003 // Video // in which Sora has Integra on hold on the other line...

[ Filtered // from Integra ]

[The feed begins with a near-panicked Sora. Looks like he's in a real bind. He needs answers to some burning questions and he needs them fast!]

Hey guys! I need your help, quick!

How do I prove Santa exists?

Comments

[demonlordv]

[Wait. Wait wait! What?]

Why wouldn't Santa exist?!

[lockandkeyblade]

I dunno! Maybe somebody in Vatheon's going around telling everybody he's not real...

Kinda like how Riku told me didn't exist back home.

[demonlordv]

Why would someone do that? That's just mean! I just heard the fella and he seems like a really nice guy, too.

Is someone trying to ruin Christmases forever?

[Head-tilt]

Who's Riku?

[lockandkeyblade]

Maybe...

On some worlds, some people don't have Santa. But that doesn't mean they should go around telling other people he's not real.

Riku's my best friend. When we were little, he told me Santa wasn't real.

[demonlordv]

Umm... your friend seems kind of mean. Why would he tell you that a guy with presents and likes cookies and milk doesn't exist? I sure wish we had him where I come from!

Then again, maybe Santa just doesn't visit demon lords. Huh...

[lockandkeyblade]

Oh Riku's a really good guy. We were just kids then and sometimes it's tough to tell whats real or made up when you're that little.

... Why wouldn't he visit a demon lord? I don't see why not.

[demonlordv]

I guess that's true...

Uhhh... I think there was something about a naughty and nice list. Demon Lords are always supposed to be mean and evil, so Santa probably doesn't visit.

[lockandkeyblade]

... Always?

[He totally remembers that week when he turned into a kid.]

I dunno, Raenef. For a Demon Lord, you sure make a swell good guy.

[Last Sora checked, heroes and their sidekicks usually made the good lists.]

[demonlordv]

Thanks!

[Wait, what?

If only Raenef knew that 2+2 = Sora grew up! But alas, he was never good at anything involving his brain math. :| ]]

Hey kid! ...how do you know my name? Did you guess or something? Hey wait, I know. You can read minds, right?

ACTUALLY MUN IS FORGETFUL. orz

[lockandkeyblade]

Nah. I wish I was psychic. It would make things a lot easier.

But actually you mentioned a guy named Eclipse, right? He said your name once. I figured 'Master Raenef' must've been you. Unless he's got more than one student?

PFFFT <33333

[demonlordv]

No I'm his only student! And it might be easier for him? He reads my mind once in a while to, uh... remind me what I'm supposed to be doing... as a demon lord.

[He pouts momentarily... but he turns back on like a lightbulb again]

So what's your name, fella?

[lockandkeyblade]

I'm Sora.

He reads your mind!? [He swallows.] What about mine? Could he read mine too?

[demonlordv]

Hi Sora! Nice to meet you!

[He's beaming]

And uh... yeah, I guess he could! It's just his voice though. He just tells you stuff to do or else you'll look silly in front of the demon gods.

[Nod nod, it's totally true!]

[lockandkeyblade]

Demon gods? Being a demon lord sure sounds like a lot of work.

[demonlordv]

The demon gods are just really old fellas. [He waves them off with his hand]

And it is! But it's fun sometimes as well. And it's better than being in the thief guild. You can get food for free!

[lockandkeyblade]

Fun, huh? What kinda stuff do you get to do as a demon lord?
