      "Is that really...?" She paused, it felt as if her heart was going to jump right out of her chest! If this was who she thought it was, how much more trouble would this world have to bear? There was already so many threats they had yet to deal with, and some who hadn't even shown to the world yet. Quickly reaching for her phone, she began to scroll through the database history, she KNEW she saw this man before in here, not to mention on posters within the ShinRa building.
Scrolling through, the young Turk came to a similar image, one of which read the name Genesis Rhapsodos. Tapping on the image, she began to zoom into it. "..Oh god...! It really is Genesis! " Because yelling that out was always a good idea to avoid being killed by apparent enemies. How did she get this job again? Turning her head to watch the man walk off further, she wasn't quite so sure she wanted to keep following him. If ShinRa got a hold of him, she didn't even want to know what might happen. Keeping this quiet for now may be the best chance for not starting a war, and staying alive. Slowly, she took a few steps from the corner of the wall she had been hiding at . Why was she doing this? Curiosity was a hell of a curse sometimes. So long as she could keep herself not so obvious that she was now starting to follow him, she may be able to make a positive identification.

Genesis hadn't walked away for long. He got the distinct impression that someone might be following him. Not turning around, he decided to continue walking, immediately looking for a good place to confront his potential stalker. He had been stalked before, considering that he had once had a fan club and then again after his desertion. At this point he was fairly certain that he should have gone with another outfit rather than just simple jeans and a shirt. However, he thought that since it had been years since he had last been seen by anyone not a certain old friend's wayward puppy that he would be fine. Obviously that wasn't the case, and the former SOLDIER heaved a sigh of his own before he turned down an alleyway. It was certainly wide enough to unveil his wing should he need it to escape, and unless they could shoot him, he highly doubted that he would be trapped for long should this be an attempt to apprehend him.
He went down the alley for a bit, his ears already listening for the tell-tale sounds of pursuit. At a certain point halfway, he however turned, his eyes scanning around as he looked for his follower. He crossed his arms and forwent leaning against anything, considering all the filth that he could smell from this place. He really missed his cave in Banora at this point. It didn't stink there. "If you're following me, you might as well come out now. Unless you don't mind the idea of me deciding to forcefully taking you out myself. I could always go for that route, after all."

Hmm. Well, this most certainly wasn't going very well. She had only been following him for several minutes, as quietly as she could manage. Tauriel had believed she was a decent Turk, when in truth, she was almost worse then Elena was during her first missions with Reno and Rude against Avalanche. Had she had real training, she might of noticed by now that she was walking herself into a sort of trap.
That didn't register to the ditsy Turk's mind until the moment he began to speak,thus starting a small panic attack.From her poor choice behind an empty metal trash can, the young woman attempted to get a glance of him, when she suddenly found herself losing balance and knocking into the can, stumbling forward while the can rolled away, leaving Tauriel there in one of the most pathetic, embarrassing moments of her entire career.
"....! " The bright side was...he wouldn't have to force her out! Yeah, real bright there. ".....I-I'm..! Um.." After what felt of an eternity of pure embarrassment, she slowly got to her feet. Emerald green eyes setting onto the mans own nervously. One couldn't tell if she was more frightened, or more embarrassed at this point. "I was following you...Because....Well..." God! Could this be anymore humiliating? "Your...Genesis...R-right? I've seen your pictures and files back in ShinRa Headquarters. They have many files on you..." She said, her nervousness beginning to die down some. "..You were brought back, weren't you? ...Just like the others? " He may not know exactly who she was speaking of. "I don't understand why, no one does. Sephiroth, Zack..So many that lost their lives have returned. My concern is....Who's side are you on? Will you follow that same destructive path of the past, or...Take this second chance to be something ...more? "

