Look who is finally emerging

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

[Here is a Ri. He is quite thoroughly washing his hands and arms in a bathroom sink, and probably has been for quite some time, if the empty soap bottle is anything to go by. Why don't you make some small talk with him to get his mind off things? Or you can just tell him you want in on the revenge action.]

Do people really get so dirty here? It's looked pretty clean so far.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*looks up from his washing*

Uh? Oh... no. Not unless you're a kid, I guess. I just happened to get my hands dirty.

[fealtytoher.livejournal.com]

What with, may I ask?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*lolz like he'll blurt it out*

Just stuff. I've been busy all day. And it's a good idea to wash your hands before you eat.

[fealtytoher.livejournal.com]

True - proper cleanliness was not something I saw enough of prior to arriving here.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Oh? Where are you from then? You seem new to this place. I can tell.

[fealtytoher.livejournal.com]

I am new - less than a day, in fact. As to where I'm from, originally the kingdom of Dralivear, but I was... taken, I suppose, from the town of Iravis.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*whistles a bit at that*

Really new then. Have you gotten the usual warnings and stuff? I already know you're probably a Roxas. My name is Ri. I'm from... Destiny Islands, by way of Castle Oblivion, I guess.

[fealtytoher.livejournal.com]

[Well then you can have a bow.]

I am Roxas Lythall, palace guard of the royal family of Dralivear. It is a pleasure to meet you, Ri of Destiny Islands. And I have heard that there can be... unsavoury people around.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*he's very impressed by the fact that you have manners!*

Wow, that sounds pretty fancy. And yeah, there's... really terrible people here. But there's good people, too. I'm the guy who looks after the kids.

[fealtytoher.livejournal.com]

[Palave guards have to have them, otherwise they are no longer palace guards.]

Not particulary - although I don't know that I really hold even that title anymore.

[Smiles.] A noble endeavour if ever there was one.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Eh? Why not? Because you got stuck here?

Screw you and the horse you rode in on, spelling. Palave =/= Palace

[fealtytoher.livejournal.com]

No, I... Princess Namine sort of... left the palace without the royal family's knowledge, and I accompanied her.

I wondered about that XD

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Oh... on the run then?

My spelling's been weird ever since I started with him

[fealtytoher.livejournal.com]

Pretty much. It's a complicated story. I don't even know that I understand all of it.

maybe it's a sign

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

So is being stuck here a good or bad thing?

Ergh I hope not

[fealtytoher.livejournal.com]

That depends on what is happening back in my world.

lolz

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Well, if it makes you feel better, they say time stops on your world while you're here.

*crosses fingers*

[fealtytoher.livejournal.com]

Oh? In case you return to it?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*nods*

Some people manage to go home, but get pulled back here again. Lots of them have said it was like they returned to the exact moment they left.

[fealtytoher.livejournal.com]

That would be preferable to going back and the people you know having moved on.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, though it would be strange. I mean, I've been here over a year now. I dunno how much older I look. There are people who've been stuck fifteen years.

[fealtytoher.livejournal.com]

Fifteen? That's... I'm not sure exactly what it is, but I'd rather not stay here that long.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Well, it's not by choice obviously.

[fealtytoher.livejournal.com]

Of course. I just hope... if they do come here, that I can find them quickly.
