Papa? I... wanna ask you something, if it's okay...

A-and you shouldn't be so shy about getting married! Uncle Zack says getting hitched is friggin' sweet. ... He said not to say it like that though.

EDIT:

...Where do you want me to dig the hole?

What could happen to me that couldn't have happened in the other tunnels?

It's better to dig into the mountain, even... it's harder, but the tunnel roof is more stable... it's safer than going under the river.

Because it's too close. The barrier is in the mountains, Simon, you know what's behind that? The Malnosso's headquarters. What if they caught you snooping around and took you?

But they always send people back anyway...

I won't get too close to the barrier! Tell me where it is and I won't dig that far!

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

That's not the point! I don't want you taken at all!


I already have a vague idea what Sephiroth's up to, and I know it's dangerous enough that he wouldn't tell me what it was. I don't want you involved.

Papa, I want to do it! I want to be useful!

P-please...!

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

...No.

I'm sorry, Simon. You're useful without this, and I'm not going to let you risk yourself because you're trying to prove something.

Isn't it enough that I need you...?

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Y... you're just being selfish... you won't even let me try...!

A-and I'm not just trying to prove something... I-I'm trying to...

...I'm trying to be more like Papa...

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Maybe I am being selfish. But damn it Simon, I'm sick of losing people!

You don't have to

Simon, I've done reckless things and gotten hurt, but you're seven years old. You're a child, my child actually, and it's my job -honor and duty- to protect you, not the other way around. Stop trying to be like me and just be yourself.

Y....

You're...

You're not my real papa!

A-and I will be myself! I'm Simon the Digger! Stop trying to protect me from all I'm good for!!

...No. I'm not your real father.

But I'm looking after you. And my answer is still no.
