[If anyone had asked, Sephiroth would have been hard pressed to actually pinpoint what had woken him up, but really in the end, it mattered little if it had been the sunlight, scent of clean salt air or the sound of water and people moving about. What mattered really was the fact he was rather obviously not where he'd originally lied down to rest

[The redhead came into view on the phone, backdropped by half-destroyed (or worse) buildings, looking just a little worse for wear. His expression is one of amusement and a bit of disbelief. Revolving-Door-Sephiroth-Syndrome. He did hope the General would forgive him for being a bit crass here. But he'd lace it with friendliness. After all, from the tone of the man's voice, he was likely sane. Likely.]

Hey there, General. Hm. Hope you don't take this the wrong way, and I swear there's a good reason for it, but I gotta ask - what's the last thing you remember before arriving here? I promise I'll explain later, but it's really, really important.

[Cue the sheepish but stubborn lil grin on his lips, and a curious tilt of his head.]

[The General's gaze is for a moment more interested by the scenery behind Reno himself, but the distraction is barely noticeable and he rather quickly turns his attention to the frazzled looking red-head.]

Considering I doubt this line is secure for a detailed answer, I will merely state that I was dealing with investigations in Modeoheim before awaking here. If you desire more details than that then I would prefer to speak in person or over a more secured line.

[cue a rather brief pause and it's the general's turn to pose a question to the Turk on screen.]

Might I inquire as to what happened to your location?

[Video]

[turks_reno]

Modeoheim, huh?

[He goes quiet for a moment. Sephiroth was sane. This was a very good thing. He'd explain why he had asked the question later - at the same time as Sephiroth would explain more on what he last remembered. For now? He glanced behind himself, frowning at the destruction, then sighed and returned to Sephiroth's view with a somewhat saddened look on his face.]

I've no doubt some of this is our work. But most of it is from something we learned was called a 'Lunar Cry'. Basically? A crap-ton of monsters was dropped on this place. Hundreds upon hundreds. And some of them were really, really big. Most of this is from one of those big ones - the thing was larger than most of the buildings in Midgar, if that gives you any idea. The smaller buildings littering this city didn't stand a chance.

[He frowns again, then arches a dark red brow.]You wouldn't, by any chance, be in any position to get over here and help? Or any of the towns that got hit with this monsteriffic bullshit? We can catch up on info then, too

[glorious_mercy]

Perhaps, once I learn where to acquire transport out of the town I find myself in. What is your location or the location of other distressed towns? Also what form of aid are you requesting precisely?

[Not that he had anything against being asked to do menial labor, but he'd like to know if he was being asked to deal with repairs or being asked to clean up whatever monster presence still remained around the afflicted towns.]

[championofwutai]

You know, you're not going to find a lot of them here.

[video]

[glorious_mercy]

[Well now, this was somewhat unexpected. No surprise shows though either visibly or verbally. He merely inclines his head slightly in acknowledgment of the young lady.]

Princess Kisaragi.

I take it by your words that not many from the company have been brought to this world?

[video]

[championofwutai]

Well, not that I care. But there's only a few Turks. And I think I've seen Rufus once or twice.

Like I said. Not that I care.

[video]

[glorious_mercy]

I can't imagine why you would either.

[Well beyond the old adage that one keeps their friends close and enemies closer, considering the fact that Shinra had just conquered the girl's homeland, he can fully understand any hostility from her toward the company itself]

Would you be able to tell me if there are any others here from our world that aren't part of the company?

[shurikenfemale]

[Not again. She acts professional and turns on her pokerface, not letting herself even slip until she knows what his history is.]

Yes, sir?

[Considering the last Sephiroth she ran into nearly had her head when she didn't address him as such, she used the formality again. Cissnei likes being alive.]

[video]

[glorious_mercy]

Might I inquire as your location at the moment, Cissnei or are you currently within the same location as Reno?

[From the way the redhead had spoken it sounded as if all the few personal here were in that city but it was always wise to get confirmation instead of just making assumptions which could come back to bite one later.]

[video]

[shurikenfemale]

Same location.

[She didn't want to immediately ask him what he last remembered. It seemed that he was still of sound mind, so far.]

Sir. [Hastily added.]

[video]

[glorious_mercy]

I will be heading to your location then once I have found suitable transport to Lindblum.

He had noted the slight pause tween the answer and the last word but for the moment he simply ignored it, passing it off as nerves on the Turk's behalf due to the pressure they have no doubt been under and the desire to not offend him with informality.]

[Noah is surprised to see the familiar face on the mooglenet, but the memories of shared commiserations when he'd had to process the man's discorporations during the conflict between the gods classifies this man as 'friend', for now. He gathers his thoughts and opens a feed to the broadcast, face a neutral blank with most of his background hidden from view.]

General Sephiroth. I have not seen you in quite some time. You are doing well, I trust?

[Video]

[glorious_mercy]

[It takes a moment for the General to reply to the man, his expression showing nothing of the silent confusion as he tries to place the man's identity and actually fails to do so. He's not really surprised at the stranger knowing his name, but the greeting given by the man seem to suggest to him that he should by rights know him or at least know his name.]

I am doing well enough at the moment.

[cue a rather small pause and he finally gives up trying to wrack his memory for the identity of the man on the phone]

If you don't mind me asking, could I have your name?

[Video]

[strays_pride]

[A bit of a surprising question, he'd never taken the general as one inclined to forget names. Then again, it is Gaia and Faram knows what this world could affect.]

Noah. Noah fon Ronsenburg. I had been going by Gabranth when we met, if that sounds more familiar to you.

[Video]

[glorious_mercy]

[He notes both the names and while the first doesn't ring any bells so to speak, the second almost sounds vaguely familiar for reasons he has no way of explaining at the moment. Still, he was reasonably certain he had never actually met the blond before.]

A pleasure to meet you, Noah, be it the first or second time.

Though I confess I still don't recall our first meeting...might I ask when it occurred?

[video]

[glorious_mercy]

[The stoic facade seems to briefly break, expression softening at the sight of Zack before something in the boy's manner causes the possible hint of a smile to vanish behind a veil of impassiveness once more.]

Zack. I am fine.

[a brief pause]

Might I ask why you didn't expect to see me?
