I've been waiting for so long (Complete / Closed)

[sumofallfayth]

Character(s): Yuna and Rikku
Content: Cousins are reunited! And then bonding time.
Setting: Yuna and Tidus' apartment
Time: week 38.
Warnings: Energy. Rikku. Adorableness.



Yuna was excited to see her cousin again. It had been far too long and the last time she'd seen Rikku, the blonde hadn't remembered nearly as much as she did. This Rikku seemed at least to be on par with her, or at least she seemed to remember more. Yuna would have to get specifics on that soon enough.

For now, she just waited impatiently downstairs in the apartment complex for Rikku's arrival. She couldn't wait to catch her up on everything that was going on, everything that had happened. There were some things that were just better said in person, some things she didn't want to risk saying on the journals. She had to explain the city to Rikku and that Tidus and Jecht and Auron were here - even if she'd already touched on that. Everything was so complex. Best take it slow.

So Yuna waited. Come on, Rikku. Don't get lost now.

Rikku was, in fact, surprised at the size of the apartment. Even after living on the Celsius for months, she still remembered the tiny houses on Besaid and the cramped hotels they'd stayed in during the pilgrimage. She felt like their entire family plus a few extra people could fit in there. Sharing bedrooms and possibly beds? No sweat. The blonde just wanted to throw her arms out and spin around a bit, just to enjoy the space.

"That's all crazy," she said, still eyeing the room they were in; she couldn't get over it just yet. "And memories? Shiva, again?" Hands folded behind her back, she started to wander, automatically wanting to investigate every nook and cranny. She paused when Yuna started talking about Spira, though. "Pre-pilgrimage, huh? Well... I guess that's good and bad in some ways." Definitely good for Zanarkand and the Calm Lands; less foot-traffic, less desecration of sacred places (Rikku knew how much that meant to her cousin, even if it was less important to her).

The temples... she turned to her cousin, nodding, suddenly almost solemn. "Yeah, good plan."
