Alabasta Kingdom, Atla Mountain.
Inside the hall of the wooden villa, Sephiroth lounged on a single sofa, gently swirling a stemmed glass filled with purplish-red grape juice in his hand as he occasionally teased Princess Vivi, who was dressed in a blue dancer's outfit and being forced to dance before him.
"Right! Twist your waist more, make your eyes and expression more seductive... Stick out your butt and shake it..."
Listening to the endless hateful remarks coming from the young man, Vivi could no longer keep dancing. She stopped, veins bulging on her forehead, her right fist clenched as she gritted her teeth. "You damned bastard of a boss! I'm your secretary, not a bunny girl, nurse, maid... and definitely not a dancer. Can you stop making me do all this nonsense?"
Hearing that, Sephiroth raised his glass and took a sip of grape juice before smacking his lips and speaking with a hint of sentimentality. "Nana, I just love that unruly, unwilling look of yours. It's just... too adorable! Hahaha!"
By the end, the young man was clutching his stomach and laughing uproariously.
Vivi: "..."
Such a handsome guy. Too bad he wasn't mute!
"Alright, alright! Since you don't want to dance anymore, take a break!"
After laughing enough, Sephiroth took an empty stemmed glass from the table and filled it with purplish-red grape juice from a bottle of chilled grape juice.
After taking a sip and replenishing the water she had lost through dancing, Vivi muttered, "You're really strange. You even use a stemmed glass to drink grape juice!"
"Ah! Can't help it. It's a habit I picked up from drinking red wine."
"Then why don't you just drink red wine?"
"Drinking interferes with work. It can make me lose my ability to think rationally, so I quit."
