[ Here, have a serious young man with glowy eyes, spiky hair, and a love of all black wardrobe on the feed. It takes him a second before he starts talking in a rather quiet voice. ]

Is it possible to get weapons made here? I have some blue prints for the one I use to have on the Planet... Are there any inventors here?

[Sephiroth's visage is less than pleased, but it wasn't Cloud he was peeved with.]

Should you find one, kindly let me know.

[video]

[atouchofstrife]

[ He is still going to see Cloud frown a little, showing signs of unease at seeing Sephiroth pop up like that. ]

I will.

[video]

[intemperiae]

[A succinct nod.]

Much appreciated.

[video]

[atouchofstrife]

[ Should he say it? The sword was a piece of Sephiroth after all. ]

Yeah... Hopefully they can fix the Masamune too.

[video]

[intemperiae]

[A line of tension rippled down the General's jaw at the sword's mention but he was over his fit of pique--presumably.]

Indeed.

[video]

[atouchofstrife]

[ Cloud just tenses, looking like he was going to jump if something happens. ]

I'll tell you when I find someone.

[video]

[intemperiae]

[Relax, Cadet. He couldn't smack you through the terminal, in any case.]

Noted. If I'm not available, please relay the information through Zack Fair.

[doc_brown]

[ Have a weird-looking old man on the screen. He's obviously been attracted at the mention of "inventor". ]

Get weapons made you say? There is certainly everything needed to created pretty much anything in this tower! It is only a matter of finding the good material and to be patient.

[atouchofstrife]

[ Considering the world he comes from, dear old Doc Brown isn't that unusual. Cloud's friends with a talking lion/wolf creature with a flaming tail after all. ]

Yeah, weapons. My... Colleagues and I have some specific weapons that need fixing or making and none of us are that good.

[doc_brown]

What kind of weapons? If you have the blueprints making them shouldn't be of any difficulty, it'd just be a matter of time and patience depending on their complexity and size?

[ Nobody ever say about Nanaki to Doc. Either way, he's interested in those blueprints. ]

[atouchofstrife]

We're all swordsmen, but each of us has specific types. One of us uses a nodachi styled sword about six feet long. He found it in four pieces so all you'll need to do is repair it. Mine is a kind of broadsword... Well, you'll have to see the blueprints. It's six swords that can be combined into one. I think my friend has gotten a sword made for him but we can always use extras. He uses a broadsword too, a simplified weapon compared to mine.

[ Oh, he won't say a single thing unless something happens. Also Cloud just chews on the inside of his mouth for a moment. ] So. What is the price to get it done?

[doc_brown]

Swords you say? Well that shouldn't be too complicated as long as you show me the blueprints.

[ Though the six-swords thing does sound a bit complicated. As for the price, he shakes his head. ]

Price? No, I don't care about prices. You'll have to ask Marty, my assistant, about that. But I for one ask nothing. Money has no value in this tower and I'm only working out of passion! If anything, I may ask you to bring me the necessary materials to make your swords if ever they are in floors I cannot access on my own.

[atouchofstrife]

We'll have to meet up then. I can show you what I have and we can go from there.

[ That sounds really just strange. Cloud is just going to blink and the head tilt. ]

Between the three of us, we can handle most anything... I guess I should ask him anyways just to be safe.

[doc_brown]

[ H'd have asked for money, but that's not like if he could it after. ]

When you'll have time, pass by the workshop on the fifteenth floor with whatever it is you need! I am there most of the time, you'll find me easily.

[ The mess with a quickly assembled super-computer, weird inventions and a dig walking around. ]

[voice]

[beknightedheroine]

I've seen people do it. If you're gonna look for someone, miiiiight wanna hang out in the workshop.

[voice]

[atouchofstrife]

That would be the one on the fifteenth floor?

[voice] most important backtag right here

[beknightedheroine]

That'd be it~!

[voice] absolutely!

[atouchofstrife]

Thanks. We'll head up there next.

[video]

[pauldrons]

You check Floor 15? There's a pretty big workshop up there, so someone should know how to use it to make swords. [pause.] Question is, where are we gonna get enough steel to make 'em if we can find someone who knows how? It can't be that easy to find around here.

[video]

[atouchofstrife]

Just been told about it, Zack. A man by the name Doc Brown said he can help and that supplies can be found on some of the more dangerous floors. We'll have to fetch the stuff if we want them made.

[video]

[pauldrons]

[Fetch, huh? Is this place trying to make dog jokes or something?] Just like that? Huh...guess it's a good thing most everything in this place hates fire spells. Don't have much else I can use right now.

[video]

[atouchofstrife]

..I've got two pieces of my sword. [ Oh yeah, dog jokes all the way, Zack. Cloud hesitates a moment before adding: ] You can use one of them if you want.

[video]

[pauldrons]

[Zack hesitates for a second at that; yes he feels damn weird without the Buster. No, he doesn't need a sword just yet. But still...] You wouldn't mind? Materia's working for now, so I think I'm good, but...wouldn't be the first time I ran into something that ate fire spells for breakfast.

[video]

[atouchofstrife]

I'll be fine. My fighting style is pretty flexible so I don't always need two swords.

[ Just wait until Zack sees Cloud fight. The kid is just a regular berserker. ]

Just remember where you got it from.

[video]

[pauldrons]

[Don't always need two swords, huh? Cloud, sometimes he wonders about you....

But, he'll be surprised. And proud. So proud of his little chocobo spreading his wings like that.]

Hey, no worries there. You'll get it back, I promise.
