[The feed crackles into existence, and on the screen is a young man. He sits back, communicator resting on the hard surface before him. He seems quite calm and relaxed, and perhaps a bit weary.]Good day, my fellow students and teachers. It is a pleasure to meet all of you, I suppose. I've just arrived after a long journey, and shall spare you the ( Read more... )

[The voice is like a knife in the back.

Granted, it's entirely possible that that's due to the fact that he isn't facing the comm when the video comes in.

Either way, for a second, the air compresses around him as he flinches. The gravity magic fused to his heart draws everything inwards as his mind reels, struggling to sort out information his brain apparently can't access.

It's only when a paintbrush clatters on to the floor of the empty Art Building room and starts rolling towards him that things become clear again. His body moves without any distinct purpose - he reaches out for the communicator and presses a button, accepting the feed but switching his end to audio.]

Huh.

So.

What should we be calling you?

Xemnas?

[video/private] turntodarkness December 22 2010, 21:21:34 UTC

[Oh. He knows that voice quite well. One of those who followed him in the experiments on the heart. The smugness is not in his voice when he does respond. No, this makes getting away with things much harder. He doesn't know what to do with this.]

I go by Ansem now, Braig. Nothing more. A... A nod to our former teacher. What of you? Do you still answer to Xigbar?

[audio/private] tesseractrigger December 22 2010, 21:29:14 UTC

[His voice is flat.]

Xigbar. Only Xigbar. Braig is dead.

[video/private] turntodarkness December 22 2010, 21:33:40 UTC

Xigbar, then. Would you be so kind as to inform me of something?

[It's his priority, of course, to find his family.]

[audio/private] tesseractrigger December 22 2010, 21:42:15 UTC

[...huh, okay then. Change in the course here. His voice carries the slightest note of suspicion.]

Depends on what it is I'm informing you of.

[video/private] turntodarkness December 22 2010, 22:46:40 UTC

Is there anyone here by the name of Terra or Eraqus?

[His voice is low, serious. He's not in the mood for games.]

[audio/private] tesseractrigger December 23 2010, 00:37:01 UTC

[Too bad. Xigbar's nearly always in the mood for a game or two.

He hums tunelessly for a bit, and when he speaks again there's a distinct playfulness to his voice.] Maaaaybe. It's possible.

[video/private] turntodarkness December 23 2010, 01:20:53 UTC

[This is not the time, Xigbar. He's entirely serious. This is his family.]

I wonder, Xigbar. Does the school know the details of the experiments we performed...? The countless lives we ended?

[audio/private] tesseractrigger December 23 2010, 04:49:58 UTC

[He glares, though he knows... 'Ansem' can't see him. How just like him to just throw that around. All those lives ended and it is just leverage.

Fine. He wants leverage, he'll get it, but not without a little bit more of a struggle.]

Where's the fire, Norty? Who're these two people to you?

[Video/private] turntodarkness December 23 2010, 04:59:34 UTC

[Fire. Ansem tenses visibly at this, because Xigbar knows how much he despises fire.]

They are my brother and my godfather. Does that answer you question, Braig?

[audio/private] tesseractrigger December 23 2010, 05:07:21 UTC

[Xigbar hums again, keeping his thoughts on this revelation to himself.]

Ah. Nope. Haven't heard of either of them showing up.

[video/private] turntodarkness December 23 2010, 05:10:14 UTC

You will tell me if they do, correct?

[There's a distinct threat in his voice. And given his lack of morals...]

[audio/private] tesseractrigger December 23 2010, 05:30:52 UTC

[Hmm. To agree or disagree? Either way, he'll be highly intrigued as to how this turns out.

There's a lengthy pause, mostly for effect.] Sure.

[video/private] NOTIFS WHY DO YOU NOT WORK!? turntodarkness December 25 2010, 23:26:41 UTC

[He hadn't expected it to be that easy. No, really, he hadn't. So there's a bit of suspicion.]

Thank you, then, Xigbar. I... Look forward to hearing from you.

[audio/private] Maybe they were giving you a Christmas break! :D No? You guys? tesseractrigger December 26 2010, 00:40:07 UTC

[There is a chuckle, low and mischievous.]

Oh, I'm sure you will, Norty.

[He disconnects the line, and it's only then that he realizes his heart is beating so quickly.

He doesn't quite know what to make of this. Was he freaked out? Oh, hell yeah. Zexion and now Xemnas, this quickly?

But Xigbar's mind has always reacted to fear strangely. He almost welcomes it.

He laughs in the empty room.

He does so love to get his fingers burnt.]
