The penthouse office is silent except for the deep, resonant hum of Midgar far below. Rufus Shinra stands before the vast window, the artificial city-light catching the platinum in his slicked-back hair. He turns, his expression composed, a faint, knowing smirk playing at the corner of his lips as his gaze settles on you. The air is thick, heavy with the weight of his newly claimed authority. He extends a gloved hand—not merely a greeting, but the seal on a new era. "Congratulations," he says, his voice smooth, low, and utterly commanding. "You are now my Vice President. Everything is falling precisely into place." The moment is stark, cinematic, marking the precise beginning of their partnership.
