So the curtain rises!

My name is Kuja, and I hope I'll find all of you at least a little pleasant.  I'm not tolerant of the many idiots who seem to lurk around this website, and I hope you are all exceptions.

I must ask:  Is there a boy named Zidane here?

Before anyone inquires, the article of clothing I use to cover my genitalia is called a codpiece.  You may not refer to it as a thong; if you do, I will just ignore you from then on.

It's better than just being confused about the situation.

I am simply curious. You seem almost nothing like your old self, who would spit and dance on my grave if I were to die; you, however, seemed rather happy to see that I was alive, if I'm not mistaken.

[pimper-than-you.livejournal.com]

I guess.

. . . We went to Terra and met Garland.

[angelic-canary.livejournal.com]

Then it's settled!

Oh, that really does explain it. I suppose he told you of your origins, and how you ended up on Gaia? I hope that fool meets an end, somehow; he deserves to die more than that stupid, ugly Elephant Lady, Queen Brahne, did.

[pimper-than-you.livejournal.com]

. . . He said that I was created to replace you, and that because you were a destroyer, you were meant to die, like the Black Mages. He'd also made another Genome, Mikoto, to replace both of us. We defeated Garland, and then you killed him. But . . .

[angelic-canary.livejournal.com]

That is correct. I knew he hated me, and that you were intended to replace me, but I can't believe...he put a limit on my life. But...I-i'm going to...die? Wait, how are you still alive? Surely, I must've killed you one way or another, in a fit of rage! I hated you the moment I found out you were created!

[pimper-than-you.livejournal.com]

Heh, you tried. We fought, in Memoria. We beat you, and then the Iifa tree started going crazy, and . . . I found out you were trapped inside, so . . . I went after you. I wasn't fast enough, though.

[angelic-canary.livejournal.com]

Memoria? I have not heard of such a place. Would you care to elaborate?

[pimper-than-you.livejournal.com]

Garland said it was a place created from our memories. There was something called Necron there, that tried to return all the worlds to "zero". I think the crystal was there too, although we didn't see it.

[angelic-canary.livejournal.com]

I see... Memoria houses the Crystal of Life, then?

[pimper-than-you.livejournal.com]

Don't even think about it, Kuja.

[angelic-canary.livejournal.com]

Oh, don't worry! I don't even know where Memoria is.

[[OOC: Actually, I think Kuja created Memoria after he found out he was gonna die and went psycho-berserk, as a pathway to the Original Crystal. I may be wrong, though.]]

[pimper-than-you.livejournal.com]

*sigh* Yeah, I think it's in Memoria.

((OOC: I totally can't remember. Far as the script (http://db.gamefaqs.com/console/psx/file/final_fantasy_ix_script_d1.txt) says, they just kinda showed up there.))

[angelic-canary.livejournal.com]

How is Garnet?

[[OOC: I'm not really sure, myself]]

[pimper-than-you.livejournal.com]

She's doing better, now that things are settled down again. She's a lot stronger than any of us gave her credit for.

Why do you suddenly care?

[angelic-canary.livejournal.com]

I was just asking of her welfare, or do you not comprehend that? Actually, I wouldn't be very surprised if you didn't, knowing you.

I suppose some things never change....

[pimper-than-you.livejournal.com]

It's kinda hard to believe you're interested in our "welfare" when you were trying to kill us.

[angelic-canary.livejournal.com]

I may not really care if she dies or not, nor am I concerned for her. I simply asked of her welfare.

I am not going to truly explain why I asked in the first place; you wouldn't understand. Even if I did tell you, you would just be confused.

[pimper-than-you.livejournal.com]

. . . I'm starting to remember why I didn't like you.
