[[ omg i forgot to log back in here for like a week;; ]]

[strikes-twice-blog]

[ VIOLENT SCREECHING NOISES. checked my amazon tracking and it says Raiden was checked in at the location in town... MAYBE THEY'LL DELIVER HIM BY THE TIME I GET HOME ]

[strikes-twice-blog]

[ excuse the mess, still converting this blog like i've been meaning to for months now. will try to have it up 100% by tomorrow evening though. bed time for now. ]

[strikes-twice-blog]

[[ so. i'm most likely going to be recycling this blog into a metal gear character blog since, let's be honest, it's probably been at least three months since i logged in here, if not longer. i remember posting to a roleplay back in like... september? yeah, so obviously i can't commit to this character enough to really bother keeping the blog. maybe i'll try again in the future when i feel more up to the challenge.

i may just leave the account for later and make an entirely new one, but just don't expect much activity here;; ]]

Upgrades [Xu and Squall]

[xu-seed-deactivated20130529]

Impressive, she echoed his only reaction to herself as she remained standing, her fingers laced in front of her while maintaining her haughty countenance.

It was a compliment but she wasn’t expecting that Squall would only say a word. She was excessively excited towards the end of the presentation to hear a constructive train of ideas from the Commander. His inputs are the most important in matters like this one especially when it does involve Garden’s and/or Ragnarok’s upgrades. Getting feedback from the Headmaster would be the last step as they would require a complete budget proposal for the said new technology, leaving the Headmaster’s inputs be on-hold until the team has come up with the final proposal.

Maybe you’re just expecting too much from the ever stoic lion for a drafted presentation, Xu. And besides, he has shown interest, didn’t he?

Of course he must show interest. And too much?

This is about Garden’s safety — their home’s safety. Had he not wanted to check it out himself? Is her own efforts are just enough? Are his detailed inputs don’t matter anymore? He’s the Commander for Hyne’s sake! This is his job? To just say “impressive”?

Maybe he trusts you that much because you were designed to be perfect; your judgement on things must be higher than excellent that a second look on your research is not necessary anymore.

True. Maybe he does trust her that much… to the point that he won’t scrutinize it himself anymore. Considering that the technology is new, they should consider conducting a series of tests, cost-efficient funding, and another set of research shall still be made.

She bit the inside of her cheek and immediately began stacking up sets of papers for her other proposals, affixing them inside a binder. Xu walked up to the side where the Commander was relaxingly seated, the thick binder in her hands — “I suggest you read these, Commander,” she firmly said as she placed the collection of data on the desk.

Thud!

“Now if you please excuse me, I shall now take my leave,” she gave him a quick bow, turning around in her heels and headed straight at the door.

If Squall noticed the woman's distress, he was careful not to show it. He had such a migraine, and all of the flashing of the projection hadn't helped it any. But still, he was glad he came down here with her to see it for himself. Xu's explanation hadn't done the simulation justice; if they could get this up and running efficiently then the possibilities were staggering. All they needed was for it to work properly and they would be set.

Icy blue eyes snapped back to attention at the dull thud of the binder connecting with the desk. Squall's brows furrowed slightly as his gaze flickered up to meet Xu's face, only to find her practically leaving a trail of ice in her wake as she moved to leave the room. And people called him moody. 

"Xu, wait--" he called out, sighing as he reached up to massage the bridge of his nose. These headaches were getting worse, and needless stress like this never helped him any. "Have you sent any of this down to the research board to find out about the costs?" the Commander questioned, looking at her with tired eyes. It was a well known fact that Balamb Garden had been doing quite a bit of business lately, since everyone wanted to hire teams from the Garden that had supplied the heroes of the Sorceress War, but Squall had been careful not to allow the facility to blow through the gil they were raking in, despite Selphie's constant requests for more parties and events. Now it seemed like his efforts might be paying off, for this was sure to be expensive and complicated.

The brunette sighed loudly again and stood up, file from Xu in hand as he followed her to the door. "If not then do so and report back to me when you have the information. I'll review this in my office until then..." And perhaps take a small nap for a few minutes as well. It wasn't often that the Commander felt obligated to apologize, but since he wasn't exactly sure of what he did wrong, that was the best he could do, that and informing Xu of how impressed he actually was.

"Everything else looks in order to me. You've done a fine job," he continued, giving the woman a rare compliment for her extensive efforts. Xu would definitely be profiting from this in more ways that one if everything went well, Squall would make sure of it.

“Those are for Chocobos like you.”

[falsamilitis-blog]

“Another point for creativity. Aren’t you imaginative.”

[strikes-twice-blog]

“I couldn’t hear you over all the ‘warking’.”

[falsamilitis-blog]

“That’s just the sound of how awesome I am.”

[strikes-twice-blog]

“I think you’ve taken one too many hits to the head… Or maybe all that hair product has finally seeped through.” 

[falsamilitis-blog]

“What hair product? This is all natural.”

[strikes-twice-blog]

"That's nothing to be proud of."

[strikes-twice-blog]

The brunette sighed loudly and pinched the bridge of his nose. How did he get stuck with this idiot? “That’s nice,” he replied flatly, staring at Laguna with irritation clear in his eyes.

[esthardesperado-deactivated2014]

At a loss, Laguna scratched the back of his neck nervously. “Uh.” Hyne damn it, his own kid made him feel like more of a moron than his drill sergeant ever had. Still blushing an embarrassed red, Laguna stood his ground. “S-so, how’re the others doing?” He at least tried to sound cheerful and interested, unlike his prickly spawn.

[strikes-twice-blog]

Squall stared at Laguna, his expression just as icy as before, and gave him a small shrug. "They're fine." It was the truth, no more, no less. Honestly, he had no clue what to say to this man, he was so.... strange.

[strikes-twice-blog]

(( ooc; ugh, gotta go to bed... more sassiness tomorrow :/ ))

"I think you've taken one too many hits to the head... Or maybe all that hair product has finally seeped through." 

[strikes-twice-blog]

Squall stared at the man as if he’d grown a second head. He honestly only caught a few words of that, the rest merely came out as a muddled blur as he lost interest. “….Whatever.” It seemed like a suitable response either way.

[esthardesperado-deactivated2014]

Fumbling his thumbs together awkwardly, Laguna flushed. His shoulders hunched defensively, and he bit his tongue. Rambling again… probably thinks I’m an idiot. Clearing his throat, he tried not to make more of a fool out of himself - he could already feel his leg trying to tighten up. “Uh. So.. things’ve been pretty good in Esthar.”

[strikes-twice-blog]

The brunette sighed loudly and pinched the bridge of his nose. How did he get stuck with this idiot? "That's nice," he replied flatly, staring at Laguna with irritation clear in his eyes.

[strikes-twice-blog]

“I wouldn’t take pride in that… I think I have some gysahl greens if you want them.”

[falsamilitis-blog]

“Only if I can feed them to you.”
