I talk about you now and go a day without crying (Active)

Character(s): Celes, Lightning (maybe open? Ask first)
Content: Two ex-military women meet
Setting: Muspelheim Gate area
Time: mid-day Week 21
Warnings: Uh... snark? none for now - possible 13 spoilers always present


Lightning had never heard of this city before, but for all she knew it could be some trick, more of the fal'Cie smoke and mirrors they were so fond of throwing around. Especially Barthandelus, though he also seemed to like making things impossibly hard on everyone. Lightning frowned as she stepped through the city. The answers she'd received from whatever the network system in this city was had been disappointing at best. Either everyone was a complete idiot or they'd all had their memories wiped. Knowing the fal'Cie, she wouldn't be surprised if the latter were true. Still, while she didn't intend to stay any longer than necessary, she knew she'd need to know as much about this place as possible.

So, with that in mind, Lightning set out on a quest to find out what else was around. The city was large from what she could see, much larger than Bodhum, probably on par with or larger than Palumpolum and that thought would have been unnerving had she not been trained to deal with fear long ago. Shrugging her annoyance and uncertainty off, she walked around. Sooner or later, she'd need to check her brand. If it looked any the worse for wear, she'd have to find some way of turning it back. She didn't want to end up a Cie'th, but neither did she want the other option.

Sighing to herself, Lightning approached one of the other gates and looked around for one of her companions. She hated to think that Bartandelus was trying to get them pissed off at him by splitting them up.

"Oh that's interesting..." Celes mouthed, as she looked at the camera. The last one of these she'd seen was much bigger and bulkier than this model. Why she could hold it in her hands! And there was something strange about this technology. The type she was used to was powered using Magitek, but these devices appeared to be powered by something different. How much she'd bet Edgar would love to get a hold of one of these things.

"This is an interesting device," she finally said with a nod. "I don't think I've ever seen anything like this in Figaro. These type of monitors are usually restricted to the Magitek Research facilities in Vector. But perhaps... perhaps you've never heard of those places either." She was beginning to imagine that a lot has changed in the world since the disruption of the Waring Triad.

She decided it best to address her locations now. After all, it was the right thing to do after all the help she had offered. "I'm afraid that both of those places are nothing I'm aware of," Celes stated matter of factly. "And the last I heard of a cocoon, it was a hard shell of a caterpillar before it became into a butterfly. I'd imagine that living in a cocoon would be rather cramped."
