She remembered the conversations she would have with her mother and Serah. She was always happy and smiling. But then their mother fell ill. It was just before she died. After school Lightning went with Serah to their mother’s hospital. Serah kept trying to run, but Lightning held onto her hand, saying “Don’t run, it’s dangerous.” over and over. If it was like always, she would have just been saying that, while trying to run herself. —Lightning Farron : Final Fantasy XIII : Episode Zero (via the-seeress-yeul)