Genesis cocked an eyebrow at the girl, or well, woman. It wasn't exactly easy to tell how old she was, considering her appearance. However, he hid a chuckle at the sight of her near panic attack and instead settled for a look of indifference as he considered her. It wasn't that shocking that ShinRa still had files on him. He did start an uprising, after all, and that she could still recognize him was still not surprising, though he had hoped that years would have dulled memories. Which meant she was a Turk, or someone definitely high up enough for that sort of clearance. His status in ShinRa had been Killed In Action, after all. That much he had found out from the various bits of information he had garnered during his degradation. He huffed, slightly annoyed. This was a right mess, apparently.
The Banoran simply nodded as she asked about who he was, however frowned when she asked if he had been brought back. He hadn't died, as far as he knew. Not unless that sleep he had placed himself under counted. "I've never died. I was merely... recovered from an unfortunate condition that certain members of your science department had caused. However, you speak as though people have come back from the Lifestream. What do you mean by that?" Genesis was no fool. He wouldn't have made it to First Class had he been. However, her statement about who'd come back had him wondering. Of course Sephiroth would come back. The former General seemed to be impervious to the Lifestream's call, and considering that he knew the Goddess wouldn't do something without just cause, the others could be something to ponder over. However, the thought that it could mean that Angeal might be back had him curious as to where his friend could be.
He nearly snorted at the question about which side he was on. Leave it to a Turk to think that, he mused. That did not however mean he was going to simply repeat his mistakes. "That path was decided for me from birth, it seems. Or did you not realize that your company was the one that made me into a monster to begin with? It doesn't matter anyway. I'm on the side of probably the most important being on the planet, after all. When the war of the beasts brings about the world's end, The goddess descends from the sky, Wings of light and dark spread afar, She guides us to bliss, her gift everlasting."

"I...I see..Everyone at ShinRa believe you..well, died.." This was beginning to grow awkward. It did get her to wonder though, was ShinRa aware of this news too, using his death to cover the truth for some unknown reason? ...No, that couldn't be it. She would most certainly of heard something about it at some point." I don't know every detail, I've only read the little that stood out to me. The stories about your...actions against the world.." She didn't need to say any more, he most likely knew that bit of information! "...Do you mind if I asked you what they did to you? I understand if you don't wish to say, though...honestly. I'm unsure about ShinRa. At least, what it's become. I'm Tauriel...A currently very confused Turk working for people I don't completely trust.." Well, that was an interesting introduction. "You say they did something to you..I've heard many stories of cruel experiments going on.."
Pausing a moment, she nodded softly to his question. Her nerves had calmed greatly in these few moments of talking." Yes, It's strange...We don't understand why that is. I've mentioned Sephiroth and Zack. There were few others who lost their lives, but are now back. Rumors have spread that with the current threat to the world, Life Stream returned these people to protect the planet..To fight off to Beast.." It may of sounded silly, but that was the only thing that made half sense.
"I'm sorry..There's still so much I'm learning about the darker secrets of ShinRa. They seem to keep it quiet when it comes to the past, no one will give an answer. Which is why I had to dig a little deeper into the computers, that's how I found out about you.." As she took another moment's pause, before she could say anything further, he began to speak of something. Rather, it felt more like he was quoting something. Clearly, Tauriel had never read the book of Loveless! How he quoted those words so elegantly, it made her wonder. How could he be so bad as was described? "Is that..something you came up with?" She asked softly. "I can't help but think about how similar that sounded to the current situation going on with the beast everyone's been talking about..Will there be a goddess to save us from it's destruction in the end?" Not that he would know, the Turk was just thinking aloud.

