There is No Witty Euphemism For Dividing And/Or Conquering (Part 1/?)

Fandom: FFXII/FFVII (Stockmarket AU)
Characters/Pairings: Balthier/Tseng, Tseng/Rufus, Balthier/Rufus (established!!)
Rating/Warnings: R
Word Count: 4001
Summary: Tseng's in New York, and so is the fledging Shinra-Bunansa empire: whether that is the point or the problem is anybody's guess. Hedging on futures can be such a tricky thing.

Functional explanation: The joint fault of

karanguni and

ellnyx. The earlier arc can be found here!

( Even though he now works under the Shinra corporate name, Balthier still doesn't sit in on boardroom meetings so much as he drops by every once in a while, a presence at the far end of the table with his legs or arms crossed, watching, sleeping, breathing. )
