[image description: An illustration of an outside scene, with wild bushes growing up in the background. Sephiroth stands straight and startled, hands lifted up away from his waist. He wears a long cape and casual clothes, with gloves. His left hand– the prosthetic one– is covered in cuts and slashes. Glued to his side is a furious, scowling Aerith. She is gripping Sephiroth in an extremely tight hug, glaring towards the camera in protective fury. She is small in comparison physically, but her determination burns. End image description]

Day 18: Paranoia
“Well, we all know where to avoid, right?” Genesis had said, spreading out the world map from his library across Angeal’s table.
“Kalm,” Angeal and Sephiroth had dutifully chorused.
“What?” Zack blinked. Looked between the three of them with his visible eyebrow furrowed. “Why? What’s in Kalm?”
“Generally, Shinra spies waiting to pick up anyone who’s trying to escaped from Midgar.”
“What, seriously?”
“Seriously.” Sephiroth smirked. Chuckled. “Never go to Kalm.”
“Boring town anyway.” Genesis said flippantly. “What’s the plan?”

“So,” Aerith said slowly. “Camping trip?”
“To start,” Zack replied happily, wandering towards the wall beside her. “But again, don’t know when or if we’ll ever come back. So if you don’t want to come—”
“Zack. I told you. I’m coming.” She threaded her arm through his, stepping a little closer to his side. “Now where are your big scary Soldier friends?”