XxXxXxx»Kesshin GaiaXxXxXxxXXXxxThe Ethereal Blade ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄ What do you do when you have no one left...? "Talking" & 'Thinking' Now that Kesshin knew his way from Balamb and Midgar and kind of knew his way around this odd world he found his himself back at the outskirts of Midgar, he wanted to see if things had finally cooled down over here, though he was not expecting it with the old claims that had gone around, he also again might have found himself petitioning ShinRa for work again. As Kesshin walked through the wrecked narrow alleyways he sighed like all this was a hassle, he would be perfectly fine with just laying about right now but obviously his own subconscious would not let him do that so he had no other choice but to keep busy and try to find work and fighting was basically all he knew being a merc and all, despite Kesshin's griping he enjoyed it from time to time. Going down the streets there was a stillness in the air, Kesshin didn't know if that was a good thing or a bad thing but it made him a bit cautious.
He heard some voices coming from the side of the road, which not anything special in the least, until he heard the mention of ShinRa. Kesshin figured any conversation involving them would bare some pretty spicy information, so he stopped to take a quick peak out to where the voices had been coming from. Kesshin saw a man conversing with a young looking woman dressed in a suit, "A Turk?" Kesshin questioned, Kesshin looked over to the other man who obviously wasn't normal, but could not distinguish his face, as he was looking at the back of his head. From what the woman was saying she indeed seem to be a Turk, a Turk with doubts about ShinRa, but that wasn't a real surprise there. The conversation went on and now Kesshin was understanding what might have been going on and how Rydia explained the whole situation with Sephiroth, but now it seemed a bit bigger than that, Zack Fair was here as well? Kesshin did not personally know him but he knew of him and had seen him around every now and then, though the his unit seemed to be weeded off from the main populace like most of ShinRa's play thing experiments, which beg to question, what experiment was that man? "The war of the beasts huh?" Kesshin muttered to himself, it what he was heard from the news and Rydia was beginning to become more and more clearer. This made him think more, "Does that mean there is a possibility that my friends may have been brought back to life?" asked himself, he shook his head, that was a one in a million chance and even if they were all together again, nothing could go back to the way it was. Kesshin felt kind of bad he was eavesdropping though. You keep going... Thats what she'd say... Thats what they'd do...XxXxX ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄

Genesis was hardly shocked when the girl mentioned that ShinRa believed him dead. That made him feel a bit more at ease, but only a bit. He would be a fool to completely trust a Turk. Assassins and sneaks, the lot of them, and he knew better than most how tenacious they could be. His own service had been more the military, but he recalled missions being issued from Lazard that had info gathered from the shady department. Her comment about his actions against the world caused him to smirk. Well well, apparently he had garnered quite the reputation. It wasn't nearly as widespread as the Demon of Wutai's was, but then again, from what he understood, Sephiroth had done more to nearly end the world than he had. His own actions in Nibelheim were minor compared to the wholesale slaughter that the general had caused.
As she asked about what was done to him, he nearly snorted. They were sending Turks out apparently that were ill-informed. He doubted that was the case back when he was at war with ShinRa, but even he knew that not every Turk was privy to all the information that the company had. Sighing, he pinched the bridge of his nose, closing his eyes briefly before opening them to look at the girl. "No, I'm pretty sure you can find out for yourself what was done to me. The company has to still have information on that sitting around somewhere. They did destroy an entire village to keep their secrets, after all. Let's just say that the SOLDIER program is less human than you might realize." Even after so many years, he still recalled the horror he had felt upon learning of his origins, and he mentally shook himself out of what would be very disturbing recollections. He'd been redeemed by the Goddess, and he was free of degradation. That was enough for him.
He noted her more relaxed stance and he couldn't help but wonder if he was still as terrifying to be around. He had been driven nearly mad when he was against ShinRa, and apparently that madness was rampant through the Firsts that he had been a part of. It stood to reason that any Firsts that had been in that particular group was going to be subject to the same treatment. Sephiroth had truly done a number if this was the reaction he got. His eyebrow cocked curiously as she mentioned something about a beast. He certainly had no clue about what she spoke of, and the redhead's curiosity was suddenly piqued. The Goddess he revered wouldn't give him answers. It wasn't that easy. Her concern was the well-being of the planet, and he wasn't an Ancient, and thus couldn't divine what her intentions were. He thought curiously about her words. "The Beast? Nothing more descriptive than that? Just a title? Interesting..."
It was certainly interesting to watch her talk about her doubts about the company she worked for. His expression was certainly curious Still, he couldn't help the thought that she was a Turk, and while he might be a bit more inclined to believe her, he still kept that fact firmly in mind. However, her question about what he just quoted made him blink at her incredulously. Was Tauriel serious? He hadn't come up with it at all. It was only the last verse he had created during his time on the run. Shaking himself out of his surprise, he frowned at her. "Loveless, Prologue. You've never heard of it? Color me surprised, I've never run into someone from Midgar that hadn't at least seen the play adaptation. As for your question about a goddess coming to save you, I can't help but wonder if all of these dead that were released from the Lifestream aren't the Goddess's attempt to try and save the world. She does work in her own way." It was this point that made him truly miss his friends, but also made him realize that his own actions had led him to this point. However, it didn't do to dwell on the past, as he couldn't change it.

