Broadcast: Yes
Action: Selvin-9
When: Early January


[Video comes on, but instead of showing somebody’s face it’s pointed at a sign for a specifically popular snowboarding and skiing lodge on Selvin-9.] If anybody’s heading over here to snowboard or something, I put up some obstacles on the south slope, off the path, for more of a challenge. Here-

[The shot moves over to the snow, where a person-sized sloppy approximation of a chubby snow moogle sits.] These guys. And some giant icicles, thanks for the materia Aerith. Anyway if you’re up for it and you wanna get timed or something, I got prizes. Nothing cool but like hot chocolate tins and junk like that.

[Okay now Cloud’s walking so there is an unflattering angle of his face occasionally as he trucks through the snow to get his own snowboard.] -oh right, I wanted a general opinion on something. What’s, uh, what’s the best birthday gift you ever got? [Specifically a question for girls but he’s afraid he’ll be REALLY obvious if he says that.]

Oh, but to answer your question, not at all. I know first hand how capable you are, especially when you kept Freyja and I safe on the planet. I'm only offering suggestions because it seems like a chance to help you in return, which I don't imagine myself getting many opportunities to do.

Besides, we're crew mates. Why wouldn't I want to lend you a hand?

You don't need to help me in return, it's not like I did anything special.

I can handle this myself.

[It's not like she's hurt by his words, but Kaname finds herself a little saddened by his attitude. Still, if it's what he wants.]

All right, I'm sorry I pressed this issue. I'll forget you mentioned anything. Just wish her a happy birthday from me when it arrives.

[She offers a small smile before turning off the comm.]
