Their was no way Mog was going to be able to explain this to Serah. Their was no way Serah woudnt blame him for whatever was going on here.
Had the Historia Crux gone out of whack? Had Lightining been hit with some stray spell when he wasnt looking? No if it was magic she woudnt be so confused. Well unless a confuse spell was wrapped in? ....his head was starting to hurt.
Wait wasnt Serah and Lightining's mother dead? Why was she asking where she was. She... would know that woudnt she? Unless...
She was younger now, had her memories reverted somehow? was the crux simply pranking her and popping out new versions of his friends older sister?
He didnt get played enough for this kupo...
Wait... he hadnt been payed in....!
Ok ok, not the time, had to find a way to calm down younger Light.. somehow.
"Kupo! I'm Mog, Serah ummm hmmm.. went out for a bit, she should be back... later? Kupo"
Mog was trying to be careful, if Light had regressed mentally him saying "oh she went off with you" would ether have Lighting thinkong he was crazy, or have her rush off to try and save Serah from what she would surely assume to be a stranger dressed as her. Or both.
...probaly both, ow. She was fully recovered to... Kupo, he could never catch a break.
"Your in a cabin kupo! Well... you were in an accident so you might not remebr fully right now, you've been recovering and Serah has been taking care of you, with my help of course Kupo!"
....Serah was going to freak out when she saw this. How was he POSSIBLY going to explain that it wasnt his fault? One second he was bringing Light her daily meal, the next her age was cut in like... half and she didnt even seem to recognize him!
to be honest the first thing he wanted to do was shout out his surprise. But he was a practiced moogle and knew thia would liley lead down the long road of him becoming a a pincushion by one of the Farron sisters, for different reasons .
"So, your really feeling recovered kup?""
...Oh Serah was going to make Mog meat out of him...

Leaving aside Serah's continued annoyance with whatever plans these gods had for them Serah was happy to hear her sister would Zell. Even if she was trying to stall until they left. Forcing her sister to confess her feelings woudnt do anything good, but she hoped she was able to before then. Seeing her sister with someone who loved her, would take care of her... It was a happy, dream of a thought.
On the upside it seemed their were things she could do to help her older sister. Getting supplies together huh... she used to help Maqui and the others gather things when she wasnt teaching her students, though admittedly it wasnt a focus during that time. Still if Lumina needed some help she was happy to give it. She was always glad to give what help she could, speciully to her sisters. Besides with all three of them together? they'd get this done in no time!
"Got it sis, we'll handle it together then... it shoudnt be to hard for all of us together"
Lumina signaled for her to follow to do just that, so that's what Serah did following close behind her sister to the support area. Serah had begun to prepare herself, though first Lumina had a question for her about Mog. Well of course he could, in fact she had experienced it first hand during her long journey through time. She wasnt sure if Lighting set that up or if it was just the connection they shared, but Mog was always able to track her down.
"Well of course he can sis wh..."
Serah blinked as what she could only describe as a ripple occured. At first she reached out in concern as her sister grabbed her head.
"Hey Claire are you o...""
She drifted off as said sister reverted to her more childlike state, causing Serah to blink in surprise, speechless in expression and voice for a moment as she took it all in.
"k...?"
Eveb her sister paused for a second, though Lumina tried to simply continue on with what they were doing Serah wave her hands in front of her in denial.
"Wait wait slow down. ummm are you messing with me sis? isnt this weird timing for a prank...?"
To illustrate her point she pointed all around Lumina's body. needless to say it was far more than just her voice that had changed!

Serah giggled playfully. They really did remind her of Snow and herself... well maybe with a tad more emberisment mixed in. Their was nothing wrong ws with that though, they WERE a young couple after all~ Claire tried a bit of a comeback, getting a huffy from her younger sister. It wasnt her fault she forgot where the kitchen was! She had intended to just come here and ask Claire, maybe eat lunch with or something. It was Claire that got all hot and heavy with Zell now!
