It's Good to be King and Have Your Own World

[The screen blinks on, set at an odd angle - sideways on the ground, cobblestones clearly showing in most of the picture, along with some rather charming buildings that certain SeeDs might recognize from a certain spider chase. Those, though, are mostly obscured by the sudden moogle foot and paws that appear, trying to bat something away from the device.]

No, don't do that, kupopo! You're going to break it and we jus-

Nonsense, I'll put it back together once I'm done - this really is an inconvenient arrangement; why did you have to add so many buttons to such a small device?

They all have to be different to dial oth- WAIT! KUPOOO-

[Pseewwww. The screen goes dark again.]

[Several moments later, it clicks on again, from a different angle - moogle-height, this time. The neon "Nautilis" sign can be seen behind a man with long blond hair, tied away from his face, wearing mostly blue clothing that is also partially armor and holding a tiny screwdriver and a pair of pliers he probably got from a moogle. On the ground in front of him is a Sky Phone with the cover opened and thoroughly half the bits and parts extracted and laid out on the ground in front of him in neat rows.]

Fascinating... This seems to run on such a small power source, yet displays capabilities beyond any of the magitek-

Kupooo. [The moogle is plainly worn out by this man.] Please, just take this one and keep it in one piece, kupo!

Ahh, thank you. [He looks up to take the device, and Edgar's face is shown clearly for the first time as he peers at the screen. He seems to consider something for a moment, then slips the phone into a pocket.]

Are you sure this isn't a dream?

[She raises an eyebrow, crossing her arms.]

Didn't you already arrive this week?

[He starts a little at the sudden voice, pulling the phone from his pocket once again to see why it's talking like a person...]

Amazing...

[And then he catches sight of Rydia. Ahhh, that's a slow, confident, and charming smile coming out now.]

I've yet to meet you, but I enjoy the idea of changing that in the very near future.

[Video]

[eidolon-soul.livejournal.com]

Oh, we didn't meet. I was...busy that first time, but I heard about it belatedly.

[Her brow furrows.]

You really don't remember arriving earlier?

[Have a faintly amused bunny woman.]

The moogles do not seem to appreciate your curiosity.

[sonoffigaro.livejournal.com]

Then they need a better spirit of inquiry! Improving the technology can only be ach-

[Wait... were those ears? This dream was turning strange indeed.]

[Knows that look, mostly used to it by now--but perhaps she's a tad more self-conscious than before.]

You believe that you might improve these devices? That is a worthy goal...yet perhaps done away from the moogles' eyes.

[Here, have a very confused looking Terra staring into her phone, eyes slightly narrowed, head titled to the side.]

...Edgar? Are you okay?

[video]

[sonoffigaro.livejournal.com]

[Ahhh, always a good voice to hear!]

Never better, Terra, though I'm wondering what the cooks are using in their soups now.

[video]

[alittlebitesper.livejournal.com]

[Wow, lookit that. It took Edgar all of thirty seconds to already be confusing the poor girl.]

But...you arrived a few days ago, not...uhm...

I'm not sure what you mean about soup...

[A strange sense of deja-vu rises within Ashe as she looks upon the blond man's face - surely he'd arrived earlier in the week; hadn't he claimed to be a resident of Figaro?]

Forgive me, but you seem oddly familiar, for one newly arrived... Had you not made an earlier announcement over the device?

[video]

[sonoffigaro.livejournal.com]

Even for a dream, I wouldn't call that first accidental attempt an announcement.

[He still thinks he's asleep, sorry. Also, lovely lady in the screen - Ashe gets a charming smile.]

And would you be willing to tell me your name?

[video]

[mademyresolve.livejournal.com]

Not that; I had meant some days ago. Perhaps I am mistaken. You, however, are not dreaming.

[Ashe offers a small smile in return, considering - she knows this man is familiar, reminds her of someone...]

Ashelia Dalmasca Nabradia. And... yourself?

[video]

[sonoffigaro.livejournal.com]

Not as far as I can remember, though if I did, my compensation would be seeing your sweet expression. And who might you be?

[Perhaps a little young, but still cute.]

[notathiefcole.livejournal.com]

Edgar?

What are you doing out there now!

[Video/Filtered] *threadjack*

[eidolon-soul.livejournal.com]

So, did he just disappear and reappear that quickly?

[Video/Filtered] *threadjack*

[notathiefcole.livejournal.com]

I've never seen anything like that before.

[Go away, Locke, you're not a cute girl.]

Attempting to wake up - if my dreams have you in them, I'd prefer another.

[arrogant-flirt.livejournal.com]

They gave you two?

[Considering the wreckage is still spread out on the ground at his feet...]

Not exactly.

[There aren't - okay, yes, he's a twin, but Sabin isn't his exact double by a longshot. Also, why aren't you a hot girl if you know his name?]

I beg your pardon? Have we met?

[ooc: meant to tag sooner but alas, I'm suffering from some fail at the moment.]

What the...?

[ooc: /sending the fail-fixing fairy!]

[Ahhh, a voice he recognizes.]

Sabin? You're here, too?
