Squall Leonhart says, "..."

Squall Leonhart closes his eyes and rolls onto his side carefully..  annoyed by the IV line

Seifer Almasy strokes his hand down Squall's side

Squall Leonhart shivers

Squall Leonhart says, "Seifer..... quit it..."

Seifer Almasy sighs and lays out on the empty part of the bed

Squall Leonhart . o O ( neither of us can handle it.... so stop trying to goad me.... )

Seifer Almasy says, "how did you react to this as a kid Squall?"

Squall Leonhart says, "....."

Squall Leonhart says, "I tolerated it "

Seifer Almasy says, "Tolerated it?"

Squall Leonhart says, "......"

Squall Leonhart . o O ( I didn’t know how to enjoy it... )

Seifer Almasy sighs and rubs his temples

Seifer Almasy says, "Squall..."

Squall Leonhart sighs softly.. and plucks at the IV again

Seifer Almasy says, "as soon as you are better I need to bring you back to the sorceress"

Squall Leonhart says, "That’s alright... At least... I wont have to face her.... weak and helpless"

Seifer Almasy says, "I do not know what she will do though"

Seifer Almasy nods

Seifer Almasy says, "and know, I must do what ever she asked me to do... even if it's hurt you... because she gave me the time I know have"

Seifer Almasy leans his head on Squall's shoulder

Seifer Almasy says, "Squall"

Squall Leonhart cuddles back against Seifer

Squall Leonhart says, "mmm?"

Seifer Almasy pulls Squall onto his chest... wheezing a little

Seifer Almasy says, "I... I... I'm sorry I got angry enough to try to kill you... and Quistis... and did kill that guy..."

Squall Leonhart says, "Its alright... you always got angry...  and hurt me when I was little... I've gotten used to it really...  understood why and all...."

Seifer Almasy says, "and why is it?"

Seifer Almasy tickles Squall's chest

Squall Leonhart sighs

Squall Leonhart says, "You’ve always been after me... you never learned how to show affections properly"

Seifer Almasy says, "hmmm? Like what?"

Seifer Almasy 's hand quests down lower and starts trying to get into Squall's pants

Squall Leonhart says, "Seifer....."

Seifer Almasy says, "mmm?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Neither of us is in shape for that.... "

Seifer Almasy sighs

Seifer Almasy says, "I know...."

Squall Leonhart says, "I used to sleep with you a lot... mostly during rain storms... thunder scared me...."

Seifer Almasy says, "and what would I do?"

Squall Leonhart says, "I would let you hold me then.. and after a while we just gave up sleeping apart"

Seifer Almasy takes his hand out of Squall's pants

Seifer Almasy says, "I do anything back then?"

Squall Leonhart says, "But then you started changing....  and holding me...  well your hands didn’t always stay where they were supposed to be"

Squall Leonhart fiddles with his IV... quite annoyed with it

Seifer Almasy says, "What I do then?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Just what you were about to do"

Seifer Almasy says, "fondling you?"

Squall Leonhart says, "It.....  really didn’t do anything for me... since I had no hormones... but you liked it "

Seifer Almasy says, "what you I do?"

Squall Leonhart says, "You liked to see me squirm I think"

Seifer Almasy says, "How much did you squirm?"

Squall Leonhart says, "a lot.. because... it was a bit of an overload for a youngster"

Seifer Almasy says, "hmmm.. how did I overload you then? touching doesn’t do that usually"

Squall Leonhart says, "You had that oral fixation"

Seifer Almasy says, "Mmmm, oh, I wonder how that came about.. heh"

Seifer Almasy kisses the back of Squall's neck

Squall Leonhart yanks on his IV

Squall Leonhart says, "This thing is bugging me"

Seifer Almasy says, "don't take it out"

Squall Leonhart says, "...."

Seifer Almasy kisses Squall's neck again

Squall Leonhart says, "I highly doubt it’s keeping me alive or anything..."

Seifer Almasy says, "True..."

Seifer Almasy nibbles on his ear

Squall Leonhart says, "Mmmm... quit that...."

Seifer Almasy says, "but you like it"

Squall Leonhart says, "Yes... "

Seifer Almasy licks his ear

Squall Leonhart says, "Mmm.....  stop Seifer.....  for yourself..."

Seifer Almasy sighs

Seifer Almasy says, "for my heart...."

Seifer Almasy closes his eyes

Squall Leonhart rolls over to Face Seifer.. tangling his IV line a bit

Seifer Almasy says, "It hurt a lot to feel my lungs rupture as they got no air... hurt a lot too when I was healed and started to breathe again.. nearly had a heart attack right then and there"

Seifer Almasy looks at Squall

Squall Leonhart squeaks... and yanks out the IV.. tossing it aside

Squall Leonhart says, "Damned thing..."

