Quotes

I once lived on an island and ate nothing but fish for 3 years! When Vector was destroyed, I ran off with all the magicite. Want to buy some? Ever feel like too many people are named Cid? No? My yellow banana outfit indiciates that I am the highest ranked researcher in the lab. You seem to have a talent for magic. Care to buy any magicite?
