High skies.
The life of an airship captain must have been an amazing one.
What an amazing place the world was; where just about anyone could just.. own their own flying ship, and travel the world from the skies. That was a life worth living; visiting interesting placing, meeting hundreds of people, seeing the world from a birds eye view.. That was the life Tidus longed for.
But alas, he was only a shop kid. His drunken father owned a small swords shop in Rabanastre's low town. The store wasn't in exactly a 'convenient' location for business, in fact, Tidus' father only wanted it there so he could gamble and drink, and not have to walk so far to do so after work! Because of their location, and lack of business, they could barely afford to make ends' meat. Tidus often found himself doing odd-jobs around the city just for a little extra cash.
Bright blue orbs eyeballed the sky in would-be a dream-like state. A soft sigh left his lips, just as an airship flew over head in the clear blue skies. Both arms crossed behind his head, in a comfortable position, he lay there on the ground. Wishing and hoping, Tidus couldn't help but yearn he were a member of their crew. They must have had an amazing life. Something much, much more than what he had here.
Another sigh let out as Tidus stood up. Today's task at hand? Help one of the local farmers pick up a bunch of bails of hay. Yay. Hay. Tidus' favorite thing in the world to do. Only it wasn't. "Man, this is bogus.." he muttered, lifting some of the hay, and placing it onto the wagon.
If only he had someway to get aboard one of those ships.
A few hours later, Tidus finished his labor. His wadges were barely enough to cover the costly living expenses of living in the city. An exasperated sigh was let out as Tidus tried to make his way home. Wandering the almost completely emptied streets close to the palace, he couldn't help but notice a particularly tall woman with long white hair, and bunny ears. "Ah..?" Tidus hid behind a barrel, watching what the lovely visitor was planning on doing outside the palace gates.
