[Wufei hums in agreement, nodding even though Sephiroth has closed his eyes.] If it becomes possible, I would be happy to show you. Going to the floating islands and using the wing backpacks is the closest you can get here.
[He nods again.] It's not quite as good, it's only flying after all, but it's very pleasant. [It's one of his favorite things, he means.] It can be difficult if you're not a skilled pilot, but I'd be happy to accompany you.
[ Sephiroth makes no mention of his own abilities. He likes testing others to prove their worth and this sounds like a fun challenge. A little of his enthusiasm shows in his eyes and the way they narrow just the slightest bit. ]
[He knows that look, and it makes him smirk. Sephiroth thinks he can best a gundam pilot?
Now that's something Wufei has to see.] If you're looking for a real challenge, we should invite Duo along. He's an even better pilot than I am. Best in the earth sphere, in fact.
[ Sephiroth picks up on that but, as usual, doesn't care what anyone else thinks. He does smirk a little though--a proven tactic sure to inspire others to try their hardest against him, along with what he says next. ]
You seem confident. That's good.
[ The clear implication being don't disappoint me. ]
There are not many who would make such a request of me.
[ Sephiroth has so many doubts. No one has ever come close to equaling him, after all, and the only ones who could hope to try are his fellow SOLDIER 1sts. ]
[He tips his head forward in a nod.] If you're concerned I'm asking for more than I can handle, let's agree not to aim for any death blows. Call it friendly sparring with live steel, hmm? Besides, you have healing magic. [He shrugs, as if getting wounded would be no big deal.]
[If nothing else, holding back might be challenging.]
Likewise. [Though he's starting to realize he probably doesn't stand a chance -- it wouldn't be the first time he's challenged someone here only to find himself wildly outclassed. It was a very good motivator.]

Is that so?
[ This is him being very interested. ]

In that case, there is someone I would like to bring.
[ He is sure Aerith will like this and he will enjoy having her for an audience. ]

[He's only half teasing -- if Sephiroth wants to impress someone, Wufei is more than happy to help.]

I will not take your life.
[ That is Sephiroth for okay, fine. ]

How about this evening as the sun is setting?
