Was on my break and randomly thinking about Cindy’s schooling. Obviously not in Insomnia considering their policy over “outsiders”, so I'm thinking Lestallum for basic two year college and maybe some advanced studies in Altissia. If Lestallum is more of the local “State” college but Altissia is more akin to Oxford or Yale, idk... During this time she would be living in Accordo with her mother’s side of the family, staying in one of the guest houses until eventually desiring more personal space and getting a tiny apartment ( Lowkey hc that her mom’s side of the fam are a little overbearing in trying to convince her of staying because ✧･ﾟ:* opportunities *:･ﾟ✧ and she’s just constantly like ‘naaah fam, i’m good’ ) on her own.

This is also where she would meet the second love interest ( who’s name still alludes me but w/e ) in her life. While it wasn’t as serious as her previous relationship, it was more as a mutually respectable kinda friends with benefits... if that makes sense. They were just two cute gals being pals and digging each others vibe... pun kinda intended ;3c 

But they had two different life paths; Cindy wanted to pursue engineering more while unnamed gf was more of an artist who would later have her own gallery and art show. Eventually they parted ways and while Cindy doesn’t regret the experience she does wonder ‘what if’ from time to time.
