1. console: video
[When the video feed begins, there is a redhead frowning at the screen.]
As far as planets go, this isn't the worst place I've been to. Though I suppose this hardly counts as a planet.
[The frown deepens, and it's obvious that he is struggling to wrap his head around the fact that he has found himself here on a turtle and it's difficult to grasp.]
However, there are some deep-seated issues in this city that should be addressed. How do you expect to have any sort of progress when this place is so divided? There is strength in unity, which all of you seem to fail to see. Instead of competing with one another for power, wealth, and resources, it would be much more logical for all of you to fall in line. Some who have power and autonomy do not always deserve it, and are too feeble-minded for it. Should they cast their support in favour of those who are fit to lead, there will no longer be chaos.
If you're honest with yourself, you can admit that it's what's best for any society.

Perhaps. Who do you have in mind?
[He's more than willing to let other people do the work for him. Imeanwhat.]
video;
A small gathering of like-minded individuals who are looking for strong, centralized leadership. I reckon they could use someone like you.
Though as you might suspect, considering past events, their opinions would not be very popular.
video;
You know little about me. Why would you even consider that?
[If Balthier is being legit with him, there's the potential of this being promising, but Hux isn't that trusting.]
Re: video;
[Vayne had better hair though. Balthier can give credit where it's due.]
video;
How would you describe that person?
video;
[The first part is easy enough to pull off with a straight face. Vayne got credit where it was due - the man was a political genius, if utterly ruthless. The next part... well, if Balthier knew about the Oscars, he'd think he'd deserve one for being able to pull off a bald-faced lie so utterly perfectly.]
The Archadian Empire never knew a finer leader.
video;
[He's not acknowledging the dig about subtlety, because if he wanted to be subtle, he would've done it. It wasn't the route he would've taken in other circumstances, but he's not disappointed in the results.]
Re: video;
[Or was. But it's not like this guy is from Ivalice and would know better. At least, Balthier doesn't think he is.]
Mind telling me where you're from, oh champion of order?
video;
[Not that he spends much time there anymore.]
Re: video;
[He wishes he could say anything surprised him anymore.]
