[Given some of the things he'd been hearing about the place, Setzer had almost thought the half-seen glimpses of something very much familiar out of the corner of his eye were more a sign of him starting to lose it than anything. Needless to say, the fact that he walked through a door only to find himself there was a more than welcome surprise.

And naturally, the first thing he does is see if she's still in working order (thankfully, yes) and if he can actually fly her (no, unfortunately).


By the time he actually turns the video on, he's seated in the captain's cabin, looking quite pleased with things, even if he can't fly. He's missed his ship something fierce, these days.]

Not quite the turn I'd expected, given the hands I've seen played out. But I dare say I won't complain too much about having found a stroke of luck in this game.

[Oh how she does not want to be the bearer of bad news.]

Your airship?

[video]

[wanderlusting.livejournal.com]

As I'd last left her.

[She looks away a bit. Behind her are rocks and what looks like the ruins of a scrap of land. In the distance sits a lone shack, beaten and weathered.]

Just be careful. This might not be what it seems to be.

I'd imagine were she mine in truth I'd be able to fly her properly.

[video]

[magitekrune.livejournal.com]

I assume you haven't been able to so far?

[video]

[wanderlusting.livejournal.com]

Not for lack of trying.

[She sighs a little.]

I was afraid of that. Last time, the illusion lasted only as far as one room, but we brought things back with us. I wonder if it's the same this time.

If I find something to return with, we can test the repetition of the hands.

[video]

[magitekrune.livejournal.com]

[She nods.] That sounds reasonable enough to me. Good luck.

[video]

[wanderlusting.livejournal.com]

And the same to you.

[video]

[magitekrune.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I'll need it. Your hand is always better than mine.

[This might be because he trusts in the time-honored gambling tradition of stacking the deck.]

Luck smiles most on those who never expect it.

[Hence why he's usually got better odds than she does. Not counting the time she used Edgar's double-sided coin.]

Until we change the odds and make our own luck. Isn't that how it goes?

[video]

[wanderlusting.livejournal.com]

Quite so. Best to make your own luck, I've always said.

[Terra's just departed Kefka's Tower a moment ago. The next time she steps through a doorway, the young woman finds herself....in Setzer's cabin.]

[Setzer just offers a polite nod.]

You too?

[Action]

[heavenslament.livejournal.com]

Well, I first arrived in Kefka's Tower.

[Shudder.]

I like this place much, much better. You're lucky.

[Action]

[wanderlusting.livejournal.com]

As would I. That tower's hardly a place I'd wish to return to.

[Action]

[heavenslament.livejournal.com]

I checked, but he wasn't there. I don't think he's in Gaia.

[She smiles, relieved to be able to focus on other things.]

It's nice to see your airship again, Setzer. Can she fly...?

[Not a question she'd ask usually, but since this can't be the real one....]

[Action]

[wanderlusting.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid not. But at least she's a welcome sight.

[Action]

[heavenslament.livejournal.com]

[She nods.]

That she is. Maybe the others will find their way here soon.

...I wonder how long it will last?

[Action]

[wanderlusting.livejournal.com]

[He shrugs.]

Not as long as we might like, that much I'm sure of.

[Action]

[heavenslament.livejournal.com]

I suppose...but other airships have arrived here, right? Maybe the fact that we're in yours now means we'll see it sometime soon.

[Action]

[wanderlusting.livejournal.com]

It's not the best odds, but it's better than they where before I'd imagine.

[Action]

[heavenslament.livejournal.com]

[Terra nods, perking up.]

People said it happened before, that they walked into places from their memories...and then some of them showed up afterward.

...I hope this doesn't mean we'll get Kefka's Tower, too.

[Action]

[wanderlusting.livejournal.com]

As long as he's not in it, it might be tolerable.

[Action]

[heavenslament.livejournal.com]

[She shakes her head.]

Even without him, it's still nightmarish. Gaia would be far better without it.

[Action]

[wanderlusting.livejournal.com]

I'd imagine it has no few places of nightmare already.

[for-ephramad.livejournal.com]

[Have the most wry of smiles.]

Now that is a gambling hall.

[wanderlusting.livejournal.com]

[Setzer just grins back.]

She's one of kind.

[for-ephramad.livejournal.com]

[Weird men that give inanimate objects names, represent!]

Her name?

[wanderlusting.livejournal.com]

The Falcon.
