[Squall still hadn't quite grown accustomed to this Garden of the future. It was strange, all the different faces in a place that was... ... ...well home, for lack of anything else. He'd missed a lot. Still he was part of Garden and he just had to get used to it. ...If he could get over his natural anti-social tendencies. He didn't really talk to people much of his own volition, but he'd been walking around more than he might have if this were the right time period, noticing things, matching faces with ranks and just getting a general idea of who all these people were.

Today you can find him in one of three places as I shamelessly rip off Japan's log format yep:

A You see Squall in the Quad, examining the Home Ec class's garden. At least until he gets too close to a certain tree and a flock of birds take flight, diving straight for him. Yes that is your Commander covering his head and trying to get away from a swarm of angered animals. No there's no dignity today.

B You see Squall in the Garage. He's looking over the latest cars Garden's acquired, hey he likes cool things what can he say. Goes with the belts. Too bad it'd be a total abuse of authority to take these out for a joyride...

C You see Squall in the Training Center, taking out some grats with a frown on his face. Hey the Commander's got to stay in shape too! It's really convenient Time Compression brought his gunblade along, he'd hate to have to ask where present Squall's is. Or present Squall is in general. ...He seriously hopes present Squall isn't dead or something, wow maybe he should stop thinking about this. Back to taking out those grats.]

I mean they don't put seventeen-year-olds in charge, even as figureheads, for no damn reason.

So what did you do?

...

[That is a whole complex thing he doesn't really want to get into lmfao. HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT TIME PARADOXES KIDEN...]

You'd have to ask the Headmaster. It was his decision.

[Looking at the hoverbike one last time he just heads for the door. Really not what he wants to talk about and he should probably get back to work anyway. If he can't fix Time Compression the least he can do is pull his share around here.]

[ She's chronokinetic! But of course Squall doesn't know that. NOTHING ABOUT TIME BOTHERS HER ANYMORE, REALLY.

She watches his retreating back, fingers digging into the leather of the seat. She grits her teeth; how dare he walk away? Fucking coward. She is tempted to summon up No-Time and grab him, but instead she smothers the impulse.

She slides off Snow's bike, her shoes making a dull noise against the floor. ]

Wait.

[He does stop and look back at that at least, but he doesn't say anything, waiting fff]

You used that cigarette, yet?

[ C'mon, Squall, it's a yes/no question YOU CAN DO IT ]

[paradoxdestined.livejournal.com]

[No, he can't. Cause you know what? He reaches into his back pocket and pulls it out, holding it up for her to see FFF. I would call this strange and bizarre, but considering he's had to carry around tentacles and dragon skin for weapons upgrades this cannot be the weirdest thing he's ever had on his person.]

[ The corners of her mouth curl, and she hums softly in amusement. ]

Didn't think so. Keep it.

[ A salute--half-assed, but a salute anyways. ] Be seein' you.

[paradoxdestined.livejournal.com]

[There's a pause and then he returns it not so half-assed. ...Well he has a cigarette in his hand that doesn't help lmao. But he'll be on his way. Maybe he has even more to think about now...]
