Um. Aur, of Dreigiau/Shimmer/Darkstar/Wayrift fame (though for the last two he’s called Chase), as a SOLDIER from Final Fantasy VII. I know Aywren doesn’t particularly care for FFVII, as she’s one of those who thinks the last great FF game was VI. But my brother loves FFVII: Crisis Core, and wanted to play a game based on it.

And while we were playing I drew a picture.

He never made it. Shot down by hidden guns in the middle of nowhere, his grunt soldiers all killed in the crash, he approached a small cottage only to find it was a hidden stronghold of the enemy. He is about to venture down to the lower levels of this secret military research facility…

Aur: Understood. *hangs up*
Aur’s Phone: *ring ring*
Aur’s Overseer: Don’t ever hang up on me before I’m done again. And talk to Dennis for further instructions.
Aur: … |: (
