[Insert witty, fantastic setting details here. Seriously, all you really need to know is that it's a festival. A MONTH LONG festival with Fireworks happening every night once Darkness falls.]
[He nods.] That's correct. [He was always in the care of Science Research. He's not sure how he sounds different, he's speaking properly.]
None of the researchers are here. [There's no one else authorized to look after him. No need to worry, as far as Sephiroth is concerned. He's not worried. He believes he's every bit as capable as any adult. He's confident that he'll be fine, and he's even eager to try being on his own.] I can operate independently. I won't be in trouble.
Oh, suuuuure. You say that. [ Now, is it true? Then again in the state of things Sazh can't exactly take over caring for a lost kid.
Making sure he stays out of trouble while he's around might be a different case. ]
Well, Mr. Independent, you know how to operate with a partner? Festivals aren't half as fun by yourself. [ He offers his gloved hand. ] Name's Sazh Katzroy.
[Why would he speak improperly when he knows how to speak properly? That wouldn't make any sense.]
I am. I'm trained in many forms of combat. [He says this with confidence. He knows he's much stronger and faster than ordinary humans. Obviously this means he'll be fine on his own. However, he doesn't have the most extensive experience with ordinary social situations.]
A partner? No. [He shakes his head slowly. He hasn't worked with a partner before, but it does sound like a good idea, especially as this is a new situation and an unfamiliar location. SOLDIERs work with comrades, and a partner could be useful. He takes Sazh's hand in his own, his grip firm.] My name is Sephiroth. I've never been to a festival before.
You know what? I believe you. [ Which is sad, Sephiroth. Especially on the combat bit... which goes straight from sad to deeply troubling. ] That means [ Straightening up, ahhh-- ] there's games you need to be introduced to!

This mention of "games" does catch his interest. He likes games. He brightens.]
What kinds of games?
