how's that for a re-entrance?

[proudmage.livejournal.com]

[there's a large swell of magic in one of the bigger areas, and for a moment there's something like ghosts, faint and blue, throughout it. there are literally dozens, and they all seem frozen in time and place, dressed in heavy armor- it looks like an army. in the middle is a woman that may look faintly familiar; it's an adult Kairi, dressed in white and purple robes. she's got a look of intense concentration on her face and magic surrounding her hands. after a minute, the army of ghosts flickers out... and she becomes solid.]

This isn't Stormwind-- oh fel not this place again!

[That was... an odd sight, to say the least. Roxas wasn't expecting to see a random army of ghosts in the middle of the room. Once the center figure becomes solid and the ghosts disappear, he blinks in recognition. It's the Kairi that grew his fingers back.]

What was all that?

[proudmage.livejournal.com]

[it's been a year for her, so it takes her a moment to recognize the boy, but she smiles faintly and wipes some sweat from her forehead.]

Keeping the king from making a big mistake. I went home.

[destati-13.livejournal.com]

[Understandable. Roxas would have no clue who she was if it wasn't for the outfit, and the fact she's not a teenage.]

Oh, that's good, that you managed to get home for a while... Was everything okay there?

[proudmage.livejournal.com]

[oh goodness that was a rather bitter laugh for a Kairi.]

No time had passed. It was peaceful. Ish. Kind of. For a little while.

[destati-13.livejournal.com]

Well, at least no time had passed and things didn't get out of hand while you were gone... Seems like peace never lasts very long.

[proudmage.livejournal.com]

So long as people refuse to get along, peace will never last. It's unfortunate, but true.

I gots to sleep. Will tag back later. <3

[destati-13.livejournal.com]

[frowns a little at that]

Yeah... people don't get along very well with each other... Not here, or anywhere else.

Alrighty.

[proudmage.livejournal.com]

And yet it's so difficult for people to appreciate the good things they have.

[sighs softly, shaking her head.]

But anyways, how have things been here?

[destati-13.livejournal.com]

People tend to focus on what's bad... not good...

[shrugs] Aside from that spell a week or so ago, no different than normal.

[proudmage.livejournal.com]

Indeed.

[blinks, straightening slightly.]

What spell?

[destati-13.livejournal.com]

[rubs the back of his neck]

From what I heard, it made everyone's worse fears happen... Or something like that.

[proudmage.livejournal.com]

[brings a gloved hand to her face, rubbing her forehead.]

Unbelievable. A year back home and it's only been a week here.

[destati-13.livejournal.com]

[binks] Were you here when that happened?

[proudmage.livejournal.com]

I was. I got turned into a Forsaken; one of the undead. I suppose my greatest fear is being affected by the plague that ravaged my homeland.

[destati-13.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm sorry... At least it wasn't permanent.

[proudmage.livejournal.com]

[smiles faintly.]

When are these spells ever permanent? I suppose that's the only reason I didn't worry too much.

[destati-13.livejournal.com]

Yeah... It still must have been scary though. Suddenly waking up like to be undead.

[proudmage.livejournal.com]

It was quite frightening from what I remember... but that was the point of the spell, really.

[destati-13.livejournal.com]

Good point...

Well... How was the time you spent at home?

[proudmage.livejournal.com]

[that brings a bright smile to her face.]

As tiring as it was, it was good to be back. Though I think I frightened a few people when I hugged them out of the blue.

[laughs quietly.]

[destati-13.livejournal.com]

Heh, yeah, I'm sure they were confused, if no time had passed for them.

[small smile]

[proudmage.livejournal.com]

It was pretty amusing.

[...oh ew. there's green slime of some sort on the bottom of her robes and boots.]

[destati-13.livejournal.com]

[blinks, glancing down at the green slime]

What's that stuff?

[prelichking.livejournal.com]

(oh hey 'sup)

...you went back, Kairi?

[proudmage.livejournal.com]

[she'd forgotten he was here and tenses for a moment.]

...yeah.
