Yay! Thanx a bunch for those ideas!

Okay... so I didn't get to use a few of those ideas... but I think this made a pretty good chapter, anyhow.

...or maybe that's just me.

"You know, I think we should turn Rufus Chibi." Cloud said to Tifa. Tifa nodded.

"I agree." Aeris said. But Heidegger had overheard.

"President Rufus! They're going to—" Heidegger stopped.

Aeris cast Chibi.

A red headed kid sat on the floor. Tseng, leader of the Turks, was hanging on to him.

"What the—?" Tseng looked confused as he saw the chibi. "Who's this?"

"Man of no information." Someone said.

"President Rufus at your service." Reno said, sarcastically.

"Man of dripping sarcasm." Someone said.

"He's so...so little." Heidegger said, still a bit stunned.

"Man of little vocabulary." Someone said.

"Well, yeah. He's a little kid. HELLO?!" Yuffie said.

"Man of much information." Someone said.

Yuffie proceeded to beat Someone upside the head.

Scarlet picked up the baby Rufus. "He's so cute!" Rufus pulled her hair. "Ouch." Scarlet passed Rufus to Rude.

"Er... no thanks..." Rude handed the President to Vincent.

"I'd rather not." Vincent passed Rufus to Barret.

Rufus climbed atop Barret's massive shoulders. "OOOOOOOOOO!!!" He yelled, beating upon his own chest.

"Spare me..." The big man whimpered.

Rufus 'beckoned' to Nanaki. Nanaki sighed. Rufus climbed off Barret, and dragged Nanaki's sorry tail and whatnot over, knocking Barret flat on his face. With Aeris and Tifa and Yuffie and Elena and Scarlet sitting on either side of him, he looked like a tiny king. Rufus, that is. Not Barret.

"I suppose Mr. Chibi, the President himself, thinks the cat is Dark Nation." Reno drawled, from the table.

"Hey, I resent that!" Nanaki snarled.

"And I suppose Mr. President, the chibi himself, thinks he's King of the Mountain." Cid added.

"Hey, I resent that!" Barret growled. "Highwind, when I get out from this mess, you'll—" He was rudely interrupted by Rufus, kicking him smartly in the back of the head.

"And I suppose Mr. Himself, the chibi President, thinks the girls are gonna feed him grapes and fan him." Cloud rolled his eyes. "As if that would ever happen."

"Er... look again, Strife," Tseng said.

Cloud looked. The eyeballs that had been rolling around, a few seconds ago, nearly popped out of his head. Indeed, Aeris, Yuffie, and Elena were fanning him with large paper fans, and Tifa and Scarlet were feeding him bites of pear.

"Well," he shrugged, seemingly unfazed, "At least they were pears, not grapes."

"Always the optimistic one, aren't we?" Cid remarked. "The glass is half full."

"It is?" Reno looked at his mug on the table. Rude splacked (A/N:...I made that up. But you should get the meaning.) him on the head.

"That's a mug, not a glass."

"Anyways," Cloud replied, ignoring the idiots, "It all depends on whether you're pouring or drinking."

"And I'd be drinking!" Reno said. He raised the half empty mug.

Or half full.

It all depends.

Next, is both Scarlet and Heideggar, and I'd really like some ideas for that too, if it ain't too much trouble...
