"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Yuffie was aware that she was being called out on her claims, but she never claimed to be the OFFICIAL leader right? She just told people she was 'basically' the leader, which was totally a different thing. Although she was doing that less-so lately since Celes had threatened to kick her out. "Oh, like, I'm not THE leader, I just, mean I've got like, the most experience. I helped save the world and everything!" Yuffie explained, throwing a few air punches to show off how much butt she could kick. "But, uh, Celes yelled at me so I can't tell people I'm the leader anymore," she added after a moment, looking a little more sheepish.
She then went into a lot of information about the Knights of the Round and Bahamut, and Yuffie stood there, blinking, processing it. Okay, so they sounded bad in her world. But that wasn't the case for Yuffie! She supposed they COULD be bad, if used the wrong way, but that wasn't the point either. "They're just summons in my world," Yuffie shrugged. "Big powerful things you call in to help you kick butt. I mean, Bahamut is still a dragon, and then there's Neo Bahamut and Zero Bahamut who are even dragonier dragons, but they just show up and blast a bad guy for you. They're not like, anything to worry about," Yuffie explained. And then she paused. "Well, I guess unless the person you're fighting has them..." she added thoughtfully after a moment.
"Ohhh, you could MAKE materia?" Yuffie asked eagerly. "We always suspected Shinra was capable of that, and we knew that materia isn't just naturally occurring, but that's so cool! I don't suppose you can do it here? Make me some super special kick butt materia?" Yuffie questioned, a big grin on her face.

The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Some people might have thought that Zack admitting he was wrong about Shinra and had just not been able to see it would have been a major victory for Yuffie, but Yuffie didn't think so. Because of course she was right. The sky was blue, materia was great, and Yuffie was right. Duh. But it still felt good to hear him say it, and she just grinned back. "It's okay, not everyone can be as smart as me," she said, hands on her hips, cocked to the side with a confident grin. "You shouldn't feel bad about it," she said in a tone that suggested he should totally feel bad about it and realise how smart and amazing she was.
He went on to talk about how she had basically helped train him, and she grinned to that too. "I helped train you?" she asked, mischievous smile already forming. "Well, in that case, my services aren't free. I take payment in gil or materia," she said, holding out her hands for the payment that clearly would never arrive, grin remaining fixed in place as she smiled up at him.
"That's what I said!" she said quickly when Zack agreed that losing memories was bad. "Or at least, that's what I THOUGHT about saying if there had been anybody around to listen to me," she added after a moment. "But don't worry if you're scared, Zack! I'm here, and I totally kicked Sephiroth's butt twice already!" she said, throwing several punches to show off her ninja moves. "Well, once I was with Cloud and the team and once he just sort of walked away, but obviously because he was scared," she said chirpily. "So I'm counting it," she grinned.
She decided not to comment on the extremely unlikely double flower bed church falling situation, and instead focused on him joining the Dragonblades. "Yes! I knew you'd wanna sign up!" she cheered. "It's gonna be so much fun! We can go on adventures together, kick bad guy butt, find long lost materia, which I totally get dibs on, by the way!" she said, her words running a mile a minute as she basically ran around Zack with excited energy. "C'mooon! I'll show you their headquarters! Cooooome on!" she cheered, gesturing for Zack to follow her.
"And hey! There's nothing wrong with being a thief! Not that I am. I'm a materia hunter! Totally different!" she exclaimed, as she practically dragged him to follow her.

The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Yuffie hadn't expected anybody else to approach her, because that hadn't happened for any of the children visiting Santa, but she turned and listened. She'd make sure her request went to Mother Christmas? Well, girls kicked more butt than boys, everybody knew that, so if Father Christmas could make some gifts happen, surely Mother Christmas was even better at it! And obviously, her requests were so important, she got special treatment!
"Alright!"she cried out in excitement, jumping down and following Renitra. Yuffie returned the bow automatically, without thinking. It was a traditional Wutaian greeting after all too, and she didn't really think about it for a moment. "But don't call me 'Madam'. My name's Yuffie! Or you can call me the Single White Rose of Wutai. Ohhh, or the World's Greatest Materia Hunter. Oh, oh, or the Champion of the Earth and Sky. I like that one," she said as she followed Renitra along.
"Soooo, do I just list it all again, or do I need to write it down?" Yuffie asked. "I can give you my address if you need it to deliver 'em. I'm at the Dragonblades HQ. Although, uh, usually I'd be like, make it out to Yuffie Kisaragi: Supreme Leader of the Dragonblades but you better leave that second bit off 'cause Celes has been complaining about it," Yuffie went on as she followed Renitra.

