This place never does seem short of it's excitement, does it.

Reeve, there's something I need to talk to you about.

...

Somehow I feel like I would just be repeating myself.

I'm not really surprised that he would appear here though.

This is partly reminiscent of the Sandy Badlands.

... hm. The light is getting bothersome... I wonder how Reeve and everyone else is faring.

...

Madness. This is almost as bad as when Deepground was...

Reeve, stay close. We've already lost Tifa and I will not hesitate to subdue whoever harms any more of us.

Why is this happening at all?

Such a ruckus over such small beasts. It was beginning to feel like Wutai for a bit.

I wonder who else from our world has made it here... Why is one of the remnants living, though?

Hm. Reeve, how's your room?

...

I believe the correct question to ask would be where am I.

This isn't the Shinra mansion as I expected it to be when I entered it.

...

Hm. Strange.

Why does this computer type as I speak...?

To be awakened in such a place...

Hm. This network has proven to be a success. Yet it's nature as a whole...

[ Realising he's being transcribed, he stops for a bit. ]

Why do I have to carry these around...

comments?


( ooc; on what Vin's doing )

What.. is this..?

This entire place is filled with.. why on earth am I-- why is this place responding to...

...

...

SHIT.

[Edit] All those of the West. I would hope you do not act like my division and not tear each other apart. Sephiroth isn't one who tolerates such things and very soon neither will I.



( ooc )

...

It is time.

We have to hurry before it is too late.

This isn't good.. this isn't good at all.. Illusions.. how long do we have..?

Reeve was there, right in front of us.. and it was an illusion..

... Hojo's.. said that he is still sane, but how long?

Sephiroth.. you still have your status as an Avatar.. we.. Gaia damn it all, that idiot..

...

No, I wont be able to find him like this.. tch. Kayura needs to rest..

Sol, I might need to take a rain check on that drink date.

Reeve, this is too long even for you. Where on Interim are you? Why can't I shake off this feeling..

Has anyone seen Reeve?

I'm.. sorry I've been so out of it. I just managed to get together an outfit for the gala.. ah.

( Do I look alright..? )

Hm. If everyone else is ready, I believe we should leave.. I'll give everyone their gifts later..

... snow.

It's been a while since I've seen it..

Where is everyone?





[ooc; Vincent just returned from a happy nap! *random post of random.* xD ]

It looks like today's a very special day for a tiny snow fairy. Perhaps we should do something for her. A moonlit garden gathering, perhaps?

.. I feel strangely.. relieved.

Well, no matter. Hm. Reeve's acting lovesick silly. Now to find Highwind and see what he is up to.


( ooc; mind wiped )

Hm.


( [Not viewable to the bad guys, harhar, viewable to Allies] )

We have a few hours.. but..

We're supposed to be at the Court House.. Sephiroth, Reeve, if you're ready, let's leave.

The sooner this is over the better.

Highwind.. Rufus.. what are you up to..? Why wont anyone say anything..?

--!! OUCH!!!

..something shocked me.. what in the name of Gaia..?

ENOUGH.

I'm not sure why there is the need to raise unnecessary argument against what was a clear mistake of my own. I allowed myself, to fall into despair and anger and into the condition I eventually displayed- yet why the arguments and accusations against the integrity of my person? Admittedly, I am upset by my own behavior, yet I am re-reading the record of the situation and cannot help myself from being somewhat amused.

If someone has a problem against the way I -normally- perform my tasks, I would not mind hearing critique. As it stands, it appears many misunderstand my role as the Harbinger. Perhaps those that are unsettled will like to be reminded, that most of the Avatars are the ones who wish to maintain a sense of order and ease for the inhabitants of the city, and have been selected for their devotion to the task at hand.

I come from a world where people were ruled by the hand of power and a certain sense of fear. I am not entirely in agreement with this method, yet in a place such as this, a place which is settled between worlds of worlds and a place which is not the world we hail from, and a world from which we have no escape, as well as a place where people come from lands and worlds far beyond the vastness of our thoughts.. if there are punishments and disciplinary methods that need to be taken, what is wrong in that? There is a purpose and reason for all coming here, and from here is where we progress. To find a way to strengthen ourselves and find a way to reach the places we seek to be.

But what I will not. EVER agree to.. is the unjust accusation of the innocent. Be it against those who are free of guilt and crime.. or myself. We are here, we cannot expect the city to conform to the rules of our worlds. That is why there are sectors.. for us to be comfortable in environments familiar to us. I cannot say how long we will be here.. I cannot exactly say -why- we are here.. but I do know this. It is our actions that make this a Paradise or Hell. That is why there is a unified working system.. surely. Surely there is some good to the possible evils we seem to perceive here..

I do not take this task lightly. I do it with full understanding of my place and trust that no one will question that again.

I am grateful for small measures.. hm. Thanks to the biogenetic construction of my body, this hangover was hardly difficult to beat, especially in an uninjured state.

I am fine. Please do not worry for me.. I just need to have some time to think.
