A lowdown of what's happened for my characters at New Sanctum. Hey, I'm bored and sick.
There was a special place, known as;
N E W . S A N C T U M.
Espo plays eight characters here from her lack of restraint. Here is just a basic lowdown on what's happened of importance for her kids.
Sora is the eldest and has been around for a good while, and fights to keep the Heartless population of the city down. His mother usually works away from home and he hardly ever sees her, and he hasn't seen his father for years.
Maya dubbed him the Keyblade Avenger, despite how Sora constantly goes against that name. He also tends to buy Maya food if she asks. He's a good fighter, and is on good terms with his nobody,
Roxas. Unlike Roxas, he has no idea that his nobody is him, as of yet. He's regained all his memories that
Naminé eroded, finally remembering Kairi. Lately, they finally got together. Sora was, at the time, on permanent Cloud 9. At Christmas time he was missing his best friend more than ever, who just happened to show up - that being
Riku. Now, the trio is reunited as they head into the new year.
The second child is Rikku. She lives with her brother, aptly named... well, Brother, and her dad, who she refers to as 'pop'. She's also the cousin of
Yuna. She's a full fledged mechanic and perhaps alchemist, fluent in Al Bhed and English. Rikku likes to make friends and hang out, and lives life to the full. She thinks that
Tidus is cool - he's the only person in Sanctum able to keep up with her. She quickly made friends with
Roxas, and despite their clashing personalities, the pair get on well. As much as to find Rikku eventually falling for the being without a heart. He rejected her because of it, which hit her hard, even if he did love her back. She's over it, now, but not over Roxas - they still do like one another, as evident when Rikku offered Roxas a place to stay. He even kissed her on the way there. Roxas eventually went home after several weeks, and Rikku went back to quietly making her way around. She met up with him again on New Years, though, just as the year changed off. Sweet? Yes.
And then comes the third, Kairi. Kairi's lived in New Sanctum her entire life, except for the time when she was stolen away for being a princess of heart. She lived quitely and by herself as a child, and Sora and Riku were her first true friends. Upon waiting for Sora, she encountered
Roxas, both promising to notify one another if they should meet the hero in question. Their relationship is a strange one - Roxas has avoided her, they've had arguements, she's even hit him once for being a jerk. Despite that, they're good friends, and Roxas trains Kairi in the art of the Keyblade. She also helped
Watanuki since as a Princess of Heart the spirits avoided her. She remembered Sora one fateful day during severe, strange rain, and looked for him ever since - and she did. Sora gave her a letter hinting towards liking her - and Kairi reciprocated. They are now officially a couple. Kairi's wasn't as far gone on Cloud 9 as Sora, though. She kept her sense. She's met several people in the run up to christmas, including
Fai who she could easily talk to. On Christmas Eve, she reunited with
Riku, and now the trio are back together again. Kairi is delighted at this.
Hermione was the child of whim, the fourth, taken on a purely random note. She is the only non FF/KH/CLAMP character I possess. She's a powerful witch, attending Hogwarts and being aware of a lot of what is going on around her. She likes reading, and seems to have a nack for making friends with guys. After a demon hunt with
Dante, she soon made a mental note to not buy him pizza, and that guys lived on their stomachs. Since, they've become friends of sorts. She is also 'friends' with
The Doctor, who knows a surprising amount about her world. She even went on a trip with him, once. She was distraught at the assasination of the president since she knew it was a wraith, but it made no sense to her. That was when she met
L. At the announcement from the government, she again, near went out of her mind and fled, and once again ran into L. During the Christmas period she kept to herself, mostly, but ran into Dante again and helped him out.
She was persuaded to take the fifth, the trouble causer Axel one time. Or at least try him out. Axel came crashing down with a bang on Rikku's doorstep looking for
Roxas. Once he did, they fought and argued - eventually, Roxas saw reason. After a complex amount of time of almost bleeding to death from a zombie attack and other such accounts, Axel ended up being invited to remain with Roxas in his house. Axel agreed, of course. Since, Roxas has made him dress in ordinary clothing and a variety of other things has happened. For one, he now shares the company of Roxas with Sakura, who, even if he denies it, he is growing more fond of her, her cooking, and her general well-being. Second, he declared his love for Roxas, and after several cases, Roxas ended up taking short-term leave at Rikku's house. During that time, he met
Balthier - a strange man that seemed similar to him in a respect. Roxas has now returned, and Axel has once again declared he will change. Axel knows well of the plot formed by DiZ, and has several permanent scars. One on his sides from the zombie attack, one on the back of his hand from a fight with Saix, and another on his back from Saix. Axel had a problem with his wielding of fire at one point, but it's not causing him a problem as of yet - he can still use it, though only slightly. During the Christmas period, Axel actually tried to be a nice guy and went out and bought presents for both Roxas and Sakura. He has changed slightly, but he is beginning to 'fear' the Organization in a sense. That they will come, wreak havoc and turn both him and Roxas into Dusks.
Sakura was taken as the sixth since I've always wanted to play her, and had good reason to do so with the events in Infinity. Upon arriving in Sanctum she met
Roxas. Roxas took pity on her and let her live with him, much to Axel's discontent. Sakura gently took her time and has opened up to them both, and her smile returns every now and then - she took to calling Roxas 'onii-san', and she also cares for Axel a lot. She knows about their circumstance, but she is not fearful of it - Syaoran has something similar. She has a job in a bakery in the city, and is praised for her work. She seeks advice from
Yuuko when she needs it. When Roxas temporarily left after an arguement, she was scared for him, but took it in good nature. Now, he has returned, and she is thankful for it. Yet, a new pathway appeared -
Kurogane, and then a few days later
Fai, arrived in New Sanctum. Sakura expressed her shock and surprise at their arrival, and seemed upset that Syaoran had not arrived with them. She met up with them once, giving Fai a hug to apologize for what she had done to him. As Christmas drew closer, she took more and more time to her room to make presents for Axel, Roxas, Fai, Kurogane, Yuuko and Syaoran.
Ashe is seventh member to the fold. She's of good knowledge of
Balthier, even if she detests him - maybe it's a love-hate thing? Hmm. She works a double life as a member of the Tatakai resistance and as a high ranking female. She briefly talked to Misato on one the return of one of her missions, and has conversed with Patchouli once or twice. Her birthday arrived in December, and her father insisted she celebrate it in someway. Reluctantly Ashe compromised, and willingly invited Balthier. As Christmas came, she even took to buying him a present. Ashe has had some change of heart as of late, yet she can't pinpoint it precisely, or shake the fear the she's betraying her late fiancée Rasler. We'll see how her relationship changes as she goes back to working for Tatakai for full time.
Yuuki is the latest. She is a good child who works on the disciplinary commitee at Cross Accademy, which also holds a secret - that the night class is full of vampires! She loves Kaname, and is good friends with Zero. She fell from the wall one night onto
Al, and regards him as a nice person she'd like to get to know more. We'll see how things go with her.
And that was the tale laid down, wherever it will lead. ♥
