The saying usually goes, "Life's a bitch, and then you die."
Upon reflection, even counting the really good parts (Aerith, Cloud, even Sephiroth and Angeal before the former went crazy and the latter turned into a... better not to think about that) I've gotta agree. Life really is one hell of a bitch.
I think I did good, though. There were a lot of bad things, a few great things, but all in all, I can die knowing I finished with a job well done. So now it's time to lay back, relax, and return to the lifestream.
Funny how the lifestream feels a lot like a cold stone floor.
...Okay, I'm not imagining it. Something isn't right. I'm pretty sure the lifestream does not equal lying supine on cobbles.
And that I shouldn't be able to just open my eyes like I've done every day, but I am and it's weird and something just is not right.
I sit up. Like, normal sitting up. This can't seriously be the afterlife. Nothing I've ever read or heard said anything about the lifestream being a room in what looked like a really old part of Nibelheim.
Looking around, I can't find anything familiar, and the only thing worth notice is the little table with the paper, and a fancy pen that someone must've cast Float on.
State your full name.
I reach for the pen, but it floats out of my range. Well, I guess answering out loud is just as good... "Um, Zack Fair."
1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
I shrug. "Anything that doesn't come from the Shinra trooper cafeteria. That's the best part about SOLDIER, we don't have to eat that nasty processed Chocobo Bill's Chococheese."
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
"Eeeh..." I scratch my head a little. I know I look embarrassed, but it's kind of hard not to, in this case. "I don't like to kill unnecessarily. If it's up to me, they both live, as long as they don't force my hand."
3. What time is it where you are?
"I dunno, does the lifestream measure time?"
4. If you were Albus Dumbledore returned from the dead, which member of the Order of the Phoenix would you sexually harass? How would you harass them? If you are Albus Dumbledore, please answer as if you were Sirius Black.
Wow, these questions just get progressively weirder. "I... uh, I'm not really qualified to answer that... I wouldn't harrass anyone, but I'm not gonna pass up looking at a pretty girl..."
5. If you are pushing to be in:
A. Slytherin - please state the clever, witty name of the bar in which you bartend, in the dark.
Sounds like the guy from the Sector Five slums, who was building the bar. I like the name I thought up for him last time, so, "Seventh heaven! A little piece of heaven in... wherever this is." I'm starting to not be so sure that this is the lifestream at all.
B. Gryffindor ā Debate whether Harry should ultimately end up married to Fred or George. Use examples from a variety of world mythologies to bolster your argument.
Oh man, marriage. I've never had a chance to think of that before (not really, being in SOLDIER pretty much guarantees a short lifespan, and in my situation... well.) "Hey, whoever Harry loves, that's who he should be with. Spending your life with someone you love shouldn't be sneezed at, you know?"
C. Ravenclaw ā You guys are supposed to be smart. Explain why my desk is inundated with paperwork at all times, even though Iām constantly disposing of it.
I laugh. Thankfully, SOLDIER never has to do paperwork. Unless you're an overachiever like Sephiroth, but I'm not about to say that to his face. "Outsource it to the Turks, that's what we do."
D. Hufflepuff ā Prove you are not useless.
This time, I know I'm grinning. "I'm a SOLDIER first class, which is pretty much the definition of Not Useless where I come from. Sure, I'm mostly just the muscle for Shinra, but you can't have a brain if you don't have muscles to defend it, am I right?"
6. Offer a bribe to the members of this community so that they will not squib you. Items used in bribery do not necessarily have to belong to the person offering the bribe. Do not threaten us rather than offering a bribe. A threat indicates you either don't really want to be here, or don't have enough sense to answer the question properly. The hat will automatically squib you, regardless of other votes, if you do.
Aw geeze, there's the kicker. I don't have the Buster Sword - of course, Cloud's taking good care of it now; I know I can trust him with it - all I have are a few left over potions, my mastered materia, and a little pressed flower I keep inside my armor. But that one, that's mine. As long as I can keep a little part of Aerith with me, this weird ol' afterlife shouldn't be so bad.
"Not much to offer, but these health potions should come in handy to anyone who has some minor scrapes and bumps that need taking care of."

no subject
Date: 2010-09-24 04:18 pm (UTC)"I'm used to being ignored," I say, deliberately forcing thoughts of Angeal, Sephiroth, even Cloud from my head. "The game is fun, but if you never win..." frustrating. I change up the pattern a bit, pulling and stroking to see how he likes it.
no subject
Date: 2010-09-24 04:23 pm (UTC)He tried to kick his brain into gear and reached to toy with one of Zack's nipples. "Oh," he breathed, remembering that they were having a conversation, "you're like me then..." He hadn't meant to say it, it just kind of slipped out and he couldn't be bothered trying to explain it away.
no subject
Date: 2010-09-26 01:52 pm (UTC)I slide my hand down his cock, trying to mimic the way he'd sucked me off. "Someone kept you frustrated?" I understand the feeling. It... blows.
no subject
Date: 2010-09-26 02:03 pm (UTC)He couldn't help but rock into Zack's hand a little. It was nice. Arching his back a little he opened his eyes a little to watch Zack, reaching behind his to drag his hand up his thigh until he reached cock, which he stroked and toyed with lightly, wanting to bring it back to life.

Date: 2010-09-27 12:39 pm (UTC)He kissed him for a while and then, when he thought Zack ready, he pulled back only enough to be able to speak. "Ready?" he murmured, shifting so that he could run the tip of Zack's cock against his ass.

Date: 2010-10-03 01:37 pm (UTC)"Hah...harder," he moaned, wanting to test the boy. He liked having control, and this kid gave it in droves, but he could feel the strength in him and wondered. He was nothing if not a curious creature.
no subject
Date: 2010-10-03 01:43 pm (UTC)And I'm so into giving him whatever he wants that in the back of my head it feels kind of pathetic, but if it means we both get a great fuck out of it and walk away happy, I'm okay with that.
no subject
Date: 2010-10-04 02:41 pm (UTC)"Zah...Zack!" He groaned, biting his lip and reaching up to tweak one of those tempting nipples again, playing with it which he forced himself back on Zack's cock, meeting him thrust for thrust.

Date: 2010-10-09 01:23 pm (UTC)When his whole body seemed to declare it was time for him to come though, he was almost sad it hadn't lasted as long. Whimpering slightly, he bucked in Zack's hand and cried out one last final time, eyes flying wide as he came, spilling himself and loosing all sense of rhythm.
no subject
Date: 2010-10-09 01:41 pm (UTC)I flop back on the desk, hands still glued to Kuronue's thighs, and try to get my breath back enough to beg for another go once I'm out of this room.

Date: 2010-10-11 09:20 am (UTC)"See? Easy," he panted, caressing Zack's sides.

Date: 2010-10-11 12:13 pm (UTC)"Soooo," I say after a minute, grinning up at the ceiling. "Does this mean I get voted in to the Hot Gay Sex House?"
Vote: Slytherin
Date: 2010-10-11 12:16 pm (UTC)Slytherin practically seemed to be the Hot Men house, and more often than not the population at Hogwarts seemed to be more interested in cock than anything else. And, you know, had Kuronue. And Yukimura.
"Honestly I don't think there's more than one or two straight men here, so most of the houses are full of hot gay sex." He chuckled and pressed his cheek against Zack's shoulder.

Date: 2010-10-13 11:26 am (UTC)"I bet he's wonderful," I say, meaning more personality than sex-wise, but they're both considerations.
Re: Vote: Slytherin
Date: 2010-10-13 01:31 pm (UTC)"Have you ever been in love?" he asked, honestly curious.
