[ Cid is at his desk as usual, writing in a small leather-bound journal. He looks up when Clive steps inside and gives him a brief nod in greeting before he starts wrapping up what he's doing.
It feels as if it's been a lifetime since Clive had sulked into his solar the first time, suspicious and resentful, barely willing to share a glass of wine. Now he's complimenting the decorating, so to speak. Cid smiles briefly as he tucks a bottle of ink into the drawer. ]
Thought I'd see what it might look like, and now it's gone and grown on me so... [ He makes a gesture toward the outside. He'd kept it. He'd thought of setting up some kind of memorial for Kenneth, and Martel, and all of the others... but nothing really felt right. This, at least, was a reminder of the future that had finally come into their reach in the wake of all that tragedy.
He pushes himself to his feet and rolls some of the stiffness out of his shoulders. They've done this so many times before, he knows that he can just launch into it and sort things out with Clive as they go... but even so, Cid looks him over, his brow slightly furrowed. ] You sure you're alright?
