[ It's easy to let herself be tugged, though, to settle down just how Cloud likes her. This is comfortable, she thinks; the three of them together, just like this. Like it was meant to be. ]
Oh she's a comedian, so funny. [Nudges her] No, smartass, it's about the time I made Cid take three airsick chocobos to Gold Saucer in his precious airship.
[A Stern look at both of them. You two better be on your good behavior then.] ...so I had a race scheduled at the Saucer; just needed some money, had some time and got lucky with some chocobos, and Esther set up some space for us to stable some of them over at the venue so they could rest the night before.
[ Aerith sits up a little, just enough to look between the two of them, before she breathes out a gentle noise. Things are going to be weird any time they tell a story, aren't they? ]
You get all weird whenever I tell you that I did something cool, [Cloud accuses, because he has so it's not like unjustified or anything] I don't want you to be all like, "Aw damn Spike, you did what? I'm so jealous," or anything.
Anyway, Cid had this strict 'no chocobos' policy because I don't know, some weird story about when he was a kid and getting chased around by a mom chocobo, it was probably his fault. Anyhow, he doesn't like 'em. And the Highwind was originally gonna be for ShinRa, so of course it didn't have stables on it anyway.
But it was an emergency so I blackmailed Cid into letting me bring the birds on the ship.
I broke into his house and grabbed his flight school photo albums. [Cid could be surprisingly private about some things, especially anything that he perceived as making him look like he cares about other people. So Cloud of course threatened to show them to Yuffie.] Yuffie was already mad at him; all I had to do was wave a couple pictures in her direction and he caved.

Two golds and a black chocobo. Home-bred.

You cannot stop him from pouting, though. Two golds, Aerith!]

Cloud... How did you blackmail him?

I'm curious about that one, too.
