OOC: For Rinoa! Because I'm gonna make one for my every journal, just like for my SB! Mitsunari and MCU! Loki.

So, if we have anything to continue and the captcha is threatening to slow us down, or just for any other reason, here you go, if you wanna. /ooc

"Maybe so. But I love that scenery. It's our place, too, after all."

And there's still a lot they can do, while she's getting the hang of controlling all her powers as a Sorceress safely.

It doesn't have to be all a chore, after all, Rinoa's certain of it. Definitely not, now that they're finally together! There's so much she wants to tell Squall, still. Though, he might get embarassed but it all, at first.

But. It's nice, seeing him get embarassed. It's definitely all worth it! At least, that's how she feels right now. And she wishes to feel like this for a long time. Forever, maybe.

Oh, now that's slightly embarassing even for her. She smiles softly, looking up at the sky.

"You're thinking too far ahead," he says after watching her for a while. It's teasing really but this sort of normalcy is nice. Something he hasn't really experienced in a very long time. "Timber is still controlled by Galabadia. We can't let our guard down there."

[angelowing]

"It's alright, Squall, I'll be careful."

[silentnarration]

He feels like adding more cautionary words but stops when he wonders if he'd be pushing it too far. That and he'd be the one overthinking their future.

Besides, this is only the first leg of their journey. Surely nothing can go wrong right off the bat.

At least that's what he thinks until they enter Balamb and three Galbadian soldiers appear to be ganging up on an old woman and a young child hiding behind her.

ahhh, I never got gmail notif here!!

Rinoa immediately looks ready to do something about this scene, but she'll glance at Squall to make sure he's with her on this.

no worries

He grips his gunblade. The desire to do something is there but he doesn't want to ruin their cover so early into the trip. The decision is made for him when in the middle of their heated 'discussion', one of the soldiers push the woman hard enough to knock her onto the ground.

He moves, stepping between the the soldiers and the old woman, his gunblade pointed downwards for now but very much a visible threat.

good Squall, did the thing faster than Rinoa who's gearing up to it :D

[angelowing]

Rinoa runs there, and stands right beside Squall, getting her weapon ready, though not quite yet, Squall, you're fast!

However, Angelo's at her heels, so, there is that.

"Stop it!" she shouts, to the soldiers.

pfft

[silentnarration]

That's because he knows she'd move after that and he just prefers to put himself as the more prominent threat first. He'll... probably let Rinoa do all the talking though. He's the muscle here. For now. Just don't antagonize the soldiers too much, Rinoa.

"Stay out of it, girl! We're here on official Galbadian business." Typical soldier bravado, along with the threatening pointing of weapons.

:D

[angelowing]

"No, I won't! What did the poor woman ever do to you?!"

And she'll now be readying a spell.

Meanwhile, the Soldiers are seemingly wondering whether to attack the mouthy girl already.

[silentnarration]

"Just arrest them already!" One of the soldiers finally cried. Squall just sighs and rolls his eyes as all three step forward. Two with guns and one with a sword. He leaves the gunners to Rinoa and steps forward to make quick work of the sword user.

[angelowing]

Rinoa quickly hits one of the soldiers armed with guns with a Confusion. That's what he gets for being so rude!

Now she has to decide what to do next - especially as another soldier shoots at her, and she barely manages to avoid it. Fortunately, she dodges - barely - just in time.
