The Lunatic Pandora

[timenpcs.livejournal.com]

Characters: Lufene, everyone who wants to go after her
Progress: Ongoing
Summary: The intrepid heroes of Gaia seize their chance to board the Lunatic Pandora and attempt to stop its progress.
Location: Lunatic Pandora (over Fum)
Date: 19th April, 1805
Warnings: Violence

Since it began its journey two days ago, the Lunatic Pandora had made its way slowly but surely across the Outer Continent, nearing its final destination with every passing second.

The sky around it was soon dotted with airships, come to track its progress. But none could yet halt it. To even make such an attempt, a party would need to get inside - and in the heart of the Pandora, Lufene was waiting.

"Bad," was Quistis' only reply at first, and a frown pulled at her lips as she looked up at the giant structure. It was still moving, slowly but steadily. "Lufene is heading for Burmecia. This continent won't be touched by the Lunar Cry if that's the case, but for anyone on the Mist Continent..." She paused and shook her head.

"Anyone unable to stand and fight should prepare to evacuate. Captain fon Ronsenburg's brother is working on tactics as we speak, at least concerning strategic placement of our fighting forces. I have faith that those inside will be able to stop it, but if they're not... we'll be ready."

Ellone's worry was clear on her face, even as she tried to hide it, leaning against Raine for a moment. She's worried about everyone up there fighting, worried about what the moving Pandora will mean. She knows what it's like in there. And so she has to ask, though there's been no sign of him since he left.

"Quisty... Seifer's not in there, is he?"

The former instructor shook her head, though she hadn't given the matter thought until now. She had been wondering plenty about the possible presence of Adel, not knowing when Lunatic Pandora came from, but had not considered Seifer. ... perhaps she should have. If Seifer was present on Gaia, however, wouldn't he have let them know? Not out of consideration, exactly, but because he liked to have his presence known, he had wanted so badly for his former comrades to know just how far he had come without them. That much couldn't have changed.

"I don't know," she said honestly, an answer she had been forced to give far more than she cared to since Lunatic Pandora had started moving. "I think we would have heard from him if he were. But just like Adel, I suppose it's a possibility."

Raine stiffened at the mention of Seifer, a firm and disapproving frown on her face. She still hadn't quite gotten past all that he and Rinoa had done to her family the previous summer- and to be honest, she wasn't sure she ever would.

Ellone's hold on Raine tightened comfortingly. She'd had to ask, just in case. She hadn't thought Seifer would stay quiet like Ultimecia had, but it was better to just be sure.

"I thought so, too. But if he is-" She sneaked a glance at Raine. "-they can take care of him. It'll all be okay."
