[Accidental Video]
[The video turns on, but it isn't by Seifer's hand. Water crawls over the screen before slinking across the ground to somewhere offscreen. Seifer's there though. Down at the lakeside by the docks and looking at someone also off screen. He looks tired. And maybe in a way haunted. A gloved hand, feminine in appearance, waves into view, as if dismissing something he said and he looks away, expression angry, but only at himself. His voice is hard to hear, partially due to the distance of the communicator and partly because he's actually talking quietly for once in his life.]
I know.
[A woman steps into sight, raising her hand towards Seifer and curling her fingers almost as if beckoning. She is no aethereal woman with an all-encompassing kindness as you might expect someone who until recently talked so much of being a knight to take such a servient stance to. Rather she's more a thing of dreams. Or nightmares perhaps. Much more than human at the least. And from the way she looks at Seifer there's no question that she knows every single thing about him: his dreams, his hopes, his fears. And both of them know it. (And she looks like this for reference sake, yes Seifer serves a woman who couldn't fit through a door without turning sideways, this is Final Fantasy okay.) For his part Seifer just lowers his head for a time before looking up at her.]
You're not even real are you. This is just in my head.
[She offers her hand. He doesn't hesitate to take it; immediately she shatters into a thousand droplets of water. For a long time Seifer stands there, hand still out held, staring at nothing. Eventually the video times out.]