"I was hungry ok! I WAS just going to ask where the kitchen was sis! besides... clearly you ended up wanting Zell to stay hmmm?"
The more they tried to defend themselves, the more cute it became to Serah. The happier it made her to see. Claire deserved someone to make her happy. Whether that be 'Lumina' or 'Lightining' She always believed that. Not because she needed that special someone, no way both sides of Claire could more than hold their own. No she wanted her to have someone for her own happiness. No matter what side of the person called Claire you spoke of the simple fact was that they had done so much for others, so much for their world... so much for her. That was why she deserved to have love, she deserved to have someone who could give her all the happiness she always deserved.
"I'm really happy for you sis... really... oh and you to of course Zell! If nothing else... I'm really happy this whole situation brought you two together!"
If this whole chaotic situation could do one thing right she was glad it made her sister happy. It really made Serah eveb bubbler than usual to see. She playfully rolled her eyes when Claire claimed that it would have been fu to keep her guessing longer. To which the younger simply gave her own rare mischievous grin.
"Oh is that what you were doing sis? Yesterday to hmmm?"
Claire had litterly sought Serah's advice on love, she just was going to escape that! She was going to get payback one hundred fold if Snow ever did show up, of that she was certain but... well until then she doubted Claire would be able to outplay her in the field of love teasing!
Though it woudnt be long until the sisters teamed up in their teasing of the poor poor hero boy. When Claire asked her opinion on hearing Zell's confession that michivious grinned returned, likely in tandem with her sister as she nodded her confirmation.
"Oh DEFENTLY, I'm the witness arent I? I have to see both parties parties their love~"
And that was just what the man did, well he did everything but directly say it, anyway, electing a delighted giggle Serah in the process and she cheered at the situation. They were so close together.. so happy... It was ironic that she, the younger sister kept having the term 'young couple' come to her mind but... it was fitting right? Besides Claire never really got to experience this sort of thing like she had, so she was sure it was the same for her!
Post by Serah Farron on Oct 2, 2020 10:59:56 GMT -6
Of course Light woudnt approve. That was what made it fun! What made it ironic to. She coudnt help but tease her sister a bit even as she sought to help her. How could she not? It was just one more way she could bond with her of course. But... she supposed that as fun as it was it was another way she could bond with her sister, in ways they hadnt been able to before. Life just hadnt allowed it at the time. But they could now right? Besides... the more Claire flustered the more clear it became that in her heart... she wanted to tell Zell that fact. Even as she tried to make it sound like it was better not to. It was ok though-Serah would be just have to play her role as matchmaker and help Claire see this through!
"Welll okkkk but you know sis, I doubt we can hide it forever... besides can you imagine how Light would react? hehe... But... really, maybe when your more comfortable...."
Claire had something in common with Light though, that she probaly woudnt admit. They both worried to much. About Serah herself speciully, but about everything to. They both worried about what could go wrong, what could happen. They worried about every little detail in a plan. That was Claire before and after everything. That was her sister, so she would do what she could to help her through
"I'm excited to see it then... to be honest I've pretty much been in the same area since I got here... to see a new place finally, I want to explore it! to see everything in it!"
The thrill of new things, things you hadnt seen before, things you might not get the chance to see again. People places things. She may hate that the gods of this place so selfishly plucked her from her world but that didnt mean she coudnt enjoy the people and places themselves right? She woudnt be so horrible as to blame it on the people or the animals or anything but the ones responisble, it just woudnt be right. So whole she was here... she would take everything and experience it. If she got back before the others were yanked here? Well she'd just have to tell them all about it!
"Zell doesnt like you that way huh...?"
Becoming more serious the girl simply shook her head. She could see it. See it both of them. Zell would do whatever it tooo to protect Claire, she was even going to bring Claire to his own world. His concern was her happiness-that was obvious.
