Cloud, internally: I am suave. I am cool. I am the epitome of grace. I kill without mercy, I fight with the strength of a hundred men, I am one of the underappreciated greatest. Shinra is filled with dumbasses, but I am the very few who still retain good cognitive function
Cloud, in front of a large crowd: uh

Paras on Parade
Tumblr media
Marching in the parade with the helmet on is an oddly serene experience. It's like being in the middle of a bustling city, but all the noise, the chaotic chatter of the crowd, is muffled. The HUD is set to blinker mode, and suddenly, it's as if there's a protective bubble around me.
The rhythmic thud of our boots hitting the pavement becomes the soundtrack of the moment. Commands are crisp and clear, transmitted directly into my earpiece. I can focus on the precision of our formation, the synchronicity of our movements. It's almost meditative, in a way.
The vision, usually directed forward, occasionally highlights important points of interest – statues, displays, or notable landmarks. It's a controlled and calculated experience. And sometimes, there's music – marches that keep us in step, like a well-oiled machine.
Wearing the helmet, I feel a sense of detachment from the outside world, cocooned in my own little universe. It's a unique perspective, one that lets me appreciate the parade in a different way, even if it's not the same as what the cheering crowds experience.
The directors are strategic in their use of blinker mode. It's not just about reducing sensory overload; it's about emphasizing our dedication. When they highlight a specific point of interest, be it a statue of a revered figure or a display representing our values, they're sending a message to the onlookers.
It's a subtle way of saying, "Look at these paramedics, these conscripts. See their unwavering focus, their commitment to duty." The blinker mode isolates our attention on what matters, and it amplifies the solemnity of the occasion.
As we march past, the crowd sees our unbroken ranks, our synchronized movements, and our undistracted dedication. It's a powerful image, and it reinforces the ideals of the Paramedic Corps. We might not hear the cheers or the applause, but our message is loud and clear: we are here to serve, to protect, and to honor our commitments.
The blinker mode, with its orchestrated precision and focus on dedication, is indeed a powerful symbol of life in the Paramedic Corps. It encapsulates the essence of our existence – unwavering commitment, obedience, and selflessness. It's a stark reminder of the conditioning, the training, and the conformity we've all undergone.
The world beyond the blinkers becomes a blur. Cheers and applause from the spectators fall on deaf ears, mere background noise to our purpose-driven march.
In some ways, it's an apt metaphor for our entire existence. The blinkers narrow our view, block out distractions, and channel our energy into fulfilling our duties. It's a life of routine, discipline, and adherence to orders.
This is a subjective account of the description here:

Hey E! Gang,
my standalone Gif from my yesterday’s episode.
So nice when Cap Stanley looks after the kid, shows her the engine and gives her his helmet. Such a nice gesture! Aw, I love this man.

A ROMAN TINNED COPPER CAVALRY PARADE HELMET
CIRCA LATE 2ND-FIRST HALF OF 3RD CENTURY A.D.
11 in. (28 cm.) high.
This rare cavalry parade helmet is one of just a handful to have survived and displays the extraordinary lengths Roman craftsmen went to convey the high status of their patrons. Crafted from a single metal sheet, this helmet is elaborately decorated in extensive repoussé work, including 3 mythical beasts and a gorgoneion. A high crest running along the dome has been fashioned in the form of a sea-griffin, with an eagle's beaked head emerging from the terminus and arching along the length, tapering in a fish or dolphin-like tail above the neck guard. The sea-griffin holds the head of Medusa in its forelegs at the crown. Each side is decorated in high relief with a sea-griffin. Originally all three creatures had now-missing ears riveted in place. The helmet is further ornamented with punched circles and dots along the edges of the dome and rim. With the hinged bronze facemask, which has now been lost, this warrior would have been poised for a dramatic effect in battle or ceremony.
While the Greeks had transitioned into lighter and more open armor to maximize the senses, the Roman cavalry choose to cover their entire face and head, leaving only their eyes, nose and mouth visible.
