Title: Of Ephemerality and Immortality
Characters/Pairings: Vincent/Yuffie
Rating/Type: G
Team: Turks
Word Count: 100
Prompt: #18 - Spring
Author's Notes: Yuffie, in her early 30s, leaves Reeve's WRO and returns to Wutai. Vincent goes with her to Wutai as her companion.
Vincent attended his first cherry blossom festival shortly after moving to Wutai. He asked Yuffie if he should recite poetry.
“When were you born?!” Yuffie scoffed. “Two hundred and thirty years ago?”
“Seventy-three years.”
Yet he remained twenty-seven.
Old ladies in Wutai whispered of how he looked like a ghost from a folktale. There was truth in this, he was Shinra’s specter.
A fragile sea of pink floated overhead. Already blossom petals had fallen to the ground while the crowd ate, drank, and made the most of the ephemeral flowers. They enjoyed what is, for life is short.
