It took a lot of practice, throughout the years, but using a robot as his medium?

It was so much easier. He supposed it was a good thing that he had an interest in robotics. But truth be told, he was always a creative boy, so really, it was only natural to go into robotics.

Or at least that's how Reeve felt.

So. A robotic medium was easier to use than his old toys. Just, in general. From movement, to sight, to hearing, everything. The voice box was a bit of a… splurge one might say. Reeve's inner trickster thought it could come quite handy for pranks.

However it did make it hard not to laugh in the vents.

"What was that?" Some poor science assistant asked from below Reeve's view point.

Or, well, Cait really.

It truly was hard to get his giggles down. But he had to do a classic.

As Reeve's body was signing papers in his office, his soul made the robot Cait continue into the vents. Just a bit further and he'll have his job done.

This was Scarlet's fault really. So it'll be focused on Scarlet. A little bit here, a little bit there, and he waited.

Scarlet's shriek of rage had Reeve tremble in his own body, trying so very hard not to laugh.

Glitter of different sizes as well as Chocobo feathers erupted from the vents, moved everywhere by fans. And Scarlet? Absolutely caked in feathers and glitter.

He even threw some vulgar shaped glitter in there as well.

Cait made a quick escape through the vents, and made his way outside of Shinra Tower. When he made sure he was far enough away from any cameras or people, he let out a laugh.

Reeve's mother always did tell him his knack would make him into a little trickster if he felt mischievous enough. She was right of course.

But well, Reeve needed some outlet. Might as well make the other directors suffer a bit while he gets a good laugh out of it.


Hey future me quick poping in to say that Reeve's and Cait's situation is based off a fic I had read and loved called "Through Another's Eyes" by CorsairOriginal over on AO3. It's a really good fic that focuses on Reeve, Elmyra, and Marlene. Mostly Reeve but we get to read from Elmyra's POV and lovly Marlene is there. Onto past me's note from when this was originally posted on just AO3.

Thanks for the FF7 fic server I'm in reminding me I wrote this short little thing. I felt the need to share it because we need more gremlin Reeve in our lives. Also I just think Reeve being Cait and not an AI is funny. Man's just vibing and talking to himself for the banter.
