Mistakes FFVII Style
Disclaimer: you really should know by now
Authors note: The first of a couple of silly ones where I've accidentally hit one of my own team members, cause the bloody baddie has been attacking them and I've not been patient and waited for the idiot to move. So yeah. Aerith gets to have all sorts of fun with the lads which is great as well.
How to annoy a character:
Cloud accidentally smacking Aerith
Bandits and thieves were always going to be a problem in a prison, it was understandable. But what was really starting to annoy the living daylights out of Cloud was the fact that they all seemed to be targeting them. Just because they were new faces and that meant they could have useful things on them. All right, so he knew they were carrying a bit to much stuff but that surely shouldn't make them easy pickings.
The current bandit was leering at Aerith, whilst rifling through her pockets to get at the gil she had. The girl was in a considerable amount of stress due to this and Cloud did the heroic thing of coming to her rescue.
By accidentally hitting her with his sword.
"CLOUD!" Aerith yelled, shoving the Bandit away and allowing Barrett to smack him several times over with his bullets, "What the heck was that for?"
"Sorry" said Cloud, trying to duck something that was thrown his way, "I was trying to hit him and you kinda got in the way!"
"I did what?" yelled Aerith, completely forgetting about the battle and charging full length into Cloud so that he was knocked to the floor and consequently started hitting him constantly about the head with her fists.
Barrett turned to look at the scene and had to hold back a smirk which was creeping across his features. A big brave ex-SOILDER swordsman getting beaten to the ground by a flower girl from the slums of Midgar was definitely a sight to behold. He turned to the bandit, still trying to hide his grin, "Going to give that gil back or shall I let her have a couple of shots at you?"
The Bandit took one last fearful look at Aerith, who was in the process of bashing Cloud around the head, before handing the stolen gil over and fleeing for his life. With a bellowers laugh, Barrett walked over to the fighting pair and picked the flower girl up with ease, "All right love birds, stop your little games. We've got work to do"
Lesson learned: when an enemy is attacking a character don't hit the okay button unless absolutely sure that you're going to attack the enemy and not a team member.
