Ah, they usually take a little time to make... [ hmmm. he shouldn't get ahead of himself here. he DOES have one on hand, but it's very large and also filled with a lot of very personal thoughts. best not use that one. ] I don't have any convenient ones on-hand, so give me... [ Kuja looks up at the sky, forgetting that he has, like. A phone. ] Hmm. Already past noon...
Tomorrow morning. I've a standing appointment I must keep, first, but after that... I can show you Terra, as I knew her.
[ This he has also heard of! They have arcades, another thing he's never been to, Ebenholz is already reevaluating his mental expectations to be even higher. Maybe there will be exciting battles, or puzzles? ]
Ah, but there is no rush. [He didn't want to watch a movie anyway. He's not disappointed. Nay. Not he! ]
I of course, have nothing but time until this island explodes. Please find me again at your leisure.
[ He'll be like, around. No one else on this island wears this much black, Ebenholz can't be hard to find. ]
[ kuja... also doesn't know what a video game is, but he can make some vague inference. he'd try one. ]
So I will~! Expect me.
[ aaaaaand he's off.
Fortunately for their brunch plans, the big exciting train drama happens after the next morning, so Kuja's got some precious free time to roll up with a crystal with a soft, golden glow in his grip. It's about the size of a soda bottle, though much wider around the middle. Kuja's entrance now is much the same as his last; why fix what isn't broken? ]
Hellooo~o. I've brought the record I mentioned. You recall, don't you?
[ Ebenholz is blessedly unaware of train drama anyway. He see's you all messing with it, and it just seems like so much trouble he keeps walking away.
Anyway, morning finds him practicing flute in an open part of the island. He absolutely freaking hates how Kuja just randomly appears, even if he does remember (and was excited for) these plans! It makes him mess up a note, and even now he's tapping it against his side in pure embarrassment. ]
Hello. [ He will not be adding extra o's at this time. ] Nay, I did not forget. You weren't lying on the turnaround on your magic. You created all this in one night?
[ It's huge. His crystals took a couple of days to set in at least, and they're barely a fraction of the size. ]
[ So Kuja gets to see our good friend Ebenholz is a musician with his own eyes~...
The sour note just puts a smile on his face, though it WAS rather painfully shrill. Though he pretends at being so polite... Kuja can't help but relish giving someone a little start, now and then. Keeps them both sharp. ]
I was motivated. If we can prove that there's a connection, even if it's with a notable point of divergence... so much of Terra has been shrouded in mystery for me! Of course I'm curious.
[ Also, Eben might be about to die horribly with the rest of the islanders, and that puts a little bit of a damper on the chance for future chats. ]
Now-- the test to see if you can absorb the crystal's light properly is simple... we need to get out of direct sunlight, to avoid interference, and then you need but bask in its glow.
[ Do NOT remember it, whatever you want him to do he refuses. His music isn't that good anyway! ]
Even proving our respective arts compatible would be worthy of a thousand papers. [ A noble prize even. ] Though I am not a scientist... I am very curious about your world. I haven't had much chance to travel.
[ He scoots forward to try and get a better look at the crystal, pulling up his own sleeve curiously to see if the orignium on his arm seemed to react. Right now, in the broad daylight? He wasn't sure. ]
Hm. Would the church work? Or was there another building you had in mind?

[ he doesn't know what a television is. ]
It's settled, then~!