Tauriel sighed softly. The more she heard, the less she wanted to return to that building. Maybe she should follow Cissnei's path and be done with ShinRa. Though, there was a chance she could do exactly what her fellow Turk tried to do. Act as a spy for Avalanche, while playing it as if she were still loyal to her job with the company she worked for. "I'm almost afraid to find out.. I've only been with the Turks for almost a year now, I think from all i'm learning now it's starting to make sense...Why they don't tell me -everything-. They don't want us newer Turks to know the darker secrets..."
"Mmhmm. No one seems to have very much information on this, we don't even know if it's truly a Beast as they call it. Where it comes from, how it was created...Nothing..I don't know rather to be thankful it hasn't shown or to be questioning if this is even true. Adachi, the president of ShinRa, told us Avalanche knew about it. Maybe one of them will have more information? " She paused, almost having forgotten he had been asleep for a long period of time, nothing was as it was as he may remember it."Do you know of Avalanche? Ah, where do I start..To make this less confusing, the group of this day has fought against ShinRa in the past. Their leader as far as I know is Cloud Strife. While others said they thought it was Zack Fair..With all this going on, and the President's attempts to turn the city and world against them, Somewhere along the line the team has separated and are now trying to escape the angry citizens. This new president...Has a way with words to get what he wants.." The sad truth, even she couldn't believe the reaction of the city to just two speeches of the corrupt president. "Avalanche only wants to do the right thing. They held back the information of this Beast to keep everyone calm, to not cause a panic that would likely of caused further troubles. "
Emerald green eyes blinked as she looked into the even more puzzled eyes of Genesis. The faintest hint of red creeping upon her cheeks, almost as if she were a little ashamed. "W-Well..! I never have been a big play attender.." Clearly, she was feeling a little silly at this point. It seemed like she may of been the only one in the entire city to never have heard of this book, nor watched the play. She had possibly passed the Loveless Avenue sign countless times and didn't even realize what it stood for, well, until now. As he went on to speak of the Goddess, she listened to his thoughts on the matter, which honestly seemed quit amazing, if it were true. "That sound's like a much better thought then the rumors! If it is true, I hope she sends more..If it is as bad as he said, we will need the strongest warriors to fight against this thing."
One may not believe Tauriel had such good senses sometimes, because, well, she just didn't most of the time! Today was one of those rare days they kicked in. Turning her head slightly to the side to get a better look of the alley's exit, she could swear she heard something. Was someone listening? Did Adachi send other Turks to spy on her? It could be anything. "..Hey! .....Is someone there?? "

"Talking" & 'Thinking' The information Kesshin was getting began to dissolve into info he already knew, though he was beginning to understand just who that man was, after all if what Tauriel claimed was true it was indeed possible, but why him of all people? Kesshin didn't exactly believe that man to be a hero, then again Kesshin didn't believe in Gods or Goddesses either otherwise this place wouldn't be such a hellhole and lives not made for people to suffer. Moments later the woman's voice called out from the street, it seemed his voice carried out of the alleyway, though Kesshin should have known better than to speak aloud while eavesdropping he had gotten sloppy and apathetic about any kind of recon over the years. Kesshin had two options, he could quietly leave, he realized this women may not be of much help to him with her doubts of ShinRa; or he could come out and try and see if he could politely sift more information out of them, mostly her. Kesshin sighed, "Even if the morrow is barren of promises, Nothing shall forestall my return, To become the dew that quenches the land, To spare the sands, the seas, the skies, I offer thee this silent sacrifice... I say the final act was a pretty good interpretation of what just happen to you, Genesis..." Kesshin said as he stepped out of the alleyway revealing himself, he knew Genesis knew nothing of him but he knew all about him, it was a privilege of being a former member of SOLDIER of the 13th unit Ragnarok, back when they meant something. Kesshin nodded at Tauriel, "You sense are very astute, but thats what one would expect from a Turk." Kesshin said. Kesshin had decided on the latter decision of revealing himself, any way to get his foot and the door, after all he wasn't immortal, he still needed to eat and sleep. You keep going... Thats what she'd say... Thats what they'd do...XxXxX ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄

