[the feed comes on to Cloud... seemingly undressing himself? with some nice and dramatic
background music accompanying his movements. Looks like our poor RPG protagonist isn't used to wearing 1920s clothes. He's dressed, oddly enough, like Charlie Chaplin. Or well he was before he shook off the jacket and the bowler hat. He's currently struggling to undo the tie around his neck. The cane is resting somewhere on the floor.
Cloud apparently for once knows his guide is open; he opens his mouth to say something to it and a blank card shows up above his head. He stares at it for a few seconds.]
[He continues to stare at the card long after it disappears. He scratches the back of his head, seemingly baffled. Finally, after a while, he tries to speak again]
[the second he says this, another card shows up-- though this time, it seems to have a multiple choice...?]
[Cloud doesn't say anything until the finger moves from the first choice to the second, and only then does his mouth move to say the words. That's... weird. Cloud stares at the card until it disappears and in the end shrugs it off. It's just meta!]
[and he gestures to his tie for good measure.]
((ooc: the twist: all of Cloud's optional thought choices are also shown in the dialogue cards, because they are all things he could say and I love being meta. REPLIES MIGHT BE SLOW since fuck you notifs and I am ... doing all these cards for shits and giggles.))
