[ phone call - Ffamran Mied Bunansa(Balthier)]

[nethi-cite.livejournal.com]

[Actually quite exhausted now after his hasty trip back to Wutai, it was nearly a miracle that Cid remembered to give his son a call. Especially since he was yawning and almost asleep at his desk.

Ring, ring, ring!]

[Balthier is sat in the cockpit at what would be the crack of dawn. He looks tired, and who wouldn't after being called in the middle of the night? Either way, he has information to share that he believes is rather important.]

My apologies if I have awoken you early, particularly the new parents. However, something has come to my attention and I believe it'd be best if you all knew.

According to Dr. Cid, Vayne is likely to wed Queen Garnet til Alexandros.

Whilst I'm quite sure you'd all adore the chance to congratulate them both, may I point out how particularly hazardous this situation could become?

[He sighs and shakes his head, giving a slightly annoyed look.]

If he were indeed to become King of Alexandria, it leaves him with wealth and power beyond our current knowledge.

Shouldn't all you leaders and politicians do something?

[He smirks.]

After all, I am but a sky pirate. Then again, it always takes the leading man to thicken the plot.

[He ends the transmission.]

[The feed comes on to reveal Beatrix standing upon a spot that appears to be the roof of Alexandria castle, as the famed crystal is nearby behind her. She turns the phone to show the aerial view of Alexandria spread out and covered in a light snow, as the sun crests the horizon.]

The most beautiful sight I have ever known. I felt it worth sharing for others without the privilege.

[She lingers in silence on the roof until the post times out and turns itself off.]

[Backdated(?) to just after this thread. Seymour has just chased Weiss out of Guadosalam when he clicks on the Sky Phone. At first, the only thing that can be seen is Seymour's infuriating smirk. And then he turns so his back is towards something else... something very, very large. Those who have ever seen Anima before will recognize her at once. And she's roaring in the background for a time, but he seems not to notice.]

If anyone else would like to take the time to pay their respects to Guadosalam, I would suggest you do so with caution. Harm shall not befall the town as long as I am the leader of the Guado.

[And you guys will get a closeup of Anima's writhing upper body to make his point before he turns the Sky Phone off.]

[Video | Filtered to Larsa and Vayne] - 20 Breaking the Contract

Lord Larsa and Lord Vayne.

I would have preferred to do this in person but it does not seem possible at this time. I will be blunt and get straight to the point.

SeeD formally requests that we dissolve the contract between us concerning.

I believe that this is for the best for all parties involved.

[The image crackles to life showing Rikku standing at the bow of a large cargo airship, holding a map, her hair blowing wildly in the wind. Behind her are several rows of large Worker machines that have been modified with armor. They are a variety of colors and sizes, but all share the same large, bulky-humanoid appearance and featureless, empty faces.]

Hey Mr. Vayne! It's Rikku. You're order is ready! We're on our way to you now and will be there soon, E ruba.

[She turns the phone to show off the machines.]

Thirty-six machina men, best we could do on short notice like this. And there's crates of some stuff we found that seems designed for their use, weapons and tools and stuff, a couple for each guy.

And I brought some other stuff too! You can look through it and see what else ya want, ya know? And some other things I was thinkin' about that you might...oh, hold on...

[Rikku shoves the map under a block and moves away, the phone swinging wildly showing blurry images.]

drendo-drnaa taknaac bund! Hu, BUND! Dryd'c DRYD FYO! DRYD F-

[The whole ship lurches sideways and Rikku gives a startled shout as she tumbles to the deck and the phone clicks off.]

[ phone call - President Laguna Loire ]

[marquisofthesky.livejournal.com]

[Unsure if his newest friend is alive and well since Laguna began his world tour of Gaia, the Marquis decides to give the stalwart adventure a long overdue call.

Ring, ring, ring!]

[ Nanaki is on an airship, the Water Mirror safely tucked away. ]

I shall be arriving in Wutai soon. I have also uncovered more information about the mirror.

[ He frowns slightly, tail twitching. ]

I have been asked to return it to the Queen in Alexandria when my business in Wutai is finished, but... what was said about this mirror makes me wonder.

Father, I'm going to meet some people in Treno. I'll be home soon.

[audio opens to someone's muffled complaints in the background before they're covered up by the voice of the man making this posting.]

Vayne Solidor, we've made our arrival in Wutai. Genesis will need a day to rest from the trip here before he can work, but if you so desire, I can come meet with you while he is resting.

[Balthier is exceedingly tired as he has been up most of the night discussing politics (and weddings) with his father and his friends. Now, however, something has come to his attention and he believes he must bring everyone on-side. Seated in the cockpit of his airship, a shirt on but open, he clears his throat.]

President Rufus ShinRa. I am Balthier.

It has come to my attention that the land of Wutai originates from your world. Whilst that is but a minor point of my reason for contacting you, I have been informed that you hold a distaste for the man Vayne Solidor.

[He sighs, closing his eyes for a moment before continuing.]

Vayne comes from my world, as do Marquis Halim Ondore IV, Princess Ashelia B'nargin Dalmasca, Prince Rasler Heios Nabradia, Prince Al-Cid Margrace and Emperor Larsa Solidor.

I would ask that you return contact to me. I've the connections with these people that may help solidify any position you wish to hold in this world and aid in crumbling Vayne's.

By your word, President.
