Big Bang Progress

22k words, approximately 13k of them contiguous from the beginning. I'm still in need of a title, since "Rikku is an Alchemy Genius and Bosses Penelo Around, which Penelo Tolerates because People are Dying, and Anyway they become Friends and Stuff and Save People with the Help of Auron, Lulu, and Yuna" is not exactly a great title. Descriptive, maybe, but not great.
