[H/W - Unbeknownst Video ]

[The video opens with a certain pilot sleeping away, leaned up against a water fountain with rather colorful display behind. Oh, and a few moogles hovering around him in an almost vain attempt to awake him from a previously drunken stupor.]

He's not waking up, kupo... [One covers its mouth in worry.]

[Another shakes its head.] And he smells like a bar!

[One final other, with little paws on it's hips, sighs;] Try waking him up again, kupo!

[Cid's cheek gets poked and he flinches with a little grumble, swatting a hand at nothing.] Nngh... goddamn... bugs...

.... Again, kupo. [The pilot then gets his hair sharply tugged and he snaps to alert, that idly swatting hand suddenly moving with reason; sending a moogle to fly off-screen and hit the ground with a small noise.]

H-holy shi—you alright? [He moves to sit up more, wavering and leaning over to the floating again creature.]

Just fine, kupo! [Then, the three moogles all start to fly off, the one that was hit pointing to the screen.] This is your new phone!

[The voices start to fade off.] Welcome to Gaia! Take care!

Goodbye, kupo~!

.... "Welcome ta Gaia"? ... No shit. Where the hell else would I be? [Cid flops back down to light a cigarette, looking around suspiciously. ] Though I dunno where the hell this place is, [He starts getting up, taking a long drag and reaching for his new phone.] Pretty sure I was home in bed when I passed out. [Came the sigh and puff of smoke as he closed his phone, the transmission ending.]

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey! Never thought you'd show back here again, old guy!

[And suddenly there's an unamused look from the aging pilot.] Nice ta see you too. But I ain't that old, ya thief.

And why the hell's everybody keep sayin' "back"? I didn't go anywhere.

Hey. I haven't taken anything in forever! Well, last year, but that's besides the point.

'Cause you were here. Gaia does this thing where it'll pull ya here, spit you back home, then pull you right back.

Mmhmm. A'course it is. Still counts as thievin', girl.

So wait, I was home an' got dragged here then got sent back home ta only come back here? That what yer tellin' me? Who in the hell thought that'd be a good idea? I got shit ta handle back home if nobody noticed.

It was for the good of Gaia! [Where have they all heard that before.]

Um... sounds about right? You can blame Garland for that one. He's the one who started the spell.

[She huffs.] We all had things to do back home, gawd.

[Cid just rolls his eyes with a slight shake of his head as he sighs.] Still thievin'.

Garland? Ain't nobody found that bastard? Need's ta be punched in the face fer all this.

<[She hmphed at the thieving comment.]

Well, we're working on it! We're planning a trip to the Elemental Shrines to see if we can find the Chaos Shrine. That's where Garland's supposed to be.

And then? He's totally getting my shuriken to his face.

[gtfomyhighwind.livejournal.com]

We? [He questioned a little skeptically.] What, the whole group here 'er somethin'? Or Did'ja get another lil' band 'a misfits tagether?

An' good, sounds like the bastard deserves it if he needs a knife ta the face.
