[ Roland doesn't answer right away, but the Determinator in him can't help it. There was definitely more to the invasion than destroying one big baddie, and he can feel that doubt tug at him since leaving Terra. ] Yeah. For now. [ There were other missions. You bet your bottom dollar Roland's going to be playing a detective. ]
[ He's attentive. The cutscene engages him just like the other one, and this time he doesn't do that thing where he talks over the voice acting. If someone walked into this scene, watching from afar, they'd find Roland smiling in earnest, almost as if he enjoys the cartoons more than he does the graphic gameplay. He does. And unlike the first few fights with smaller enemies, Roland obediently follows Tidus' instructions, drawing from the fact that he already knew what to do. His avatar casts ice on the slime, pacing his moves so that he doesn't run out of SP. He's able to run away from two of the boss's big slam moves, though the third time he gets hit with the shock of the attack. He leans forward, as if trying to see even closer into the VR headset, and he feels the pressure on his lap move towards the balls of his feet when he moves his body in time with the fast-paced action of the game. OK MR. PRESIDENT. ]
Got it! [ He abandons his attempts to stave off the smaller slimes and charges up more ice moves, but he's close to depleting his stamina. He clicks his tongue against his teeth, elbows tensing and rising against his side as the button mashing intensifies. ] Hey, is there anyway you can get me some sort of item to help me cast more magic? I'm down to 10SP and Freeze Ray is 5SP! We need more!
[ ....Is he shouting back??? Wow this is embarrassing. ]
