You were hamming it up as the tragic heroine
Characters: Ocelot and Sephiroth
Setting: Floor 88
Format: Starting prose, feel free to switch
Summary: After Ganon vanishes, two villains out for themselves meet. Nothing can go wrong.
Warning: Ganon is "dead", all fear the new evil overlords?
Ganon was gone.
It was almost a shame. The alliance was sure to collapse now, and that meant that Ocelot's pretense of being on Ganon's side was useless. It had lasted a long time, she supposed. Long enough that she had grown tired of hiding in the shadows, lurking just out of sight. As much as she favored Nesir, the girl seemed loyal to Ganondorf. Revealing her plans to overthrow him, to overthrow Ruana and the other administrators and prevent Ganon from ever getting his way if he was to return would be a mistake.
No, instead she would seek out the one man she trusted the most in this entire tower. Sephiroth was less predictable than Richtofen, but she knew him well enough to know that he was so consumed by self interest that any chance he had to further his goals would be taken. She was the same way, naturally. The two people from the alliance that had the most to gain from Ganon's disappearance would be an interesting pair. A dangerous pair, one that would not last.
As long as she could predict when Sephiroth's betrayal would come, it didn't matter.
She waited for him in the smoky bar, almost unblinking.

Even not on Gaia, even without Jenova, he was still failing her. That hurt more than he would ever admit even to himself much less other people. Even more perhaps, than the clawed at remains of his self-control.
"I was never interested in the Tower. My -scope- is much wider-ranging." He informed simply. Though really, he'd have to start somewhere. Ganondorf would have provided that first step up that he needed. Without that now, he'd have to find another way.
"If suffering will prove to be the key, you have my promise that I will not hesitate in that."
But at this point, in truth for a long time, Sephiroth had been without very much of a plan. Until recently it had been obvious that he lacked the means to do anything about his predicament, but perhaps now he could expand on the real power that he had unlocked. His power, those that Mother's eradication from all planes of existence had not managed to purge from his core.
