Final Fantasy 9 - Reimagined [Private and Full.]

Just typed up a rather humorous scene.

Final Fantasy 9 - Reimagined [Private and Full.]

Cassius groaned at the two bickering... It was enough to drive anyone on edge... He mentally reached for his Blunderbuss and shot Hitori in the teeth, though he knew even if he was being offensive or not, Hitori would survive and laugh it off... Just good grief... "Can both of you stop acting up? If you get caught they'll do worse to you than giving a lecture." Cassius expressed annoyance at the impertinence of Hitori... He calls one a child, then displays he still is one with the shill responses. "Good grief..."

"I'll say, it is like listening to a bloody married couple." Baku groaned as the others were starting to get ready for take off, yet he seemed tense, excited... Yet his eyes had a glint of fear. "Ritsu... I'm not your boss... Your... Partner is..." It was clear Baku wasn't quite used to the idea of someone so young being married... At least Cassius seemed young... But he shook his head and asked the question first hand. "Cassius... Was it? How old are ya lad?"

Cassius tilted his hat and looked from the mask. "Twenty years of age."
"How are you married at such a young age lad!?" Baku blinked under his glasses. "I can't even get married..."
Cassius felt his hands clasping the plating over his face.

"Anyways my boy! I need a tiny favor of you!" Baku stamped his feet down.

"I suppose it is fair... I was provided transportation." Cassius spoke, arms crossed, wanting to hear him out.
"Aye! That I have! Just like how you helped with the Princess!" Baku flexed somewhat, getting worked up and sweaty.

Cassius blinked, not that it was easily seen. "Okay?"
"I need you and Karn, as well as... Wylde Ostera to put on a show!"

Cassius wasn't quite sure how to respond... He sorta just took his time to look to him and to Karn. "Just... Any scene in mind... At all?"
"Nooo! I need you lot to improvise. Give the Audience an Ending!" Baku pointed to him.

"Karn, is your boss always this needy?" Cassius turned to look to her. He seemed rather just wanting the day to end. "Besides, Can't they do the ending with Blank? So why me?" Cassius turned back to Baku.

"Because I said so lad! Because I said so." Baku grinned.

"I'm going to punch you..." Cassius sighed.
"You sure you want to do that?" Baku blinked.

"Are you questioning my impulse? Or my sensibility?" Cassius retorted to see Baku raise his index finger, before lowering it in defeat. "Grr..." He grumbled. "Fine, make it quick... Shit faced drunk anyways."

"That explains a lot." Cassius broke into genuine laughter for a moment. "Welll... Since I have permission..." Cassius gave a rather light tap to the arm.

Baku chuckled. "The fuck was that? I thought you were a man, even my lass Karn can hit harder than that!"

"You never said it had to be a hard hit, besides, she wears heavy gauntlets for that and apply the principles of motion to do the work, which is smart and effective." Cassius retorted to get a snort out of Baku.

"Hit me like a man! Like this!" Baku cocked his left arm out, slamming it at Cassius, only to meet Cassius' silver targe. "FFFFF- FUUUCCCK!" Baku felt his hand crunch in agony. "My turn?" Cassius slammed both fist into the side of his face, sending him to the floor. Baku slid across the floor for a few moments before Anubis sent a wrap around his fist, pulling him back to his feet.

Anubis giggled in delight. "Do it again!"
"No." Cassius said sharply.

Garnet somewhat chuckled at the scene, it was the morbid humor that seemed to interest her. She placed a hand onto Baku, healing his fractured hand and skull. "If I may. It is all the more reason not to challenge those you hire on."

"Aye..." Baku wobbled and waddled to a rather broken down cotton made cushioned chair. It was beat up, but it did the job... Until Baku shattered it upon stammering to sit on it.

Cassius face palmed with both hands, then the overly fed Crocodile waddles up to Baku.
"The fuck you looking at Chauncy... You fat shit..." Baku at this point felt himself out, there was silence, than snoring.

Yet... Chauncy seemed to look offended. Could Crocodile's even glare...?

Cassius than looked to Karn and Blank. "Right... Care to walk me through this? Sing? Dance? Or do we just do what I just basically did?"

Another update. Since there have been no battles yet. (Unless you count Cas using an item to end a creature.) I'm fine if you change gear now. But anything after the departure will be exempt from being changed.

However, it probably will not change your character too much. I just want it so I don't go "Well, if I leave him as is, he will feel kinda samey too everyone else. And composition is a thing." So there is that.

