[dishonest]

Charming. [ is the first thing that can be heard when the video flickers on. and yet, the only thing that can be seen is a helmet. maybe this was deliberate? or perhaps the person on the other end has no real grasp on the technology he's using. whatever! ]

A trip to the library postponed by the inopportune temblor. [ a pause. ] But, as you can see, I am much less inclined to shy away from conversation -- you could almost say I'm feeling charitable.

[ he sounds pissed. or at least, like he's trying to contain the utter contempt he feels. ]

Hello, citizens of Shibusen.

[ itp: the most underwhelming overwhelming intro of all time ]

[The feed clicks on to show Sephiroth's image. There's a slender brow that raised up at the words, and he found that there was something about the man that caught his attention.]

And you think that we care one way or another to whether you're 'feeling charitable'?

[dishonest]

Humility was never one of my virtues, I'm afraid.

[Video]

[pure_lineage]

[Strangely enough, it's one of Sephiroth's, even if he wouldn't allow others to know that.]

And just what would your virtues be, hmm?

[Video]

[dishonest]

Tenacity, perhaps.

[surprisingly enough, this is true.]

What, are you a humble man?

[Video]

[pure_lineage]

An interesting word choice.

[There's a subtle smirk as he spoke those words.]

Do I give you the illusion that I'm such a man?

[Video]

[dishonest]

One must always choose his words wisely.

[ he turns the Shinigami communicator to him. the smile on his face is certainly mirrored.]

I'm merely curious.

[Video]

[pure_lineage]

[It is through his own experiences of himself and those around him, that Sephiroth knows that those who choose their words have some form of ulterior motive. This is why he was silent in thought for a moment while considering such words even as the man in question's face was finally revealed.]

Then you will have to satisfy your own curiosity, if it's strong enough of course.

How nice of you to grace us with your presence. Don't you sound charming.

[The sarcasm. It drips.]

I'm sure access will return soon. What sort of things do you enjoy reading? I may have already checked a few books out to your taste.

You look interesting but you sound boring. Which is it?

[Voice]

[ih8spiders]

[There's a sound like a very quiet laugh]

His helmet looks interesting. It might be valuable.

[Video]

[alphaspider]

[looks toward the side.]

But not fashionable. My forehead is too big.

[Voice]

[ih8spiders]

Well... I suppose. [Even he knows that much.] Those horns are... [Hideous, he wants to say, but he can't just go insulting someone he's never talked to on their own post.] But it will cover your forehead.

[Video]

[alphaspider]

But not all of it. That would be... odd. [At best.]

[Video]

[ih8spiders]

It'll cover your tattoo. [Maybe.]

[You know what, this conversation is weird after last night.]

[Video]

[alphaspider]

My tattoo is perfectly fine where it is! [protest] Do we have dinner?

[And you started it.]

[Video]

[ih8spiders]

[It's just a short burst of daring, an attempt to go back to the usual status quo, but even that has started to desert him...]

I don't feel like cooking.

[16hitmagnum]

Hi.

[Yeah. She's really picking her nose.]

[Voice]

[arachnid]

Ooooooooh, someone sure thinks they're special.