Genesis was quiet, his expression not changing when she asked about whether he knew of Avalanche or not, and whether they had more information. It was possible, but hearing who headed the group, it made him frown. The puppy and the comatose trooper he had met during the latter days of his degradation. He of course remembered them both, what with Angeal taking Zack everywhere when he was still in training, and his belief that Cloud would be the one that could hold the key to his survival. It didn't matter anymore about that, considering that he was no longer in danger of dying and knew better than to rely on ShinRa or scientists for answers. "It's possible. I only knew of the eco-terrorists that were around during my own desertion. Beyond that, only rumors of what was going on during Meterorfall. It isn't much, that's for certain." He never would have considered joining any such group, especially considering his own state of mind at the time, but even that small bit of information was better than none. The idea that Zack was possibly leading the group made him curious as to how that came about. After all, while Zack had leadership qualities, it wasn't a sure thing that he could lead a group. He couldn't say the same of Cloud, as he hardly knew the kid.
He actually snickered at her response to his astonishment about her lack of knowledge about his favorite poem. She seemed amusing by her actions, and he just held up a han and waved it away. "Not everyone is as big of a fan as others, and certainly no one ever went into reading and interpreting the epic as I had. It's nothing big really, only funny. You wouldn't be the first I ever knew that couldn't recognise the poem as soon as I stated a verse. You're just the most recent."
Before he could respond to the girl's thoughts that his interpretation of what was going on was a better thought than what others might have come up with, she looked over to the side and called out to someone. His eyes flashed as he himself turned, and narrowed as he saw the man that was standing behind him. Now he was debating the wisdom of leaving his Rapier behind when he entered the city. It was certainly as recognizable as his own red coat had been, but it wouldn't have left him seemingly defenceless. He regarded the man, and could see the tell-tale trace of Mako in his eyes. Eyes travelling from Tauriel to the newcomer, he didn't relax his stance. "Loveless, the fifth and incomplete act. I didn't know someone had discovered my writings back in Banora. How would you have come across them?" To say that Genesis was disturbed by this was an understatement. It meant his refuge had been found and gone through, and he wasn't comfortable with that. He also expected a Turk to know what had happened to him, but not another SOLDIER. Other than Zack, he had run across no others toward the end.
════════════════════════

Tauriel nodded softly, deciding not to say anything further of ShinRa.She had learned quite a good bit of information from the short time she spent speaking with Genesis, for now, it was probably better left at that.He was awakened, only to receive so much unpleasant news.
"Ahh..I'm so embarrassed..I feel as though I could walk around the entire city asking people if they've read or know of Loveless, and every one of them says yes! " Her blushing face only grew when he began to snicker at her. What a change from those first moments of meeting, stalking him until she was caught and simply thought her end was near! She was sure of one thing, at least. He didn't seem to be who he was once, one could only pray he was stronger then Sephiroth at keeping himself in control.
Then, came the faint noises that had caught the Turks attention, causing her to call out to whom ever may be there. A few seconds later, there came another poetic verse, yeah. Everyone knew it, didn't they? She was really beginning to feel even more silly! It was obvious however, he was directing those words to Genesis, causing her to keep silent for now, letting Genesis get his answers from the mysterious green-haired man.