"Most people dont offer to bring casual friends to their world sis, it's not like this is going into your neighbors house... for him, anyway. He clearly wants to make you happy.. He wants to protect you... K kw what I think? I think he jsut doesnt know how to say it. More the reason for you to! Well... when your comfortable enough to that is... You both have plenty of time"
If was meant to be said in a heartfelt way. They didnt have to rush this. As much as Serah desired them to get together RIGHT NOW. Love moved at it's own pace, as did the people who felt it. Zell and Claire didnt have to go by anyones speed but their own. It was the only speed that mattered.
On that matter though... the younger farron turned on her heel and got close to her sister, a warm smile on her face.
"But when you do, your little sister has all the experience you can need for a proper date! Being around each other... that's the most important part... feeling safe... do what makes you happy Claire, like I said you dont have to rush this, however you want to go. It's your destiny, your the only one that writes it!"
That was a cool sisterly thing to say right? Encouraging? She hoped so, it came from the heart but... Well she would just have to see!
A Tonberry came by. Most might find that a bit alarming but Serah? She had fought alongside Tonberrys and other monsters in her journey through time. As a result It didnt surprise her to see something like. Even more so from Serah who had maintained her power of Chaos. She jsut assumed Claire was using that power to do what she and Noel had already done before. She gave the being a smile and a wave as Claire scooped her up.
Post by Serah Farron on Sept 28, 2020 14:22:05 GMT -6
Ooooh Claire didn't back away, she seemed to hold Zell even tighter. They were so adorable together, she loved it! It seemed to that Claire knew she wasnt going to be able to hide it from her this time around, in fact she seemed to only get closer to Zell as a result. Serah coudnt help but delight in the fact. She was proud of her older sister..she really was. So she decided to let up on her teasing. Well... mostly anyway
"Oh I just came in at the time you declared your love sis~ So I just got to see this most intimate loving part! eeeeh!"
The younger farron's excitement was clear. Truth be told she had always imagined being able to do something like this with Claire. But as they got older that chance never came. More so when Claire became 'Lightining' The chance to do so seemed to jsut fade away with time, not even getting it on her end at first. But now? Now that dream was a reality! Now her sister had her own love, from what she could tell it seemed it was returned as well. It was such a beautiful moment... Zell was so cute as he panicked for a moment before relenting.
"Don't worry I wont tease you two .. to much"
She had a wide grin as she said that, hands crossed behind her back as she paced back and forth in thought.
"Word of advice though? Bedroom is the FIRST place family looks. Me and Snow neevrrrrrr had intimate moments in my room, Light would have found us in an INSTANT! Try hiding amongst a fireworks show or something, then you can have your moment and... have a wonderful time"
The memory of her own time with Snow, of the promise they made swam like a wave of joy through her mind. She wanted the same for Zell and Claire. She wanted them to be able to make beutiful memories together like they did... hopefully without all the world shattering interruptions. Finally she came to a stop, turned on her heel and leaned her body forward with a warm smile.
"Besides, you don't have to hide it from me rightttttt sis?"
Post by Serah Farron on Sept 26, 2020 13:22:23 GMT -6
Claire's crewmates had done their job well, Serah had settled in well. She was offered a tour of the place but declined for now, only asking where she could get some drinks or food if she needed it. A lot had happened in such a short time. She was reunited with Claire for one. It was so wonderful to be able to talk to her again. Even better for it to be on their own terms.... well... mostly. She got to see Zell again to! It seemed like his journey was going well. On top of all that... she was on an airship! A comfy one to! She thought her time here would be sent just taking care of her Light in there little hut with Mog if she was being honest. Not that she had any issue with that... but it was nice getting out like this. She coudnt deny her curiosity of what this world was like. She did want to see it. She wanted to enjoy her time in this world with her sisters. Of course with her new friends to!
Another thing she coudnt deny was the timing of he belly. She MAY have forgotten to eat again after their time in the restaurant. It wasnt her fault though! She had to go check on Light and Mog before they left, and then she got lost in speaking with Zell and Claire while they got ready... then she fell asleep ..
.....maybe she got a LITTLE distracted.
