Thank you to all of my reviewers, you guys really are great!


~*Lesson*~

Vincent found it ironic that his father, while teaching him to shoot a gun, had given him life altering advice.

"Women are an enigma, son," Grimoire confessed, raising Vincent's arm slightly to level the pistol in his hand. "There are some you can trust, and some you can't. Scientists are of the breed that you and I call friends. I've learned over the years that women of science have hearts full of good and high hopes for the future of the Planet!"

Vincent took the advice to heart, for his father was never wrong.

"And, son – never trust a thief. They'll steal all you have to give when you least expect it."

His father, as it turned out, was dead wrong about scientists, perhaps the only thing he'd ever been wrong about. Falling in love with a scientist - now, that had been Vincent's downfall. In retrospect, however, he would not change this for the world, for it led him to the sticky-fingered ninja girl, the only one Vincent truly adored. All Vincent had left to give was his shattered heart, and Yuffie had stolen it blindly, piecing her treasure back together with all she had to give, too. Ironically, it was just enough for the jaded gunslinger to forget the betrayal of a certain scientist and open his heart to a certain materia thief.

His father remained truthful in saying that a thief would steal all he had to offer - but he wasn't in any hurry to retrieve his heart from Yuffie Kisaragi, he rather liked it in her possession.


Eh, not sure if I liked it. Thanks for reading peeps, please drop a review!

The next prompt is some random one, but the one after that... is the second prompt in the Mood Swing sequence! (That would be the one where Yuffie leaves Vincent because her father's making her marry a Wutain noble!)
