Mission 7: [Accidental Video]

[argentimperator]

[As with many other people this week, Sephiroth has not been getting much sleep. Enhanced hearing plus this don't really mix well. Especially when the soundtracks from other people's posts are added in.

The clattering noise and the way the PCD feed is jerking may indicate that he just threw the thing. Who knows where it landed, but it's in a place where it has a good video of Sephiroth sprawled over his bed.]

♪If I go crazy then will you still call me Superman~♪

....I'm growing extremely short of patience with this. If there must be music, couldn't it at least be something classical?

[Whereupon the music promptly switches. Well... It's classical video game, anyway. Not that Sephiroth knows that. Nor does he know that the PCD is recording, so he buries his head under his pillow with a small sound of disgust.]

That's somewhat strange, really. I don't play video games. I never have.

[video]

[swordsinside.livejournal.com]

Not at all?

[video]

[argentimperator.livejournal.com]

Not at all. The closest I have ever come is a virtual reality combat simulator for training.

[video]

[swordsinside.livejournal.com]

Sounds fancy. Training for what?

[video]

[argentimperator.livejournal.com]

It was. The simulator was for training SOLDIERs. Elite fighters.

[video]

[swordsinside.livejournal.com]

That what you are?

[video]

[argentimperator.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[swordsinside.livejournal.com]

Scary~ So big and scary~

Who do you fight, back home?

[argentimperator.livejournal.com]

[He's not exactly unused to the sentiment, though he has his doubts she's sincere.]

The enemies of my employer. Monsters. Occasionally, escaped experiments.

[Shura is very rarely sincere C:]

A merc~ This place must feel just like home.

[video]

[argentimperator.livejournal.com]

[Eh, he's used to that. Shinra politics, man...]

Mm... Not quite. More like part of a privately owned military than an actual mercenary. Sometimes it feels more like where I came from than others.

[When the mad scientists are entertaining themselves? It feels a LOT like where he came from.]

[video]

[swordsinside.livejournal.com]

Either way, must be easy to survive for ya here. What're the monsters back home like?

[Shura is always interested in monsters and the like.]

[video]

[argentimperator.livejournal.com]

For the most part, yes. The monsters where I come from are extremely varied. Dragons, any number of mutated animals, griffons, behemoths, bombs, tonberries... The list goes on for quite a while. Not enough of them pose a real challenge, unfortunately.

[That last statement piques her interest greatly.]

They're just that easy for you, huh?

[video]

[argentimperator.livejournal.com]

For the most part, yes. Occasionally an escaped experiment or a mutation of an already powerful creature can be strong enough to be of interest.

[Really, all those shounen protagonists and little kids who want to be the strongest man in the world? Somebody ought to warn them that it actually kind of sucks.]

[swordsinside.livejournal.com]

What do ya fight with?

[Because Shura's proooooobably interested in sparring.]
