[It is some time after things have returned to what passes for "normal" around here: the Mirrors are back behind the mirrors, people have stopped randomly spouting the truth, and nothing too overly drastic seems to have occurred. The hour is midday, and Sephiroth is ordering his thought much as he would have back in his office in Midgar.
The first order of business is one SOLDIER Second; Sephiroth had been pleased with Kunsel's performance when they were stuck in the mirrored landscape. He wishes to follow up with that now.]
[This is unexpected. Not unwelcome, but unexpected.]
[So much so that Kunsel waits a few moments before responding, using the time between to contemplate whether he might have done something, anything at all (that anyone knows about), that would prompt a lecture from the General. Nothing comes to mind, however.]
['Evaluation' is simply Sephiroth's way of wording things. His relationship to Kunsel is not one of friends, but rather of superior officer to subordinate. While part of his motivation is to test the boundaries of the other man's skills— a commander has need of the knowledge, especially in a place so seemingly unpredictable— another part of it is that Sephiroth is the General, and does not know how to simply ask the other man for a spar.]
I do not doubt that you have been keeping up with your training. I am pleased. I would ask you to meet me one morning, on the beach perhaps.

Kunsel, a word when you have a moment.

Kunsel here.
I have a moment. What is it, sir?

of the other side. But I need a more proper
evaluation of your skills. Is this amenable
to you?
text;
Thank you.
And...yes, sir. I've been keeping them
sharp, I promise. But an evaluation does
sound like a good idea. I don't mind.
[Though he wonders if anyone else has had one of these 'evaluations' or if he's getting singled out because he's a Second among Firsts.]

I'll be there with bells on, sir!
Not to be taken literally, of course.
