"Ugh. Try... 'Jasmine, Snow White, Alice, Aurora, Belle, Cinderella'... All caps this time," Yuffie says with a groan, having taken over dictating duty for Naminé, who is now sitting beside Riku.

"Still nothing, what a surprise," Riku says, sighing.

"How come we have to do all the work? Where's Cid? Or even Ansem?" Yuffie complains, letting the arm she's using to hold up the list to her face drop to the side as she's completely taken over the couch.

Leon looks up from his leaning position and opens his eyes. "Cid's not here because you're too loud, it ticks him off, and he can't concentrate. And Ansem is too busy, you know that."

With another groan, Yuffie continues, "Try...'Jasmine, Alice-'"

"How about we call it for today, everyone? The sun has already set." Aerith says as she goes to turn up the house's heating.

Riku's spine immediately straightens. "Crap! I needed to buy food today!"

"Don't worry. I packed you some food for you to take with you and some for Naminé, of course."

Two relieved voices are heard saying, "Oh. Thank you, Aerith." Riku and Naminé, who turn to each other and laugh.

"Thank you for everything today, Aerith, Leon, Yuffie." Riku says.

Aerith and Yuffie reassure Riku that it's no problem, while Leon nods with a smile.

"We better get going," Naminé says, getting up from her seat.

Aerith shakes her head no, saying, "Not without cozier clothes, you're not! Yuffie, grab anything you can give Naminé. Leon, do not let them leave. I'll be right back."

Yuffie makes an exaggerated saluting motion and speeds off to who-knows-where, while Naminé and Riku stand in place, dumbfounded.

"Aerith is the one who knows how to delegate." Leon explains, "Give them a bit, and then you can leave." Despite the low stakes, Leon takes his 'order' very seriously.
