@gippal-a
me low-key thinking about gippal’s ff7 verse... having him be young in old corel and currently living in the tent city of north corel... he digs up scraps, junk and materials to sell to midgar and other places ??? i don’t know i’m just thinking.
ruburan:
“Yeah?” She queries while picking at some peeled varnish on her nail, but she stops to give him proper regard, his thoughts are more important than a little loss of pink. “Then maybe yer not keeping yourself occupied enough if its weighing on ya mind .”
green spiral eye skims over her frame, observing her absent behavior moments before she grants him her attention. he averts his gaze to the ground, depicting patterns until they formed shapes in his head. negative thoughts rose without invitation that he willed away. her voice leads him back into reality—a momentary pause as he processes her words. he emits a short dry laugh that didn’t match his usual humor,
❝ haha... yeah... i thought so too. ❞ he sighed leaning forward onto his own lap, ❝ i’ve received on a lot of recent jobs so, i’ve got enough to do. nothing to worry about there. ❞ he straightens his posture leaning back into the cushion, allowing it to support him, ❝ i guess a part of me really wants closure for all that shit... and then there’s the part of me that just wants a fucking explanation—i don’t think i’m asking for too much. ❞

[ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] i’m not as pure as you think! 😈 [ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] well, he’s not that bad to date i think. otherwise, he said he would not get rikku a new laptop [ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] i mean. i wouldn’t know but he’s a sweet guy in the end, c’mon now!!
she will admit though, she is stupidly amused by the whole situation. and yes, rikku is part of the masterplan, but it should be known that she was the genius behind it all.
[ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] i think rikku didn’t even need a laptop — maybe she just wanted to prove a point but you know what? we discovered someone genuinely likes you. that’s sweet. [ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] the more you know
❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ no... obviously not. ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ listen, I’m not dating brother ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ under no circumstances!
gippal sighed heavily, wanting to end the conversation altogether. there was just no way he was never going to go on a date with brother. never mind the fact that his ears would be bleeding from all the screaming—but he really doesn’t wanna lead the guy on more than yuna and rikku seemingly had.
❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ I’m just gonna tell him the truth ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ rikku might lose her computer ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ but that’s not really my problem ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ the way I see it ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ I’m not really benefitting for putting my life on the line
❝ always gets me… how two years can feel like a lifetime. ❞ / @ruburan ♡
@fulgensun has informed me of this... and I AM SO ANGRY ABOUT IT.
i love that gippal is the type to let everything go, but he makes friends with people ready to throw down at any given moment.
how gippal lost his eye
he was about 9-10 and was just standing up for himself and his friends when a group of older kids who followed yevon started to harass them for playing too close to a temple. instead of leaving like that they insisted, gippal stood up to them and was made an example of. the older kids started to hit him, and the other al-bhed were either to afraid to help or ran away in fear. one of the kids took a rock and smashed gippal in the face causing severe damage to his eye—they would have continued to beat him if a monk from the temple hadn’t scared them off. the kindness of this monk who followed yevon and devoted everyday to him—yet didn’t hate gippal or leave him to die. this made gippal believe that those who follow yevon aren’t all bad. which is why he never judges people until they show who they are.
I was looking at Final Fantasy X-2.5 ~Eien no Daishō~ and found some interesting facts about the Al-Bhed
Bedore was the old name for the Al Bhed race who were treated as the lowest class in society and worked in factories manufacturing weaponry and machines and were sometimes blamed for worsening the war. The name was changed to Al Bhed by Yevon with Briar speculating the name "Al Bhed" was easier to make fun of.
a tribe of workers called the Bedore invented appliances dubbed "machina" that achieved things that were previously only possible with magic, turning the tide and displeasing the authorities, who lost their leverage over the common folk. Instead of demonizing the Bedore and their machina, the government elected to find a way to take advantage of them.
The Bedore became increasingly audacious with their inventions, and the government became more and more tyrannical. Not only the Bevelle government, but most city-states, had their own Bedore workshops developing machina, giving rise to the machina cities. The Bedore didn't have the option of refusing to build further machina, or else they would be executed.
