[The camera blinks on focusing on the background where the pilot is standing at a window. Pulling open the tattered old drapes he lets the light spill in, revealing a sleeping figure in the foreground.]

Morn'n starshine! Up an at'em, sure you wanna get a looksy at that floorspace, tell me if it'll do for your crazy R and D's an--

Huh.

[Turning around he scratches his temple under his goggles before striding over to the figure. The scream focuses and reveals the clear profile of Professor Lucrecia lost in a deep sleep.]

Still dose'n eh?

[Despite finding her in the street during all the chaos he took her plight lightly just as a way to psyche himself out and not lose his cool. Taking off his glove with a pull of his teeth, he touches two fingers to her neck.]

Pulse is still stable but I'm no doc.

[Glancing up at the blinking screen his concerned demeanor snaps into one of that familiar steadfast urgency.]

Yo Vin, if you're out there an' not flip'n your shit, you best get over here, 510L, otherwise I'm take'n her over to the clinic. Sounds like everyone's taken their chill-pills 'bout now.

So that is where she is... I see.

[rocket-man26.livejournal.com]

I saved her is what!

What do I got thug writt'n all over me!? @#$% these accusations.

[rocket-man26.livejournal.com]

Finally someone not loony. @#$% the irony KILLS ME!

She's alright, jes, well, woman wont wake up no matter what I do. Couldn't get her to the hospital dur'n all that madness, so I'm trot'n my way there now.

[adventlead.livejournal.com]

Good for you, thank you, congratulate yourself for not completely ruining something.

Now stay there and I'll get her.

love the cid XD

[withoutawing.livejournal.com]

Ah, good. At least she was somewhere safe before all that hit.

Do you need a hand?

[rocket-man26.livejournal.com]

Ruin? Cid Highwind never ruined a damn thing in his life! Also you can screw right off, dude, I'm already on my way out the door an' like hell am I hand'n her over to some no-name jes'cause he tells me to.

[adventlead.livejournal.com]

I'm her brother, and a lot more reliable than you, old man.

[rocket-man26.livejournal.com]

I found her 'round Thursday evenin', just lay'n in the street when everyone started having panic-attacks. Just got her right inside and figer'd I'd wait out the crazy-wave.

Sure don't mind, Vin hasn't got back to me, makes me wonder if he caught the insanity too.

[rocket-man26.livejournal.com]

Psh, she didn't say nothin' 'bout no brother, brat. I don't give a @#$% what you think, I got her covered.

[withoutawing.livejournal.com]

No, he did not. We were talking a little during the incident.

I shall be there shortly.

[adventlead.livejournal.com]

Fine, I'll go to the hospital and take care of her there. Once I arrive you should leave.

[rocket-man26.livejournal.com]

Well thank Gaia for that then!

Cool I'll hold up till you get here, her lil' girl Amu's come'n along too, poor girl's worried sick, bless her heart.

[rocket-man26.livejournal.com]

Nope, nothin' doin', Vin'd be pissed if I left her alone with some no-name.

[withoutawing.livejournal.com]

Anyone else interested in her besides her friends?

[rocket-man26.livejournal.com]

Some guy claim'n to be her brother. Never heard'a him, but he sounds bit too obnoxious for my liking.

[adventlead.livejournal.com]

...She's not a good sister, but I have to take care of her anyway. Vincent knows me very well. We're great friends. So don't worry your senile little brain over it.

[rocket-man26.livejournal.com]

Ksh, nice try champ, if you're such good buds with Vin who's so @#$%'n socially inept he should have a disease named after him I'd'a heard 'bout you.

[adventlead.livejournal.com]

Vin's just easily embarrassed. He doesn't want people to know I saved him.

[withoutawing.livejournal.com]

Hm, I believe that would be Kadaj. He has decided to treat Lucrecia like a sister for some unknown reason.

[rocket-man26.livejournal.com]

Vin needed save'n huh? You gotta great sense'a humor, kid, I like you! Make me giggle like a schoolgirl s'more, what'd you save him from?

[adventlead.livejournal.com]

What, is the comfort of my sister's flesh not enough for you, you sick, twisted old man?

But if you really want to know, it was monsters.

[rocket-man26.livejournal.com]

Ka-daj.. Kadaj.. now I.. I swear I know that name-ah.. OH SHI-- you mean THAT MAGGOT?

@#$%# and he's s'pose to be some remnant'a you an.. paradoxically speak'n he shouldn't even BE HERE at the same time as you an'--phew that's a doozy on even my awesome brain.

Look. I don't got any prob' with you, but that lil' shit's somethin' else entirely. Can't believe I'm ask'n this shit. Is he trustworthy? He's try'n to nose his way into this business an' I got the right mind not to leave him anywhere alone with .. well, your ma of all people here.

[rocket-man26.livejournal.com]

The @#$% you on about MAGGOT? Anymore dishonorable shit spew'n outta your goddamn mouth an' I'll turn you into a unicorn with blunt-end of my spear!

Well ain't that sweet'a you, gotta real heart'a gold there, kid.

[adventlead.livejournal.com]

I'm not a tiny, white worm that feeds off on dead flesh as tempting as that sounds, so I can't be a maggot. Now, that's no way to talk to Lucrecia's brother.

More pure than yours will ever be.

Tell him I will be there if you do not like the idea of him hanging around her. I do not think he has too much malice in him to harm her, quite the opposite in fact.

Yes, so I have been told about my relationship to him. But since I have seen people from different times appear here, most of them from after my slip into insanity, I am not too surprised of his appearance.