"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Wow, these Zephronites were gullible dummies. 'Santa'. Like, some big fat man in a red coat would come and give you presents one day a year. Totally dumb. Everybody knew that didn't happen. That was dumb. What, did he deliver presents to Shinra too? Even though they were totally bad? Yeah, right! Everybody KNEW that the REAL person who delivered presents was the Fairy of the Holy Flame, who delivered presents to all the kids in Wutai. THAT made sense. Of course a fairy delivered presents! And she could fly around with her wings to drop them off.
Not some big fat man being flown around by reindeer. Did they think Yuffie was born yesterday to believe THAT!?
Althooooough, it was a totally different world. And better be safe than sorry. After all, what if this 'Santa' DID deliver presents and Yuffie got something totally lame because she hadn't asked for something good? That would suck. And so, she stood in the line with the other kids. Okay, so she was a bit older than most, but she didn't care. She was still pretty short and young, so she mostly blended in.
Soon, she arrived at the front, and jumped onto Santa's lap eagerly. "Okay, so I would like a Knights of the Round materia, a X4 materia, an All materia, ohhh, Neo Bahamut materia, Zero Bahamut materia, obviously, ohh, Mime materia, Double Cut materia, Enemy Skill materia, oh, and HP and MP plus materia, again, obvs. Oh, and a new shuriken!" she explained with an enthusiastic smile to the very confused Santa Claus actor. Because, well, if she DIDN'T ask for any of that she definitely wouldn't get it. So nobody could blame her for trying!

"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Yuffie frowned a little at Zack, as he seemed to realise that perhaps he had never quite been the 'hero' he dreamed of. She paused for a moment, not quite sure if she felt sympathy, or something more resembling some deep seated anger she tried to hide. After all, how could anybody have believed they were being a 'hero' while invading Wutai? How could anybody have taken so much from her homeland and thought they were the good guy? But it seemed Zack really had never thought about it. He had never questioned it. "Guess that's you Shinra peeps for you. Always swallowing whatever they feed you. Meanwhile, the rest of us, who are actually SMART, could see all the lies," Yuffie boasted, deciding to settle for a mixture of sympathy AND bitterness. And of course a dash of unique Yuffie-ness. After all, she wasn't lying. Shinra's propaganda was so obviously transparent to her. She had no idea how Zack couldn't see it.
Of course, someone might say that Yuffie was equally blinded in believing Wutai had been so fantastic before the invasion, but Wutai HAD been great, she didn't care what anybody said!
"Not right now, nope!" she answered, although she started laughing to herself at the memory. "Wooow, you were so easy to trick! Actually, no wonder you fell for Shinra's lies. You fall for everything!" she laughed to herself. Yuffie had been so young then, and even then, she had managed to make Zack run all over the place for her. And usually allowing her to swoop in and steal whatever mattered first.
"Huh Weird," she remarked regarding the sword. "I guess, sometimes people show up, apparently from different times. I always thought people were just losing their memories, but if you come from an actual different time, I guess you could show up with YOUR sword, and Cloud could show up from his time with HIS sword, and it's the same sword? Whoa." Yuffie felt her eyes widen as she figured it out.
"You fell through a church roof? Cloud told me that's how he met Aerith. Maybe he was still thinking he was you?" Yuffie suggested. And then she frowned. "Except Aerith agreed. So... I dunno. Maybe that's just how you Shinra peeps like to meet each other. Is falling through church roofs like, a mating ritual for you or something?" she asked with a teasing shrug.
"Dragonblades! They're a mercenary group!" Yuffie explained. "I mean, you still get to do whatever you want. But I also get work. With, y'know, getting paid. Don't you need that? Ohhh, or did you turn into a thief?" she asked, grinning.

