[Anyone out around the festival in the evening in Violet might notice someone tall, slim, in a silver and lavender kimono, silver-opal hair partly done up, full makeup, and preened to the hilt; a slightly less dead looking than usual Feebas carried in one arm with gold ribbons running through his “fin”, while a Pidgeotto hops along behind.]

[Yes, Kuja’s out enjoying the festivities, a touch more on the “trap” side than usual, and in an unusually good mood; feel free to go bother him, mistake him for a lady, etc!]

[Zidane gets this close to hitting on that before it dawns on him...and then he's glad he recognized Kuja before he actually said anything.

That would've been mighty awkward, and he would've never heard the end of it between Kuja and Ritz]


What's with the getup, Kuja?

Why, the festival - I thought I'd make the most of it. []

[...Yeah, if Zidane catches wind of that, Zack'll be getting nudges from him too. Hur hur you got caught in that trap, mister]

Is that what's going on?

[]

Apparently the story is that two lovers in the heavens had neglected their duties in favor of spending time together, so the lady's father separated them by a river of stars. She pleaded for a chance to see her lover, and her father relented that on this day every year, if she was diligent in her work, she would be allowed, but he neglected to rebuild the bridge; the magpies heard her weeping and offered to make a bridge of their wings every year so they could be together.

[Zidane follows the indication, looking at these things and recognizing that, at least, they're quite foreign to him]

Sounds like a play.

I'd be surprised if there weren't a theatre or two that had taken inspiration from a myth like that.

[] I was told that there was also a tradition of writing wishes on slips of paper and hanging them up with the decorations, in hopes they'd be granted.

[From what Zidane's heard, this world lacks dedicated theatre troupes, though he's really hoping that's inaccurate. Would be a terrible shame if it was the case]

Wishes, huh? You gonna give it a try?

[] I've certainly considered it. You?

[Perhaps Zidane'll just have to try and remedy it one of these days, if he can. And he wonders about that look, but he's unsure whether to comment on it]

Not too sure what I'd ask for, right about now. Guess I'm hoping the others are doing alright without me, but I'm always hoping for that.

[Though something in his tone suggests he feels he's letting them down by not being there]

The friends I remember you having were not exactly the sorts to be easily gotten rid of - but then, it can't hurt anything, can it? []

[action]

Date: 2011-07-08 06:26 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] heartsteal.livejournal.com
Guess not. Never heard of anybody getting too many well-wishes before...

[If anything, he'd hope that'd reach them, wherever that world was]

And perhaps whatever might watch over people isn't bound to just the one world. []

[action]

Date: 2011-07-12 04:44 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] heartsteal.livejournal.com
Yeah, maybe...

[Zidane hasn't invested much thought in these things, despite meeting a goddess]

Either way, it is a lovely festival, so we may as well enjoy it.

Does seem pretty interesting, at least. Never seen people dressed this way before, except Yuna.

It's entirely new to me - but then, I've only dealt with Terra and Gaea; I'd presume Yuna is one of the others from other worlds?

Yep, place called Spira. She and Jecht're from there, I think it's why they remembered so much.

Having others to act as reminders... [] It somehow doesn't seem right for you to've been thrown into something like that without any of your comrades from home.

I don't know all of how it works, but I wasn't the only guy in that situation. Besides, I'm not sure I would've wanted any other friends risking their lives in some war.

[action]

Date: 2011-07-21 06:03 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] silver-lucifer.livejournal.com
There is that ... I don't know how things went in the aftermath, but at least some of those involved had a chance for a peaceful life. []

Sounds that way, from what Cecil's said. Can't say much since I haven't seen it for myself.

...One can hope that he's right and you will be returned to your life; still, it does sound like the others you'd known on Gaea escaped, if you and I were the only ones involved that were from our world.

It's probably better that they didn't have to go through that.

...You know, I think Light was the only person from her world at all.

[action]

Date: 2011-07-21 07:14 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] silver-lucifer.livejournal.com
So it wasn't entirely just taking one person from any given world... []

Does it help to hear that, if all does go well, you have a princess waiting for you? []

[action]

Date: 2011-07-22 06:19 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] heartsteal.livejournal.com
...Y'know, Bartz said something about that too, but I would've thought I'd remember a princess.
