ffvii_100Title: Marlene Makes a Call
Characters/Pairings: Tifa, Marlene, Barret
Rating: G
Team: SOLDIER
Word Count: 100
Author's Notes: Because no matter how tough you are, when a toddler hands you a toy phone, you answer that shit.
Marlene was slow to make up her mind about Tifa, and for her part Tifa gave the girl her space. She'd never been bad with kids, historically- but that had been another life, another Tifa. The new Tifa was a raw nerve, a warrior and a trauma victim, and she didn't know that Tifa well enough to trust her.
Then one day Marlene hopefully held up a red plastic PHS to her.
Tifa turned a baffled look Barret's way; he silently gestured 'go on'. Tifa tentatively took the phone and held it to her ear as Marlene beamed approvingly.
"...hello?"