That's what led to her making her way towards the eating area. That had been the plan but on her way She... sort of forgot where the eating area was exactly. She DID however remember where Claire's room was. So she figured she would simply go there and ask her! So she instead made her way to do just that! After all that would be far better than just wandering around lost.
"Hey Claire do you remeber where..."
Serah paused, yeah she had just overheard something amazing. Soemthing that left her standing their stunned for a moment, the happy grin plastered on her face as she did so.
"I love you Zell"
She told him! she really really told him! HEr sisterly instincts were abuzz. Happiness swelled in her chest, she was proud of her older sister, she had pulled up the courage to do it! Sure Zell hadnt said it in turn, but know what he was doing? Not just hiding each other's hands no no. They were holding each other, nice and close... it was so sweet!
In fact if they hadnt already noticed her, they surely would when she began her sqees of delight at the situation. Before finally, in one (rather loud burst)
"I called it! I knew you two could do it! ahhh!"
Yeah
Their woudnt be any escaping it with Serah now... not in her mind at least.
Post by Serah Farron on Sept 26, 2020 11:52:33 GMT -6
"Maybe I should... hehe.. its ironic... at the time it hurt but... I guess she helped me and Snow grow closer to"
In the end Light had accepted Snow though, Serah was happy for that. It was funny when she thought about. She respected Snow and Claire (Light and Lumina) more than anyone else. They all held a determination she admired and aspired to show herself. She wanted to make them proud. While Serah wasnt one to... ahem seek out fights so t ok speaking the way Snow and Light tended to do, she supposed it was just... she longed to have the kind of decisiveness they possessed. They always knew what to do in any situation, always one what they had to do. Meanwhile Serah had the habit of often second guessing if she was making the right choice, going the right way... it happened quite a lot in her journey with Noel. She just... wishs he could know what to do like they did all the time.
Like now, Claire was certain in thinking Snow should be here where Serah questioned if she was right to. The confirmation made her smile, feeling a warmth inside. To have that confirmation that it wasnt just some selfish fantasy she wanted to come true... it was nice.
"I'll bring you by to see her sometime! Shes doing well, but seeing someone besides me and Mog all the time would help her I think , help you both for sure who knows... maybe we'll be bringing a certain someone with us. Oh I can ju ssr t imagine the look on Light's face when she realizes sis"
she felt sorta bad, but also coudnt help but giggle to herself at the idea of Light realizing that 'she' could like someone like Snow. Oh she was GOING to be there when it happened. She had to be.
Well assuming she could cupid enough to get them to admit it to each other anyway! Even as they both tried to deny it she could tell, that familiar red on her sister's face, it was the same way Snow made her feel. Warm inside, those thoughts... She stopped her teasing of her sister though, sisterly as it felt she wanted Claire to know she was right there for her during that-that she meant all the feelings she had given her. So instead she gave her a warm smile.
"I think love is a wonderful thing, the strongest bond there is... I mean.... look what it's done for us sis"
She could do this and more with Claire now. She seemed eager to have the 'girl talks' She was happy... that she would be able to spend time like that with her. That she could even give her advice... She could help her older sister now, like she helped her so much before.
"Thank you so much Claire! you have no idea how long I... ahem I mean, we have so much to talk about!"
And then Claire brought her into a comforting hug, one she returned with gusto. She was right she supposed. the Gods hadnt done anything yet other than summon their pieces to the boards. Maybe they wearnt all here, or maybe it just wasnt time yet. Could she say no to a god who summoned her? She wanted to. No good ever came of it. To her the gods were just... selfish beings.They only cared about how they wanted things to be, not how the people they affected wanted to live. That was her experience.
But worrying thoughts like that wer best saved for another time. Claire's comfort was enough to let her know things would be ok. Besides she was supposed to be helping her right now!
She admitted it... Serah's response to that was a warm nod. The teasing was done for something serious like this. Serah was in full sister mode now. When her sister suggested hiding it though she shook her head.
