[ Thankfully the fruit vendor doesn't seem to mind overmuch. Perhaps it is because Jill still seems to be putting away fruit and, even in these times, light hearted conversation is a breath of fresh air. Life has already proven that it is going to continue on. ]
No doubt that Mid could. She is awfully talented at getting others to aid her or fetch her items that she needs.
[ Mostly Clive, but she does seem to have connections that span quite the distance. ]
Mmmn. I still have a difficult time seeing myself doing such a thing.
okay but god did not give him those pecs, he made them himself
[She looks up from the orange she'd been turning over in her hand to him, a questioning look settling into her blue eyes.]
Batting your lashes for favours?
[She teases once more, but her tone takes a turn into something a touch more serious, but not so serious that it ruins the mood that she has carefully set for them, and she places the orange gently into her basket before fishing for gil.]
... It will take some time still. [She understands that much. Not everything will happen overnight.] I will be there to help you at every step.
[ Which is really the same thing. He knows she's teasing, but there is some truth to it all as well. Without an enemy to pursue, the task of rebuilding their world requires a more delicate hand. A skill that Clive is going to need to learn to develop until the day that the Hideaway and those that he has come to champion no longer have need of him.
Yet he rolls his eyes at her teasing. He's the one that ultimately gets to the gil and hands it over before Jill. Something in his expression softens. Something fond and appreciative. ]
As you always have been for these last five years. I could not ask for a better companion.
