Heehee!

[It was the middle of the night, and this insane little man was laughing up a storm. To all those who were having beautiful dreams featuring mystical unicorns and lovely princesses, you'll find no apologies here. Kefka didn't care who hears him, in fact he wondered just how many could

[Well, someone just made her midnight training session a little weirder.]

I'm awake.

voice

[madlydancing]

[At least she won't be bored by the chirps of crickets anymore.]

That you are, but why so? Gazing at the stars or exploring wonders?

voice

[senmeanswar]

I'm doing some training. It's good exercise and it will help me think of strategies to use while fighting at night.

voice

[madlydancing]

You train at this time of night? Bo~ring! Instead of just training, why not go out and have some fun?

voice

[senmeanswar]

I'm not sure what kind of 'fun' other people have. If I had it my way, there'd be a giant battle everyday. Combat is my idea of fun.

voice

[madlydancing]

[Did she just say that!? Kefka almost couldn't believe his ears.]

Y-You're fond of killing things too!?

voice

[senmeanswar]

I don't know if I'd put it that way, but I suppose. My nickname back home is 'war princess'.

voice

[madlydancing]

"War Princess?" Hm...

[A pause]

I like the sound of that! If you're so good at waging war, then why not wage one here?

voice

[senmeanswar]

I'm no good at starting wars; you need diplomacy or sheer numbers to do that. The only thing I'm good at, ironically enough, would probably be ending wars because of all of the enemies I defeat, which would leave the opposing force wanting to surrender.

voice

[madlydancing]

[He let out an angry sigh.]

No you don't! All you really need for a war is weapons, explosives and people to KILL!

Who the hell needs diplomacy anyways? That's stuff is for the birds!

voice

[senmeanswar]

Well, all I have is my naginata and my training. I have no explosives or knowledge of how to make or get them. And as exhilarating as it would be to rush into a crowd of foes, depending on how many there were, I might not make it.

voice

[madlydancing]

For a "War Princess", ya kinda boring...

[Hear that? Kefka sounds so disappointed.]

Thinking things through doesn't always ensure a victory. It only gives you the illusion of victory, but never the real deal.

If you just think without acting, you're just wasting your time.

voice

[senmeanswar]

To be honest, you yourself have only proven to be somewhat eccentric. My training seems more appealing right now then talking to someone who goes on about dreams and explosives.

And I'm aware of the lack of action thing, it's just I haven't been presented with any good opportunities and I don't really want to just spring on someone.

[Though, there is that assassination mission she's gonna do with Izaya...]

voice

[madlydancing]

[Bah! She sounds just as prissy as General Leo in his opinion. Damn goody-two shoes...]

No good opportunities? So ya seeking work, huh?

voice

[senmeanswar]

Well, I'm currently working with someone else here. He's thinking of a strategy on how to handle someone here who he describes as a 'monster'. I'm going to help him take them down. Other than that, I'm doing nothing except training and looking for people to fight.

voice

[madlydancing]

Hm...?

[That little bit of news won his attention.]

Who's this 'monster' you're hunting?