Squall Leonhart runs his fingers along Seifer's chest

Seifer Almasy says, "yeah"

Seifer Almasy smiles a little, making a wheezing sound like a sigh

Squall Leonhart says, "Once you get me back to Galbadia... they will probably have me executed..... "

Seifer Almasy says, "If so, opt for something other then hanging... it's a very bad way to die if you don't get a broken neck"

Seifer Almasy nuzzles Squall's neck

Squall Leonhart nods

Squall Leonhart says, "Just.... Seifer... you make sure you get better.... "

Seifer Almasy sighs

Seifer Almasy says, "how though?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Any way you can"

Squall Leonhart is content to just be close to Seifer....  sharing a bed like they used to

Seifer Almasy says, "What will it matter? I'll die for the sorceress if she asked"

Squall Leonhart sighs

Squall Leonhart says, "Stop being a pest.. "

Seifer Almasy says, "pest?"

Seifer Almasy nuzzles his neck again

Seifer Almasy says, "Squall..."

Seifer Almasy sighs in a wheeze

Squall Leonhart says, "Yes a pest...  what’s Rinoa going to do if you die?  Be alone...."

Seifer Almasy says, "...... I know.... she's upset too "

Seifer Almasy sighs

Squall Leonhart says, "She likes you much... I think "

Seifer Almasy says, "I know she does... she will not tell anyone how much but I know"

Squall Leonhart begins to feel pleasantly droopy and fuzzy

Seifer Almasy leans his head on Squall

Seifer Almasy says, "You know how I want to die?"

Squall Leonhart says, "No....... how?"

Seifer Almasy says, "the 3rd way I said..."

Squall Leonhart says, "And what was that?"

Seifer Almasy says, "passion... "

Squall Leonhart says, "Good luck then"

Seifer Almasy sighs

Seifer Almasy says, "but I suppose battle will be good enough... I do not want to wait around for my lungs to collapse"

Squall Leonhart . o O ( you want that passion to be with me don’t you? )

Seifer Almasy kisses Squall's neck, closing his eyes and wheezing softly

Seifer Almasy says, "What do you say to that Squall?"

Squall Leonhart says, "cuz.."

Seifer Almasy snuggles against him

Squall Leonhart drapes his arms around Seifer

Seifer Almasy says, "what?"

Squall Leonhart falls asleep

Seifer Almasy falls asleep as well. clutches Squall very tightly once his nightmares start up

Squall Leonhart sighs

Seifer Almasy sniffles and moans in pain in his sleep

Squall Leonhart says, "You woke me up… when did these start..."

Seifer Almasy shivers and holds Squall, still asleep

Squall Leonhart strokes his fingers through Seifer's hair... trying to calm him

Seifer Almasy starts to cry asleep, soaking Squall's shoulder

Squall Leonhart says, "You’re important to me Seifer.. part of the past.... but I don’t have a future......"

Seifer Almasy gasps in his sleeping, having breathing trouble

Squall Leonhart rubs Seifer's shoulders slightly.. trying to relax him a bit so he can breathe better

Seifer Almasy wakes up, gasping again, and shakes his head to clear it. swallows hard then wipes his eyes, regaining his composure

Seifer Almasy says, "What happened?"

Squall Leonhart says, "You were having a nightmare"

Seifer Almasy says, "....... oh.... been having them ever since...."

Seifer Almasy sighs and rubs his neck, wincing slightly

Squall Leonhart sits up and begins removing the little doo dahs on his chest that have come to be an annoyance

Seifer Almasy says, "They will not go away"

Squall Leonhart squishes one as it starts beeping

Seifer Almasy sighs and takes it from Squall

Seifer Almasy says, "Let me show you something"

Seifer Almasy places the one Squall tried to squish to his own chest

Squall Leonhart blinks

Seifer Almasy says, "You hear the beat?"

Squall Leonhart nods. goes back to plucking the protesting sensors from his chest

Seifer Almasy takes it away again. pulls Squall into his arms. reaches over and turns the monitors off

Seifer Almasy says, "Squall?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Mmm?"

Seifer Almasy says, "Will you promise me something?"

Squall Leonhart says, "What is it ......?"

Seifer Almasy says, "When I take you back, if you are to be killed, will you let me be with you for that night?"

Squall Leonhart says, "I can’t let you die in my arms..... "

Seifer Almasy says, "why not?"

Squall Leonhart says, "because I ....  "

Squall Leonhart Gets out of the bed .... and nearly topples over because his legs feel like they are made of lead

Seifer Almasy looks over at him

Squall Leonhart says, "Legs.. work now... "

Squall Leonhart looks for his clothing

Seifer Almasy says, "Where are you going?"

Squall Leonhart says, "..."

Squall Leonhart . o O ( Away from the thought of your death..... )

Squall Leonhart says, "Where's.... my clothes.... an my blade?"

Seifer Almasy says, "over there"

Seifer Almasy points and gets out of bed

Seifer Almasy says, "You have to tell me why you can't do what I ask"

Squall Leonhart says, "Cuz I cant!!!"

