"…Chief what is that?" Vincent stared at the thing behind the fence.

"It's a chocobo." Cid smiled at it. "Beautiful ain't she? Took me six tries to get a hatchling this color."

"She's …pink."

"Ah know." Cid beamed at the bird.

"Why do you even have a chocobo?" Vincent felt his eyes water from looking at the brightly colored bird standing in direct sunlight.

"For kicks mostly." Cid shrugged. "Ah raise and breed 'em for the hell of it."

"You have more?" It wasn't so much a question as a semi-horrified statement.

"Sure. Jilly here was one of my first so she always come to greet me." Cid raised his hand and the chocobo pushed her head against it.

"Jilly?"

"Yeah, Jillybean." Cid ruffled the pink feathers. "Shera named her."

"……" Vincent felt his eye twitch.

"I need to go check on the others, you wanna come?" Cid smiled at the older man.

Jilly turned and eyed Vincent, tilting her head from side to side before looking back at Cid. The blonde raised an eyebrow at the bird.

"Well?" He asked Jilly. She looked at Vincent again before kwehing loudly before grabbing the bandana off of Vincent.

"She likes you." Cid grinned at the startled gunman. "C'mon, lets go see the others." Cid grabbed his flesh hand and pulled him towards the barn. "Dinah and Buck were laying a few weeks ago. I wanna see if its hatched yet."

Vincent just allowed himself to be dragged towards the building, slightly baffled as to how the loud, crude pilot could possibly have the patience to raise chocobos.
