[After a month of being crystalized, Nike, is finally ready to wave the white flag of surrender. She was done! Simply done in acting tough and having to bottle everything up.

Which was clearly written on her facial expression. Sort of. Right now she was glaring at the device with an intensity she didn't expect after realizing: THIS MAY HAVE BEEN A MISTAKE AFTER ALL!!!

WHY DIDN'T SHE TURN ON THE AUDIO INSTEAD OR HAVE ANYTHING WRITTEN DOWN TO READ FROM BECAUSE...

She was trying so hard not to cry. VERY HARD! Honestly!]


...oh, sorry... [A beat to clear her throat, in hopes to hide the fact.] M-My throat...and eyes. It got all weird. [A forced laugh.] Allergies, huh...?

[Yes. Let's pretend it's spring instead of summer! Please pretend with her.]

U-Um, so I just got back from being. A crystal, sculpture thing? Did you all know you get taken to like...somewhere to be displayed like a collection or something?

[Normally she'd be pissed, but she was too tired to even bother. Which the defeated sigh will now be offered after realizing: THIS ISN'T WHAT SHE WANTED TO SAY AT ALL!]

Anyway, umm, that isn't exactly the reason I turned this thing on. It's more than that. I just....don't have an easy way of saying it or even going around asking. Without summoning all the perverts and creeps! [Oh, shit. Why did she say that!? She'll end up biting her lower lip almost as a form of smacking herself for that comment!] No, scratch that! Just. How do I start over!? Can everyone pretend you didn't see this? Like at all? Just pretend I wasn't trying to ask for help. I really should've written something down. I'm sure I can survive without eating! I mean, spirits don't need food, right?

[And yet that doesn't sound like an option she wanted to take neither. She didn't want to starve in an unknown world. If it was back home it wouldn't be a big deal but...on cue, her stomach will begin to rumble loudly in protest forcing Nike to turn off the device immediately! How is she so bad at this!?]

[Tifa's expression is gentle, but the furrow of her brow and slight pinch of her lips belie her concern. She doesn't want to be insensitive, especially when it appears that asking for help is a struggle for Nike.

Also, what she mentions about crystallized people being put up on display sounds awful, but she's trying to focus on the more prominent problem here first.]


Even if you can survive without eating, food is too tasty to give up on completely. [She smiles.] I happen to have some left-overs to spare, if you would like them. I'm worried they would go to waste otherwise.

[The next she says a bit more hesitantly. She's gotten used to conducting transactions through moonlacing, but she knows that not everyone is comfortable talking openly about it.] I may also be able to help you with your other trouble as well...

[Her enthusiasm over food prompts a genuinely pleased and amused smile from Tifa. It seems she wouldn't have to work too hard to convince her to have the leftovers after all.]

I'm afraid what I'm offering will probably be quite simple compared to what you're imagining. But I've been told I'm a fairly good cook.

Of course. You're welcome to it. There's plenty to go around.

[She notices the continued hesitation and doesn't want to press the matter any further over the network. Perhaps when they meet in person it will be easier to broach the subject.]

I'm Tifa. And I think the easiest place to meet would be my house, but I understand if you're uncomfortable with that idea. I can bring the food anywhere you would feel comfortable meeting.
