Red Mage | Okay, I have diligently spent the last several moments forging a plan that will guarantee our victory. Ready? |
Fighter | Bring it! |
Black Mage | Bring it? He's not calling us out, moron. Shush. |
Red Mage | Thief, you will sneak aboard the pirate ship and steal all their weapons. |
Thief | I think I already did, but anyway, I'm on it! |
Red Mage | Fighter, you will slay them with your mighty Zodiac Kenshido prowess. |
Fighter | (holding his sword) I like this plan! |
Red Mage | Black Mage, you will provide heavenly artillery in the form of lightning while Fighter slaughters the stupid pirates. |
Black Mage | I admit I was skeptical of this plan before, but now it appeals to me for some reason. |
Red Mage | Okay! Let's rock, baby. |
Black Mage | Hold up here, cap'n feather-hat. |
Thief | "Cap'n Feather-hat"? |
Fighter | |
Black Mage | You shut up. They can't all be classics. Anyway, what's Red Mage going to do? |
Red Mage | To answer your question, BM, I will fulfill the role most vital to our success today. I'll be... well, it's a little like supervising, but completely different. I'll stay in the back where I can observe the battle from afar and give commands to you, my troops, which reflect the ever changing face of war! |
Black Mage | I see. So you'll be supervising, then. |
Red Mage | Er... while that's certainly one interpretation of the job I described, it is not, necessarily, a valid one. |
Pause. | |
Red Mage | Of course, in this case, it is. However I maintain that it could have been otherwise if conditions were different. |
Black Mage | Let's just go and kill the pirates already. |
