04. [video] Fortune

[When the video begins, Red's already slumped back into the pilot's seat of his airship, his weary posture and tired limbs looking like they'd already long-since given out on him. He's breathless and panting- and not even in a particularly dog-like way- while sweat somehow manages to run off of his fur. Or is that just water? It'd explain why he was in his blitzball outfit. And all those bruises.

And yet, somehow, his face is the biggest, toothiest smile most people would ever have seen from him.]


..I... did it.

[He pauses, reaching beside him to grab a hold of a metallic water bottle with an oddly familiar logo on it, and ravenously gulps from it a few times between heaving breaths before using the rest to douse himself.

A few seconds of a more familiar canine head-shaking, water-flinging dryoff later- and a quiet ugh from the offscreen moogle- he catches his breath enough to continue.]


Starting lineup. Dragons. Cloud City.

[...and then, as if he suddenly remembered he was actually broadcasting this--]

Uh-- I'm Red. I play Blitzball. For the Cloud City Dragons. It's a great sport. Come watch me sometime. ...cause I just got promoted!!

[He manages a fistbump for a few seconds before his fist quivers, and with a weak groan his arm soon goes limp. Yup. That muscle was probably pulled.]

...So yeah. Tryin' to think of how I should celebrate. Any ideas?

...Y'know, after I get some rest.

WELL, IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE! IF YOU WANT TO KEEP IT TRADITIONAL, A SIMPLE RED SAUCE, PERHAPS SOME MEATBALLS OR SAUSAGE WILL DO!

I JUST DON'T WANT YOU TO FEEL LIMITED IF YOU FEEL ADVENTUROUS!


[Cooking is all about expression, anyway! Maybe? Mostly, it's about producing delicious food, but still. It's an artform!]

OKAY, OKAY!

[SIGH. He can't fault Red for wanting to keep it simple. So! Simple it is.]

IN THAT CASE, I RECOMMEND NOODLES, A RED SAUCE, AND YOUR CHOICE OF MEAT. SAUSAGE AND MEATBALLS ARE TWO OF THE MOST ICONIC CHOICES!

YOU COULD BY CANNED SAUCE, BUT IF YOU WANT SOMETHING FRESH... TOMATOES, PERHAPS SOME PUREE, GARLIC, ONION, OREGANO, AND OLIVE OIL SHOULD DO THE TRICK. PEPPER FLAKES ARE OPTIONAL, BUT SOME PEOPLE LIKE THE ADDED FLAVOR. LIKEWISE, YOU COULD ADD A LITTLE PARMESAN TO YOUR PASTA IF YOU SO DESIRE!
