[A young man with aristocratic-looking features, smirking green eyes and a curious scar running from his brow to the bridge of his nose is gazing into the crystal. He seems both amused and intrigued by the device. His appearance looks a little run-down: he's draped in a tattered white trenchcoat, a few faint rust-coloured smears visible on his chin ( Read more... )

[Usually Hope has the decency and the actual wits about him to filter his post on the crystal, but this time it's not happening. His voice comes on and it's clearly strained, as if he's hurting beyond words.]

I haven't seen Light since before the battle.

[There's a pause, like he's choosing what to say next, his breathing uneasy and staggered. ( Read more... )

[It's... been a few days. Kain hates this feeling of dread. This isn't like his dragon friend to disappear.]

Tooth? Where are you? Answer me?

...I'll have fish for you when you return here... all right?

[He suddenly looks distressed, and that's followed by a creepy look that means that even more is going wrong in Kain's mind and darkness is ( Read more... )

[This is Jihl. Jihl isn't pleased. When Jihl isn't pleased and things don't go according to plan... well, let's not go there.]

I already have my own war to wage. I do not need to be dragged into something such as this.

[The image is grainy, partially obscured by thin strands of white - hair, one can tell if they look close enough. Nearby is a hand, limp on the floor, small and almost feminine - more delicate than the one that picks up the crystal.]

Damn.[There's a view of a body, the hair attached to it though little clothing is, for about half a second before ( Read more... )

[filtered to Cosmos]

[Anyone who knows Hope knows the kid isn't one to be angered easily. He'll argue and stand firm, he'll yell if he's frustrated, but it takes a lot for him to get this pissed off. Which means this is pretty damn serious to him.]I don't know how many of you have talked to him yet, but- the new guy, who said he knew people were ( Read more... )

Do not mistake me for a fool. I can feel your presence nearby--

Come out, come out wherever you are.

[Fang is standing in Ultimecia's Castle, spear in hand, poised on the edge of the upper balcony and watching the gears turn down below. This place is surreal... She doesn't know what to make of it, really, and that makes her nervous. Not that she'd show that, though.]

...Time. [Her voice can be heard, but barely. It's debatable whether she meant ( Read more... )

Snow?

If you're out there somewhere, this isn't funny.

[Snow seems to have disappeared. Completely. Lightning is not amused.]

[You'll hear an almost pained gasp, and the crystal clatters across the floor. It comes to a rest facing off to the side, and just in view in the corner you'll see a woman. She's crouched, with one hand on the ground and one near the top of her chest. She's gasping for breath (though it gradually slows), and she looks somewhat horrified, though ( Read more... )
