Summary: A paper cut always leads to something good. ((Yuffie-centric.))
A paper cut always leads to something good.
That something may just be pain, granted- but sometimes it's something better.
That's why Yuffie likes getting a paper cut; whether it's Squall, or Riku, or Sora, or maybe even Roxas, someone's always willing to wrap it tenderly.
She always has to yelp when she gets one- in this case, she was trying to open a letter from Selphie without a letter opener- and then she trots off to find one of those wonderful males, always about when you need them for something so small.
Then they'll take her hand and blink, say nothing or sympathise with her, depending on who it is, and proceed to rinse it under lukewarm running water- they all hiss when she does, knowing the water stings- and patting it dry carefully. Then a band-aid will be fetched. Squall's partial to the plain material ones, Sora always grabs the Bananas In Pajamas ones, Riku loves the paopu band-aids and Roxas tends to just grab whatever's around, but they always go to the kitchen and get one for her, slipping around a housewifely Aerith to sneak into the cupboard even though she always knows they're there. Even Squall sneaks, in the kitchen. Aerith might want to do it herself, and then they won't feel so noble, or wanted.
Once the bandaid has been positioned just so and the protective coat taken off the sticky part and stuck down, they always squeeze around the cut in jest, to see her wince a little and laugh. There's no danger in a small joke between friends.
Afterwards, the feeling between Yuffie and her bandager is always mutually warm for the rest of the day. Often, he has the privelege of watching her tear up the offending scrap of paper; sometimes Yuffie will steal some cookies form the kitchen for them to enjoy- Yuffie eating most of them, of course.
But it's always a friendly atmosphere, and every one of them is glad to have the opportunity to spend the occasional time with Yuffie. It's a well-worn ritual- and it'll never leave the group.
With Yuffie, everything's fun.
No doubt the authoress is on crack!again, or lack thereof. In case you hadn't guessed, this is "warmth." Hope it was enjoyed, please review!
