[The rush of joy honestly is really infectious and it has Sora laughing too. Those little pink hearts return to float about and when he's knocked on the shoulder Sora grins bright and drops his water balloon for real this time. The creature just barks and waddles over a few paces before flopping down on the ground like a squishy pancake.]
Hahah! That sounds like him. [Squall likes helping and hunting.] I guess we're all sort of Auron's weird kids, now.
[ Tidus missed his chance to see if it flattened when it fell...! But that's okay, since he's rather enjoying the present company, despite Sora's remark earning something of a cheery-groan and Tidus pulling a face. He's even got his hands out just like your icon, spiky. ]
Uggghh, what, you run around and he's somewhere in the background watching you? Trust me: It's not as fun as it sounds.
[ GET USED TO IT, BUDDY!! Tidus is not going to agree to anything positive about Auron, and simply fold his arms instead. ]
Yeah, but I have to rent one right now. [ Siiiggh. ] It's not that bad... the hunts pay a lot, so I covered the money Auron lent me easy. And to be honest, I'd rather wave around a sword for a while than get stuck working in a shop or his and his friend's inn.
[ So boring....! ]
Plus, I'm a guardian! [ That perks him, and he waves a hand in idle gesture. ] I figure even if I'm here and time doesn't really make sense, I should still train. I have someone I need to protect when I go back.
[He'll get those feel good mushy family feelings out of Tidus one of these days! He swears it! #HEALTHYRELATIONSHIPS. He even gives Tidus a bit of a look because Auron lent him money like a good uncle would.
But then he laughs.] Me too, I don't know how people sit around working those kinds of jobs. Monster hunts are way better!
[Even if Squall is one of those people at the restaurant.]
And, you're talking about Yuna, right?
[Please don't think he's weird for knowing this much about Tidus, Sora's just been around a lot.]
You know, it's already weird that you know some other me and a Wakka since you were kids. I don't need to find out you've met every single person I have.
I mean, I've barely known Wakka and Yuna for a month. What am I supposed to say about...you knowing some other her?
[ He doesn't suspect Sora wants him to say anything, but it's weird and uncomfortable, and it reads on the frown he wears, how he tightens the fold of his arms.
[Sora blinks in surprise and then tries to shake his hands out in front of him.]
No, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to make it sound weird!
[He pouts a little as he crosses his own arms over his chest.]
We were friends back home, yeah. But I didn't know Yuna for that long either. I just thought it was kind of cool that I do know other yous and Yunas. I just come from a really weird place.
[ It's lightly said despite the sarcasm, and the frown on Tidus's face deepens as he considers what to say next. Try to explain why it's weird? For this guy to know these people, when even he shouldn't know them. And what does that mean? Does that mean anything?
...it kinda makes his head a mess is what Tidus finds, sighing as he lets his hands drop. ]
Let's just forget about it. [ There, easy! And now that his hands are free, he can gesture with one, voice brightening.] Let's get something to eat! Where's somewhere you go with friends? That your round pal can come to.
[Sora feels a little embarrassed. Sometimes he doesn't realize how pushy he sounds when he talks about the connections and similarities between his own world and others. But at least Tidus seems to be changing the subject.
He picks up his meow wow again and nods quickly.]
Uh, there's From the Hearth? A lot of people go there. Or we can go somewhere else.
I was thinking somewhere less fancy. [ Somewhere with less Auron. ]
Somewhere with more sugar and grease than a blitz player like me should really be eating! [ He rolls his hand, becoming more eager. ] I've been on the road too long. I wanna know what it's like being in a city again!
[ C'mon Sora, let's enjoy ourselves!! With garbage food! ]
Haha! Alright! Burgers and soda it is! It's on me, okay? Get as much as you wanna eat!
[Sora perks up brightly and waves his hand for Tidus to follow him. He gives a quick whistle to hos companion as well and the chubby catdog meows and happily follows them.]

Hey, when you need him to bail you out of trouble, he's the first one there!
[And with that broken gate in the back of his thoughts...! Who knows! They might need that bail someday!]
But I'm guessing you and Squall won't need his help with monster hunting. You still use a sword, right?

[ Tidus looks at Sora curiously, surprised. ]
Did Auron say something...?
no subject
[Sora tilts his head.]
But I know Yuna from my own worlds too! Except she's a fairy.
[Sora, what??]
no subject
Uh.
...
You're a fairy.
[ he actually doesn't know what a fairy is he's just blanking on a response. ]

[Does he look like one???]
I said Yuna was one!
