Network Prompts
ONE: IT WON'T BE LONG NOW... Well, you made a mistake. You spent too long searching around, or you ran outside near the end of the day for just one more thing, and now you've been locked out. You can search around all you want, but the best shelter you can hope for is pressing against the side of a sealed up building. You do still have your tablet, though. Maybe someone on the network can give you some advice, or at least some comfort while you wait for hypothermia to set in.
TWO: CABIN FEVER Maybe you didn't want that mistake of getting caught outside to happen again, but now you've ended up staying too long in one location, and cabin fever has set in. Maybe you're taking to the network to try and ignore the hallucinations. Maybe you want to tell everyone that you've figured out they're all in on your kidnapping. Maybe you ended up wandering off and now you'd really like to know if anyone can check back in the place you were at for your pants.
Action Prompts
THREE: AN UNEXPECTED MEETING You're going about your business searching what seems like it might be an especially promising house--it's fully intact and there's even a working fireplace with some wood! It looks like someone else has the same idea, though, and you've run into them in the middle of your search. Do you share the potential wealth or try to kick them out? On the other hand, maybe you know who this is, or maybe you're just glad to actually see another person for the first time in ages.
FOUR: GOOD MORGUE-NING You've just woken up in a morgue after dying in one unfortunate way or another. You have no idea where you are beyond that, but your tablet is insisting you can't stay here, so you should probably get out of here pretty quickly. Of course, bringing people back from the dead isn't a perfect science, so you're missing something important to you. Maybe you've lost your voice, maybe you can't remember where you're from, maybe you can't remember where you are right now. It looks like someone else is nearby, though. Maybe they can help you out?
[That the figure walking in appears to be wearing a not unfamiliar black suit beneath the coat she's bundled up in might not do much to help Tifa feel like she can relax any time soon for the company that's found her. It's far from intentional, though; Cissnei doesn't know Tifa anything like well enough to appreciate that her presence might be a disruption.
No, all Cissnei sees is another young woman in a space that seems big enough for both of them, should Tifa allow it.]
Don't worry. I only came in here to get warm. And maybe see what's around here. I'll try not to get in your way.
[Tifa recognizes the suit immediately, or at least she thinks she does. Maybe it's desperation to find something familiar in all of this, but the girl definitely looks like a Turk. Maybe two years ago that would have been immediate reason to try to kick her out, but there's no Shinra here. And anyway, Rufus and Rude had saved her and Cloud and helped them in Edge, so she's been feeling quite a bit warmer towards the Turks than she'd ever thought she'd be.
So she shakes her head, putting her hands on her hips.]
Cissnei. Nice to meet a friendly face around here.
[They're in scarce supply, in the cold, barren landscape outside, and even for someone like Cissnei, who keeps to herself more often than not, the lack of other people around has been unsettling.
She has, after all, grown up in a city where such solitude is a rarity and while her work has entailed stretches of time in less populated areas, it's always been with knowing there's somewhere for her to go back to.
She doesn't have that luxury here. Which means having to make what connections she can, however she can.]
Looks like this is one of the better-kept places, at least.
[She nods. The name doesn't ring a bell, but that doesn't mean much. Of course, there are probably more important things than trying to figure where her new companion is from, but... Sue her, she's homesick.]
Where are you from, Cissnei?
[If she is a Turk, she's not one that Tifa has ever run into. But that doesn't mean much, either.]
[Even as the response falls easily enough from her lips, Cissnei can't help but find it a strange question to ask. It's enough that she forgets her other aims for the moment, concerned more now with seeing if she can place why she might be familiar.
Nothing's stirring. Maybe once or twice she's seen someone like her in passing but Cissnei sees a lot of people so that doesn't really tell her much.]
I'm sorry...have we met?
I decided to switch to an earlier canon point when I app but WHATEVS
[Tifa shakes her head in response, then tilts her head.]
No, I don't think so. I'm from Gaia, too.
[She's not going to bring up AVALANCHE, of course. There's no telling how a random Turk would feel about everything that had happened, and if they're going to be trapped together all night, Tifa would rather avoid that conflict.]
[Her tone reflects how cautiously pleased she is at hearing Tifa's response; on the one hand, common ground is rarely a bad thing but since she doesn't remember Tifa she can't trust that being from the same world will be enough.
There are a lot of people on Gaia with a lot of very valid reasons to dislike her. She'd rather not bring any of those up if she can help it.
Better to focus on where they are now, then.]
This place sure is something though, huh. Can't say it hasn't taken some getting used to.

No worries, we'll work it out somehow!

[Especially for a city girl like her.]
