Mission 14 : [Accidental Video] Technically before Uki's post, orz.

[argentimperator]

[The first, most visible thing when the feed blinks on is feathers. Sephiroth's wing almost seems to be dissolving from tip to base in a flurry of black feathers that blow away on the breeze. When those clear away a bit, Sephiroth himself becomes easier to see, taking a shaky step backwards. The angle on the video is such that it's impossible to see what he's retreating from, but the look on his face and the blood on Masamune's blade are both clear.

Even to the average observer, it's obvious that Sephiroth is pained and horrified. To the people who actually know him, and how subtle his displays of emotion usually are, the expression is like a blinking neon warning that he is in Bad Shape. When he speaks, it's barely audible and sounds... broken.]

No...

[The PCD feed jostles and eventually blinks out as Sephiroth snatches the device back up and, for the first time in his life, runs from something.]

And that is exactly why I need you to come.

You are an intelligent man, Sephiroth-san. I am quite sure you are not expecting any of this to be easy. But I am trying to help.

[The first three words are barely audible and he will deny it if anyone ever claims to have heard them.] I know, Mama.

[Then louder.] I... will be there later. I need to do other things first.

[He really hopes you won't mind having half a Gillian outside your clinic for a little while. He's pretty sure half is all that will fit in the street there. Seph is going to bring Ulquiorra apology food.]

[Oh, that's fine. She wasn't fancying finding something herself anyway.]

I shall be waiting, Sephiroth-san.
