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

It's... actually more of a communicator, if anything. Welcome to Ruby City. May I assist you in any manner?

[Video]

[reclaimedearth]

Thanks. I'm starting to figure that out. [Hm. Polite enough, and he sounds a little more friendly.] I was told that I'm trapped here, and... something about people called 'the Interloper' and 'the Watcher'.

[lousygoodfriend]

Those are unfortunately the bits I'm not as knowledgeable of. But yes, it's at the hands of other individuals you were brought here. And we are trying to find a way out. Not me personally, perhaps, but indeed more capable individuals.

Try for complete sentences. They tend to be more effective.

[She speaks wearily from where she's rooted on the station overhang.]

[reclaimedearth]

[Looking up, blinking, and looking... well. Curious now.] ... you look far too advanced to be in a place like this.

[Light help you, he sounds vaguely amused.]

[potatolament]

That would be because I don't. I've been taken here, with no idea why or how. You, however, seem to fit in. Possibly human, brooding, average intelligence...

[She notes it. She doesn't like amusement at her sake.]

[reclaimedearth]

[That's a laugh. A soft one, and it's brief, but it's a laugh.] Average intelligence? You can tell that just by scanning? I'm impressed.

[Note the honesty--he's certainly impressed by something.] Do you have a name?

[ergaleomancer]

[[When he looks up, he'll see this person walking towards him. She's there to greet new arrivals, and help them settle in. She nods in greeting, and tips her hat to him. Her left leg is wooden, and thunks softly with each step.]]

Why? Because you were kidnapped. I can help you get oriented in this place and settled in with a roof over your head. My name is Elizabeθ Buckley...and you?

[Video > Action]

[asapphireheart]

[She knows that voice... But why is he wearing that cloak that Vexen, Marluxia and Axel wear?]

Terra..?

[She can sense him, but he feels... different. Well, guess who'll be making a trip to the station?

Her Wayfinder is hanging off her skirts when she enters and she jsut stops in her tracks, torn between hugging him, kissing him and just staring rudely.]

Terra, it is you! Why are you wearing that cloak?

[Action]

[reclaimedearth]

[He doesn't even get a chance to respond before the video feed is cut off, and... then there she is, running towards him. He knows that face, knows that voice. He can't help but offer a small smile to the oncoming figure.] ... hello, old friend.

[Past the cloak, he... likely feels fractured. Injured, the light and darkness barely staying together but still attempting to heal.

Head-tilt. Confusion. Hesitantly:] ... Terra?

[Action]

[asapphireheart]

[And that scares her, if only a little, that light and darkness. She hesitantly approaches him and pushes the hood down so she can get a better look at him.

It's also mostly to reassure herself that his hair is dark and not white.]

Yeah, Terra... You...

[Aqua frowns a little.]

[Action]

[reclaimedearth]

[His hair is, indeed, just as dark as it's supposed to be. There's also a distinct lack of any yellow in his eyes; only the familiar, if decidedly emptier shade of blue that he's always had.

And he looks... faintly confused. With a dash of 'worried'.] Is something wrong?

[Loaded question. Be careful.]