"Talking" & 'Thinking' Genesis seemed quite puzzled, and with good reason, after all not many people knew about the fabled fifth act of Loveless. Kesshin tapped tapped temple of his head with his right hand, "Come now, think about it. You should know that you were one of many "projects" ShinRa was working on and not the only project experimented in SOLDIER of all places." Kesshin said, he studied Genesis closely, Kesshin did not come to harm him or anything of the sort, in fact Kesshin was not confident he could beat him though he could careless, "Watch but do not yet engage. That was the mission given to my colleagues, the 13 Unit of Ragnarok, it was a mission involving you. Upon finding your location they were told to hold for further instruction, but what we didn't anticipate was Zack Fair finding you and defeating you. Despite what you know that event was recorded." Kesshin explained, he himself was not there at the time of the happening because he was out soloing another mission but that was a minor detail, "I doubt my friends saw it suitable to throw your fifth act of Loveless in the report but I could think of one who may have recorded it because... heh, she always was a hopeless romantic." Kesshin said think back on it. She was actually the only reason he knew of the play, after she dragged him to it a bunch of times sneaking away from their duties. This may have been hard to believe, and with the wavering convictions of his group at the time Kesshin didn't know if that report even made it to their superiors but either way Kesshin explained it how he remembered reading it.
After dealing with that Kesshin turned his attention to Tauriel, "Tauriel was it? Tell me more about this war and this beast, also do you know of any others who may have been brought back from the lifestream? Does Arngrim Fried or Braev Silversword ring any bells for you?" Kesshin asked, he made it a point to leave out the other's name, after learning that the lifestream was renewing life he wanted to keep hoping she was fortunate to be brought back and the best way for Kesshin was not knowing at all. Kesshin also wanted to ask how close she was with the president but even he could have guessed the answer to that, so he chose to leave it out. One other thing bothered him, "Why is it that you became a Turk?" Kesshin asked, if she knew of the Turks before hand she may have known that they had even dirtier work and knew many dirtier secrets than the SOLDIERs, if she was having doubts she should know one does not simply walk away from being a Turk so easily. You keep going... Thats what she'd say... Thats what they'd do...XxXxX ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄

Infinite in mystery is the gift of the Goddess
We seek it thus, and take to the sky
Ripples form on the water's surface
The wandering soul knows no rest. ════════════════════════
Genesis had no doubt that he wasn't the only one experimented on by ShinRa and its science department. He was just one of the first to realize the extent that ShinRa went to to get results. He repressed a shiver, recalling that Angeal and Sephiroth had died because of those experiments. What became of his longtime friends, he didn't know, only that apparently Sephiroth had returned. Hopefully mentally sound as opposed to the mad state that Genesis revealing the truth to the man had caused. He'd been desperate for anything resembling a cure, and could only think that the truth had crushed the proud SOLDIER. However, his eyebrow did raise as he heard the unit the other man had been assigned to. He certainly remembered the thirteenth unit, and remembered that they had been some of the best SOLDIER had to offer. That they had been assigned to watch him was a surprise. He'd been reputed dead, at least since Modeoheim, and Zack had seemed convinced of it. "Well then, it's nice to know they like lying to Firsts constantly. Though, given the company's track record, it shouldn't surprise me. My question is, why exactly are you here, and not with your compatriots? I doubt they were disbanded, as more than likely they were taking up the slack for lost personnel." He wasn't exactly going to believe that the whole thing had been recorded. By Hojo the madman, yes, as Weiss and Nero had picked him up after Zack had disappeared. He now wondered if he should have followed Zack after his defeat. It would have saved a lot of time with all of the investigating he was now doing.
He merely settled back as he listened to the man ask Tauriel about the beast, and then about why she joined the Turks. Genesis couldn't help but agree with the man. You didn't just join the Turks without realizing what the job entailed. At least the Turks he knew were like that. However, before they could really get into it, he cleared his throat. "While you may not be familiar with treasonous talk, perhaps it would be better for everyone involved if we moved this conversation to another location. Not to sound like an alarmist, but I doubt that the alley is really a good place to talk. I don't know about you two, but if my name and image are still in the Turk database, then likely they would try and bring me in. I don't wish for that to happen."
════════════════════════
OOC: Even if the morrow is barren of promises
Nothing shall forestall my return
To become the dew that quenches the land
To spare the sands, the seas, the skies
I offer thee this silent sacrifice