"And if he feels the same? You'll just be hiding how you feel from each other. You know what I think? All your light you've lived for others sis... for me, for mom... I think it's about time you lived for yourself.... really lived for yourself. You have a heart so...."
Post by Serah Farron on Sept 21, 2020 17:53:06 GMT -6
Serah's reaction to Claire' apology was simply simply to smile, and chuckle. If she thought about it Claire probaly helped Snow a lot more than she realized during that time. Snow only became more determined the more her sister had pushed back. It became his mission to prove to Light that he was in fact worthy of her sisters hand. Serah never had any doubts herself of course. She knew in her heart Snow would always be there for her-that night under the fireworks showed that to her clearly. Every step of the way she could count on Snow to stead by her side... even when her sister hadnt.
"You only made him more determined you know. Everytime you rejected him he only wanted to prove himself more sis. Besides it's not like you can fault me now huh?"
She held no Ill will of course. In the moment she had become upset of course but now everyone was happy. Was it wrong to want Snow here with them to? It felt cruel to wish for him to be pulled from there world again... but at the same time she would feel so much more at ease with her hero at her side.
"Speaking of selfish... is it wrong to want him here now...?"
The younger farron sighed, rubbing the back of her head in thought. She was clealry conflicted on the matter, she welcomed her sisters guidence on the matter.
In the next moment, if Serah had any drink in her mouth she would have spit it up in surprise. Claire was asking her about love. She became flustered, unsure how to react at first. Could she explain love right? would Claire understand what she meant if she did? Oooh what if she gave her bad advice?! What if....
....
She took a deep breath.
No, She could be strong. Like Fang, Like Claire, Like Light and Snow. She could help to, like her friends did so well. They all excelled at something. She could help to, all she had to do was speak from her heart.
So she steeled herself and that, was just what she did.
"For me... love is when you look into their eyes and you feel each others warmth. It's when you can see anywhere as home as long as your with that person... When you can feel one of your greatest joys is just standing beside each other trusting each other... no matter what. Love is your heart resonating with the person you care about so deeply... stronger than any l'Cie Mark"
She finished her explanation, hands over chest and eyes closed, slowly opening as finished. That was what she truly belived-she hoped it could help her sister figure out her feelings.
"Claire Snow littlery found a way to force himself into the time stream for me to look for Light, theirs nothing wrong with being clingy... it just means you like them that much more, that your more than willing to do what you can for each other... that you want... to be at his side..."
Though she spoke as if she was talking about Zell, it was probaly clear she was thinking about Snow in that moment. a
Serah gained her own grin when Claire mentioned secrets about Light. Oh it was always good to have counters! Speciully when Light messed with Snow. Light would probaly be shocked to hear a comeback like that! ....If she timed it right... probaly.
"Oh we HAVE to discuss them sometimes sis! Girl talk! we can have sister girl talk! Just the two of us"
Serah herself had no knowledge of the gods of thia world, other than the snipit of info Zell had given her. Though that already didnt give her much of a liking for them. It seemed they were no different here than her world. Using others to fight there battles, to exercise their will. Sure, it was in the name of protecting this world... or at least that was what the god Zell met seemed to want. But.... "I might send you back" Using him. Likely using everyone they could, that was how she felt and it bothered her. She didnt want to be a pawn in another gods game.
She just wanted to live her life, with the ones she loved. She was so tired of these 'games' Noel's Yuel... and all the others... Caius... Noel... Light.. Hope... Snow... Even Claire. So many people suffered. So many felt the scars even as they moved forward. When the Gods played everyone suffered.
She was just so tired of it.
"Its just... more of the same, again and again sis... I dont want to dance to the tune of the gods anymore... We broke free to live on our own terms... I'm not eager to serve gods who only care about themselves again"
Serah nodded, then smiled at Claire's final though. Of course she had her own heart and soul. No matter what anyone else said Claire was Claire. She was herself.
