"That's why you need to keep a Healer around," Rikku said. "Just in case. Shame Yunie's back in Spira. Lulu knows some white magic, but she's more the black mage type, you know?"

"Guess the right resources go the long way." He gave a shrug of his shoulders. "Carrying a few potions and phoenix downs never hurts, either, yoto."

"You have those, too?" Rikku asked, bouncing on her toes. "Nobody has those! They look at Hi-Potions funny! That's --"

Rikku froze in place, eyes suddenly wary. "You're not a Yevonite, are you?"

"A what?" Reno was giving her another funny look. "Not last time I checked, yoto. This one of those things I'd know about if I was?"

He had to pause for a moment, here, as something else sank in.

...

"You tellin' me they don't have potions in this place? What the hell?"

"A Yevonite," she said, looking away. "One of the people following that bullshit religion. One of the ones that said we were the reason everything was happening. One of the ones that never questioned anything and destroyed our Home and --"

Slight pause. Still looking somewhere else entirely that was apparently very fascinating. Still no real tone to her voice. "No. No potions."

Great. He'd been here for a couple of hours, and already he'd managed to break the happy girl.

"That's. Uh." He was freakin' terrible at this reassuring, friendly stuff. "That sucks, yo."

But he was trying, at least?

"Sorry," she said quickly. "I'll stop ... whatever. Bugging you. Uh. Glad you weren't hurt, yeah?"

Probably not a very accepted way to end a conversation, but this one got all weird and twisty-turny on her anyway, and better that than her standing here rambling about the Yevonites and Home and crap he didn't care about.

Reno ran a hand through his hair and watched as she turned around.

Huh. That went well.
