1st Shard ★ [Audio ->Video]

[reclaimedearth]

[The audio feed turns on first, and the sound of someone thoughtfully going 'hmmm' is heard.] I didn't have this on the train...

[Then the video feed turns on as the watch is opened. A figure can be seen looking down at the watch, the lower-half of his face covered in the shadow cast by the leather hood drawn low over his face. A slight movement

[New recruit? Marluxia doesn't recognize the bottom half of this guy's face.]

Forces beyond our understanding have brought you here, the purpose yet to be determined.

[video?]

[reclaimedearth]

[Not quite? It's confusing, most of all to him.] ... hm. I see.

I'm... sorry, but... you are? [There's a slight nagging thought of 'gee, this person looks familiar' at the back of his mind, but nothing he can't ignore with ease.]

[video]

[petalsofdeath]

[He doesn't see any reason to hide himself. He's pretty sure he can defeat most of the other members.]

I am called Marluxia. May I have your acquaintance as well?

[video]

[reclaimedearth]

[A pause, and... he sounds uncertain when he speaks up.] It's ...

[A head-shake. Definitely sounds uncertain, and apologetic.] I don't remember. Sorry.

video | private; ... I foresee this icon being spammed.

[limitless_land]

[He just... stares at the feed; dumbfounded. Didn't he just mention-?]

[A hood, which made him think of the Organization--and the form and stance pinged him as Xemnas. The voice, however, seemed like a more empty version of another's that tugged at his own heart all the more. ... Okay, yeah. Going to be heading to the station for a second time today now, and clicking on the feed at a private setting.]

...Terra? [And, quieter:] Or Xehanort? [But then... Xehanort had white hair; like his own. He is very confused by this, and his pace is slowed as he thinks about it.]

video | private; It's a rather lovely icon, though.

[reclaimedearth]

[Frown. Puzzled frown, primarily.] ... who?

[Both of those names strike a cord with him, though on completely different levels.] ... I'm not sure. Terra, I think. It...

[A pause, before he continues.] It feels right.

video | private; It's also his guarded sadface. >:

[limitless_land]

..."Feels"? [He notices the puzzled frown, and linefaces in return. Terra... What happened to you? He actually stops in his tracks a second, before walking again. This time, the station's in view.]

What's... the last thing you remember?

video | private; ;~; Keydaddy is sorry, son.

[reclaimedearth]

[A nod.] I can't really explain it. The other name, it feels... wrong.

[Hm. Good question. Thinking, thinking... there's a hand going to his forehead, and his voice sounds slightly pained and worried.] ... the train.

video;

[reclaimedearth]

[... that's a voice he knows. That's a face he knows. If only he could pin a name to it--] ...you're the second person that's called me that.

[He now sounds faintly amused, and there's the hint of a familiar smile under that hood.]

video;

[reclaimedearth]

I guess it must be. [Still sounds somewhat amused.] This is going to sound bad, but... I can't remember yours.

[Definitely sounding sad now, and apologetic.]

[ Video // private ] :B JACKPOT. You and I need to plot, srsly srsly.

[glacialis_nemo]

I've encrypted the feed to better ensure privacy. Lower your hood so I can see you. [ His voice was firm and authoritative, but there was a dark wile, his voice subtly drawling with curiosity.

That voice. It was familiar, but until Vexen could see his face... ]

[ Video // private ] We totally should. 1/2

[reclaimedearth]

Hm? [Another nagging feeling of familiarity. This one a bit moreso than the one with the pinkish brown hair] Oh. Um... all right.

[He lowers the hood--]

[ Video // private ] 2/2

[reclaimedearth]

[Well. Hope you find what you're expecting, because he just looks subtly curious.]

[ Video // private ] Hit me up on AIM? gamblingxdesires, bb. Also edited for grammar fail.

[glacialis_nemo]

[ Brows raise briefly before he inspects the face with eyes narrow and critical. The hair style and facial structure was similar to the Xehanort he knew, though...the face was more youthful, if only because he still looked slightly boyish and his hair had color. ]

You look young, but you favor a fellow apprentice, Xehanort. Does the name Ansem The Wise sound familiar? [ How long had the amnesiac Xehanort been traveling alone? ]

voice | private;

[vain_sky]

[Oh, fuck you Watcher and Interloper. As if being nearly trampled by two carnivorous dinosaurs last week weren't enough, you had to bring the emo rock-head too--]

[Wait, was that confusion in his tone? He pauses before even replying, listening to the other responses...]

[This could be rather interesting. Don't mind the faint chuckle-induced wince.] The Watcher and Interloper must just enjoy toying with those from our worlds.

voice | private;

[reclaimedearth]

[? No video this time? That's fine with him.] The Watcher and Interloper?

[Not a single hint of recognition in his voice. Just curiosity.] ... you said 'our worlds'. Are you from the same place I am?

voice | private;

[vain_sky]

[It's because he's injured as hell. Too prideful to show that much.] The two main hosts who watch over the city. Didn't the others tell you?

[As for the second question, well... The smirk must be evident in his voice. Hm.] Yes and no. The coat is familiar... as is the voice behind it. That, and I'm an... acquaintance of the blond you spoke to.

voice | private;

[reclaimedearth]

Not yet.

[It's... very evident. It puts him a little on edge, for some reason. Filing away that reply for review.] Then... you know me.

[A beat.] And... you know Ven?
