Cup 009: Iroh [Video]

[ginsengismyfave]

[Iroh's in the music room, playing a lively tune on his Tsungi horn.  And he's surrounded by Tribbles.  Loads of them.  Purring.  All over the floor.  They might be facing him, but it's hard to tell

Good. I can't sing. Maybe if I try that, they'll go away.

[ginsengismyfave]

Maybe you should. But I'm sure you are a better singer than you give yourself credit for.

[leading_monkey]

Nah, my friend Blank says I sound like a trick sparrow that's choking on a gysahl pickle - and the Boss didn't say anything. He just chucked this huge stone at me.

[ginsengismyfave]

[Iroh chuckles.]

Well, what do you think?

[leading_monkey]

They're probably right. [He laughs too] But there's this girl I know - her voice can stop time. It's...[he seems to be looking somewhere far off] just the most beautiful sound in the world.

[ginsengismyfave]

Ah, young love. Such a precious thing.

Have you told her how you feel?

[Iroh's sincerity is somewhat undercut by the Tribble crawling on top of his head and playing with his topknot.]

[leading_monkey]

[Ifrit's nose...had he really said that out loud? Though he's happy enough to use the stray tribble to stray away from the subject.]

Your hair is under siege.

[ginsengismyfave]

[He glances upward at the Tribble on his head.]

So it is.

[He reaches up and plucks the Tribble off his head.]

Kuja acts as though they might take over the world any minute. Shiva's tits, he's paranoid - someone might do it before he does. But I'm beginning to think he might be right if they don't stop multiplying.

[ginsengismyfave]

I do not think they will take over the world. Certainly they don't have that malicious intent. They just breed at an alarming rate. Er, fast enough to take over the manor, maybe.
