Either way, owing a favor or wanting to put me through a swamp, it'll be worthwhile.
[He .. can't take the people here with him, not that there'd be many he'd be inclined to even try it with. What could he take? Power, apparently. And skill.
The latter would come in time. The former..]
... Mm. At the least there's no need to walk there. I've been losing a lot of coverts though, if I start losing flight feathers it might be a walk regardless.
[ It will be worthwhile... maybe. If it's not layered deceit. Gifts too good to be true and all that... and perhaps especially so in Folkmore regardless of how one can presume upon the fair weather nature of the Trials since he's been here. ]
I hope so. Do you know if Maul went through this process here as well? Might give you an idea of what to expect.
[ Or was he from the same place as the 'elf'. To say Vincent has misgivings, particularly misgivings in going so far as to agree to go as far as to meet up in the first place, would be an understatement. Still he can be momentarily distracted by talk of losing feathers.
While he doesn't spend a lot of time in a fully feathered form, he does have some and Sephiroth has probably seen the tail under the cloak a time or two by now. ]
Hrmph. Wonder if that's a good or bad thing.
[ Bad? One too many fights and damaged wings. Who knows how much it might take to permanently stunt the ability to grow the feathers back? Also bad, if it's a sign of emotional stress. Good? It could be growth a natural process. ]
Well, you can either get us to the swamp's edge or rest the whole way. Ever ridden a chocobo?
[ Besides, once they do get to the swamp it's probably going to be harder to see much through any canopy. Ground travel might be better then. And black chocobos certainly don't worry too much about watery areas anymore than mountains.]
I don't know, but I'm intending to speak to him further about a great many things, he's also been referenced as one of the few people to actually be benefitting fro Thirteen's plans for us here, and I want to know what he's doing that we're not.
[But there's no rush on that front, there are more important things to be addressing first. It left the Sith an interesting enigma.
One pale hand rises to wobble back and forth. Good or bad, same difference.]
According to some searching, the bird my wing shape most closely resembles molts this time of year. I'm assuming it's just part of how it goes. I've had lessons with light cavalry, not all terrain we're expected to have missions in are passable by truck or helicopter. Are you volunteering or did Thirteen import some?
[He's never presumed to actually ask a Familiar to act like the animal they resemble, but he knew what Vincent's primary alternate form was.]
[ Vincent's going to need to check in with Maul sometime. He's been meaning to but... well, it's not like he monitors every single aspect of Sephiroth's life every single moment of his own. ]
...Good idea.
[ About speaking to someone who has had positive outcome from this whole social ordeal that is Folkmore. ]
Let me know how that goes.
[ ...Interesting. About the wings anyway. And yes it's only polite not to presume on a Familiar to act as a pack animal or convenient transport. Not that Vincent would have made the suggestion if he wasn't offering and to that end he nods. ]
Not sure if there's any chocobos around. [ Actual chocobos. Certainly not Vincent. ] But given Exile's monsters, probably better to avoid extra mounts. [ It'd be like ringing the dinner bell. ] Besides, black chocobos have their advantages.
[ Like being able to ignore a lot of natural dangers of a swamp by walking over them. ]
If you're up to flying part of the way, I can change into something small. So long as you don't mind a passenger.

[ Vincent settles against a wall, waiting for Sephiroth to finish packing. ]
At least getting around won't be a problem.
