003- [video/action] - a fool's errand
Who: Ardyn and YOU!
Broadcast: Yes
Action: SS RED FISH
When: Now
[The feed snaps on to show a rather annoyed Chancellor of Niflheim ripping down several posters containing rather nasty rumours about himself.]
I suppose this is some kind of joke? An amusing attempt to gain ratings for this sordid show I presume? Someone, or person's unknown, have been writing some rather sordid rumours about myself. Here, let me read you one of them:
"Ardyn Izunia is a MAGICAL GIRL called SAILOR ARDYN. He has the ABILITY of DUMPSTER DIVING. He wears a pink skirt that comes above his knees-"
Dare I read anymore of this filth? If anyone is responsible for this aboard any of these ships then I may have to come and have a little chat with you. Of course, this could be sent from our masters, the Atroma. I can assure you of this; the ratings will not be raised because of this.
[He's angry, ashamed and downright embarrassed. Not a good cocktail. He's looking at you, Noctis. Did you place these rumours aboard his ship? Ignis? Do you hate him so much to do this? Lady Lunafreya, would you even dare?]
I'm not laughing and there is no reason why any of you should be either.

OMG KIRK
[Oh gods. Not another one.]
It is not my desire to be made a fool of by whoever wrote these preposterous rumours. It seems everyone is getting the wrong impression of me and it deeply wounds my pride.
Re: OMG KIRK
Then fair word of advice - might want to work on some thicker skin around that pride. This is cute compared to some of the glitches I've seen. And not everything here is as private as you think.
Better that this bit about the skirt is out in the open now.

[He was fuming about the whole scandal surrounding these rumours. How dare someone write this filth about him!]
Explain to me what you mean about these....glitches you speak of.
no subject
Like I said, if you don't learn to laugh some of this stuff off, you're just going to be upset all the time, and that can't be good for your blood pressure.
[ It's rather interesting how upset he is over it. It wasn't even that bad of a rumor, honestly. ]
Hmm, they happen because of the thing they implanted in our heads. Sometimes they 'glitch' and cause weird side-effects, such as physically aging you up and down, or causing auditory and visual oddities.
no subject
[Would it? Could it? He prayed that it couldn't leave the fleet.]
I'm the Chancellor of Niflheim. Things like this could ruin a man in my job.
[A beat.]
Visual oddities, you say? Have you experienced such things before?
no subject
In all likelihood it won't - considering it's probably in an whole other dimension. And if this alone would ruin your reputation, then it probably needs some work anyways.
[ Casual burn is super casual there. ]
Yes, I have.
[ The words are a touch short, not quite clipped, the message is there. He would rather not revisit that incident. ]
