25 days

[cardbreaking.livejournal.com]

[a set of double doors suddenly swing open early this morning - she never really had a proper sense of day and night in the castle - and a girl Sora wanders through, expression switching from slightly worried, to shocked, to bewildered.]

Whoa... Naminé?

[it's been 25 days since she picked a fight and lost to Axel, and subsequently woke up back home - 25 days to go about her business, and to be properly and completely broken.]

[Pauses, then nods softly.]

My name?

[cardbreaking.livejournal.com]

Yeah.

[well, if the poke seemed to have helped, Sora will just take Riku's arm.]

I .. I do know you... I just can't remember..

[dawnrise]

[Nods again, letting her do that.]

You will. There should be a Naminé here that can help you.

[cardbreaking.livejournal.com]

Will you help me until I find one?

[dawnrise]

Yeah. Don't worry.

[Gives her a smile. But, wait...]

Do you know anything about this place?

[cardbreaking.livejournal.com]

[glances around.]

Yeah. I'm pretty sure I've been here before.

[dawnrise]

Good.

[That helps a lot.]

[cardbreaking.livejournal.com]

[smiles, and pulls her hand back.]

What now, then?

[dawnrise]

I guess we should find a Naminé, and see what she can tell us.

[Like how long it would take to fix, and if it's even possible here.]

[cardbreaking.livejournal.com]

Okay.

[wandering along will solve half of the equation, anyway -- Sora opens a random door out of curiosity, revealing a large white room with a certain pod in the middle.]

[dawnrise]

[That's... kind of awful for Riku to see after so long, but at least now she knows where to find one if they're successful in locating a Naminé.]

Sora?

[cardbreaking.livejournal.com]

Yeah?

[smiles up at her!]

[dawnrise]

... Nevermind.

[Smiles back.]

[cardbreaking.livejournal.com]

Huh? Wait, what is it?

[dawnrise]

It's nothing. We should keep looking.

[Sora has the odd feeling it's not just 'nothing,' but she's not sure if she should pursue it ... subject change!]

What's your world like, ah ..

[asking for her name is probably a good idea, too!]

[dawnrise]

[Stares at her for a long moment, and a slightly sad smile flits across her face before she speaks.]

My world?

[cardbreaking.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Is it nice?

[smiles back, although hers is a cheerful one.]

[dawnrise]

...yeah. It's alright.

[Keeping her eyes focused in front of her.]

[cardbreaking.livejournal.com]

Well, don't just stop there! Tell me about it.

[dawnrise]

What should I tell?

[cardbreaking.livejournal.com]

Anything! What's your favorite thing about your world?
