Kuja: Thank you, ladies and gentleman! You are too kind!

Sephiroth: Welcome to the show. You won’t BELIEVE the gossip we have today.

Kuja: But first, why not read some fan mail?

Sephiroth: Good idea, Kuja! As the most bishoden super-villains of all time, we get bags of mail a day!

Kuja: Okay, the first letter comes from … Ooh! Its from my planet, Gaia!

Sephiroth: Uh, that is so unfair. Your planet had a name … BOTH your planets did! And mine was just "The Planet".

Kuja: This letter is from a girl named ‘Melissa’, she writes: Dear Kuja and Sephiroth—OHMYGOSH you guys are sooo dreamy! I hope you read my letter on your show! And Kuja, you MUST tell me where you get your dresses! They are totally fab! Love, your biggest fan, Melissa. XOXO

Kuja: <<giggles>> WELL, Melissa, if you must know my secret, I buy my dresses in the very Alexandria that I tried to destroy! That’s right! Honey, if I’d have known that this gem of a dress shop existed there, well I’d just have Bahumut destroy Dali instead! Hehe!

Sephiroth: <<rolls his eyes>> Okay, here’s a letter from Dana in Midgar. Dana writes: Dear Sephy and Kuja, Geez, why does everyone always give you guys such a hard time. I mean, hasn’t, like, everyone considered destroying the world at some point in time? You guys just happen to be more ambitious. Anyway, best wishes—and Sephiroth, I have a poster of you on the ceiling over my bed, and I kiss it every night before I go to bed! Once I broke my nose jumping up to kiss you! Isn’t that the greatest? Love, Dana.

Kuja: Heh, what a weirdo!

Sephiroth: Hmph, well, here’s a letter from one of YOUR adoring fans, Kuja. Why don’t you read it?

Kuja: Okay! Let’s see… this one is from Pat! Pat writes: Yo, Kuja, Ever since I got locked up in the Lindblum Men’s Correctional Facility … uhh, maybe I won’t read this…

Sephiroth: Nonsense! <<snatches the letter>> Ever since I got looked up in the Lindblum Men’s Correctional Facility, I have been watching your show … and I have the hugest crush on you! You are the hottest babe I’ve ever seen!

Kuja: I am NOT A GIRL! When will people get that through their heads??

Sephiroth: Hmm … maybe when you stop dressing like one?

Kuja: Enough! I have my own personal style, okay? Hmph, I’d never expect a simpleton like you to understand the ways of a genome!

Sephiroth: Whatever, Kuja chan. Okay, here’s another letter: This one is from … Balamb Garden??

Kuja: Oh no, not again!

Sephiroth: <<reads letter>> Dear Sephiroth and Kuja: When are you guys going to let me be on your show? I’m a badass too, you know! And I’m totally bishoden! Waahhh!!! XXX – Seifer

Sephiroth and Kuja: <<both laugh out loud>>

Kuja: <<wiping tears from his eyes>> Ha ha! Seifer … bishoden? Give me a break!

Sephiroth: Totally! He doesn’t even have proportional hands!

Kuja: I KNOW! Who’s ever heard of a guy with hands that aren’t as big as his head?

Sephiroth: Alright, well, enough about us and our tortured good looks. Is this audience ready to hear all the latest Final Fantasy gossip?

Audience: YES!!

Kuja: Well, first of all, Her Highness of Alexandria is finally marrying her little lover boy Zidane.

Sephiroth: <<makes farting noise with his mouth>> BOR-ING!

Kuja: No kidding. But, oooh, did you hear: they’re having marital problems already!

Sephiroth: <<sips tea>> No!

Kuja: Yes! I hear Zidane has been unfaithful!

Sephiroth: Ugh, that monster. NOT that I’m surprised.

Kuja: Seriously.

Sephiroth: Well, I heard that Amarant is desperately begging Lani to date him.

Kuja: NO!

Sephiroth: YES! Can you believe that buffoon? As IF a raging badass like Lani would date a loser whose arms are as long as his whole body!

Kuja: I KNOW! I mean, I’m all for huge appendages, but I draw the line at arms.

Sephiroth: Indeed.

Kuja: Alright folks, well, that’s all the time we have for today. Tune in next week to see us converse with our guest General Beatrix, as we ask her the question:

Sephiroth: WHY did you turn good??

Kuja: She was so good at being bad!

Sephiroth: No kidding! And if she were a guy … she’d be totally bishoden!

Kuja: Well said. Ta-ta for now, folks! Join us again next week for Afternoon Tea!!
