Date: 26th Octeuril
Format: Video

( The video feed shivers into life to show a static image of a ceiling. This is Yazoo's second attempt to reach a family that he hasn't figured out isn't here, but he isn't ready to give up just yet! Sephiroth didn't make his Remnants that way, after all, and he has no plans to entertain the idea of being without his brothers. )

... Kadaj? ( A beat. ) Loz?

( The voice that breaks the momentary silence is soft and a little dreamy, his words spoken as though he's having difficulty organising his thoughts. He isn't pleased by the fact that he has to resort to this to reach his brothers: he's spent days looking for them, encouraged by the gentle pull of two more cellular signatures that match his own, and yet ... )

I know you're here. I can feel you.

( Eventually he'll learn that it isn't Kadaj or Loz he can feel at all, but until then? He's going to keep trying. )

Big Brother is with me, but— ( He thinks of the Sephiroth that he's slowly getting to know — a near stranger, nothing like the man he was in the splintered memories Yazoo holds in the back of his mind. When he speaks again it's with an edge of something like concern: ) There's something wrong with him. He needs help.

( The image finally tilts to show a young man with long silver hair, unnaturally bright eyes with slit pupils, and lips ever so slightly downturned with displeasure. )

... If what they say about Bonding is true, I need help too. I don't want a weak human.

( He leans in closer, his hair slipping forwards around his face as those strange eyes bore into the camera. )

Find me.

( Yazoo just looks at her for a moment, clearly a little bemused as to why she'd ask. )

Yes. A monster.

[prettyrocks]

[ The smirk that follows answers that question. ]

Heh. I could've told you that.

[ Get it? She's so funny. ]

[velvetshot]

( He just looks at her expectantly. )

How?

[prettyrocks]

[ Oh, come on, man! It's not funny if you make her explain it! ]

Asshole like you? Couldn't be anything but a monster.

[velvetshot]

I see. So, you think whether we become a witch or a monster is a sign of moral quality.

( Does this look like a fun kind of guy to you Tsutha?? )

Does your Bonded know you feel that way?

[prettyrocks]

[ Biiiiiiig sigh. ]

Augh... You're just a wind tunnel of dreariness, aren't you? You suck all the fun out of a room.

[ But, since this is a public forum, and Ferran might see this, she now has a responsibility to clarify. ]

My Bonded is a nice, kind, thoughtful person, who is willing to care about other people. I plan to support him through whatever transformation is ahead of him as best as I am able. Because I am also a kind, thoughtful person who cares about others. It's almost like if you pull your head out of your own ass, you'll find people who are willing to help you. What a surprise!

( Yazoo considers all that for a moment, then: )

You're incredibly full of yourself, and your obnoxious attitude is childish to the point of being off-putting. So far all I've seen you do is try far too hard to make yourself seem threatening and competent, which ironically only highlights that you aren't very good at coming across as either.

If your advice is to help me attract a "kind, thoughtful person" like you, I'll politely decline.

[ ......Okay. So he's boring and mean, but he's also cuttingly observant and insightful. Tsutha feels like a chest that's been opened, exposing the gold inside for any wandering scavenger to come steal.

She frowns. This isn't fun anymore. Setting her mouth in a hard line only disrupted by her tusks, she turns cold eyes on her watch camera. ]

Fine. Be that way. I hope you never find a bond.

[ She's done here. She closes her watch, shoves it under a pillow, and goes to find something she can set on fire to make her feel better. ]
