[He's covering it up well, but if you're paying attention you may notice that Satoshi sounds a little worn.]

I've heard that some residents have been here for at least a year. Out of curiosity, does anyone know who has been here the longest?

Also, I am in need of a weapon for self-defense against the monsters. If anyone knows wh- where...

Well...there's a few here who've been longer than me. I've been here a little over a year and half now.

Kadaj, Roxas, Harry Mason, Rinoa...that singing girl Linda. They were all here before I was. Harry, Rinoa and Linda have gone away and come back.

about an hour later blah blah

[hikari_prodigy]

I see. In that time, you've never once made it back to your world?

Re: about an hour later blah blah

[not_riku_thx]

I don't exactly have any real world to go back to.

...Others have come and gone but lost all memories of this place. Namine, Sora, Kairi and Riku...it's happened to all of them.

[hikari_prodigy]

Then... you would prefer to stay here?

Hm.

[not_riku_thx]

Maybe not forever here in Discedo, I'd like to see what's left of the rest of Fortuna someday, or maybe go see other worlds if there's ways of going between them and coming back again, but...

This is my home. For now. My first real home.

[hikari_prodigy]

This isn't much of a home, but to each their own, I suppose.

[not_riku_thx]

My building on Gohl is enough of a home for me. It's real, and its mine. And I keep it safe for my friends.

[hikari_prodigy]

How long do you think that will last?

[not_riku_thx]

It's lasted almost a year and a half, just fine. Through lots of bad things happening in the city.

[hikari_prodigy]

You've lost nothing in that time?

[not_riku_thx]

We've lost friends from the usual, the scientists taking people away, leaving us with new ones. Our roof fell in once and we lost a flight of stairs, but we've patched the roof, and we use a net ladder between the first and second floor now.

Compared to Oblivion, where I was made, it's a home.

[hikari_prodigy]

I see.

"Made." You're not human?

[not_riku_thx]

I'm still human!

I'm a human replica. I was made as a copy of someone.

[hikari_prodigy]

So you're a clone. How peculiar.

[not_riku_thx]

What's so peculiar about it?

[hikari_prodigy]

The other worlds that the people here have come from are very different from my own, as far as I can tell.
