If we live through all of this, then I'll make it up to you next year.

[oathshackledbird]

[Diarmuid gently taps Waver on the nose.]

No 'if.' When. I fully expect you to keep that promise. I want a good celebration next year.

[fionnuisce]

Anything you say. I'll gladly give you anything you could possibly ask for.

[oathshackledbird]

[Diarmuid leans in to lightly kiss Waver on the nose.]

I know you will. Why do you think I will be looking forward to it?

[fionnuisce]

I'll have to make sure to live up to your expectations.

[oathshackledbird]

I'm not worried. You always do.

[fionnuisce]

You terrible, terrible flatterer.

[Waver shook his head, leaning against Diarmuid with a slight smile.]

[oathshackledbird]

Hmm...

[Diarmuid wraps his arms back around Waver.]

You know, I think I prefer 'Idiot' to 'Flatterer.' Just saying...

[fionnuisce]

Very well, idiot. If that's what you prefer, who am I to argue?

[oathshackledbird]

[Diarmuid frowns slightly, though there is good humor in his eyes.]

You know you didn't have to agree quite so quickly...

[fionnuisce]

Fate forbid I argue with you, right?

[oathshackledbird]

If you don't argue with me now and then I am going to start worrying about your health...

[fionnuisce]

Hm...another time when I've the energy to spare, I think. I'll be sure to pick a fight with you over something else.

[oathshackledbird]

Well...as much as I hate to wait, I guess I will just have to do that.

[Diarmuid laughs, resting his head again Waver's.]

We are both such idiots...

[fionnuisce]

We are. I suppose that makes us an even better match, don't you agree?

[oathshackledbird]

I would say it makes us even more perfect for each other, and if I can only have one perfect thing in my life, I am quite happy with it being this.

[Diarmuid pauses suddenly, unease filling his eyes.]

Is...it really okay for me to let her go like this? She needs so much help, but all I do just makes things worse. Maybe if we had met differently... Maybe if I hadn't been sick...

[He sighs and shakes his head.]

Sorry, I'm doing it again. It's just...so much of my time here has been dedicated to getting stronger and to learning to stand on my own next to someone--next to you--instead of behind. I...don't think she likes that. It might sound weird, but I think she needed me to need her to prove something about our love had been true. She acted so differently toward me when I was sick...

But, I don't need her now. Not like she wants me to need her...

[fionnuisce]

...I'm not going to tell you what the right choice here is, mostly because I don't know. And I certainly can't read her mind to tell you what kind of things she might be thinking. All of this is something only you can decide for yourself--deciding who you love and what you want to do about it isn't any of my business.

[oathshackledbird]

[Diarmuid shakes his head, laughing sadly. He then pulls Waver close, burying his head against the magus' shoulder.]

Of course it's your business. You're the one I love. Everything that is my business is yours too. But, I take back the question. It isn't a fair one to ask you, especially when I have made my choice. I just am looking for someone to tell me it was the right one for sure. That's not how the world works...

[fionnuisce]

I don't know if it was or wasn't, Diarmuid. [Waver hugged him tightly, shaking his head.] Things can't really be so simple, I'm afraid. Just know...you'd have my support no matter who or what you decided on. As long as you're happy, that's all that matters to me.

[oathshackledbird]

I know. The world isn't so simple as black and white anymore. I've been fighting that ever since I came back into the world...

[Diarmuid sighs, shutting his eyes.]

But your support means everything to me. As long as we are together, I will be happy. No matter what we are facing. I am just glad to be with you.

[fionnuisce]

And I'm not going anywhere. You can be certain of that.

[oathshackledbird]

I know you aren't and I think after that...thing with Sephiroth...

[Distaste practically drips from his words as he says that name.]

...we know I am not planning on going anywhere either. We really are stuck with each other.

[fionnuisce]

What a terrible fate for me to suffer. How will I ever survive?

[oathshackledbird]

You're smart. I know you will figure it out. I have faith in you!

[Diarmuid grins at Waver, nudging him lightly.]

Super genius, remember?

[fionnuisce]

How could I forget, with someone so reliable to remind me?