"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
"You joined a rebellion?" Yuffie asked after a moment. She wasn't sure that Celes had told her that bit. The way she said it as if Yuffie had forgotten meant that she had probably told her at some point, but as per Yuffie's usual approach, she probably hadn't been listening. "I was a rebel! I was part of the New Wutai Government, rebelling against our old rule to restore Wutai. Then I joined another rebellion. Kinda. I joined Avalanche. I'm a double rebel!" she said proudly. Ha. Beat that, Celes!
"I promise! I will be super good at representing the Dragoblades. Heck, I'm the BEST at representing your name! Have you SEEN how I introduce myself? I know how to talk a team up! I can make the Dragonblades sound like the COOLEST people on the planet! Which you are! 'cause you have me in you!" she remarked. And then she paused. "...Okay that came out wrong," she added quickly. "Although, to be honest, I've never got why that whole 'being inside someone' gag is meant to be so dirty and gross. I mean, what's it even mean- OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Wait a minute! I get it! ...... Ewwwwww. Nevermind," she made a face, sticking her tongue out a little.
"See, I KNEW about the chain of command when I was young, it's just, it totally didn't apply to me! I told you, my old man was the ruler of Wutai. So I'm totally kinda sorta basically a princess. I mean, we don't call me that AND frankly princesses are wusses and I'm a badass ninja," she threw some air punches to demonstrate, "But it meant, what was my old man gonna do? Stick me in jail? Phhhhbt. If I skipped my training or maybe that one time I broke into the Pagoda and knocked that 2000 year old vase over? Nobody's gonna do anythin' to me! I'm Yuffie Kisaragi!" she explained cheerfully. Of course, at the same time, it probably explained a few things about why Yuffie was how she was. The daughter of the ruler was unlikely to have to follow the same rules as everyone else, and it was clear that she was used to getting away with anything. "Ummmm, which, totally doesn't apply here I knoooow," she added quickly.
Yuffie rolled her eyes a little and let out a groan.
"Right, right, okay, got it! I promise I will only disobey if I have a super good reason!" she assured Celes. Although of course, what counted as a Yuffie-good-reason and what counted as a Celes-good-reason were probably two different things...
And then she bounced with excitement, clenching her two fists to herself.
"Alright! Now we're talkin'! What are we doin'? Fighting!? Let's gooooo!"she cheered, getting ready and throwing some more of her air punches.

"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Yuffie did her best to radiate earnest compliance as Celes asked her if the area was clean. If the potions had been neatly put away. To which she paused, and looked a little sheepish. "Uhhh, totally. Yep. Totally did that second part too. On a completely unrelated note... be right back!" she said, before dashing back into the building again. A few more minutes passed, and then she re-emerged, with a more confident grin on her face. Right, that was sorted now. And she was sure Celes didn't suspect a thing! It was totally fine.
She listened as Celes gave her the speech. How she was a soldier. How she was used to following orders, and now she was a General and she gave orders and you had to follow them. Yuffie paused, contemplating for a moment. And then she replied. "I didn't grow up a soldier," Yuffie said, after a moment, and for the first time, her tone was nearly sincere. "I was gonna. I was MEANT to. My home was invaded when I was just a kid. By Shinra. We were a nation of a thousand years of tradition and history and they rolled in with mechs and robots and laser guns and genetically spliced super soldiers. And why? 'cause they wanted to build a reactor. See, they made these big reactors that suck up mako, which is, like, the life force of the planet. And they'd drained all their areas dry, so they set their eyes on us. And when my Dad said no, they attacked us. And I was just a kid and I grew up always ready for the fight back. Ready to kick their butts and save my home! Except, before I was old enough..." Yuffie paused.
"....They won. My old man surrendered. And I had to watch as Shinra rolled in and stripped from us everything that we ever were. A thousand years of history, of culture, of all our proud warrior traditions, and it was all stripped away and we were turned into a joke. And I just had to watch as the Shinra gaijin came to my home and didn't even use it as a military base or anything. They turned us into a vacation destination. All that stuff that meant so much to me? It became a joke. A stupid thing they posed with. They bought toy shurikens and ninja headbands and posed for photographs with them while they laughed at all the stuff that mattered. And the only order I ever got was 'do nothing'. 'Respect Shinra'. 'Let them walk all over us'. 'Stand down'," Yuffie explained, her eyes a little glassy as she talked.
"...and I said no. So I grew up learnin' to disobey orders, to NOT do what I was told, 'cause what I was told was wrong. I fought back against Shinra. And, look, I know I get it wrong sometimes. I made lots of mistakes. But in the end, Shinra is gone, and Wutai is free. So... I'm sorry if I'm kinda a brat. But my entire life, all I've known, is I gotta disobey. I gotta not do as I'm told. An' sometimes, I guess, it's just what I fall back on. 'cause it's, like, what I always do..." Yuffie explained with a slight sigh.
"I guess what I'm sayin' is... I'll try. To do what you tell me," Yuffie said with a nod. "But it's gotta make sense! 'cause the second you give me an order I don't agree with, and I'm not doin' it. I've met lots of Shinra people since the war in Wutai. And do you know what they all say? 'We were followin' orders'. And that's never gonna be me. 'I was following orders' is never gonna be my excuse. I do what I think is right!" she said with determination.
And then she paused.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaand sometimes what I think is gonna be funny. So, um, I'll promise to work on that second bit," she said with enthusiastic determination.

