[There's a click and the sound of buttons being pushed rather forcefully] Huh. That's weird. Something just turned on.

Hello? Can anybody hear me? [a pause] Well, it's not talking back. Maybe it's broken. [The sound of a few more buttons being pressed before there's a frustrated groan]

Well, if anyone can hear me out there, please talk to me through

[He doesn't recognize the voice, but the mention of a "tall guy with silver hair" sure catches his attention.]

Depends on who wants to know.

[fightswithkeys]

Sora- er, that is, my name's Sora. Who're you?

[His voice is a little more anxious now.] You've seen my friends?

[shinra_finest]

[Sora...? Never heard that name before.] That's too big of a Q&A, don't you think?

But because I'm such a nice guy-- Name's Reno.

And that depends. Who's that silver haired guy you are looking for?

[fightswithkeys]

[Weird. He sounded a little like Axel.] Not really... it's only two questions.

His name's Riku. His hair's about down to his shoulders, mostly covering his eyes, I guess. Have you seen him?

[shinra_finest]

Bold, for a start, you know?

[... Riku?

Not him. Or any of the others. Then again, one could never know, clones would be clones, and who knew how many there could be, right?] Can't say I have. What place do you come from?

[fightswithkeys]

Sorry, I'll stick with one next time.

[A disappointed sigh.] You sounded like you'd have seen him. I'm from Destiny Islands. Are you from here?

[shinra_finest]

Hey, it's cool. [Kid doesn't sound dangerous at all. But hey, never trusting!]

[The mention of Destiny Islands makes it a bit better though - Reno never heard of the place, but as long as it wasn't Gaia, it couldn't mean trouble to have silver hair, right?]

Nah, was thinkin' of someone else. Haven't heard a Riku around.

Place's name is Anatole-- And apparently, someone decided we needed some surprise vacation in here.

[fightswithkeys]

Oh. Do lots of people have silver hair around here?

So you're not from here either? [He sounded frustrated, thinking things over.] Who would've brought us here? And how?

1/2

[shinra_finest]

[... Maybe he should have let him stay with the "one question only" basis.]

[shinra_finest]

Here? Don't think so. [Hopefully not.]

-- Bingo. Honestly think that if I knew the answer to those two questions we would be having this conversation right now?

[fightswithkeys]

[Like he'd ever really stop with one question.] Alright. Then I guess it shouldn't be too hard to find Riku if he's here.

... I guess not. [A pause.] So where are you actually from?

[shinra_finest]

If he hasn't said anything yet, chances are he isn't, kid.

There you go. Gaia-- Rings any bells? Was in a place named Asper, before coming here, too.

[fightswithkeys]

... Oh.

Haven't visited either of them. Maybe they're really far away? Was it like this there?

[shinra_finest]

Sorry to break it out for you.

-- [And an eyebrow raise. Never visited...?]

What do you mean, "haven't visited"? -- Huh?

Nup, neither were.

[fightswithkeys]

It's okay. I guess it's a good thing, right? Then I don't have to worry about whether he's okay here, and I can just focus on getting back home.

Oh- er- I visited many other worlds before. Keeping the darkness out and generally fighting bad guys. I guess there are a lot of worlds out there I haven't been too.

[shinra_finest]

That's the best way to think, I guess, yeah.

[And his eyebrow raises more. Aliens.] And how do you do that?
