Universe: Final Fantasy XIII

Story Title: Cradle Robber

Chapter Rating: K

Summary: Loosely following the original Fangrai-forever prompt #12: "With a technical 500 year gap in their ages, Fang learns of the term 'cougar' and decides to live it up for a bit, much to Lightning's annoyance. CP Bonus Snow or Lebreau are the ones to bring this word to her attention."

Text Messaging

Fang wasn't going to say that she loved everything about being transported five hundred years in the future. But once she had gotten up to speed with the modern day technology (seriously, was this something that even Anima foresaw?), Fang realized there were some things to be enjoyed enjoyed. one of them being the increasingly effective ability to connect with anyone in any part of the world.

In this new reality, one could message another and reliably receive a reply in just a second. Fang had been quick on the uptake in this regard (though she was not so keen on others; why people were so adamant about having their heads buried in their phones at dinner time, Fang would not know). The Yun could send a record of a song she liked, knowing that the one on the receiving side would be able to listen to the same exact recording or photos of artifacts that took her back to the Gran Pulse of old.

But mostly, she utilized this newfound power to send her friends one too many cat videos. And if there was one person she kept pestering, it was Lightning.

Lightning! (1:11 PM)

What's been happening? (1:11 PM)

Look at this, it's pretty interesting (1:12 PM)

Fang kept sending these messages, and there was warmth in her heart every time Lightning sent back a reply.

(1:21 PM) Cute.

(1:22 PM) I'm at work.

Maybe next time she could send a love song, Fang laughed in private to herself. It would have had Lightning embarrassed for days around Guardian Corps. But that was to be saved for another time. Immediately, the Yun typed out her next response.

Hey, if you have time, let's meet (1:25 PM)

Lightning sent back a response, no matter how small.

(1:43 PM) Okay

This is mostly not revised. As usual.
