[what started out as a day spent very warily heading out to as many ends of the barrier as possible to get a better look at what's looming in the sky above them all-- despite the weather-- has abruptly ended upon the discovery of a mask that looks exactly like a certain housemate ( Read more... )

[ It would be nice if, at some point, things would stop going wrong.

After the past two days - spent "killing" her friends and a few strangers (and one stupid black haired boy), then finding and apologizing to all of those people (except the stupid black haired boy), Xion's found herself exhausted, still. The forgiveness she received was, for the most part, unconditional, and she was grateful for it. But she's worn out just the same.

Seeking solace, hiding out in her room and trying to keep away from any and all further masks she might run across, Xion happens to glance at the journal to hear this broadcast.

And she quickly drops it as if the book has burned her.

Unspeakable, cold horror fills every inch of her. This ... this can't be ... who would -- a mask? On who? Who was that? How did-- whoever that really is, why do they look like her when she was dying? ]

Who.... [ Her voice shakes. ] Who are you?

[by the looks of things, and Sora's-- though limited compared to Xion's-- experience with Luceti, no, things will never stop going wrong.]

[the voice that replies to her is identical, if not in inflection. Sora sounds both defeated and horrified that Xion can see him.]

[there's an apologetic note tucked at the last syllable, too.]

I'm Sora.

[unfortunately, there's very little that would make this more ironic.]

[ Xion lifts a shaking hand to her mouth. It was silly, really -- to think she couldn't be any more horrified by finding out who that really was. Of course ... of course, of all people, it would be Sora.

The sight, sound, idea of it makes her feel physically ill. What would have happened if you'd died instead of me? What would I have done to you? To everyone?

She is a monster. A hideous monster. And now Sora is stuck looking like...

... like a monster. ]

Sora .... [ Her voice is pale and weak. ] I ... I never ... I never wanted you to, to have to... [ Know. See this. ] I ....

... where ... are you?

[he mumbles something akin to a protest, no, don't, please don't, he's so stupid; why couldn't he have just taken the mask home like he'd meant to, and never spared it a second thought--]

[silence. Sora almost doesn't want to tell her where he is, like staying apart would somehow settle both of their emotions. he... gives in eventually, though.]

I'm by the plaza. [it's just barely something more than his earlier mumbling.]

[voice] gardenerofgaia October 28 2011, 04:28:22 UTC

Mm...That sounds pretty strange, Xion. What would happen if it was destroyed?

[voice] soracles November 24 2011, 02:43:48 UTC

I'm not Xion. [his answer is getting automatic now, even if there's a layer of irony underneath it all.]

I'd rather not find out what would happen if it was destroyed.

[voice] gardenerofgaia November 28 2011, 01:22:00 UTC

--oh! How am I supposed to know you're wearing a silly mask thing! You could say. So who are you then?

[voice] soracles December 11 2011, 00:09:11 UTC

Sora. It's Sora.

Xion!

[ Hey Sora, hope you don't mind being run over to and pulled into a hug before you can protest by a certain Couple's Mask-induced replica because that is probably what is about to happen right now. THIS IS GOING TO BE THE MOST AWKWARD THING EVER HI ]

soracles November 24 2011, 02:44:37 UTC

[THIS IS SEVEN THOUSAND LAYERS OF AWKWARD. so much so that Sora doesn't really do much but flail helplessly at first.]

Uh-- I'm not--

personafalsify November 24 2011, 04:24:24 UTC

[ YEAH SORRY ABOUT THAT DUDE. Well he's not sorry about the hugging but he will be once he realizes this isn't Xion. BUT FOR NOW. ]

What's... what's going on? What is this stuff? [ The crystal, he means. ]

soracles November 24 2011, 04:37:22 UTC

It's-- I don't know, I found a mask on my way home, and then this happened.

[moreso the turning into Xion than the crystals, though he still hitches and tenses with each chnk noise, each time more crystals form.]
