[You'll have to excuse the sudden influx of voice posts on the network, as they're strangely nothing but... beeps and static? If you're patient enough to scroll through them, however, you'll eventually find something of substance!

[have basically the most unassuming yet condescending voice ever.] My, don't we sound flustered. Do you need some help Tech support maybe?

[voice]

[sealtheskies]

[frowning, because bodiless voice + strange device wouldn't seem to bode well... but then again, said bodiless voice did offer to help. there's a lengthy pause.] ... Hello? Who said that?

[voice]

[notating]

[oh, you're just too entertaining to pass up. That and you look bizarrely like another Square Enix character he knows, which is simply a recipe for disaster.]

Considering I'm the one so generously offering help don't you think you should be the one to introduce yourself?

[voice]

[sealtheskies]

[hesitates again, briefly. but okay, he'll bite.]

I'm Sora, and I'm--er, I'm not... from here. Do you know what these things are for?

2/3

[alternateblue]

[That. Is unmistakeably Sora.]

[video]

[alternateblue]

Sora, I don't think you'll find Donald or Goofy here. [See this face on your screen Sora? It should look familiar. He gave a small, quiet smile, looking a bit worried rather than much else though.] I wondered when you would arrive too though.

[sealtheskies]

[........dfgklsdfg what.

cue Sora jumping back and almost dropping the SFC--it does slip out of his hands for a moment, but he manages to catch it at the last second.]

Roxas?! But how are you... Where are you? Are you okay?

[staring forever.]

[wakingwaters]

[There...are no words. Roxas just- Sora. And Kairi's older now too. Is it true? Is this that boy...?]

...Are you all right, Sora?

[video?]

[sealtheskies]

[blinks once, peering closely at her. she's--she's almost familiar, but he can't place it exactly. is it just a strange feeling?]

Yeah, I'm fine! I just really need to find my friends and... wait a minute. How do you know my name? [frowns, in thought.] Do I... know you?

[if she knows him, he has to know her, right?]

[video]

[wakingwaters]

[She just looks at him for a long time, before she finally smiles. Perhaps the gravity of what's going on is finally hitting her.]

Your friend Riku, right? I heard you met another girl named Kairi too.

[The smile softens.]

Do you remember me coming to your island when you were little? You two were racing...

[video]

[sealtheskies]

[initially, he only stares in confusion, but her gentle smile finally seems to get through, and recognition slowly dawns across his face.]

You're that girl... [his memory flickers for a moment, images overlapping each other, but he shakes his head to clear it and smiles brightly at her.] I remember now! You were on the bridge, and you came to talk to us... but I never saw you on the island again.

[--hold the phone.] Wait, how did you hear about Kairi? Is she here? And Riku?

[Voice ---> Video] c-c-combo breaker--I mean, sup

[guiltyguitar]

You know, you should treat her better. She's a fickle thing, that communicator.

[ Klavier laughs, and turns his video on. ] Not as fickle as a detective I know, but generally, perhaps if you're kind to her, she'll help.

Who are you looking for? Maybe I can help. Assuming they also ended up here, of course; no chance to find those people if they're not here, ja?

[video] aaaaa motherland--and you?

[sealtheskies]

[whoa, hi there. starts a little when the unfamiliar face suddenly pops up on his screen, though he relaxes slightly at the offer for help.]

I'm looking for my friends! They were with me just before I got here, so they can't be that far.

[pause. he's cautious, if only because he's not exactly used to the random people talking to him through a strange device thing yet. but you seem friendly enough, so hey.]

I'm Sora. Are you from around here?

[Video] Nothing, really. Just rocking :|b

[guiltyguitar]

[ He looks as though he's thinking, but his answer is almost instantaneous. ]

I doubt that, considering this place is far removed from anywhere any of us were before. Though it's unlikely, they might still be somewhere in this city if they took them as well as you from where you were before.

[ ... Yeah, right. Klavier just laughs. ] "From around here"...? Me? Ahaha! Not in the least.

[video]

[sealtheskies]

[suddenly, something clicks, and he seems to be frowning deeply in thought as he takes a moment to consider it. but soon enough, he brings his attention back to Klavier, sounding curious.]

So, the world you come from... you didn't happen to see it get destroyed before you got here, did you? Do you remember running into any weird creatures?

[wolvestigator]

Whoa there, pup, easy there. You're going to give everyone a headache with your yipping.

[video]

[sealtheskies]

[indignant look]

Hey! Watch who you're calling a dog!

[no offense, Pluto. or... Goofy, if that's what you are. eyes this guy skeptically.]

Who are you?

[video]

[wolvestigator]

Shi-Long Lang, from Interpol, and you're going to be a pup until you learn how to control your yipping, pup.

[video]

[sealtheskies]

[unimpressed frown 8(]

Look, I've got more important things to do than listen to this right now. So... unless you can tell me more about this place, you can go bug someone else!
