When I was fifteen, I found my soul mate, but then I lost him.
When I was seventeen, I found a calling, but then I lost myself.
xXx
When we use the dress-spheres, we get compliments and sometimes questions.
Where did you get that?
Can I get one too?
You look so cool!
You need to cover up!
You are a gorgeous girl.
xXx
I get asked about the samurai sphere most of all.
Not because they think it's beautiful or that I look good wearing in it.
Not because it's powerful.
Because of the red coat on my back and the sword that I carry, that I wear on my back.
Because they were his.
His.
xXx
Dress-spheres weren't clothes packed into a sphere by magic or machina.
They were memories so vivid that afterimages were pulled. The user of the sphere picked up on the emotions and the afterimages and took the form of how the imagined the user.
I knew the samurai dress-sphere was there before we got there.
I took a moment during the fiend battling to roll it away from me so Yuna would find it.
So we could use it.
It was a sphere of my memories of Auron.
His coat. His sword.
xXx
When I was nineteen, I married Gippal in a traditional Al Bhed ceremony, held in Djose.
We were happy there for a long time, me taking off on sphere trips, him going off on digging trips when he got bored. I found myself again.
But I had lost the sphere.
xXx
I lost Gippal when I was twenty three.
I loved him, but we were too much for each other, too similar to stay still.
We both needed someone to still us.
xXx
I found the sphere in the Moonflow, at the spot where I first met Auron.
I tucked it away.
xXx
All lost things are found in the end.
"Look at me."
And he was there.
A matching sphere in his hand.
xXx
Finite.
