It's okay, it's— You don't have to worry about me. We both lost someone, right?

[awwnoun]

Yeah, I guess, but the caring about other people thing is kind of my shtick. You know, like, the job? More than a job, kind of a lifestyle, but you get my meaning.

I'll be okay. I just wanna make sure you will too.

[powersouls]

That's really sweet of you, but...

[God, she's so tired. She used to be so much better at this whole "pretending to be fine" thing. Wasn't she? Her voice is small when she continues.]

I just... I really hope they come back.

[awwnoun]

... Yeah. Yeah, I hope they do too, as selfish as that is. [ He gets it. ] It's gonna be okay.

[powersouls]

[Tifa bites her lip for a moment.]

I know. It'll be okay if we all stick together, right?

[It doesn't come out super convincing, but she's trying!]

[awwnoun]

Yeah. No, yeah, Tifa, that's how it's gonna be okay. Promise. [ He can be the convincing one, here! ] Thanks for checking up on me.

[powersouls]

You're welcome. Thank you for talking with me, Clint. You can always call me if you need to, okay?

[awwnoun]

Yeah. You too, anytime. Stay safe, missy.

[ And he hangs up. ]
