Alright. I'll be right back. Stay put.
-Heads back to the room-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?{It's not about repaying. I'm just doing what feels right. As long as you try and do the same, you don't owe me squat.}
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?{The part where I was supposed to die came and went a long while back.}
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?{Can't remember a damn thing. Just pain at the start and pain at the end. Didn't even realise it wasn't the same pain.}
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?{I didn't hear or see anything. That's what scares me. I didn't learn any profound secrets of the universe or see people I knew were dead or saw my life flash like everyone says. There was just... nothing... God, there's nothing... maybe I just don't remember. Like a dream. I hope so.}

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?{...You didn't see anything? You weren't in the Lifestream? Maybe not the Lifestream, but your Planet should have one too.}
{It felt like I was... like I was floating. My chest didn't hurt. I wasn't sure if I had one. Aeris was there, and Zack. They said I still had to live, though, so they sent me back to the others. Back when there were others...}
{I could have imagined that, too. It sounds fake, like Tifa. And Aeris.}

... I think I'd rather believe there's something than assume there's nothing. No matter what it is.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?{But there is. I saw it. I fell into it while I was alive once. It wasn't peaceful, though. It was like the needles all over again, all those lives moving through you, with everything so loud it starts to tear off little bits of you.}
{I used to think, if I could manage it... maybe I could drown, and there would be just a little bit of them left in the Lifestream for me to meet.}
{Truth is, Cloud, I think you're well on your way. Some people go through their whole lives never really wondering if it could be better, or if they're even happy.}

...You should go, then. Just make sure, first.
