Hey. My name's Rude. I'm looking for work.
[ It might have taken a couple of beers to muster the courage to post to the network, if the level 3 bar scene behind him is any indication. There's the steam and hiss of frying noodles, the glow of signs advertising other brands of alcohol, and a low murmur of general conversation. The bar he walked into might not be inside the red light district proper, but you wouldn't have to walk far to reach it.
What can he say? It feels a lot more like home. ]
Got a few practical skills. I can fix things. Move things. Done a lot of work guarding things. And people.
[ God, this is hard. How do you sell yourself without revealing that you worked for the evil megacorp? How do you even talk to a camera without hating every moment of it? He pauses to swig a mouthful of beer. ]
...doesn't have to be permanent. One-offs are fine, if someone needs help with something quick. I can, uh...generate chroma too. If needed. [ He pauses, searching for words. ] Oh - I can operate a helicopter too, if that's useful.
...again, it's Rude. [ Another pause, another drink. ] And before you ask, yeah. I've heard the joke before.

no subject
[ She can't possibly sense the conflict going on inside. This must be a long time in the past for her. She looks older, just a little. Calmer. They can't be from the same time.
He shuts off the camera with a short nod and thinks about it a while. It's probably not a trap. Shinra hadn't warned him that Avalanche were out for blood. As unbelievable as it felt for him, she could actually just be genuinely friendly. Towards him.
He considers whether he should actually go or not for quite some time. ]
