[addictum]

[A relatively short teenager with punkish blond hair and a very conspicuous black coat wanders around the Plane. The first thing he finds is the kitchen. He examines it curiously, all the while talking to himself.]

Doesn't seem like there's anything strange about it... but how does it work?

[He turns on the faucet and samples the water.]Where

Comments

[holmes_fanatic]

... you know, that's a good question.

[Have a tiny seven-year-old with a bemused expression.]

[addictum]

[BUH. Roxas backs up quickly and ends up hitting his head on the inside of the fridge.] Ow... [He rubs at his head, squinting at the visitor.]

Um... hi.

[He's so good at this. SO SMOOTH.]

[holmes_fanatic]

Ah, sorry! I didn't mean to surprise you, Oniisan!

[Ducking his head in apology, Conan makes his way over to the sink, opening the cupboards beneath it to examine the pipes.]

[addictum]

It's okay. Don't worry about it.

[He shuts the fridge and watches Conan instead.]

... What are you doing?

[oliverplus]

[Oliver doesn't recognise the outfit, but he does know that kid] ...Roxas? What are you doing?

[addictum]

[Roxas jumps and smacks his head against the fridge in a hurry to get his head out.] O-ow--!

[Blink blink. Wait. There is a guy he has never seen before and he just said Roxas' name. Roxas does a pretty mean impression of a deer in headlights.]

I... uh...

[He is so damn confused right now.]

[oliverplus]

[Oliver winces] Sorry! You okay?

[and when Roxas stares at him, he just stares right back, wondering how hard he just hit his head] Um...is your head okay?

[addictum]

Y-- yeah, I'm fine.

[He could go along with it, but he has no idea where to start.]

I've been here before?

[spacewich]

[Jade happens upon the boy in his black coat as he investigates yet another kitchen wonder.]

Hi!!!! :) Are you looking for something?

[addictum]

[THERE ARE MIRACLES GOING ON HERE, LADIES AND GENTS. The voice of an unfamiliar girl does, in fact, make him straighten up a little too quickly. He shuts his hand in the fridge in his hurry to close it.] Ow-ow-ow-- uh, hi. [Herp a derp derp herp. Why can't he ever talk to girls?] I was... looking for someone, actually.

[And also a way out, since what the fuck is with his portals here and why aren't they working?]

[spacewich]

[Whoops! She didn't mean for that to happen but can't hold back a tiny giggle.]

Maybe I can help you! What does the person you're looking for look like?

[addictum]

Well, she's a little shorter than I am, with dark hair and a coat like mine. Her name's Xion.

[Though he tries to keep his voice light, it's clear that he's worried about her.]

[grand_gaia]

Roxas!!

[Isaac remembers people, even if they've been gone for a long time]

What's with the new getup?

[addictum]

[BONK. Roxas staggers away from the fridge, holding the back of his head. Fuck fuck ow ow fuck ow fuck ow that was not pleasant. He squints and waits for the world to stop spinning, then sees... someone who isn't a member of the Order.]

Uh... [Just play along, just play along. He goes for what he hopes is a neutral remark.] ... Does it matter?

[grand_gaia]

Ah! Aare you alright?!

No, not really....just surprising. You've been gone for kind of a long time.

[darkercalling]

[Riku was certainly not expecting this. He came into the kitchen to take a break, have a snack, relax a bit... and what does he see? That coat. Warning bells immediately go off in the back of his mind.

He stands by the far wall, arms crossed, watching. He'll wait until the kid turns around...]

[addictum]

[A shiver down his spine lets him know that he's being watched. He frowns, then glances around with eyes that could belong to Sora.

He spies the boots first... then the coat. His expression of curiosity shifts into one of alarm, and he assumes a defensive stance.]

Who are you?!

[darkercalling]

[If Riku wasn't blindfolded, Roxas might have been able to see his surprise. This kid, he looks a hell of a lot like...

Well. Things just got interesting. Riku steps away from the wall, straightening up, arms falling to his side.]

You know, I was going to ask you that.

[addictum]

[How Roxas got here can wait. There's a strange boy in front of him. He tries to sound tough, but he's confused and lost and very much on edge.]

I asked first! Why are you wearing that coat? You're not part of the Order.
