[video] Bunny cam

[dream-hare.livejournal.com]

[The video starts with a view of the Giza Plains. Poofy white things(Fuzzies) can be seen floating around here and there.

The camera turns to show Sephiroth standing a short distance away. He is staring curiously at a Fuzzy as it drifts near him. A sudden gust of wind blows it right into his face sort of exploding on contact.

He coughs for a minute before looking around dazedly. Then he shakes his head and stands unsteadily for a few moments.]

...I think ...I think I need to sit down.

[Why he felt the need to say that out loud is probably a mystery even to himself. He takes a few unsteady steps towards the Gold Saucer but, soon gives up on that and just sits down right where he is.]

[He might have replied if another Fuzzy hadn't been blown into the side of his head.]

Guh.

[He wasn't about to stay put just because he was told to. Instead he uses the materia to burn more of the Fuzzies that are in his way. He staggered in the direction of the Gold Saucer.

The Fuzzies might have been easy to avoid if he could walk straight and wasn't starting to see double.]

[Then you're lucky Vincent's fast when he wants to be, otherwise you might just be out of luck. He wants to avoid another incident with Hazel falling off the Piece, anyway.

Before Sephiroth can even have time to react, he's standing right behind the man, watching him trip over himself.]

[action]

[He stubbornly continued to stagger in the direction of the Gold Saucer. It probably helped that he was nowhere near the edge. Vincent's arrival was not noticed right away but, when it was...]

Go away.

[He didn't really care how childish that sounded at the moment.]

[action]

[optionalwangst.livejournal.com]

[A questioning brow raises. Did he just... really?]

I have no intention of doing so.

[But he'll carefully follow the man as he goes, making sure he doesn't run into any trouble before he arrives at his Piece.]

[action]

[He started to turn to reply but, either he was starting to see more than double or there were a hell of a lot of Fuzzies heading in their direction. He was really starting to wish he carried a Barrier materia.]

...You might want to reconsider that.

[It wasn't really that far to the Gold Saucer. He'd try to run if he didn't think he'd end up flinging himself off the edge.]

[action]

[Sephiroth's glance didn't go unnoticed, the ex-Turk's attention being diverted by the same, odd sound going in mass behind them. The other man wasn't hallucinating; more and more of those bizarre creatures were multiplying by the second, all floating over in their direction.]

...then, we move.

[And if Sephiroth didn't, Vincent would force him to.]

[action]

[creepy-son-of-a.livejournal.com]

[Sephiroth certainly hadn't been planning to just stand there. Judging by the fact that his vision was starting to clear the last one was starting to wear off. He wasn't about to let another get him if he could help it.]

...Suit yourself.

[He started towards the Gold Saucer again, not quite managing to walk normally. He was still visibly unsteady but, at least he was going in a straight line. Running would still be risky so, he decided to wait and see if his head would clear before the mass of fluff could reach him.]

[action]

[optionalwangst.livejournal.com]

[Sephiroth still wasn't running.

Reacting quickly, he spun around and fired several rounds at the monsters, a good dozen exploding into white puffs but quickly being replaced by the newer swarm. All the while, he moved quickly, no longer caring about the other man's pace, but still managing to stay close.]

[action]

[creepy-son-of-a.livejournal.com]

[Sephiroth was almost back to normal. The effects wearing off more quickly than he thought possible for such an extreme reaction.

He glanced at the advancing hoard of fluff, ignoring Vincent for the moment. Destroying them was pointless with how quickly they were replaced.

He decided that he was steady enough to risk running now. With how close the Gold Saucer was by now it would only take a few seconds to reach.]

[action]

[He tried to keep his mouth covered from the spores floating in the air, but he could feel it already. The Fuzzies were directly on top of him now, his sense of balance being sharply thrown off by an explosion of white and fuzz. But when the other man seemed well enough to run, he tried following suit, his own feet now extremely unsteady.

A few more shots were fired, driving off the nearest monsters. It gave them more time to run, and barracade themselves if they had to.]

[action]

[creepy-son-of-a.livejournal.com]

[Once inside, Sephiroth looked to see if any of the things had drifted in. The door was usually left open during the day but, he would close it once Vincent entered. The man had tried to help him. He supposed the least he could do was not lock him out.]

Don't go outside. [He said to the few confused employees that were staring at him.]

[action]

[optionalwangst.livejournal.com]

[Thankfully, he wasn't that far behind Sephiroth when they'd finally made it inside, nearly tripping over himself through the front door. The Fuzzies were close, but far off enough to be locked outside. His hand went for the nearby wall, waiting for this sudden, strange rush to wear off.]

...

[His other hand goes to the bridge of his nose, rubbing it gently.]

[action]

[creepy-son-of-a.livejournal.com]

[By now Sephiroth was fine aside from his head feeling just a bit fuzzy.]

That was very... unpleasant.

...Hmmm.

[What to do... If Vincent wanted to risk going back to the mansion when his head cleared that was his choice. But...]

If you don't want to risk those... things again there is a room at the inn you can use until they pass.

[With the remaining employees still running all the attractions for the few guests a room at the inn was really the only place to be alone.]

[action]

[optionalwangst.livejournal.com]

[He was being careless. It was the only reason those things held any advantage over his skills. But he'll shake his head once, straightening up and trying to conseal the effects a bit more efficently.]

I would prefer a similiar occurance to be avoided.

[He... had never seen anything like this place before, even if it was part of their world. Built a time after his slumber, perhaps? It looked ridiculiously childish, and embarassing to even consider taking refuge in. ...though it was either this, or risk looking even more like a fool trying to tear through those floating spores.]

...alright.

[action]

[creepy-son-of-a.livejournal.com]

[Sephiroth was certainly going to be more wary of the strange things he comes across from now on.]

Of course.

[He just hoped that Vincent wouldn't ask what he had been doing in a place like this. He assumed the other man had never been here. It didn't seem like his kind of place.]

The inn is in the area labeled as Ghost Square. The way from here is clearly marked.

I will be heading there in a moment.

[He then went to advise a nearby employee to make sure everyone knew not to go outside for the time being.]

[action]

[optionalwangst.livejournal.com]

[...Ghost Square.

Though not intentional, the implications seemed a bit obvious. But either way, it was a place to take refuge in until this situation passed, and Sephiroth had enough sense not to travel back out alone as well. ...or, as much as he hoped. He still didn't know enough about the man to trust his word.]

...hn. Don't make any... untoward decisions.

[He'll start to head down the halls at a subdued pace, in no rush to get where he needed to be. They were barracaded in here, for now.]

[action]

[creepy-son-of-a.livejournal.com]

I don't intend to.

[If he was going to say something else, he didn't get the chance. He was interrupted by the employee he was talking to.]

New 'friend'? [Said employee was obviously implying something besides 'friend'.]

No! Get your mind out of the gutter. [Sephiroth was clearly not amused as he walked away from the person, grumbling.]
