Sortie 03 | [Video]

[With two accusations of murderers appearing, the public announcement of "Right vs Wrong" as far as those weird 'Remnant' people were concerned, all the Hands of Decay talk, some monster threatening fire and brimstone... Jesus, Pixy could make a drinking game out of this. When he appears on the feed, Pixy still looks bored, idling glancing through a book on military aircraft with an F-35 Lightning II prominently on the cover.]

Hasn't this place gotten exciting. I wonder what kind of bad news is gonna come up on the feed next? Maybe an organization bent on removing the city archways and removing the Guardians from power will come up to unite the place.

[Those words are just dripping with sarcasm. Honestly, he's not taking any of it seriously at all - especially given the fact that he was alluding to his former organization from home with that joke hypothetical scenario. Either way, what other people do is their business, and he's not about to get involved if he doesn't have to.]

Alright, so I've got a couple questions on my mind. I've seen that Nova City's got airports, but a distinct lack of aircraft. Is there even a way to get a jet here? Because hell, what's the point of even havin' air fields if there's nothing to land?

[He admits, he's missing the sky a little. He'd love to be in an F-15 again, especially without the idea of opening a subarchway. Hell, he wouldn't even know where to open one to. Valais Air Base was... not exactly a place he'd want to see again anytime soon.]


[Private to Troy]

Hey, I've got a question for you if you're not busy.

Indeed, and you have. [As had he, but Balthier is much the same.] A shame, really. I miss my ship. [He admits it with a slight note of sadness in his voice.]

[It was almost weird how pretty much every employee at Sunfire didn't really associate with each other. But really, that probably just made their jobs easier. Pixy scoffs.]

I can relate. It almost doesn't feel right, leaving my Eagle behind.

[He brought it upon himself regardless, but the feeling was still mildly present.]

Too bad subarchways are really the only way to remedy it.

[In Balthier's case, it was more that he simply detested the idea of having a job, but that it was a necessary evil, given his preferred profession was out of the question.]

...the idea of the Strahl in anyone else's hands...

[He lets the rest of that statement hang in the air.]

...alas, the only chance would be to bring an entire world into an archway.

[That's the tone of a man protective of his ship. Not that Pixy can blame him. He had to leave his F-15 behind in favor of taking the ADFX-02 into battle... yeah probably the biggest mistake of his life right there.]

Hard to determine whether those archways are worth the asking price. I don't particularly care for being grounded, but I don't care to give up something to fly again.

[The man nods, his expression uncharacteristically serious.]

Indeed. I'd very much like to taste the sky again, but some things are more precious than flight.