"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Yuffie's eyes widened in shock, and she quickly ran, half waving her arms, to stick her head in Celes's face with frantic, worried energy. "Nonono! Don't throw me out! Please!" she said quickly. "I didn't say I'd never clean! I-I just said this one time, 'cause it was self-discipline, b-but-" she paused. "I'm a ninja! And deception is the way of the ninja! And what's more deceptiony than lying to yourself? So if I lied to myself about not cleaning up then it's not even not self-discipline it's just me being a good ninja! So I can totally clean it up! Please don't throw me out!" she said again, before dashing inside to grab the mop.
A few minutes passed, and then she ran back out again.
"There! All cleaned up!" she said, radiating a mixture of pride and worry. "Sooooo.... now you don't have to fire me, riiiight? I can still be a Dragonblade?" she asked hopefully.
"Ever since I got here, this place has sucked! Back home, everything I did, I did for Wutai. That's my home, by the way. Even when I did the bad stuff, I did it 'cause I was trying to help my home. But here, I don't have a Wutai. I don't have anything to fight for. So I found the Dragonblades. And you guys are heroes and I was a hero and I wanna be a hero again so I need to be a Dragonblade!" she explained, her tone earnest, if frantic and as confused as ever. "Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease?" she begged, quite literally, hands together towards Celes, desperation in her eyes.

"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Yuffie's grin faltered into what was slightly more of an abashed smile as Celes instructed her to go and clean up the mess, telling her that she was, in fact, the new recruit, even though as far as Yuffie was concerned, she'd been a Dragonblade for ages now. But then she listed all of the things she wanted Yuffie to demonstrate...
...including self-discpline, and Yuffie's grin returned to its full, broad diameter.
"Soooooooo..... self-discipline would mean staying true to the path I've decided, right? So, since I already decided not to clean up the mess, wouldn't it be NOT self-discpliney of me to then give in to your orders even though I already decided not to? Sooooooo, if I've gotta have self-discpline, it means my only choice is to NOT go and clean it up. Sorry," she shrugged with a grin. "I don't make the rules. You do. And that's the rule you just made," she said happily.
"As for the rest, jus' point me at your trainin' exercises, and I'll show you what I can do," she said, throwing some air punches again. "Didja know I'm the Champion of the Pagoda? Wutai's Greatest Warrior? Seriously, throw whatever you got at me, I can take it!" she beamed with enthusiasm.
Hopefully, by the time this training session was over, Celes would be agreeing to put her in charge of the Dragonblades, just like she thought. Although all this leadership stuff seemed pretty dull. Maybe she was better off not doing that. Although that depended on exactly how much mopping up messes NOT being leader meant that she had to do...

"Get ready , ZEPHRON, for YUFFIE!"
The Great Ninja Yuffie!
Yuffie's first thought as the woman introduced herself was weird, she has the same name as the boss lady. Her second thought, as Celes finished introducing herself, was;
Oh no.
Slowly, she retracted her arm that had been holding out the mop, her fixed grin remaining in place with a slightly nervous laugh.
"Well, it's really more of an unofficial thing. See, I'm SUPER experienced, and I've helped save the world and kill a guy who was basically a god, so, it makes sense that people look up to me as a big hero," Yuffie explained quickly, backtracking on the 'officially' a leader thing.
She glanced back at the mop, and back to Celes. "Sure, I'll get a new recruit to do it, as soon as I see one," she replied with the kind of confidence that wilfully skipped over any possibility of knowing what Celes had meant. She waited just a moment after Celes had left, grabbed a piece of paper, and quickly scribbled on it.
To Tomoe,
Celes ordered you to mop up this spilled potion.
Love,
Yuffie
And then a few moments later, she scarpered after Celes, bursting out into the training yard with her usual energy.
"Really, I gotta prove myself again? Hasn't Caius told you 'bout me? He's always writing you letters! An' I kicked his butt to prove I belong here," she said, which might have been a tiny exaggeration but she stuck to it. "Also, I mentioned the whole, saved the world thing, right? Seriously, you're lucky to have me really!" she pointed out.
And then she hopped to the side, throwing a few air punches, to demonstrate how much ass she could kick. "But if I gotta kick your butt too to prove it, let's go! C'mon!" she said eagerly, drawing her shuriken with a big grin on her face, excited and ready to go.
