Warning: Character death



Dear Mr and Mrs Fair,

It is with great regret I have to inform you that your son, Zack Fair, died in an unfortunate accident while carrying out routine duties.

I will arrange for his personal effects to be delivered to you, together with any remaining pay due to him before his death.

Unfortunately, due to the nature of the accident, we are unable to release his body for burial. His name however will be recorded among those who died while on active service.

Please accept my condolences on this sad occasion.

Yours sincerely,

President Shinra

(signed on his behalf)

I've always wondered if they ever actually sent a letter. From what I heard/remember of the game, didn't his parents just say that he stopped writing and calling...? Which I honestly think is worse than getting the letter, because that uncertainty is absolutely horrible.

Yes I don't think they got a letter at all, and I think this one, if it were 'real' must have been either lost in the post, or someone pulled it and decided that it would be best all brushed under the carpet.

Zack~! *wails*

Nice touch with the "signed on his behalf." Bastards. I remember it being kinda weird to get the letter from Kunsel being like "You're dead? No way, man!"

No way Zack can die... totally sucks. >.< My friend keeps teasing me (as I'm lending CC & my PSP to him) that there's an alternate ending you can get where he doesn't die. -_- Bastard.

The best part about this drabble:

"President Shinra

(signed on his behalf)"

That just makes it worse and I love you for it!
