X. [Video] (As I break hiatus a bit)

[The NV chirrs, signaling its awake state of mind (?) as it records. Its view focuses on Xemnas, who looks...completely healthy in comparison to most who have been affected by the recent plague. In fact, he turns to face the camera, a ghost of a smirk appearing and vanishing all within the second prior to speaking.]

So it continues.

[You all know what he speaks of. It's merely a fact that needs to be stated.]

Most of the city's population has been affected, and the numbers steadily climb. [Arms sweep out to either side of him with an air of aloofness.] But as you can see, I am among those who remain untouched. Perhaps it can even be considered...a "blessing." As various as the effects of this sickness are, I would have expected some of you to have a better chance of immunity.

[He pauses, in profile, letting his gestures become more fluid and grandiose.]

The heart...is a fickle and foolish thing.

How simple, how easy it is for one to be controlled by such feelings – dwelling upon these...emotions...only drive you further into your disease.

...But I suppose some people like to take the masochistic route.

[As soon as he says that, a hand goes up to yield any angered remarks that will come his way. He knows the gesture will do nothing to stop people from saying anything, but he expects it. And he welcomes it.]

Before there are any real words of protest, I'm certain there are a good number of you who are doing well enough. Guiltless...free of this plague. I could not have imagined the complaints and opinions given publicly upon the Network.

[The faintest hint of smugness is seen crossing his features.]

Come now. I cannot be the only one.



[[OOC: I'm going to be missing all weekend due to convention times, so...yeah. I'm good with backtagging if you are.;;]]

No, you are not the only one unaffected.

[Sephiroth has taken a small moment away from caring for his housemates; he is alone in the room he uses as an office, his once place of solace in a house full off illness.]


[[ooc: enjoy your convention! I'll backtag with you forever when you return!]]

There's a few yet who've weathered the hand being dealt.

And I wonder why you're so free of this plague, Xemnas.

[He knows why, of course, but that doesn't stop him from being angry, especially with Namine gone.]

Yes, it seems a lot is weighing on people, such a pity.

[Also perfectly healthy, and really enjoying the miserableness of people within the city]

I've avoided it well enough, for one reason or another.

[There's a look of contempt on Axel's face, but he quickly schools it into something a bit more professional.]

You should get that head of yours checked out, chief--at least some of us remember what it feels like to regret a bad decision or two. [Not that he expects you would regret anything anyway, but that is neither here nor there.]

Guiltless? I find that difficult to believe.

I'm doing well enough.

[So much delicious negative emotion and misery in the air lately. Fortunately, Phibrizzo's incapable of feeling bad about his food source.]

If you do find yourself immune, there are several places you might go to contribute to the research?

If someone tells you they are feeling well after learning the cause of this disease, they are an idiot.
