What? No. I just thought you might like a chance to see her again.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?You'd say hello, and you'd talk a while, and... I don't know. It's up to you.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?Well, yeah, we wouldn't stay around forever.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?It's the same every time. They come here, or we go somewhere, and they either die, or leave. That's how it works.
This scarf was Ryoji's. Someone broke his neck. I didn't even think he could die, since he wasn't really a human.
There's Samantha... and Sarah — she was my wife, or... or we thought she was, anyway, and this girl we thought was our daughter, Marcy. They're gone now.
Tifa's gone. Tifa's been gone for years and years. Tifa's not ever, ever coming back. Denzel probably grew up and got married and had kids and died and then his kids got married and had kids and died.
Aven left. I warned her but she didn't listen. He's gone now. So is Gordon. And Cole, and Blues, and Shinji, and my fake parents that boy made for me... and Turin, last week.
Lancelot came back but he doesn't remember me anymore. Maybe that's for the best.
All gone.
I'm never going through that again anymore. Not if I don't have to.
MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon Alchemist-You definitely said something wrong now-
-Sounds panicked now- Please don't go. I'm sorry. I —
-Reluctantly tears himself away from Jack's side to face him- What do you want to do? You should be happy, too. Maybe you didn't want me touching you like that.
MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon AlchemistCloud, I just... don't want the burden of being your only shot at happiness. There's more out there. And I'll help you find it.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?-There's that word again. "burden"-
-He looks like you just punted his baby out the window or something-
...I — I-I understand. It's not fair to you. I understand that. I'm sorry.
...
...Please, just say it once. You don't even have to mean it. Just once.
MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon Alchemist-Is looking increasingly upset himself-
Cloud, I want to be with you.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?I... need some space.
-He gets up and starts to walk away-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?I — please, just — just wait. I can be better. I'll do whatever you want me to. We can both be happy. I won't be a burden, I promise. I'm better now.
Please don't make me be alone again. Wasn't I good? Didn't I do good? You said — you said I was — y-you said —
-Hahaha he's crying like a primadonna bitch now. Good thing you got out of that while you could-
MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon Alchemist-He refuses to look back, forcing himself to keep walking-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?-He walks inside, sits on the couch and buries his face in his hands-
-Damn it-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?-Pulls his knees up to his chest and hugs himself, trying to take in Jack's scent and relive the sensation of being near someone warm that cares you exist for the glorious two minutes that it lasted-
-And trying to ignore the fact that it could have lasted so much longer than two minutes if he hadn't ruined everything ever again-

I don't belong there.
And... she'd get mad if...
...
Maybe she doesn't even remember me anymore.
