[Video] Squall Leonhart - 21 Back to business

[tempest-lion.livejournal.com]

[ooc: Post-epitaph post. And we shall say that Nida got the Ragnorak back to Squall + company before disappearing for good. Squall SAW him disappear, so no need for a search party either. T_T ]

[The video feed turns on to see Squall sitting in what looks like the cockpit of a airship or a plane. The sight should be very familiar to the ff8 folks.]

Nida's gone. Back home I hope. I saw it.

But he was good enough to find this for us, so it's not all bad I guess.

[Filtered Private to Irvine + Selphie.]
We've got a job contract. Kind of. It's something like a favour too since I don't think they can afford to hire SeeD. I'm sure you both saw that phone post on the network from a guy called Red 13. His friends are worried, and wants transportation to Wutai and some help handling whoever's got their friend.

I said no to the transportation thing at first since the last anyone heard of from Seifer is at Wutai and I didn't want Garden anywhere near where he is, but now that we've got the Ragnorak I can say yes now.

So yeah, I'm assigning the two of you to this. Depending if I can talk Rinoa into heading to Jidoor with Sis to see Laguna, I might go with you guys as well, and after we deal with the job, we can scout around Wutai for Seifer.

Do NOT mention to Rinoa that Seifer's in Wutai. And don't say anything to our employers regarding the fact that I'm only charging them one quarter of the usual price that we'd charge for two/three person SeeD team.]

We can't take the Garden to Wutai, but we got a secondary form of transportation now. [Cue in an outside shot of the Ragnorak.] Will this do?

I'm sending two people along with you and Cloud and whoever else is going with you guys. Selphie knows how to fly the Ragnorak, and Irvine's a good shot with his gun. Depending on certain how certain prepations go, I might go along as well.

If you still want to hire us, please sign this.

[ooc: Pretend the font in blue is the link to a standard SeeD contract. Except the price has been slashed by 75%.]

There's SeeD business to take care of. Since Nida's gone, I'll be going along with Irvine and Selphie to take care of it. Do you mind staying with Sis while we do? Please? We'll drop the both of you off at Jidoor first to find Laguna.

System Log - Video 003

[Outside of Lindblum's airship yard with Cid simply standing there]

Wow, I'm surprised by the lack of technology in this world. Yet it seems everyone does fine with airships and buildings.

[Looks back at the screen] This seems to be the only piece of technology that exists, from what I see.

It seems weird.

[Curious Cid is curious]

I'm going to ask how these airships are built, hopefully someone out there or in there can help me.

[Turns off the device]

[Lighthearted]

Whoah! Never thought I'd see that.

[An apprehensiveness that only someone close would catch, hoping everybody is fine]

Was that an adventure or what?

Okay, just, say it and it'll be good, come on. Just say, "Hey Selphie..." no, no, no... "Selphie, how about we..." No. "So Selphie, I heard you like cowboys." No that's just stupid and I know it

...[Looks back at the camera] So, um...hi Selphie! Heh...

[Turns away] Balthier must be laughing at me right now and I know it. Squall too. Ahhh man.

[Looks back] Um...Sorry, Selphie, just a bad communication. Heh...

[Turns off the camera]
