"Huh," Kankurou considered the mechanical monstrosity before him. The logistics of keeping it running were probably a nightmare, but the increase in defense and revenue would more than make up for it. He had to admit that he was a bit impressed by this floating garden.

He just wasn't as impressed by it as he was by the blonde bombshell who'd given the Kazekage's delegation a restricted tour. "So you're mobile. That's gotta be good for business, right?"

"On occasion," SeeD Instructor Quistis Trepe answered the question promptly, and pointedly did not say anything more. Balamb had initiated the talks with Sunagakure, but neither side was pretending the other was anything but what they were. A business rival from whom their secrets must be closely guarded.

Kankurou grinned in a way that made Trepe's hand twitch toward her coiled whip. Now that was interesting, he was getting closer. Smirking, he tilted his head back far enough to look down his nose at her, "Now, now, that's doesn't really answer my question, Instructor."

Trepe gripped the handle of her weapon and, for a few moments, looked right through him. The moment passed quickly though, but Kankurou didn't mind. They had all day for him to continue to find all her buttons.