"I belive you do sis. With all my heart I believe you do"
Post by Serah Farron on Sept 17, 2020 14:56:39 GMT -6
Today was a roller coaster of emotions. Both joyful and sad. But this was one that made her happy. Since they were little Claire had insisted on being the one who did all the work. She put it all on herself to the point of distancing herself from others as much as she could. Even her own sister. It was why hearing those words made her happy. She had seen it once, of course. In their peaceful new world. But hearing it was something else. It broke through whatever sadness she had been feeling, it warmed her heart. It filled her with determination to not let her sister down. She was strong new-She could stand at her side, even protect HER now! She would do just that. She nodded in confirmation.
"We can support each other, me and you... even Light! sis thank you... hearing that... yes you can always rely on me!"
Was it weird for her to be proud of her sister for this revelation? She was the younger sister so that should be the other way around right? She didnt have much time to contemplate that though-not with Claire making the situation VERY embarrassing VERY fast! The younger farron flailed once more as she moved back and shook her head as she blushed in emberesiment.
"Don't say things like that Claire! do you relize how akward that sounds?! Though... You know that means you two were hating on someone who's like our dad hehe~"
Serah's only memories of her father were what their mother and Claire herself told her as she grew up as, Serah herself had only recently been born when he passed away. But she recognized how difficult it kuat have been for both Claire and their mother. Her mom had to cope with the loss of the man she loved, Claire with the loss of her father-all while trying to raise her and keep her happy. It mad ether wonder... had she thanked them enough? She hoped so.
Serah grinned leaning in with a smile when Claire denied it being love. Rather confidently she shook head and giggled.
"The only obvious thing is how bad you are at hiding it sis~ Who would have thought my sister, lovestruck~ Its cute really! And even better it's with the same kind of heroic guy you knocked me for liking hehehe"
It was funny in it's own way. But Serah was happy to, it was like she thought before. Claire deserved someone like Zell. Someone who could keep her safe when even she coudnt, but also someone who could make her happy. The two lovebirds might be oblivious themselves, but she was calling it! I mean Zell was LITTLERY going to take Claire to his world. You didnt just do that for some random buddy right? As for the her apology Serah simply nodded and let it go... for NOW. It would be a different story if she got Claire in antics herself!
She became thoughtful when the subject came back to Lighting and the subject of her and Lumina becoming one. Now that she thought about it once she had become free of the parasite and woke up Light had in fact listened to her instructions regarding her recovery, they were even able to talk for a bit, just the two of them. Light put her faith in Serah to make sure she helped her recover.
"Y..your right... she did"
She began to pick up as Claire continued her explanation. It lifted a weight off her chest to hear Claire say the future her was well and good within Lighting. She gave a smile, a bright loving smile to Claire as she said those words.
"If you ask me, it seems like the Gods really like messing with the Farron sisters, woudnt you agree Claire?"
Some with care, most with malice in one way or the other. The common theme was underestimating them-it was never could idea to underestimate the will of a Farron sister!
She frowned, all this timeline confusion was getting to her. It made her mind a mess!
"This is all so confusing... does that mean you can talk like we did? What if the gods brought you seperate of me, giving you form themselves? Gosh this is why their so confusing.... theirs no way that god could have created a simple pure world when they make more weird decisions than humans ever do!"
Post by Serah Farron on Sept 14, 2020 13:21:22 GMT -6
Serah smiled brightly. Claire didnt break promises. No matter the form that held true. No matter what people thought of her that held true. That's why if Claire had been trying to trick her or simply make her not worry she would have avoided that word. But she promised, so she knew it to be true. It made her happy to, that she could finally help her sister. She could stand by Light, she could stand by Claire. If need be she could defend Claire! She could do... What they had always done for her.
"Of course you can count on me! I'm right here by your side Claire. Together we can do anything, that's the sisterly bond don't you think?"
Serah giggled at her sisters claim she could find Vanille even better than Fang. Well that was hardly fair was it? Sense becoming Lumina she kinda had an leg up over anyone else. Mix that with the charisma she absolutly drained out of Lightining when they split and boom, you had a cocktail of tricks for Claire to use however she needed. Serah used to be part of that cocktail, but they were split up now. Unless past her was still in Claire and...
