VIII - Time is a brisk wind

[get_ur_zexy_on]

Events pass as quickly as they come in this place. Fortunately I was given ample time to record and test the properties of my own wings, in addition to the effects of several others by means of observation

[savagenymphxii]

Wow, Zexy, wit? And here I thought you basement losers were only good as cannon fodder.

[tries to hide pain from injuries]

[get_ur_zexy_on]

As usual, your insults wound me deeply, XII. And naturally I would not expect you to be familiar with such a thing.

[raises an eyebrow at her]

I am afraid you were never quite the skilled actress you claim to be.

[savagenymphxii]

[glares] The wings had uncontrollable side effects.

Do you have anything for pain?

[get_ur_zexy_on]

So I gathered.

[considers her request]

...I believe I have the ingredients necessary to make something of suitable strength. I assume you have tried a regular potion?

[zerojanai]

I assume you are knowledgeable.

[get_ur_zexy_on]

[arches eyebrow at newcomer]

Indeed, about a great many things.

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Zexion. How may I assist you?

[zerojanai]

Sakagami Kouya.

I suppose I can't learn about this place by just picking up a book.

[get_ur_zexy_on]

A pleasure to meet you.

And I am afraid not. The best source of information here is the Network. Of course, it largely depends on what it is you are seeking.

[madcuriosity]

Oh the wings were simply wonderful don't you agree Mr. Zexion! And everything is always so wonderfully exciting!

[get_ur_zexy_on]

I am glad you enjoyed them, Princess. And life here is certainly never dull.

[madcuriosity]

Did you like them Mr. Zexion?

[get_ur_zexy_on]

They were not entirely unpleasant, and they did provide a unique research opportunity. A strange sensation, to be sure, but a memorable experience.

[glacialscience]

Monetary reward for a week of watching the others stumble around, and get to see XII run into things. It is nothing less than some sort of a grand experiment.

[get_ur_zexy_on]

It is highly probable - social experiment on a rather grandiose scale with poorly defined guidelines. If nothing else, it provides a mild form of amusement.

[wegetalifetime]

Heya, Zexion. I saw this and thought of you.

"When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be."

[get_ur_zexy_on]

[narrows his eyes, unamused]

And why would such a phrase bring me to mind?

[wegetalifetime]

Well, you are pretty worked up about that "nobody" thing.

Oh, here's another good one: "Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you."

[get_ur_zexy_on]

If you knew anything about the nature of my existence, you would know that was quite impossible.

Fascinating.
