The same mistake can only be made so many times before it ceases to be a mistake and instead becomes just another symptom of stupidity. Fortunately for me, my father cornered the market long before I was born

If it wasn't for happening across the Turks, I would think that I was dreaming. But where they are, you can never be too far, can you?

Hello, Rufus. It has been such a very long time.

[ashenice]

You will have to forgive my lack of astonishment, Scarlet. My time in Vertere has desensitized me to the reception of unpleasant news.

[weaponmaker]

Now, now, my dear. It isn't that distasteful a place. In fact, it's actually rather charming, in its own quaint little way.

[ashenice]

In light of the fact that you were previously deceased, I shall give you the benefit of the doubt on the off-chance that the stress of dying impaired your memory. Allow me to remind you that my name is not 'dear', nor is it 'darling', 'sweetheart', or any other cloying nickname that you mistakenly think will endear me to you. Regardless of my own personal preferences, my name is Rufus. I suggest that if you must insist on calling me anything, you refrain from calling me anything other than my name. Though quite honestly, I would prefer if you cease talking to me and therefore make this conversation moot.

...Mr. Shinra...?

[ashenice]

Please ignore me, Yuna. My irritation is not directed toward you in any way.

[undersanity]

Are you the man Mr. Reno was looking for? The president?

He must have found you by now.

[ashenice]

I was a president omce, a very long time ago.

[undersanity]

It couldn't have been that long ago. You don't seem very old.

[ashenice]

It feels as if it were ages ago. In reality, it has only been five or six years since I controlled most of Gaia.

I take your subordinates were stubborn in their idea of entrainment.

I worry about Mr. Reeve.

[ashenice]

Far be it from me to suggest that entertain goes by the wayside in such dire circumstances.

Private; Unhackable;

While I fear that he might find himself on the wrong side of the Avatars, he is an extraordinarily resilient individual. That man can survive situations most people could not even dream of enduring.
