Hey. 👀 Just so you know, I totally figured out what you and Sephiroth have been doing in his office. And honestly, I'm insulted. Shocked. Appalled, even!
[Shall we take bets on how wildly off the mark Zack is?]
It wasn't like Rufus had been careful lately, especially when he broke the chair but ok, he can play it cool, find out what Zack really knows before he confirms anything outright.]
How did you find out? I thought no one else even suspected.
MAN. They weren't kidding when they said you were ruthless. I get you and I aren't really close, but we could fix that! You know, bonding over shared interests and stuff! Like, um...
[...It occurs to Zack, sitting there, that he's not even sure what Rufus likes besides Sephiroth, money, and... his dog. Oh!]
Dogs! Dogs are cool! And people like to call me a puppy. 'Cause I'm definitely the goodest boy. :)
Oh, oh! And I also have a special edition Godzilla version of Jenga! Do you guys want me to bring it?? It's REALLY cool! The blocks look like a building, and it comes with a Godzilla standee that lights up like he's shooting his atomic breath!

Wait, no.
That's not right.
Other way around?

Date: 2024-05-12 05:00 am (UTC)I should have known we couldn't deceive you, I apologize.
Sephiroth wanted to keep it between the two of us.
no subject
Date: 2024-05-12 05:13 am (UTC)It was Sephiroth's idea to keep it a secret?
I thought we were close! I feel so betrayed. :(
Why didn't you guys invite me?!
I'm always here for a good time!

Date: 2024-05-12 05:20 am (UTC)It's something we prefer to keep between the two of us.
It's nothing personal, just some things aren't meant to be shared with others.

Date: 2024-05-12 05:24 am (UTC)That's so selfish! :(
Sharing is caring, you know.
What if I bring snacks?
Please?
PLEAAASE?
no subject
Date: 2024-05-12 05:55 pm (UTC)As tempting as the offer is I think we'll have to decline.
Why would you want to join us anyway?
[But he is bringing snacks next time he and Sephiroth have alone time now.]

Date: 2024-05-15 01:04 am (UTC)Zack, what do you know about what Sephiroth and I do in his office?
no subject
Date: 2024-05-15 01:17 am (UTC)Huh?
Well, I mean.
It's pretty obvious, isn't it?
All the banging around and stuff falling on the floor?
I'm not stupid, I KNOW you guys are playing Jenga.
And WITHOUT ME, I might add.
no subject
Date: 2024-05-15 02:19 am (UTC)There is a long delay because Rufus can't stop laughing after he forwards the text to Sephiroth.
It takes him a long time to compose himself because, oh, Zack.
Now, to cover.]
I asked Sephiroth and he said he would be willing to do a special game night to invite you.
Sephiroth's office is too small to play with three people, which is why we were unable to invite you.

Date: 2024-05-16 12:47 am (UTC)Oh man, I'm so happy right now!
I promise it'll be fun!
What kind of snacks do you like???
Oh, oh! And I also have a special edition Godzilla version of Jenga! Do you guys want me to bring it??

Date: 2024-05-16 01:28 am (UTC)Do you mind if Dark Nation comes?
Sephiroth says you should bring it. We'll have to do this at his apartment since it's quiet and there is space for the three of us to play.