Also, I sent Silver a note, I kinda want to do a Duet scene (As in me and Silver make the next scene to conclude the play segment to give it more of an ending.)

If Silver does not wish to, then I guess I'll have something else. But all and all, I hope you're all enjoying the Rp.

Edit: Added Gadgets under Cas's weapons. Feel free to add such to characters of yours.

"Hitori, that is my husband." Cassius spoke bluntly before he began to reach into the satchel. He proceeded to head behind the curtains.
Anubis manifested and waved his right hand in a tsking manner. "No peaking." Anubis chuckled, blocking Cassius' frame as he undressed. When he came out of the Curtains he was wearing a new set of clothing. The armor he wore was changed into something that was still sturdy, but hid his frame efficiently. Most would not know it was Cassius. That was unless you were in the room with him. The mask hid all facial features with it's silver plating, he also had very fancy clothing to go with it, most of which is laced. His leather gloves were covered in some form of iron that went with his knuckles, a leather coat as well, with a flashy cape. Slightly heeled leather boots with iron on them. And to top of that, he had a cane as well.

"I think we are ready for our last scene, wouldn't you say Karn?" Cassius said as he appeared before sticking to the shadows. "I can lean the way, I seen the general path, and most seem to... have drifted asleep. Though be weary. Though..." He looked to the ready Princess Garnet to see a not. Anubis taking the suit case as he wore a dark, phantom like coat. "No fatalities. None. This is a clean job, if you fight, be swift and knock them out." Cassius spoke before walking out of the room, he went as far as to have twirled his cane, his buccaneer like hat hid his ears.

The path he took lead to the back of the air ship, Monica was waiting for them.

"Were you spotted?" Monica asked out of concern.
"No, but I don't think we should stay long. If you catch my drift." Cassius said in a cool manner.

"Right, I'll try get things ready, flap the propellers twice to speed the act up... As Baku said..." Monica took a breath before scrambling to the control bridge in which she'd operate the ship's propellers. In which, started to spin for the actors to see.

The Queen however was feeling uneasy... and for good reason.

Final Fantasy 9 - Reimagined [Private and Full.]

Not my biggest post, but we are moving forward, ultimately the full party should be united within the next post.

I apologize to those who feel benched.

Final Fantasy 9 - Reimagined [Private and Full.]

Garnet found herself leaving the balcony of her mother. She just hoped her messages got through... Though she saw the well groomed man. She merely gave him a brief glance before walking off.

"Did you pay the dear Hunter Beatrix? He did take care of... a certain pest, yes?" Brahne was fanning herself. She wanted all of the best of news. Beatrix took a seat beside her.

"Why of course. The being is... a Homunculus he said. I told him you may wish to see him. Though he wishes to take his time." Beatrix finished.

"Garnet, on your back, can you fetch the Hunter? I wish to have a word with him." Brahne called to her daughter, smiling in sincerity as she was on her rose tinted furniture.

Garnet simply spoke softly to her Mother. "As you wish Mother."

"Such a sweet and soft girl." A Man chuckled, standing closer to Brahne.

"We are trying to enjoy a show. What is it you want Kuja...?" Brahne sighed.

"My my, just to extend my hand to collect my due of course. Or did all of your economy just become extended to the Hunter?" The man grinned, almost in a sneering fashion.

Cassius looked to the two. "Nice disguises. Except for the eyes." Cassius commented as he stretched slightly.
He then attempted to address Hitori, but gave a mere nod. There was not much for him to say, Minimal communication may be efficient if anyone else where to hear them. Itzal's lack of visions did not bother him in the slightest, he simply shook his head.

"Visions do not interest me that much, but I think it would be beneficial to get the cargo before Beatrix comes back. Besides, the others are waiting. And I can only delay what is going on here so long. Now move to her room with me." Cassius spoke before strutting forward, he took Hitori by the wrist and moved him slightly in front of him with a gentle nudge. "Sorry if this seems... Forceful. But if I am escorted it will be... less suspicious. We can say she asked for me- The Princess." Cassius huffed.

Before he knew it, he saw the Princess blink at him. "You're not supposed to be here... By normal means I should say. I take it my uncle sent you?" Garnet had a slight smile.

"Get your things, and let's go. We don't have a not of time before the search the premise. Guards just all don't fall asleep. That and your mother is expecting me. Which is all the more reason we must go." Cassius exclaimed calmly.

