LOSS
So lately in Paradisa many people have grown pretty fond of Reno and think it's pretty cool to trust him. I mean other be an occasionally snarky bastard, he hasn't really done anything bad or make him downright unlikeable, right?
Which, I figure it's time that be shaken up a bit.
So starting either later tonight or tomorrow, Reno will be going on a loss that will regress him back to right before his first scene in FF7.
Currently at Reno's canon point (post-ACC), Reno is playing for the good side and trying to atone for all the shit he did. And after two years in canon and another 2+ years in Paradisa of not having to kill, kidnap, spy and do all other sorts of dirty tasks - he's been able to regain a lot of humanity and such. It's not very hard to be good in a place like Paradisa that encourages it.
With this loss, he'll be pulled back to a time where...that doesn't hold so true. Thanks to the events of BC, Reno has pretty much given up on humanity or caring about it. He's also working damn hard to ignore any morals that he has either. Which causes him to do stuff like:
○ Attempting to shoot at flower girls who try to run off.
○ Rationalize this by saying pretty much she shouldn't have tried to fight/run off.
○ Destroying a section of the world's largest city (it's said in production notes that Midgar is about the size of Tokyo, so imagine 1/8th of 12 million and...yeah) just because someone told him to do it.
○ Refusing to help his own side when they ask for back up simply because it's his day off. (these guys end up dead)
○ Breaking a guy hand with his foot then dropping him down a cliff
○ Yelling at a comrade for being weak when they try to thank him for saving her life
○ Setting the most damn annoying boss on your cast of characters in the underwater reactor (okay I'm just bitter about that)
○ AND HOW!
To the people of Paradisa? He probably won't fight unless really provoked. Though keep in mind? If he's able, he will have no problem killing you. If he's not, he'll simply leave once he realizes that or the fight has lost interest. He will kinda look like shitshit too. He will also have no memory of Paradisa, to make sure those two years worth of memories don't influence him.
And that's it! This loss will probably last a week or until I get bored.
