Veld Dragoon was indeed ‘extra special pissy’. He didn’t like that he couldn’t find some closure and move on. Today was a day of very mixed emotions. On the one hand, he had utmost faith in Felicia. He was proud of his daughter, grateful for the years that they had to make up for lost time. Veld knew that she would be the perfect foil for the illustrious Rufus ShinRa. Not that he liked how close Rufus got to his daughter. There was something off about the boy.
That was just a little icing of cranky on the cake. Vincent returning to life was… a hard pressure against Veld’s skull. The two hadn’t spoken since before Vincent had ‘died’ and the words had not been pleasant. They were lased with hurt and loss.
“Veld.” Elmyra’s voice tore him from the stove. The kettle was steaming at him like an angry woman. She smiled in that knowing way. While he lived with her, they didn’t share a bed. Perhaps once or twice it had happened but there was just an understanding between the two of them. A shared loss of Aerith was keenly felt and neither of them could forget the day that Veld stole a dying woman and hid her body and her child with the lonely widow. She pursed her lips. “I bet he’s at the church, or headed there…”
“I don’t need to talk to him.” Veld said as though he were trying to convince her.
She took the kettle off the stove. “I don’t believe you.”
