[The speaker's voice is laced with a bit of annoyance, but much stronger than that is weariness. The rustling of trees' leaves being blown in the wind can be heard in the background.]

This must be a joke. Nothing but a cruel, extremely unusual joke from a being with a sadistic sense of humor. I am well acquainted with the fun of irony at this ( Read more... )

[Rygdea was just minding his own business messing around with the journal here, until he heard this rather familiar voice. His jaw almost dropped once the message played. While the man didn't state his name, he stated several key terms that confirmed who he was. Unsure if he should even reply, Rygdea does so hesitantly.]

No way...

[He paused briefly before continuing.]

Cid, is that you?

Cut the crap and give me your hand! You're hiding something, and now you're trying to change the subject.

[Oh, man. If Cid has a brand on his right hand, Rygdea was going to go ballistic.]

Must you overdramaticize everything? This subject has gone on for long enough.

[Now he's just glaring at Cid now.]

There's a brand on your hand, isn't there?

No. Let the matter go.

[He made a note to himself now. Hightail it out of there as soon as possible, and find a damn pair of gloves.]

Then why won't you show me your hand?

Because you are being immature about this entire situation.

[He sighed. If was branded by Barthandelus, then maybe he was going about this the wrong way. He was sure that Cid would eventually tell him the truth. It would just take time for Cid to trust him in that way.]

Fine. C'mon, let's find you some clothes.

Thank you. What we need to focus on now is our current situation.

[At least Rygdea seemed to have dropped the matter for now. For that, he was grateful.]

Yeah, yeah.

[He grumbled as he lead the way towards the shops nearby. They both were lucky that everything was free in Luceti or else they would be doomed to their current unflattering attire. Whoever thought it was a good idea to ditch people here half-naked is obviously a jackass.]

...[He stopped in front of a shop that caught his eye.]

Look at this.

[Rygdea gestures towards the window display.]

Hm?

[He glanced towards the window, then. Hopefully, they'd be able to find clothes soon. Gloves were a priority, but he wanted to have something to wear other than this pair of white pants.]

[Little did Cid realize that Rygdea was inching further and further away from him now. Putting some good distance between him and Cid, Rygdea faced Cid as he readied himself for a tackle. If Cid was gullible enough to think that his subordinate was going to just let the issue go without getting a proper look at that hand, then he obviously doesn't know Rygdea well.]

One...

[The countdown initialized.]

Two...

[Cid didn't seem wary of anything until Rygdea yelled--]

THREE!

[TACKLE! This was a standard military tackle, any grunt can do this but it takes a little more effort to take down a man of Cid's height and size.]

[Cid did know Rygdea well, and was hardly a gullible man. However, the stress over the entire situation at hand (no pun intended) was enough to make him momentarily forget just how stubborn Rygdea could be, and the lengths the man would go to to get what he wanted.

He wasn't even able to react before he was tackled to the ground.]

The hell are you---?!

[Once he knocked Cid down to the ground, Rygdea instantly went for the man's right arm. Yanking it forward, the captain froze once he saw the smooth curvatures of the black brand. Encased within white, the mark of the Barthandelus was inked upon the commander's skin just like he feared.]

[He quickly pulled his hand back, though he knew it was too late. Rygdea had already seen. Cid sighed frustratedly, chastising himself for giving Rygdea's maturity too much credit.

What interested him at the same time, though, was that his brand looked different. White, frozen over, just as Fang's was. ...Hm.]

Idiot.

[When Cid snatched his hand back, Rygdea was jolted out of his shock.]

Liar!

[He hopped off Cid in a huff.]