"Oh I can introduce you! next time hes around anyway..."
Nope, nope nope she was not going down that confusing line of thinking, the Historia Crux had given her enough confusion thank you very much.
"To be honest I agree.. I was hoping I was the only from our world here when I came here.... but then I met Fang again... and then Light... I'm not sure how to feel about this world right now"
She grimaced, then shook her head.
'It let me meet new people lile Noctis and Zell but... this world also birthed the things that led to Lightings suffering, to that evil creature that twisted her into something she wasnt"
She still hadnt been able to go into detail with Claire about what happened that day. About the sadness she felt, the anger she felt towards that creature. About almost losing her sister forever. She didnt know how to. She wasnt certain she wanted to. It wasnt that she didnt trust Claire. The memory was just... to painful, a fact that registered on her face just from little bit she had already recounted.
Though Claire's declaration did bring a light smile to her face. Tears came to her eyes for a moment, the emotions begining to well up inside her.
"T..thank you... I'm sorry I dont mean to make you feel bad.. I... you have nothing to make up, I'm just happy we can be together"
She cracked a giggle through her emotional state. Just like Light huh? Nah. Not even back then was Claire the same as Light. She had made sure of that after all. She wiped the tears from her eyes and smiled a moment.
'Your not the same as Light sis. But that's the whole point right? You were that missing part of her. But now your simply you... That's how I see it. You both bair the name of Claire Farron, your both my big sister. But your also 'Lumina' and 'Lightining' right? Your each your own person"
She complelty belived that now. She had been with Lighting after all, as well as Claire. They could eschew be their own person and Claire free from the rules of their world... didnt have to do anything she didnt want to. She didnt have to go back to Light. She didnt have to take orders. She didnt have to go back.
.....
The world doesnt need two Claire Farrons
Says who?
She sighed, before answering the part of her question regarding Zell Serah listened to the story her sister told intently. Even in the emotional state she had gotten into a smirk crossed her face the more Claire gave her.
"He probaly doesnt know it yet... he seems hardheaded like that, but going by that story... I'd say yes. you both seem like such a lovely young couple to me... ahhh love.. oh but.."
One would not he mistaken for doubting the emotional state of Serah with the stern position she then took with Claire, putting her hands on her hips and giving her a 'meanie miss farron' glare like she would her students.
"No more putting stuff on others! speciully what I assume to be a CRIME sis! I'd hate to have to ground you..."
One would also be forgiven for thinking that Serah was the older sister in that moment... the dynamic likely flipped on its head.
But then the emotions building in her broke. Like a floodgate tears game out of her eyes with Claire's question. 'Lumina' wasnt in there future. Or at least not as she was. They became one again. Lumina returned to Lighting. She wasnt entirely sure what that meant happened to Claire as a whole. for all she knew it meant 'Lumina' was gone altogether in that moment, returning what she held to Light.
"O..oh sorry C...claire I umm... seem to be having a bit of memory trouble myself I... dont remeber, I'm sure its h..happy though, with that jerk of a god gone now, your right... about that"
She didnt know so she coudnt say. She didnt want to say what she did know for fear of hurting her. What was she supposed to say? You went back to Light? Your ether gone or fully merged with the part of you that split you apart in the first place? She didnt know how to explain it. She didnt know if she could. But she coudnt lie to her. She sighed heavly. Claire woudnt buy that though, by now she was probaly already calling her out on it. So Serah dug deep in her. She coudnt explain it, but she could... as painful as it was for her to do so make it clear to Claire what happened.
"You did what you tried to do before, when you learned Light was hurt... you both... became Claire, whole I... I'm sorry I dont know fully... how th..that went"
She was an emotional wreck now, clealry that had affected her, Lumina being back now, being with her bringing all those emotional to the surface. It was no fault of Lighting of course. She was sure they had both agreed it.
But not knowing the results of it... made it the hardest thing she could try and tell the person who went by 'Lumina'
