Just have to catch my breath;

[For those of you who might recognize this woman, you will probably realize rather quickly that she isn't anything like the others. And if the casual outfit and lack of powers don't give the hint, maybe the little blond boy tugging excitedly at her wrist will. While he's blabbering on incoherently, she is just getting dragged along, looking confused, but overall amused.]

Whoa, whoa, Roxas. You're going to have to slow it down for me.

[Well, he's basically got a brother already.]

Yeah, we joke a lot about how he's such a mother hen. It's not such a bad thing though.

[notyourmommy.livejournal.com]

I can imagine.

[Her smile falters a bit, glancing at Riku.]

So... just how dangerous is it here?

[She saw scars on Roxas she's never seen before :<]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Sighs, frowning a little.]

Moreso than most places. Heartless and Nobodies aside, there are always people in here stirring up trouble, especially the sadists.

[notyourmommy.livejournal.com]

Heartless and nobodies?

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

A lot of universes don't have them apparently. Heartless are creatures born from the darkness in peoples' hearts; they prey on the hearts of everyone else. And Nobodies are a byproduct of when a strong willed person becomes a heartless.

[A pause.]

All you really need to know is that they're dangerous, and keeping your distance is the smart option.

[notyourmommy.livejournal.com]

[Nods once.]

I'll keep that in mind, thank you.

... so is your world like that, then?

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Mhmm. Before this place, my friends and I were trying to finish off the last of an evil organization made of thirteen Nobodies. But they have version here too- pretty much anyone you see around in a black coat.

[notyourmommy.livejournal.com]

Stay away from black coats. Got it.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

I'm sure Roxas can explain the rest of the details to you.

[Speaking of, shouldn't you two be having a nice long talk and some mother-son bonding time?]

[notyourmommy.livejournal.com]

[Hm. it has been a while. Maybe that's a bad sign.]

how did I miss this.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Maybe we should go make sure Calla didn't eat him.]

idk!

[notyourmommy.livejournal.com]

[No, Calla! Don't take after the Monty Python bunny! D:]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Roxas would probably give her indigestion anyway.]

...What's taking him so long?

[notyourmommy.livejournal.com]

[Or a tummy ache :< he's too sweet /what.]

I'm not sure...

[Looks worried, suddenly.]

Should we go check?

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Probably.

[Not going to mention how much of a trouble magnet he is just yet.]

[notyourmommy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, let's do that.

[Heads off back towards the room.]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Follows along. Please tell me you've at least managed to catch Calla by now, Roxas.]

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[.... looks like Calla caught him. Roxas is lying on the floor, face up, while Calla sits on top of him, paws on his cheeks and giving him 'bunny kisses' all over his face, which he is cracking up over and trying to avoid. Witness your BFF being a complete derp, Emoku :>]

C-Calla!

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[...You are such a dork.]

Dude. She's like an eighth of your size, how did she manage to catch you?

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[asdfgvbhn jumps like a foot in the air because ohgod someone saw that.]

Sh-Shut up! She's fast!

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Snorts.]

And heavy, apparently, with the way she was weighing you down like that.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[Shoots him a look, sitting up and bringing Calla with him, who happily curls up in his arms.]

Whatever, Skinny.

[Brb kicking your once-plastic leg.]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Well it ain't plastic anymore.]

Ow, jeez, what was that for?

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[... wait, that--?!]

HOW COULD YOU NOT TELL ME?!

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Not tell you what-- oh.]

Sorry, I was a little preoccupied with the whole 'dying and going home' thing. Next time I'll just visit you from beyond the grave, shall I?