The Bedore, who were now known as the Al Bhed (a bastardization of Alb's Bedores), were blamed for the war and hunted down. For the next 1,000 years, the Al Bhed would live in separate communities, detested by the followers of Yevon. The effects of the war are still visible in modern Spira from the machina ruins in Besaid, the Mi'ihen Highroad, Bikanel Island, and the Calm Lands.
@braskide··:
why, gippal —— i thought you liked us, no? she’s taking aaaaaall the time in the world to reply now. no rush after all, right?
[ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] okay, well…
cue a longer pause.
[ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] rikku needed a new laptop and we agreed to scam brother as a payback and… [ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] you know… one thing lead to another and… guess he likes you! isn’t that the amazing news? [ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] and nu-uh. rikku is not letting go of that laptop! so… you know… [ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] you’re being very dramatic now. brother isn’t that bad now, is he…?
a scam for brother? brother had a real menace of a sister ❨ assuming rikku was the mastermind ❩ —of course gippal should have been aware of this.
❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ what does rikku need a new laptop for? ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ it was rikku’s idea wasn’t it? ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ i can’t believe she’s corrupting the summoner yuna… ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ ALSO… I AM NOT HAPPY ABOUT THIS NEWS. ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ never mind the fact that he can’t finish a sentence without screaming. ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ and if he’s not that bad then why didn’t you just ask him for a new laptop instead of scamming him?
@baralai··:
❛ i can’t say i disagree, its all quite surreal — gippal… how are you coping with it all — do you cope… or do you lock it away? ❜
gippal emits a chuckle and shrugs nonchalantly—and effort to hide the pain deep inside,
❝ i just deal with it all. we’re all different people. i get that now. i was naive to think anything else. ❞
@braskide·
uh —— oops? let’s say she knows her guy & is definitely not purposefully waiting to get back to him. she can definitely picture the other end of the line and it makes her live for it.
[ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] you can say i got some aces up my sleeve [ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] rikku isn’t the only one knowing how to have fun, you know? [ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] oh! [ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] talk about cid’s family— [ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] hope you like brother cause that’s who you’re meeting up with [ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : gip. 🤖 ] please dress formally. he is a respectable man.
❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ BROTHER?! ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ NO. NO WAY! ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ couldn’t you have just asked him to buy you a laptop?! ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ WAIT… ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ YOU USED MY PICTURES! ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ WHY DID YOU USE MY PICTURES WITH BROTHER.
this had to be a prank. rikku was probably giggling behind yuna as she saw gippal’s frantic texts to the summoner.
❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ HAHA. funny, brother? a respectable man? he doesn’t wear a shirt. ❨ ✉ → 𝐬𝐦𝐬 : miss celebrity ❩ oh and btw… brother is not hot. so you might have to return that laptop.

like for a broody dialogue starter.
why and how is it that gippal was able to play mediator between baralai and nooj? was he not mad? had he forgiven nooj? / @widlast
gippal is al-bhed, meaning he has been the object of hatred for his whole life without there being a reason behind it that made sense aside for someone blindly following their religion. he has asked the people who hate him why they hate him and his people, and none of them could provide a meaningful response that made him believe that the hatred was his alone to carry. the al-bhed carry their burdens together, and he’s always believed that. what happened in the past is where it stays. that event occurred, and gippal grew from his mistakes back then. he’s no longer as trusting as he used to be. he asks more questions. but he refuses to hold grudges and refuses to be held responsible for someone’s misguided hatred. when nooj shot gippal, he wasn’t mad. he was hurt. it hurt him more than anything. the crimson squad fell apart soon after, and he lost the closest people he had ever met that weren’t al-bhed, people that accepted him for who he was. he spent a long time just being sad about it all, and eventually, he moved on. he couldn’t spend time dwelling in the past. also, i sort of headcanon that he spoke to auron about some of it, and auron helped him by giving him some food for thought. during that time, he was mainly suspicious as to why they were all being brought together. i think he had forgiven nooj, but i also think that like baralai, he wanted an explanation, not nearly as bad as baralai wanted it—he would have settled for an apology.
