The fairy-tale dispute that Zidane and Kuja share in FFIX is compelling! You look back on it, and then you can't help but ask yourself, " What would've changed had Zidane knew they were biologically related?"
This is my first attempt at a one-shot with Zidane narrating about the fact that Garnet asked him to pretend that he was talking to Kuja in order to clear up an disputes that have conjured in his mind. Needless to say, Kuja is never too far away, even when it comes to having no physical form.
So I hope you all enjoy, tell me what you think, and give me ideas on what I could possible pull of next!

Brother, where art' thou?
"We met on bad terms—I admit that. But I just can't understand why you would just disappear like that. . ."
Zidane, Zidane, Zidane. . .
"You fought against me and my friends on both Gaia and Terra, but I could tell in my gut that you weren't a bad guy at heart."
Covered in the wings of the canary, are we?
"Have to admit though. . . You got a really bad fashion streak going on, I mean, with that get-up and all..."
Appearance is influenced by personality, my dear brother.
"Well, what I mean to say is, you really took me by surprise back at Burmecia."
I was born to catch the eye of the audience…Have you not realized it yet?
"It's been ten years since the incident we had in the Iifa Tree. Can't believe it's been that long, can you?"
Life is but a requiem of one too many memories.
"Y'know…I don't get why Garnet is having me write a make-believe letter to you like this. I don't even know where to send it!"
Your eyes are mine, as are your fingers. Genomes we are, and blood-ties we've shared since day one.
"I wish you were here though…Heh, I have questions that need answering."
Have you been born an invalid like I, then your questions would only be haunting occurrences.
"Mikoto said that I was genome…So did Garland, and…I was wondering."
Wondering?
"Does that mean that we're..."
Brothers.
"Brothers?"