Squall Leonhart begins to slowly get dressed

Seifer Almasy says, "I'm not telling you to kill me..."

Squall Leonhart says, "But you will die… I’m not going to kill you..."

Seifer Almasy says, "It hurts to breathe Squall, did I tell you that? And, my nightmares.... they are getting worse... actually, those might kill me now that I think about it. but, then I'll have to die alone... what I don't want"

Squall Leonhart says, "I don’t care! Just leave me alone..."

Seifer Almasy turns his head away

Seifer Almasy says, "You never care about anything"

Squall Leonhart . o O ( I do... that’s why I can’t do what you ask... )

Seifer Almasy leaves... his face set in some odd emotion Squall has never seen him show before

Squall Leonhart struggles with his zipper.. cursing his feebleness

Squall Leonhart says, "I’m so damned hungry.... and Seifer left..... so Im leaving"

Rinoa Heartilly walks into the room with some food

Rinoa Heartilly says, "Where's Seifer?"

Squall Leonhart says, "He got upset"

Rinoa Heartilly says, "What did you say to him?"

Squall Leonhart says, "I wont kill him"

Rinoa Heartilly says, "huh?"

Rinoa Heartilly blinks in surprise

Squall Leonhart says, "When I get executed he wants me to spend the night before with him......"

Rinoa Heartilly says, "when you what??"

Rinoa Heartilly leans on the door, wanting Squall to finish what he was saying

Rinoa Heartilly says, "um.. go on"

Squall Leonhart says, "I’m most likely going to be executed by the Sorceress. I’m going to make Seifer leave you here"

Rinoa Heartilly says, "........"

Rinoa Heartilly sighs and nods

Rinoa Heartilly says, "and what about the night before?"

Squall Leonhart says, "He wants to die in a fit of passion"

Rinoa Heartilly says, "......."

Squall Leonhart says, "fit of passion... with me... "

Rinoa Heartilly says, "His heart... he'd have a heart attack..."

Squall Leonhart says, "I’m not going to do it"

Rinoa Heartilly says, "no wonder he was upset..."

Squall Leonhart says, "I can’t do it..."

Rinoa Heartilly says, "but, why would he want to die so soon anyway?"

Squall Leonhart says, "He .. wants to die with me I think. But I can’t let him die in my arms..."

Rinoa Heartilly says, "oh... well... I can see that.... I suppose I'd better go now then.... so I can go away and hide"

Squall Leonhart nods

Rinoa Heartilly says, "... why can't you do that Squall?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Take care of yourself....."

Squall Leonhart shakes his head

Rinoa Heartilly says, "I will. Squall? Why can't you?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Cuz... I care too damned much"

Rinoa Heartilly says, "you... care?"

Squall Leonhart nods

Squall Leonhart says, "Take care of Seifer... if he ever sorts himself out. I know you like him"

Rinoa Heartilly smiles

Rinoa Heartilly says, "I know... he sort of likes me... but.. I think he feels more for you then me"

Squall Leonhart says, "I won’t be around as competition anymore"

Rinoa Heartilly says, "don't say that... you don't know for sure"

Squall Leonhart says, "Pretty sure"

Rinoa Heartilly goes and hugs him

Squall Leonhart returns the hug

Rinoa Heartilly says, "I'll hope for the best"

Squall Leonhart says, "Don’t worry bout me.. I escape good"

Rinoa Heartilly kisses his cheek

Rinoa Heartilly says, "Ok then... see you"

Rinoa Heartilly runs out quickly

Seifer Almasy is waiting outside the city... looking down at the ground

Squall Leonhart wanders out of the hospital

Squall Leonhart says, "Alright... I’m ready"

Seifer Almasy says, "Come then"

Seifer Almasy walks back to the car... coughing along the way and finally spitting a clump out onto the road

Squall Leonhart follows Seifer and slides into the backseat

Seifer Almasy starts up the car

Seifer Almasy says, "It is time for me to take you to the sorceress... you'll have to be disarmed though"

Squall Leonhart hands over his gunblade

Seifer Almasy takes it. starts to drive off back to the sorceress

Squall Leonhart stretches out on the back seat and sighs

Seifer Almasy says, "Why do you sigh?"

Squall Leonhart says, "no reason.."

Seifer Almasy wheezes and continues to drive

Squall Leonhart says, "Can you turn on the radio?"

Seifer Almasy says, "alright"

Seifer Almasy turns it on

Seifer Almasy says, "Squall, just tell me why you can't do what I ask"

Squall Leonhart says, "Cuz....."

Seifer Almasy says, "why?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Cuz you’re my big Brother.... and I care about you......"

Seifer Almasy says, "I told you I'm in pain... why can't you let me have what I want?"

Squall Leonhart says, "Because… Shove a sword up your ass. I’m not letting you die with me"

Seifer Almasy sighs

Seifer Almasy says, "you are to stubborn... well... we'll find out what the sorceress says"

Seifer Almasy sighs and drives on
