Attention: Maranda Soldiers, General Sephiroth

By order of General Chere, any and all of the Empire's soldiers present with the city are to respond to this post immediately, after which they are to await further instruction from myself. They are not to antagonize or injure the citizens, visitors, or wildlife in this city. They are not, in any way, to damage city property. Violators of these orders will be dealt with accordingly. Heed my orders and all shall be made clear in time.

Citizens and visitors of Paixao, if any soldier of the Empire should violator my orders, you are welcome to report the incident to me.

My sincerest apologies to General Sephiroth for my earlier...disappearance. A day has passed and I have only just returned to the city. I would appreciate it if you would contact me at your earliest convenience.

Thank you for your time.

Right, right... Just had to make sure. After all, you can't really trust anyone, can you?

"SOLDIER?" You'd think that if it was a big corporation and like the empire they'd at least have enough money to hire someone who can come up with an original name. But all right, I'll come hear what this guy has to say.

Mm. ~~Stranger than usual..~~

Would you like to rendezvous beforehand or shall I send you the coordinates?

A rendezvous sounds fine. Any place in particular? ~~I wouldn't trust the gambler if I were you.~~

How far are you from Joutenheim Gate? ~~Oh? Why is that?~~

About an hour or two's walk. ~~Because he tends to stick that nose of his into business that doesn't concern him, not to mention he's one of those filthy rebels.~~

Tell me your location. If we can't reach you via the train, we will meet you halfway from wherever it is you are. ~~Is he now? He failed to mention that.~~

~~Technically, you are too, my dear General.~~

~~Ah, ah, ah. I wouldn't go around accusing a general of treason if I were you...~~

[Private to Setzer]

Aw... Is the poor little Returner all broken up over losing one of his members?

[/private]

~~My apologies then. Allow me to retract my statement, if you would be so kind?~~

[private to Kefka]

Broken up? Me? Ha! Surely you jest.

[/private]

~~So... you admit to being a liar, then? My, my, what a wonderful person you're showing yourself to be!~~

[private to Setzer]

Jest? Maybe... But, oh, you're just making this too fun, not to mention easy.

[/private]

~~I must have mistaken her for someone else. An old friend, perhaps?~~

[private to Kefka]

If that was a threat, I've dealt with worse.

[/private]

An old friend just happening to have the same name? If you're trying to fool me, you're not doing a good job of it. If you ask me, you're just trying to do a little sabotage. You are, aren't you, rebel?

[private to Setzer]

Threat? Oh, no... For once, it isn't. Just a statement.

[/private]

~~Such a dirty term, 'rebel'. I'd much prefer 'gambler' if it's all the same to you. Besides, I'm only circumstantially related to that cause. I had something they needed, that's all.~~

[private to Kefka]

Looks like Luck's still on my side for now, then.

[/private]

~~And you could've left once they were finished. Are you a 'gambler' or a taxi service?~~

[private to Setzer]

Luck is exactly what it is.

[/private]

~~I fly where the winds take me. I can hardly be to blame if it happens to blow in a direction that happens to be convenient to them~~

Strikethrough aside, what is that supposed to mean, Mr. Gabbiani?

Let's just say that Fate is a fickle mistress and that you would do best to keep your eyes open, if the cards play out as I suspect they might.

Mmh.

My eyes never close, Mr. Gabbiani.

I should hope so.

Right now? The border between the coordinates of I7 and I6. Why don't we just go ahead and meet at the station? Less walk, less wait. ~~I wonder why.~~

Very well. I will see you there. ~~Is that concern I detect from you, Kefka?~~

[PRIVATE to: Kefka]

Regardless, I would prefer to have him on our side. He is from our world and that alone should ensure that our goals are somewhat aligned, if not ultimately. An alliance would benefit all of us at this point and would harm no one, least of all ourselves. At most, it is temporary. When we return to our world, we will behave as though it never was.

At any rate, it is my intention to watch him carefully, and I shall. I am not so foolish as to trust a man blindly, Kefka, least of all a man that claims to be a gambler at another game.

[/private]

Mr. Gabbiani will be joining us. I trust,as always, that you will behave civilly?

~~Concern? I think you need to work on recalibrating that sarcasm meter of yours.~~

[private to Celes]

Oh, you better believe it's going to be temporary. If you ask me, he should be executed the second we get back. He's an obstacle to the Empire's goals, a stepping stone that's a little too slippery to be left in its place. Best to finish throwing it into the river, hm?

Good to see you've got an ounce of sense in you, at least.

[/private]

Great. I won't blow him to bits if that's what you mean.

~~Perhaps.~~

[PRIVATE to Kefka]

The politics of our world may be dealt with when we return to our world. Know this: I won't accept rash behavior under the terms of this alliance even if it is temporary.

[/private]

I appreciate it. I am sure Mr. Gabbiani does as well.

[Private to Celes]

Yeah, yeah... You're as bad as Leo.

[/private]

[PRIVATE to Kefka]

I'll assume that is a compliment and take it as such.
