Dare I continue to delve into the minds of these wondrous beings? Well, I will, though I may mess up entirely...

Remember, I don't own these ladies, gentlemen, and monsters, none of all, but don't truly care to try changing that as I would be mowed down in the crowd.


At this point, I have the following Guardians yet to deal with: (not that it guarantees that I will) Bahamut, Eden, Gilgamesh, Griever, and Odin. There's no telling what order either. I have about two weeks left before I disappear for about three months, so I have to hurry to get all of this done.


~~Tonberry King~~

I avoid humans. They avoid me. It has worked out quite well that way for quite some time. I have no intention of changing it. But if a human does so, I will not argue. I will not make it easy for the human either, but I will not argue.

The Tonberry King rested within the ruins of the ancient civilization, knowing that humans rarely ventured there. He settled back in his little crevice of the ruins, knowing that even when the humans did explore the building, they rarely lived long enough to bother any of the inhabiting monsters, or even any of the tonberrys. It was a rare thing for the king to get reports of human encounters.

~~Ifrit~~

Tonberry doesn't hold the humans in contempt, but he certainly doesn't go out of his way to make friends with them either. If it were his choice, that place he picked to hide out in would be completely closed off so that no one and nothing could get in.

When the first tonberry returned from its wanderings, with a story of three humans that were walking about aimlessly, the king didn't think much of it. After all, only one of his subjects had reported it, so that meant the humans would leave quickly.

But they didn't. Another tonberry reported an encounter with the same humans, and then another. The numbers kept rising, until the Tonberry King decided to do something about it. He confronted the youngsters, and learned quickly that they knew what they were about.

~~Shiva~~

He never expected someone to actually go out of their way to try gaining his attention. Tonberry never thought of himself as important enough to warrant such actions. He really didn't know what to make of those children.

~~--~~

After the first attack made by those children, Tonberry realized that he wasn't battling a group of fools, but three youths who had prepared thoroughly for this encounter. He felt the other Guardians in the minds of these youngsters.

After the long, long battle ended, Tonberry acknowledged their strength, and decided to join them. He offered his power to the apparent leader, who paused, then told Tonberry that the kind's power would be better suited to use by the tallest male. Tonberry mentally nodded to the other Guardians in the young man's mind, and discovered that this one thought highly of his skills with women.

Irvine paused as he felt the slightly cool mindset of the huge tonberry slide into his mind. The mellow humor at his thoughts toward women surfaced as well. Irvine realized that this Guardian was intended to keep him in line.

~~Tonberry~~

That dark haired boy has a sense of humor just as dark as his choice of clothing. He is a good leader though he does not see himself as one.

I got back to playing the game recently so, I can detail a few of the summons more accurately. I also know whom I actually matched up with whom at the end of the game, and I guess I didn't have Irvine at the end after all...
