ok but the main 6 cast getting a ton of gil from marathoning hunts and using it to splurge on some well-earned rest. they get a bunch of inn rooms instead of the usual skimping/splitting one or two among the six of them; now all of them have their own rooms. vaan and penelo are beside themselves, they don’t even know what to do with that much space. and the pillows. they’re so fluffy. vaan is nuzzling into his when he gets a wicked idea on how to disturb the peace that has settled over the third floor of the inn, so he takes one in his hand and knocks on penelo’s door before bed. she answers, sleepy-eyed, to get a facefull of pillow as vaan whacks her over the head with it. penelo starts shriek-giggling, grabs her own pillow, and she and vaan pillowfight half-out in the hallway at 11pm.
enter stage right balthier, who swings open his door with a Look on his face as if to ask what the devil these devils are up to, but before he can ask, vaan and penelo exchange a wicked look and ambush him. balthier getting his ass kicked in a pillowfight by two orphans. he of course makes a right racket of it as he runs back inside to grab his own pillowammo even though vaan is now on his back and putting him into a headlock. fran watches from the door grinning until penelo turns to her and smirks, and fran braces herself before grabbing penelo’s pillow from her; balthier suplexes vaan and grabs his pillow too. insert the sky pirates beating the daylights out of the orphans with pillows while ashe watches in the doorframe next to basch. then she mutters something in basch’s ear and he disappears only to return with a giant couch cushion that he hands to ashe who goes to beat on everyone because she can.
