♡ Fifth Heart (Video/Action for Traverse Town)

Hey, everyone? I've got something to show you.

[Rinoa's still in Traverse, this time standing in the synthesis shop. There's moogles chattering and working around her and Angelo is curled up off to the side, but Rinoa's holding the device so it focuses on her face.]

Now that that invasion is done, I had an idea, and the moogles agreed to help me out with it. It seems a lot of people have... disappeared... lately, more than before. So I was thinking we needed something to remember them. Not a memorial, because they're not gone for good, but just... something. And so I talked to the moogles, and they came up with this.

[She takes a step back and turns the camera to focus on one wall of the shop, where there is now a large blackboard running almost the length of the wall and covered with a matchingly large glass display case that's hanging open at the moment. At the top is painted - painted well, so you know she didn't do it - "Not Forgotten," and Rinoa sets the device down to frame the blackboard fairly well.]

If you want to, you can come here and the moogles will give you a piece of chalk, and you can write the names of your friends you want to see again on here. Just like this.

[Rinoa's gotten her own piece of chalk, and she steps up to the board to begin writing a series of names in one of the corners, talking as she prints very deliberately and neatly.]

This can be a reminder to us all of the people we're working to save and hope to see again one day. They aren't gone for good, and unless we give up they never will be. This is just... to help remind us that there are things and people out there worth fighting for. And why we're fighting in the first place.

[She finishes, placing the chalk on the little ledge below the board and stepping back to swing the case over the board so nothing can mess it up. If one looks closely, there's a series of names where she was writing - "Quistis, Selphie, Irvine, Zell, Seifer, Zone, and Watts."]

Some of my friends have returned recently; but I would still like to remember the others. [And it can serve as that tiny, faint thread of hope that they'll return, too.]

Is it alright if I help with this? Or perhaps begin one in Agrabah as well?

Of course! Why would it be bad for people to remember their friends?

A chalk board and a piece of chalk to write down the names of those people you most wished to see? That is a very simple idea but some how very touching.

I just wanted to do something - this is the best thing I could think of.

[Of course, what she really wants to do is go get everyone back, but that's a little trickier.]

Ah...I do like that idea. I have some friends that I wish to see again.

Does it matter if you met them here? Or can you list your friends from home that we have yet to see here?

I don't think so. Why should them having been here before mean you want to see them more than someone that hasn't been?

[Oz didn't want to show his face recently, after events he just... wanted to stay in his room and at work and just ignore everyone, but upon seeing this and such the way she spoke, he just wanted to reply.]

You're... right. I guess they aren't gone forever. Do you think I could come?

[He just wanted that reminder of the people he wanted to see again, those hat he missed back home and some more than others.]

[She smiles at that; it's not too difficult to see that he's going through a hard time.]

Of course! This is for everyone.

That's a good idea. [She really does like it, and she has a few people she misses but could never say so out loud.] I'll come by soon to join you, if you don't mind.

Of course I don't.

It reminds you of one of those marmoreals you get for people who died.

But it isn't for people who died - it's for people we're trying to save.

[None of these people are dead, Fai :| Don't go believing that they are.]

[Once upon a time, Zuko would have scoffed at such an idea as stupid. Now, though, he doesn't think it's stupid at all.]

I'll come, too.

[You were part of what inspired this, after all.]

Got it. This is going to stay up for good, now.

It's a good idea, Rinoa. Thank you.

I just hope people find it helpful somehow.

Are you okay?

[There are a lot of people she hopes to see one day, and saving them...well, she has a few names to write herself.]

I like that. I'm going to come by and do it, too.

Of course, everyone can come and write on it. That way we all know just how important it is to find a solution, quickly.

That's really sweet.

[She smiles at that.] Thanks, but it was simple - we don't want to forget people, so we put up something to remind us.

Can I add some decoration to it, to make it more cute and stands out more?

[Because a plain chalkboard with names doesn't make it stand out as much as making it cute.]

I apologise if it sounds rude, but it's a nice way to show we are thinking of them.

[You're lucky she likes you so much Lizzie or she'd be trying a lot less to show how disgruntled she is by this question. So she sucks at arts and crafts! People can stop rubbing it in!]

Of course, if you want to.

I think it's a great idea. I'd like to come by and put a couple names up.

Sure! Anyone who wants to can come, this isn't mine, it's everyone's.

[Alright, Leon's intrigued. And a little impressed, too.]

Looks like a lot of people really appreciate the idea. Pretty smart of you, Rinoa.

[Well that gets a bit of a blush. Just a bit, though; he's similar enough to Squall - and compliments are so rare from him - that even an... indirect-but-not-direct-in-any-way one feels good.]

Thanks. I just wanted to do something; it always seems like we're not doing enough.
