Log;

It was funny sometimes how a new day could change someone's view on a matter. Yesterday he'd been all but convinced that he'd been telling Squall the truth, and today he was having his own doubts about the matter. Probably one of those curses. That or he'd been totally out of his mind, and really once was quite enough that. Therefore it couldn't possibly have been him.

At least, not entirely him. Nope, blame was entirely the city's and he was standing outside the door to Squall's place well... because it wouldn't do to have his rival mope forever. That and he had a vague feeling he should try to put things right.

"Hey, Leonhart. You in there?" he called in the general direction of the door. Knocking wasn't real his style, after all.

"I don't know," Seifer answered with a grin. "Thought I might try my hand at getting you to stop moping."

Or maybe he was just going to hang around for the hell of it. It was sometimes hard to tell with him.

It sort of worked out the same either way... but maybe for Seifer, annoying Squall was a step up from having him mope around endlessly.

If so, then the situation was definitely showing some signs of improvement. Squall's voice was sharp with sarcasm. "Yeah? How were you planning on doing that?"

"I thought I'd work it out as I went along."

Hell, he'd really only showed up to explain the thing about the curse, and even then he hadn't had much of a plan to speak of. But he figured he could work something out later. Not like it hadn't worked before.

Squall didn't seem to be quite sure what to make of this. He fell silent for a long, increasingly awkward interval, watching Seifer with a steady, uncomprehending look on his face, until finally he sighed again. His shoulders dropped a little as the breath went out of him, as though in capitulation, as though he were realizing once again that there was just no use in arguing with Seifer about... anything.

"Fine," he said, "whatever. Knock yourself out. I'm gonna go get some training in."

Because if Seifer was determined to hang around annoying him into submission, then he might as well give in and get something productive done.

Seifer couldn't help but grin at that admission. Looked he'd managed to make a difference after all. How long it would last he couldn't say, but he didn't have the slightest bit of a problem with coming back and doing the whole thing all over again.

"Thinkin' about doing a bit of that myself."

Surely Squall wouldn't mind a bit of company?

Squall didn't really pause to look back at Seifer as he retrieved and shouldered his gunblade and started out of his apartment, turning off the lights as he went. "Not like I can stop you."

"Got that right."

The only one responsible for what he did these days was him. And sometimes the City, although he wasn't going to be mentioning that one. Instead, he'd just follow Squall on out. Sitting in a dark room wasn't exactly his idea of fun.
