15 sentences of Family Bliss, inspired by :iconphantom-chick:'s 50 sentences of Renaj .com/art/50-Sentences-of-Renaj-122650897 , but I have less patience than her…and most of these got longer than one sentence. Bah.
1 Season
It was difficult to imagine Loz and Vincent having anything in common, but when the soccer season started they claimed the TV as theirs, loaded up on beer and snacks, and sat up all night cheering and cursing, much to the irritation of the non-sport fans of the family
2 Measure
Some people had a problem with Loz and Yazoo's relationship, but Reno had seen so much worse as a Turk that a bit of clonecest barely measured on his weird-shit-ometer
3 Satisfaction
When Kadaj and Yazoo was having another hissing fit over the last pancake, Loz and his cats where tearing down the cupboard content in search of food and Cid was cussing and smoking indoors again, Vincent took a deep breath and smiled, the shadows of his past dispersing in the light of his family's loving chaos.
4 Sick
None of the four genetically enhanced men in the Valenwind household had any experience with being sick, so when Cid came down with a rather nasty flue they all panicked slightly; sending the Sephlings to the pharmacy to pick up some cold medicine had resulted in the confused and worried boys simply getting one of everything. Cid guessed most of it wasn't so bad; they were bound get uses for the bandages and headache pills sooner or later, but what the Hell was he supposed to do with the nursing pads?
5 Blood
Kadaj had wanted to surprise Reno when he got home from work but the Turk that stepped into his apartment barely looked like his beloved red-head; he looked tired and worn out and blood had soaked through his uniform and dried in his hair and on pale skin, some of it obviously his own even though a Cure had taken care of the actual wounds. Reno recoiled, shocked at seeing Kadaj, shame lighting his face: *I never wanted you to see me like this!*
Kadaj flipped open his phone, his eyes never leaving the stained, trembling Turk.
"Yazoo…how do you best get blood stains out of a white shirt?"
6 Harm
Some would think Loz lets his brothers boss him around out of a deep inferior complex and a need to be loved; in reality it's the other way around and he lets them tell him what to do because he knows they love him and would never do him any harm.
7 Peel
It's a little known fact that Vincent Valentine can use his claw to peel potatoes
8 Pet
Galian Beast loves to be rubbed on the belly, but his claws tend to tear up the couch as his leg starts to twitch
9 Dry
"I want yer body, Valentine." Cid snuggled up to his husband.
"I'm still using it."
Sometimes it was difficult to know if Vincent had no sense of humor at all or if it was just very, very dry.
10 Quiet
The Remnants were natural quiet walkers, but they quickly learned to make some noise when entering a room because accidentally scaring Vincent when cooking always resulted in a mass of demon fire, a sulking gunman and a thoroughly burned dinner.
11 Issues
Cid didn't mind that his lover had a head full of demons, long periods of perpetual moping and all kinds of issues with doctors, nor that his adopted kids had once tried to destroy the world, sometimes heard voices in their heads and dated Turks. He didn't even much mind not being allowed to smoke in his own house anymore and having to fish out kittens from his tea kettle in the morning, but he stubbornly refused having to use shampoo that smelled like flowers, damn it. A man had to draw the line somewhere.
12 Delicate
Loz was far too big for anyone who didn't know him to try to bully around and no one wanted to mess with Kadaj who at least in theory could turn Sephiroth on their asses, but Yazoo was fair game to some of the low-brows in town.
At least until four of them where found naked, *completely* shaved and hung from the towns church-bell tower. The doctor had to use pliers to remove the hairbrush, the nail polisher, the sunglasses and the mirror from where they had been shoved.
When asked if he knows anything about it, Yazoo just smiles serenely.
13 Alcohol
Cid is like whiskey; an acquired taste, slightly rough and raw but with the ability to warm anyone up, Vincent is like brandy; deceptively old and mature and refined but with a punch that could knock you over any day, Loz is like beer, straightforward, bitter-sweet and with a heart of gold, Yazoo is like wine, slightly snobby, but smooth and fresh and velvety, and Kadaj….Kadaj is like a shot of vodka, and you'll never know what hit you. (Reno is like one of those garish and candy-sweet drinks that are served with an umbrella and makes you drunk just looking at it)
14 Leather
"No, I don't think semen works well as a leather conditioner."
15 Phone call
*Ring, ring*
"Yes?"
"Yo, I wanna talk to the hottest guy around."
Yazoo looked out the window where Cid was cutting the grass in cut offs and a fedora, getting nicely tanned in the summer sun, Kadaj was taking a break in the shade of a tree and sipping soda through a straw with his plump soft lips around the straw, Vincent was completely unaware of just how sexy he looked rubbing sun lotion all over any exposed body parts and Loz was playing gently with the kittens, strong back and shoulder muscles rippling. Then he looked at the svelte, lean figure in the mirror.
"I'm going to have to ask you to be a bit more specific than that."
"Very funny, Yazoo."
