[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?

Again with the childish behavior.

[He pushed himself up, back to his feet, brushing the dirt off of his pants.]

At least I'm not a damn liar.

[He glared at Cid for just a moment before entering the shop.]

For the love of... Will you stop acting like a brat?

[He grumbled, following him in.]

Hey, don't get mad at me because you are allergic of telling the full truth. I was more than willing to let you explain things, but you wanted to do things the hard way.

[Rygdea glanced over at Cid, just to make sure he didn't rough him up too much.]

Meh. You have a few scratches, but you'll live.

[Making Cid eat dirt actually lightened up his mood a little.]

And to think, I almost forgot how much of a childish idiot you were...

[Right now, Cid wasn't sure how to feel. He was still confused, more than anything, about the entire situation. He was angry at being alive again when he thought he would finally get some sort of peace. He was upset with himself for having failed himself, the Cavalry, and Cocoon as a whole. He was annoyed with Rygdea for being...Rygdea.

But he was slightly amused as well, at least. One positive, finally.]

[For the sake of shutting Cid up, Rygdea looked for something to toss at him until he spotted a familiar uniform folded up on the shelf nearby.]

Hey, isn't that your monkey suit?

[What in the... His eyes widened somewhat at seeing the familiar clothing.]

Firstly, it is a uniform, Rygdea. Secondly, how could that have suddenly gotten here?

How would I know? I am just as clueless as you are.

[Searching around the shop for other items, Rygdea spotted something towards the right where the clothing rack stood. He plucked through a few things before finding pieces of his own uniform there.]

Talk about convenient.

[He muttered as he eyed the armor. The bullet holes were still there too, clearly telling the story of what happened to him in Eden.]

[Rygdea's armor didn't go unnoticed by him. Neither did the bullet holes. Cid cursed under his breath. The number and placement of them was enough to tell him that he was not the only one of the two of them to die on Eden that day. Yes, he had a feeling it had happened, but it didn't make it any easier to see the proof that he had failed as both a commander and a friend.]

...it does not change a thing now, I know, but I'm sorry.

[The apology didn't go unnoticed even if Rygdea refused to notice it. It made no sense for Cid to apologize anymore, especially after seeing the brand. If Cid was made into a l'Cie by Barthandelus, then the man really didn't have much of a choice but follow the fal'Cie's command.

What bugged him the most about this whole ordeal wasn't the fact that he died, but more or less he was powerless to stop this from occurring. Rygdea wanted revenge against Sanctum, revenge for the sake of the millions they slaughtered over the years. Unfortunately, his thirst for revenge was quenched by the demise of entire Cavalry.]

Don't worry about it, okay?

[He shrugged his shoulders.]

I rather be dead anyways.

Stop with that. Pessimism does not become you, Rygdea.

[He meant it. Damnit, Rygdea, one of them had to not be glad for death.]

[He just sighs as a reply.]

You got everythin' right? I am sure we can find more stuff later.

[Changing the subject for the sake of sanity here, Cid.]

[Fine. Unlike you, Rygdea, Cid has the maturity to let the matter rest. Cid gathered up his uniform, making sure everything was there--and it was, down to every last ornament. It made no sense, but he wasn't about to start complaining.]

For now, this will do.

Better than nothing, right?

[He smirked, but it faded just as quickly as it appeared.]

I have no idea what we're in for here, Cid. But whatever happens, happens. I barely have any information on this town, but everyone here is from another place.

[Rygdea snatched a few more items before walking out of the store.]

The technology here is pretty dated, nothing like the stuff we seen in Cocoon. Hell, I doubt that half the people ever seen an airship before.

So I can tell so far. This village is very...quaint. It almost reminds me of a storybook, really.
