Three Final Fantasy characters walk into a bar

WHO: Squall, Seifer, Cloud, ??
WHAT: Trying out weapons
WHERE: Workshop outside the city
WHEN: Sep 3
WARNINGS: Fight! Potentially blood and injury

Holding a gunblade in his hand again, even if it's just blade without the gun, is exhilarating. Doesn't matter what else Squall doubts about his own future, he won't give this up anytime soon. Plus, it's great stress relief from the hellish invasion of memories just weeks ago.

There's a lot of things making this fun. One, he's never fought alongside Seifer before. Two, Cloud is... remarkably powerful, way beyond what his stature and figure would indicate. Three, the prototype gunblade is a great teaser to what Seifer is going to eventually make.

He falls back to stay out of range of Cloud's buster sword (how is he even wielding that so easily?), eyes flicking over to Seifer to see what he's doing. It's strange having to flip his thoughts from how to counter Seifer's attacks to how to complement it, but all those years of fighting each other is working in their favor now.

He runs in to swipe at an opening from the other side. He's precision and skill even without the trigger component. It's clear he's treating the sparring session like a real battle. Seifer's taught him that much.

"Yours sure has," Seifer quips helpfully. "Always knew you had a hard head. Worse than Chicken-Wuss." Still offering nothing but sass. This is Seifer's way of worrying, trying to get a rise out of Squall to make sure he's okay. Except... he really doesn't seem okay at all. Frowning slightly, eyes darting over to Cloud in a brief betrayal of worry, Seifer moved over to go settle down on the floor beside Squall.

He'll tend his injury there, then, if it'll make Squall calm down. "I'll be fine." He insists. Truth be told... he doesn't really want magic cast on him. It bothers him. A lot. Frankly he's a little freaked out by magic anymore. It's pretty embarrassing to admit.

"He's right, you might wanna lay down. Don't puke on me." Seifer wouldn't be very amused if that happened.