Taruiel turned to Kesshin as he questioned her, giving a faint nod to the young man."That's right..Um, though I'm sorry, I can't say much more then I have already told Genesis. Depending how long you've been listening to us, you very likely heard all I know.." As he questioned her further, the Turk shook her head softly. Those names were not familiar to her.."No, sorry..." Then came his last question. It wasn't exactly the first time she's been asked such a question, once one got to know her, many questioned by such a nice girl was a part of something so dark. "I have family in the slums I want to support. They don't --" Tauriel's attention was driven back to Genesis, who didn't seem to want to stay here any longer. Probably a good idea, considering. "Ah..Yes...Hmm.."
The smallest hint of a playful grin began to spread at the young Turk's lips. "You don't want to be recognized so easily, right? ...Well......What if..I was to go to the nearest clothing store and pick something out a little less....you?" That may be a terribly chaotic experience for Genesis, Lord knows what she would pick out! "Hee,hee...I can have you blended in with everyone in no time! " It would no doubt be close if not worse then Cloud's misery the day he had put on a dress to save Tifa.
"Or...we can go where ever it is you had planned...But I think finding you new clothes would be far more fun..! What do you think?" She asked Kesshin, at this point she seemed to be teasing Genesis..

XxXxXxx»Kesshin GaiaXxXxXxxXXXxxThe Ethereal Blade ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄ What do you do when you have no one left...? "Talking" & 'Thinking' It seemed that Genesis believed him to a certain degree which was actually quite nice, though Kesshin would most likely believe much of anything he was told about ShinRa nowadays, Genesis had a question of his own though, pertaining to Kesshin's allies, at first Kesshin thought it best not to answer giving a slight pause as he looked at Genesis, though as he thought about it, it may have looked suspicious if he stood silent and it did not really matter now did it? Kesshin did that stuff years ago though to him it still felt like yesterday, "Me? I'm just a weary mercenary now, living from job to job... I was going to see if I could find one that paid well in the city, or if ShinRa had anything they would be willing to throw at me, they aren't the best people in the world but the coin is good enough." Kesshin said, it was not like he had much to live for now anyway, he was only living to survive, he did not see the pleasure in being on this planet anymore but he made a promise so that was why he was still here, "As for your other question, I'm sure you can assess I am no longer with ShinRa, as for my colleagues... I killed them all. Though this was quite some time ago, back around the time when you were still a thorn in ShinRa's time. I had heard rumors that the 13th Unit of Ragnarok had be restarted but apparently had been wiped out by another group of SOLDIER even unknown to myself, some people called them the fabled 14th Unit, the Lost Force or... Restrictors, but that was just an old rumor, I cannot say for sure if it is true." Kesshin explained, though he was sure this confused Genesis so he thought he'd just give one more piece of information, "You weren't the only one who had been recovering from side effects of the SOLDIER experiments." Kesshin said, hinting at him being unintentional or intentionally being sealed away by his greatsword Ethereal.
Tauriel spoke and based on that it seemed she may not be of any help to him info wise, "I see, you for the information." Kesshin said, usually Kesshin would pick up this information from bars and taverns like a traditional mercenary would but this apparently was shocking news to most of the world and Kesshin was confident that not to many people knew about the subjects he was asking for. It was disappointing that she did not know any of the member in the the original 13th Unit of Ragnarok, Kesshin guessed those two weren't chosen by the Lifestream, he was sort of glad after a moment, if it were him he would not want to be brought back in this world after finding peace in the Lifestream. As she was about to answer the last question Genesis interrupted but Kesshin did get a gist of it, what seemed important was that she was not doing it for herself, which meant she either buried those doubts and feelings about the deeds she had committed or would commit in the future as a Turk, try to find another way to support them, or abandon the family she was trying to support, this was no fantasy game here, it was a cruel reality. Kesshin chose not say anything about it as of yet, if he said anything at all, he kept forgetting how stuff like that was none of his business.
It seemed Genesis was eager to relocate to another area because he may have thought they stuck out like a sore thumb, which was fine for Kesshin, but Tauriel had... another idea and man oh man was it an idea... shopping for clothes... or a disguise rather. When Tauriel asked what Kesshin thought, to be honest he was not opposed to the idea because he was not going to be the one wearing this disguise concocted in Tauriel's head but, "This sounds more dangerous than the experiments ShinRa runs on a daily basis... And I'd never wish that fate on anyone, not even my worst enemies." Kesshin said in reply to Tauriel, this was a battle Kesshin was not going to partake in, he would leave this decision up to the victim, Genesis. You keep going... Thats what she'd say... Thats what they'd do...XxXxX ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄
