WHO: Zelos Wilder THE RISING PHOENIX
WHERE: Network
WHEN: Forward Dated to 3/16, after the kidnappings
WHAT: CODENAMES
WARNINGS: I'm sorry

[At first, Zelos looks serious in his broadcast. People he knew got kidnapped after all! This is serious]

I just went to talk to Zodiac about the people missing. They gave some intel on where they were taken, but most important -- they made it very clear we shouldn't give our names to anyone that dwells in that realm if we go after them.

So...I have a plan! [his tone starts turning to cheery. Oh. Oh no] We should all come up with code names to call each other while they're there!

If you got one, great! Go ahead and sound it off in the comments so we all know what to call you! If you don't, then send me a photo of yourself and I will use my genius intellect to give you the perfect code name!

[this is likely a bad idea don't let him have that power]

And don't worry, I've already come up with my own as an example. While we're in the realm, you can call me: ✨The Rising Phoenix✨! Perfect, isn't it?

Okay, you guys next! Show me what you got!

[He sounds way too proud of himself. Help]

No, the Twelve are the major deities in Eorzea.

[So she was swearing.

And while she can appreciate already knowing how she works: rude, Zelos.]

I'll just use one of my sister's names or perhaps one of the Scion's. Or Auntie Rhela's, at least I'd respond to that one...

[wilder]

A sword swinging at my head? Man you're already visualizing the kinds of fights you'll be getting into during this mission aren't you?

[But oh. Oh he perks up. Just what he wanted.]

Oh oh, I got a good one-

[dramatically]

Feathered Fatale ✨

[wilder]

Oh.

[Swearing, got it. He won't ask further because gods are bullshit anyway]

Aw c'mon, that's all? We're going on a mission to another mysterious realm! Danger at every turn! Why not get a little more creative with the name?

[thaumewturge]

[Ah.

Well.]

I am...not especially creative when it comes to names. I had a chocobo named after my brother for the longest, and the less said about the names I gave my dolls as a girl, the better.

[So, so many "her name is Blue cuz her dress is blue" and "she's pretty like Mama so her name is Mama" when she was little.]

[missingache]

No thanks. [Thinking...] My last name translated is Count. Would that work? It's not not my name, but just not the right language.

[cardinalrule]

Something most people here don't have.

Anyways, I'm going to use my title. It works well enough as a codename for this, and people should be using it anyways.

[nefilim]

Well, we're apparently dealing with a Dulahan so our heads will probably be prime targets. Maybe they'll decide they want to be a redhead.

[Also wait why is he perking up like that -

- Oh.]

Now that makes me sound like some kind of villian!

[wilder]

Well I wouldn't blame them! Being a redhead is pretty great.

[...]

My dear, you have creepy floating eyes. You might as well lean into it.

[nefilim]

I've got them under control now! Kinda!

[And her voice may have cracked a bit because "my dear" is still a panic button for her apparently - ]

Well... If it's shortened to Feather it sounds cute, so I'll go with it.

[wilder]

[He makes a sound of agreement to the first part. It's true. Lack of pizzazz in this place. So sad]

Yeah, thought you might do something like that. This worked out to be all pretty convenient for you, huh.

[wilder]

Count?

I mean, I don't see why not. Is that the name you wanna go with?

[wilder]

Oh...yikes, yeah. I see what you mean.

Well, not too worry! I got a name lined up!

What about: The Azure Enchantress~?

[Falcom's gonna be knocking on his door for stealing their favorite word]

[thaumewturge]

[She giggles a little because honestly? That's charming if a bit dorky.]

That sounds like a title! But, well, depending on who we're up against I may just use it!

[Urianger would be so proud.]

[wilder]

Did your voice just...crack?

[Because yes he noticed that and yes he's annoying enough to point it out]

Feather! Alright, I like it!

[biothermal]

[Welp. She wasn't expecting to be put on the spot like this, but here she is, suddenly feeling a little more than awkward.]

I uh. Haven't. Had to think about anything of the sort before.

[kokaiwanai]

Codenames, huh? I was going to use a character name if I got asked, but a codename does sound more fun.

[He can't help but grin a little, excited by the idea.]

And I'll gladly hear suggestions for one, Mr. Rising Phoenix.

[wilder]

What are titles but fancy code names anyway!

[not that he'll ever share his, hell no.]

Great! Then I'll be sure to use it!

[wilder]

Right? If we're going on a rescue mission, we might as well have a little fun!

[Or something]

Sure sure! I need inspiration, so tell me about yourself! What do you want your codename to say about you to the world?

[wilder]

Well now's the time! But don't worry, Rising Phoenix is here to help!

So tell me about yourself. What kind of stuff would you like the world to know about you?

[nefilim]

Don't. Don't you say anything.

[Because she 10000% knows he'll be annoying about it.]

But okay! Good! Now I won't worry about being spirited away or whatever.

[wilder]

[He holds up his hands in surrender]

Alright, alright...

[Weird, but he won't push further. ]

Yeah, we got enough with trying to track down Adol. Who knows how many things he's tried putting in his mouth by now.

[nefilim]

[And she does visibly relax at that. Don't perceive her almost-fluster.]

I mean, he should be okay right? He's made of pretty strong stuff...

... Buuuuut the sooner we get him out, the better. Hopefully he hasn't eaten anything too weird, I don't wanna come across him changed into like a skunk or something.

[neverbreaks]

Oh...that's a good idea. [ Coming up with a code name would definitely help. ]

I have no idea what I'd call myself, though. [ So...yeah. Help pls ]

[wilder]

[he makes a face]

If he's gotten himself turned into a skunk he's sleeping on the balcony.

[wilder]

That's fine, that's fine- I can offer my assistance!

Tell me about yourself, what things would you like the world to know about you?
