a/n: This is random and absolutely wierd. Read on!

Disclaimer: FFX belongs to Square Enix. I don't know who zip space belongs to. The term is used simply because I have no other idea what to call it.


The science of 'zip space' is truly amazing. At least that's what Auron thinks. Aside from blitzball, it's the only piece of technology that is carried on and accepted in Spira. He took a peek inside his sleeves, the dark void impenetrable and absolutely uninteresting. When he had the coat made, he remembered the tailor asking him how big he wanted it.

"How big… as long as my arm would fit in, I guess," Was his bewildered reply, to which the tailor had clucked his tongue in annoyance. "You are a swordsman, no? I will make it big. Very big."

When the coat was ready, Auron saw nothing out of the ordinary about the coat, that is… until Braska had put forth a most unusual question.

"Auron, do you only carry one sword?"

"Yes, I can't carry any more," Auron frowned, and Braska laughed at his reply. "You were in the monastery, and they didn't teach you about 'zip space'? Come now, put your sword inside your coat."

The request was so unusual that Auron complied, and to his shock his sword disappeared inside the folds. "What in Yevon?" He gasped, patting his coat. No hard steel, just heavy fabric. He frantically put his hand inside his sleeve and felt the hilt of his sword. "Where did it go?"

"That is zip space," Braska confirmed. "Its size is… well, I don't know about it, so you can just put things inside and see if it ever gets full."

So that's where you hide all your staffs and wands, Auron thought. And to think I thought that was some summoner-learnt skill.

But the access to each person's zip space was reason for hilarity. Auron, being economical and practical had hidden everything inside his coat sleeve, including a huge number of silver sunglasses. Yuna hid her rings on one sleeve and her wands and staffs in another. Tidus kept his swords in the hood of his shirt (if you can call it that) and his shields in the pocket of his pants. No one knows where Kimahri hides his lances.

But the funniest…had to be Lulu.

He couldn't stop smiling when Lulu stepped up to replace Tidus. "Allow me," She said demurely as she reached between her breasts and produced a spiky, prickly Qactuar doll. Auron didn't want to think of that thing inside her stiff corset, but the mental image was too funny. Thanks goodness he had the foresight to wear a high collar. "As you wish," He pulled out his own Masamune and averted his eyes, trying not to laugh.

He hoped they would get to Sin soon and finish this, because he couldn't wait to get to the Farplane and ask Yunalesca where she hid her zip space.
