[After spending most of the day as a small child and after having been put to bed for the night, Selphie wakes up with a start. She feels constricted with the smaller clothing on and claws it before she breathe freely again. She wraps a blanket around herself and goes out in search of a journal or Lucy. She needs clothes. Her clothes. Or clothes that fit so she can sleep comfortably. She'd been running around the village all day and was dead tired because of it.

But first, she has some Navymen to filter some messages to.]

Thank you, Archie.

Anytime you wanna set up those traps to catch Archie, let me know!

So, five days as a little kid... it was fun even if I didn't remember anybody. I do know now though. Also, did anyone manage to successfully a certain special someone of mine from brooding himself into a pit of doom? Alrighty, Luceti. I've been effectively gone for two weeks so what've I missed?

And thanks to everybody who played with me this week! I had a blast but I'm going back to bed.

But... could someone bring me some clothes please?

[He's good for just holding her the rest of the day if she wants, but there is something that has to be said.]

I love you. Please don't shut me out.

[There's so much she hides and it's really the only way she can protect herself but something has to change.]

I don't remember everything but I'll try.

[Therein is the problem. He wants to protect her and she won't let him. But for now, just holding and talking.]

I know I'm not good enough, but... we can be our own family. Father loves you and...

[He's probably got no idea what he's potentially implying here but then Ceodore's never been good at filtering thoughts.]

He didn't have any family growing up either. But I think... he's seemed happy. With us. With Mother and I guess me too.

I would give you anything you wanted, you know.

[He really did forget their promise, didn't he? Selphie shakes her head a little bit. She really doesn't like it when Ceodore talks like he's not good enough when he is. Besides, it's never been his decision anyway.]

That's not really for you to decide, is it? He is happy with you and your Mother and it makes me sad to hear you saying stuff like this still.

And if you really wanna give me anything, you'll start having more confidence in yourself.

[The one thing he knows he's really bad at. But he nods anyway, slowly.]

I'll try. You're worth it.

I'll try too.

[Said as she snuggles in closer.]

[Snuggles are always a win, and Ceodore's content to do nothing more than hold Selphie close and cherish having her back.]
