❄ The new kid ❄ [open]
Characters: [au2] Sephiroth and YOU
Setting: throughout the tower: dorms, cafeteria, library, floor 81, anywhere with monsters to fight.
Format: Starting in action, but will match prose
Summary: A new Sephiroth arrives in the Tower. He's a bit smaller than the other one, and looks a lot younger.
Warnings: Mentions of human experimentation.
The dormitories; room 1-18 and hallways:
[Waking up in a completely unfamiliar place isn't a novel experience for Sephiroth, but it isn't one he likes. He rises from the bed and quickly searches the room. He reads the letters he finds and changes out of the white jumpsuit as soon as possible, exchanging it for his own dark gray, utilitarian clothes. He has a pair of dark goggles that he rests on top of his head. He uses them at times to disguise his glowing eyes, but he doesn't pull them down now. The last time he woke in a strange place, it was cold and snowing. This is a warm room. It is preferable, but he still has much to learn about his current location. He ventures out into the hallway as soon as he's dressed.
He doesn't see Mr. Valentine. He's supposed to stay near him. Maybe he can find him somewhere nearby.]
Floor 1; the cafeteria:
[Who has absolutely no problem with eating his oatmeal? This kid. After all, soldiers in the field eat rations, and this is no different. He is eating the bland food at a steady pace with a remarkable lack of expression and quiet determination. Seldom has oatmeal been eaten more seriously.]
Floor 3; the library:
[Sephiroth doesn't see the need to ask for help, though he's frustrated that he still hasn't found Mr. Valentine. The network terminals aren't difficult to operate. With in no time, he's accessing them and looking through the old entries. He frowns slightly. A lot of these entries aren't very useful. He doesn't need to know about people feeling sick or playing pranks or insulting each other.
After spending some time at a terminal, Sephiroth makes his way through the shelves and locates a nice, extensive section of science books. In no time, he's amassing quite the collection of thick tomes on biology, genetics, and chemistry. He pulls down all the books that seem interesting. The ones on the upper shelves are harder for him to reach, so he leaps up several feet into the air and grabs those he's selected from the shelf. This acrobatic display seems effortless.]
Floor 81; the observatory lounge:
[Sephiroth has walked out onto the bulging glass windows, so that he almost seems to be suspended in midair. He isn't doing anything in particular. He stands silently looking upward, watching the stars.]
Any dangerous floor, near dusk:
[It's growing darker, and it's probably a good time for children to be heading back to safer floors, but Sephiroth, instead, is heading out. He has a sword with him, a rather long sword for someone of his height. Kids, swords, and monsters: always a good combination.]

I could prove it? [Sephiroth is a strong believer in proof.]
no subject
"Prove it"?
no subject
[For a start, he teleports, so that he's suddenly standing a few feet away.
He doesn't think to injure Shinji, although that could easily prove his point. He has been trained not to injure civilians.]
But I do not want to damage the library, so if you would like a demonstration, it cannot be here.
[He likes to give demonstrations. He used to give them for the executives.]
no subject
Demonstration? [He definitely sounds suspicious when he speaks again.] You're not going to make me find you a monster to kill, are you?
[Thanks, Evatrice.]
no subject
I can find my own monsters to kill. Monsters are not necessary for a demonstration.
Unless you would like me to kill a monster?
[Because he would. Since it's fun.]
no subject
[Obviously, he's still kind of mad about this.]
no subject
[Sephiroth does not approve.]
You will not have to do anything. We can go to the forest. It isn't far.
no subject
no subject
If there are any monsters, I will kill them.
[Simple enough, right? Sephiroth leads the way, heading toward the staircase which will take them to the forest.]
no subject
[He doesn't begrudge him his ignorance, this time, because of the whole "raised in a lab" thing he has heard about. When Sephiroth leads, Shinji follows behind him.]
no subject
[Mystery solved.
Once they're on the forest floor (ooc: if it's all right to move them ahead), Sephiroth is ready to begin his demonstration. First, he moves a safe distance away from Shinji.
He starts with teleporting again, disappearing and reappearing in rapid succession. Then he draws his sword and proceeds to go through a series of quick, complicated movements with it, moving much faster than any ordinary human could, fighting an imaginary opponent, blocking and thrusting.
When this is over, he leaps up into the air, a jump not unlike flight, raises his sword up, and then brings it down. A pale blue beam of energy comes from the sword and hits the ground, making a deep cut in the earth.
With this, Sephiroth comes to rest, teleporting to Shinji's side.]
That is a brief demonstration, but I could do more.
