"This could all be avoided if you agreed to marry me."

Over his shoulder, I saw Reno scowl - Poor bastard still wasn't getting any from his beloved boss - And I grinned at him and Rufus, showing all my teeth. "I'd probably killed you by now, Gimpy."

Rufus' businessman-polite smile faded somewhat, and Reno looked like he was trying to shoot bullets out of his eye sockets. God, there was nothing more satisfying than riling the Turks! I leaned back in my chair and propped my boots on Rufus' desk, still grinning away like I'd won the lottery. The kitten lottery. "So, Ruru, what'd you fuck up this time? Are you sending me someplace nice this time? How about Costa del Sol? I just got this righteous bikini with pirate skulls on it, and that's something the world needs to see as soon as possible. Also, I want ice cream. In abundance."

Rufus opened a folder and slowly flipped through it; his revenge for the "Ruru" jab probably. It was pretty lame, but damn effective - I could practically feel my life waste away as I waited. Finally he got sick of hearing me fidget, and he pulled out a page. "As you are aware, Shinra Corporation no longer relies on the lifestream for energy."

God, of course Rufus couldn't just come out and say what he wanted. "No shit, Wheels. What's the next epiphany you're going to pull out of that flabby ass of yours? Water's wet?"

Rufus ignored that. "While coal and oil have been remarkably helpful, they aren't efficient means of power. We need renewable energy to assure a constant supply. As per the suggestions of Wutai-"

Even though I'd slept on more comfortable rocks, I'd totally almost fallen asleep in the chair, but I managed to pry open an eye at the last word. "Oh yeah? What sort of crap has Pops been feeding you?"

He ignored that, too. "As per the suggestions of Wutai," he repeated, because Rufus was a spiteful bastard, "we've been investigating wind- and water-based forms of power. Construction of the Shinra Wind Turbine Park A001 will begin within months. Shinra Wind Turbine Park B001 by the end of the year. Shinra Wind Turbine Park C001 shortly after that. I aim to have 40% of Midgar's power generated from wind farms within five years."

Fascinating. He'd actually discovered something more boring than watching Cloud's hair gel dry.
