Red Equals Passionate
[A glimpse becomes a look; they could not be more different but they still balance each other out. GenesisxRosso; drabble series]
Disclaimer: I do not own these characters or the FFVII franchise. Same applies to the Dissidia characters.
A/N: And then He said; "So that womankind may bear children, let them shed blood from their loins once every month." This is 's request from the list, which is essentially what Deepground is like whenever Rosso has her menstrual period. It's from Genesis' PoV and him describing the state of things when it's Rosso's time of the month as well as what she's like. Depending on how it's received, I might or might not rewrite this.
Unstable Calm
He knew women were temperamental and dangerous creatures when it was their time of the month. The ex-SOLDIER just never actually realized the extent of that danger. Just as in Wutai, it was monsoon season in Deepground, though it was of an entirely different sort altogether.
It was that time of the month for Rosso the Crimson.
Genesis had mixed feelings towards this event. On the one hand, it was funny how even Weiss the Immaculate—the most powerful of the Tsviets and Deepground as a whole—stayed out of Rosso's way lest some or all of him be compromised in some painful and terrible manner. On the other, this was Rosso at her absolute worst.
To the point Genesis suspected even Sephiroth would take one look at the Crimson Tsviet and run like an angry mob of tonberries was chasing him.
Oh Gaia, some unfortunate soul had the bad luck of being in the wrong place at the wrong time and was now being subjected to the horror that was Rosso the Crimson PMS-ing. During her cycle, Rosso had a tendency towards dramatic mood swings and extreme switching of personalities. To top it off, anything could trigger the switch.
There were two general personalities, which Genesis dubbed because it sounded strangely right, Cosmos and Chaos:
Cosmos was the personality that made Rosso fit the standards of "nice" and "friendly"; so out of character you wondered if Minerva decided to deliberately screw up the laws of nature to see what resulted from that.
Chaos was less disturbing than Cosmos but no less scary. Chaos!Rosso was many times more likely to give a person absolute HELL. Hell, in every sense of the word and beyond that of human comprehension.
The screams coming from the right fork in the hallway indicated she had switched from Cosmos to Chaos!Rosso.
Genesis quietly slipped LOVELESS back into his coat pocket and turned back the way he came, walking down the hallway as fast as possible without looking like he, ex-SOLDIER First Class Genesis Rhapsodos, was retreating.
A/N: For those who are confused about the allusions to Cosmos and Chaos, they are characters from Dissidia Final Fantasy (which, btw, is a kickass game).
Cosmos: Goddess of Harmony in Dissidia Final Fantasy. Every now and then she and Chaos battle for control of the universe (something along those lines). Me thinks WoL (Warrior of Light [FFI]) may have a thing for her. The villains refer to her as the "Goddess of Death."
Chaos: God of Discord in Dissidia Final Fantasy (not to be confused with Chaos from FFVII; they're totally different). He battles Cosmos for control of the universe.
