[closed] 🔶 i don't have a witty title for this one
Who: Ferran & his gfs
When: ~15th or so
Where: Ferran's house
What: At last, they meet.
Warnings: ???
Ferran had definitely meant to do this earlier. Not immediately, given that he first had to grapple with his own behavior on those nights under the near-full moons. But then he'd been occupied with worrying about them and his other friends who'd suffered from the cult's actions, and then Tsutha had left and he wasn't in much of a state to arrange a positive sort of meeting, and then Underground mess made such a thing impossible, and then everyone had to recover from that...
... look, it's fine. They're not excuses, they're all very valid reasons. And he's doing it now! So it's fine.
He's just setting up another meeting between his bonded—and that's what he tells the two girls. He's doing much better on the time aspect when it comes to that... and the other thing can be brought up at some point. He'll figure it out. Better not to think too much about it... probably.
So he asks them to meet at his house, arranging a time close to the middle of the month. It's definitely a better idea to have this kind of conversation in the privacy of his own home, compared to a more public venue. There are cute plant pets to distract them. He wants both of them to feel welcome there anytime. He can distract himself by preparing their snacks, drinks and meal instead of vibrating out of his skin waiting for them to arrive. And he knows the nooks and crannies to hide in should it all go down poorly.
It's just unfortunate that he can't quite keep his anxiety to himself when it comes to those bonds. The fact that the two of them are familiar with his tendency to avoid talking about his issues may or may not turn out to be a blessing...

returns forever later oops >.>
[ Yona's smile softens at that, because she's often thought the same. Connections are everywhere here - and far more intricate than even the Bonds can manage sometimes. ]
I met Karin shortly after she arrived here. The circus, I think? [ She pauses as she tries to remember, before shaking her head. ] Oh, and Alice, too! I hadn't realized she was there as well. It really is a small city.
/o/ huzzah!!
I guess that's what happens when we're all sent to the same neighborhood.
[Speaking of houses and the like, though...]
Sit down and make yourselves comfortable wherever you want. [Not that he has to remind them they're welcome to pretty much everything he owns, but still.] Lunch should be done in a few minutes.
no subject
[The Al Bhed are big on the idea of community, and that transfers over to Rikku's experiences here.]
Do you need help with anything, Ferran? I feel kind of bad hogging Yona and making you do all the work.
