[Simon's feeling kind of down on his luck today; Denzel's gone, Cloud's still with Tifa, and Anise's kidnapping is sort of the icing on the cake. He's hanging out by the southern river closest to the shop plaza, attempting to skip stones.

Someone come cheer the kid up?]

It's in the wrist. [And here she's going to.. do it again]

See?

[ well he just wanted to make sure Simon didn't mind him intruding...
he picks up a rock and chucks it across the water! skipping it perfectly and precisely all the way to the opposite side. ]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

...Well, I'm trying to skip them.

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

[fffff]

How'd you do that?

[mog-summoner.livejournal.com]

Like.. [She's gonna pick up a rock and attempt to skip it..but it ends in a plop]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

[Watching. Huh...]

In the wrist? You have to turn it?

[action]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

I dunno... we're not really brothers, so...

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

...Sort of like that, I guess. [Only with less fail.]

[mog-summoner.livejournal.com]

..Let me see you do it!

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Um... right. [Aaaaand tossing! ...It did a half skip! ...Sort of.]

[compos-mentis.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Relying too much on the arm makes the throw too hard; it'll go under quicker.

[outsetsailor.livejournal.com]

But you're still close.

[mog-summoner.livejournal.com]

[Well, better than what she did] How'd you do that?!

[sempre-ridere.livejournal.com]

It's all in the flick of the wrist. [ he takes a seat next to Simon, picking up another rock and holding it out for Simon to see. ] I guess the type of rock matters, too. It's gotta be smooth and round like this one, see?

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

I dunno. I just threw it.

[mog-summoner.livejournal.com]

Well that's not very helpful.

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Smooth and round... [Simon nods, digging around until he finds one that resembles Yamamoto's.] Like this?

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Huh... [In that case - Simon tries flicking it, and it manages to skip once before sinking.]

[action]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Yeah... we were brothers for a long time.

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Sorry.

[mog-summoner.livejournal.com]

It's okay...Maybe Vivi can teach me.

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Vivi? A friend of yours?

[mog-summoner.livejournal.com]

Yep! The only person here from my world apparently.

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Oh! Well, it's good that you have someone else here.

[compos-mentis.livejournal.com]

The angle it's flicked from is also important, but then I can't do everything for you.