"Understood." Garnet nodded before entering her room with him.

"Thieves!?" Garnet blinked, her right hand was cocked as if she was going to slam her fist forward into the small, yet dangerous Karn.

"Hold your hand. That is one of the of your Transporters. She is with me." Cassius explained. Though... She wasn't quite with him so to speak, it was more like he was with her crew. Though he was just helping them on their job.

Garnet took a breath and reached for a white cloak to wear over her jumpsuit. She also grabbed a spare staff, with a sword for a side arm. It would seem gifts would come in handy.

Cassius waved Hitori and Itzal together. "If our escort would?" Cassius was hoping they knew a way out.

Final Fantasy 9 - Reimagined [Private and Full.]

I'll post later tonight.

Final Fantasy 9 - Reimagined [Private and Full.]

Pretty much after the next update from me, the party should be fully united again.

Final Fantasy 9 - Reimagined [Private and Full.]

How is everyone doing today?

Final Fantasy 9 - Reimagined [Private and Full.]

Cassius found himself passing Itzal and Hitori, he briefly looked to them before having Beatrix move with him down the marble halls, the reflections of them moving with every motion they made. "I take it I am to wait here while you retrieve my bounty?" Cassius found himself looking to the General who gave a nod, the guards dispersing while Cassius sat in an ivory like chair... It was clear he was meant to wait here... Though it was quite boring in the position he was meant to wait. Yet... Something did not feel right... As if something was breathing down his neck so to speak... There was a powerful presence he could feel near him...

Hitori and Itzal had a clear passage to Garnet, where they'd meet Karn... On there Front, the two Imp like beings cartwheeled down the hall with extreme agility and reflexes despite their decrepit faces. They seemed to emanate some unified danger... Just what were they doing...? Guards were making their rounds as they should, only they seemed quite slow, even if they had tight formations... while there were clumsy ones from the Knights of Pluto. Yet there was a form of Zeal of them, one that contrast that of the regular female guards.

Beatrix came back with quite a hefty sack. "Ten Thousand Gil... And this should held with the Singing Ministry's discovery... of a Homunculus as you say...?" Beatrix stood firmly, Cassius standing up, rolling his shoulders, cracking them as he held the sack.

"Homunculi might be a more universal term... A class of threat rather." Cassius sputtered out.
"I see Masked Knight." Beatrix spoke, saluting him. "You're invited to see the Queen... if you wish. You're free to decline. You've done your commissioned work... You're free to the kitchen. Library, and court yard... As well as the audience pit... But you're to stay on the ground floor." Beatrix was firm with what she spoke.

"Hmm... A drink would do me nicely, though if I am to see the Queen, tell her I wish to relax before indulging in the show. It isn't every day you get to lounge as a guest in a Palace." Cassius nodded. "One more thing, I'm not a Knight. You honor me with such a title however."

Beatrix chuckled. "You've been a great knight. For a Man." Beatrix saluted once again before dismissing herself.

Cassius found himself moving to the left wing, that of Which lead to a Kitchen... What he saw was quite interesting. He found a Window that was close... He did a service to another... When the Cooks were not looking, he pulled some form of sleeping agent from his waist belt, dropping it into the brewed beverage pool that the Knights would be partaking in shortly... For the Kitchen, it was poorly guarded... Hopefully this would aid those around him.

With that, Cassius moved to the Library, it would take some time before the Knights of Pluto would be served their Dinner... Unfortunately this meant that Tantalus still had a show to put on, but all in good time. He pulled a book from the nearest shelf, scholars watching him as they studied the archives... And then Cassius turned to a page abruptly...

"What is a man? But a miserable pile of secrets!" Cassius was recanting some form of a line... He rolled surprisingly well. The scholars were old, but they smirked at the art form.

"Very Good! Except you look like a Monster Slayer, not the one to play the monster." An older gentlemen spoke up, he had very short tame hair, a salt and pepper like color to it.

"I tend to appreciate art despite my line of work... Such as slaying the being that was in the dungeons." Cassius closed the rather hefty book. Placing it back where he belonged before looking at a rather oddly proportioned book... Something told him it would be unwise to touch it...

"Hmm... Guest of honor?" The man said before going back to his book.

"Yuup." Cassius bowed formally before exiting the library... Now there were sleepy guards falling over... perfect.

Now if only Karn found the Kitchen Window...
