[And now for something completely different. Now that they're all back and settled, Marco has his phoenix half back and he missed it. Maybe a little too much. With the cold weather and snow he's too sleepy to be bothered running around like an anarchist. Nope, instead, there's a fiery blue phoenix curled up around a family of baby chocobo. And then the phoenix is just Marco, still covered in fiery blue sparkly flames and fiddling with the communicator seeing that it's already on.]
Mah... annoying thing. Well whatever, these little guys had their Mom eaten so uh... [Gee, how does a tough pirate guy explain that he's adopting a bunch of baby birds?] I'm keeping them warm until the snow's over, eh? Fuck it's cold. If anyone needs me, I'm out here. [And screw it, he's just switching back into phoenix to cuddle some birdies and make a haphazard nest in the straw.]

He's alive here, but this is his home now.

It's always people who can do weird stuff like us who get sent here, right? [ It's not a question as much as a statement. ]

Like I said, it seems more likely to me that something does it at random.

Look, if I was to kidnap a large group of people to make them work as slaves, I wouldn't leave them wondering why they're there. And I'd watch them with more than just these communicator things. These things shock people if they don't use them every so often. Now what would be the point of that? If they wanted to just watch us, cameras everywhere would work better. With these we can talk to each other and plot. We're not even stuck to just this city, people just stay here because it's easiest and this is where people come in. If they wanted to use us, they'd make sure we couldn't just run amok all over the place. Meanwhile the scientists have abandoned the people here in the past and it's every man fending for himself. When you need a resource, you take care of it. You protect it. You make sure it won't get used up or stolen by someone else: whether it's money, slaves, nakama, or land.
Whatever they want, I don't think they feel they need us. So it strikes me as opportunism. They saw a chance for something and took it, but it's no big loss to them what we do because more will come along or not.

....So what were they trying to do in the first place? Why here, I mean? What if they're looking for something here?

...You've been here awhile, right? And that's what you were able to come up with since then?
