Whatever hit you took may have knocked your brains loose but at least you've still got that pretty face, hm?
[ Only Roche. He's the one SOLDIER either ballsy enough or stupid enough to sass with a Turk and how he managed to survive this long is a mystery even to him. Then again if Shinra wants a job done right they're usually picking the right tools for the job, no matter how unconventional they were. Results were results, and if he sat down to truly think about it and look at things from a bigger picture he's probably the best damn thing to ever happen to the company.
(Why take real responsibility for any damages when it can all be blamed on Avalanche and whatnot, right?) ]
Barring any giant rocks crashing into the planet I can at least say that they're not the sort to throw their expensive toys out without a good reason. I may be a Third but I my ears do work and I personally haven't heard any whispers about my fellows deserting or going AWOL, nor have I heard anything from the wolves in R&D about decommissioning us for spare parts. Least I certainly hope not, given I've still got plenty of unfinished business to take care of first.
[ He pauses to take a slow sip of piss-beer for a moment, then something else dawns on him and Roche has to catch himself lest he snort it out through his nose. That shit stinks bad enough breathing it in, he doesn't want to imagine what it'd feel like coming out the same way. ]
Maybe those people were onto something about the planet. I saw a few of their charming little posters when I was last down in Sector 7 looking for someone - "Don't let them bleed the planet dry," I believe they said? Perhaps the planet has a life of its own and decided to put an end to it itself. Tried taking out HQ and everything associated with it, including us SOLDIER.
[ That's something Roche knows is bullshit at least and it shows in the slow way a single brow curves up towards his hairline. As if saying tell me the reason. If that silly "from the past" claim has any merit then Reno oughta know the truth, no? Roche isn't important enough to toy around with compared to, say, a First. He's just a Third, after all. ]
