❧ first key

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Have a confused and a bit worried Sora, and if it isn't obvious already, he's new here. He seems a lot younger than most of the other normal Sora's, but he does have the keyblade.

Thing is, he's looking for someone -- ]

Mickey! Are you there?

[Help him?]

(OOC: Have a Data!Sora from coded, just a little before meeting Pete but after Mickey and the others get sucked into the data world by Data!Riku. He also knows that Data!Riku is Jiminy's journal, and well. The fact that he's not real. Have at it!)

[Tiny Soraaaa... Riku doesn't realize you're digital, so pardon him just chillin' over here with a smirk.]

Need some help, Sora?

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[He's so tiny, he's only less than a day old! But he has Sora's memories. But he also knows that you're not Data!Riku, because you're wearing Riku's normal outfit.]

Riku?! ....you're really Riku?

[Wait a minute, the real Riku's supposed to be older, that makes no sense. Did Data!Riku take off the Organization outfit, then?]

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

No, I'm Axel.

[Tsk, tsk. He rolls his eyes a little, but at least he looks amused.]

C'mon, Sora. Who else would it be?

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Axel? He doesn't recognize that name, so this might be his Riku? Sora's totally confused, oh god, please don't do this to him -- ]

If you're really Riku, prove it! [Because the Data World is kind of crazy?]

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

Heh. Piece of cake.

[Well, he doesn't have crazy darkness hax or the Soul Eater, buuuut...]

I challenged you to a race, and the winner was going to share a paopu with Kairi.

[... Because that's totally an awkward subject for Soras, shh.]

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Now he's spazzing out, thanks a lot Riku! You're definitely not the Data Riku, because he's too serious for his own good. Which is very disappointing.]

W-what?! [Riku, why you evil-]

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

[BRB LOLING. Riku just loves to pick on his bff, and he doesn't know the difference still.]

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Success in not pretending to be being Sora! Does he get a trophy? No? Guess not.]

Riku! You didn't have to say that!

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

Nah, I'd say I did.

[Oh, he's just grinning.]

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[DDDD: Riku, I thought you loved me?]

Hey, Riku, do you know what this place is?

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

[It's his own special kind of Riku-love. Juuust ask his Kairi.]

I do, but I don't know... Why spoil the surprise?

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Because he needs to get back to the Data World! Everyone's counting on him to save everyone! Too bad, that Sora can't understand your love, Riku.]

I need to go back to Disney Castle, Riku. It's real important!

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

[Disney Castle? Well, that's new... huh. Riku just shrugs, frowning just a bit. He can totes be serious, too.]

That's just it, Sora. There isn't a way out of here.

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[But you're not that serious. Sora kind of frowns and sighs in disbelief. Mickey and the others must be in danger from Pete -- or something.]

So we can't get out? Why not?

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

[That's because he's early!KH1!Riku...with seven months of character development from his game. And now I'm tempted to dust off my Pete journal, fff.]

Because this place won't let us. Some people manage to get out, but it's usually only temporary.

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Oh god, if Sora sees Pete, he'll have to beat him up. 8(b]

That doesn't make any sense! How can a place just keep us here?

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

Who knows? Maybe it's magic.

[That sounded so lame.]

But even those dark corridors are useless.

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[But magic's awesome and weird and....lots of things!]

I never thought magic worked like that! ...dark corridors?

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

Hey, don't ask me. I've been here a while, but I think even people who practically live here don't know everything about it.

[Aaand...shrug.]

Those portals the Heartless and Nobodies make.

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Hm. That sounds a bit familiar except not really. Heartless he knows about, but Nobodies]

Riku, what're Nobodies?

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

They're people without hearts, basically.

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[People without hearts? Well, Data Sora technically doesn't have a heart, but he has feelings. Does that count?]

People without hearts, huh...? Does this mean they don't feel?

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

That's what I've heard, anyway. Apparently all they've got is their memories of feelings.

[Well...Data Sora is data. So maybe he's different.]

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Oh, I see. Have a somewhat sad face.]

....just memories? [Translation: Does this mean I'm a Nobody too?]

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

[... Why so sad? D: Riku clearly doesn't realize he's talking to a digital Sora.]

Like I said, that's just what I've heard.

[...]

Something up?

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[This is why you don't tell a digital Sora about Nobodies. You make him all angst and wondering about things. But he doesn't want you worrying about him, Riku!]

It's nothing, Riku!

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

[If he's angsting, then he's not a Nobody in Riku's book. Either way, he'll give Sora a little shoulder-shove.]

Sure didn't look like nothing.

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Awesome! But bwaaah-! He just laughs it off, though.]

Then it's nothing important, Riku! [He's going to change the subject, now.] Hey, why don't we race then?

just for the record...you make me want to watch coded subs. And your Sora's socute ;w;

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

Sure it's not. [...still, a challenge is a challenge.]

Oh, you're on. Where to?

d'awww, thank you! most of the gameplay isn't subbed but the cutscenes are at least?

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Hmmm...where to? Looking around, trying to find something that he could use as a marker, he then says in a cheery voice]

What about that Christmas Tree? [Though he also adds] So, what's the race for this time, Riku?

no prob. I'm surprised to see coded muns, but I think it's rather rad. B)

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

[Hey, that works. Give him a moment to think here...]

Winner gets--

[OH, wait. Now here's an idea.]

Whoever loses has to dress in drag... for a week.

[Just because he's evil that way. c:]

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Oh crap. Damn you Riku, this means I'll have to win then.]

Fine!

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

[Ahaa, and Riku's already taking off.]

See you at the finish line, Sora!

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[And Sora has enough data to do this -- I mean, brb gliding. ]

Hey, no fair, you started first!

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

So?

[...aw, crud. What is he doing?

Gyaaah, he'll just book it, then.]

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[At least he's not hoverboarding on his keyblade. Even though that would've sounded awesome. Still gliding like a gliding kid towards that awesome Christmas tree!]

We should've at least found Kairi to be referee!

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

Which one? This place is full of Kairis.

[And Riku's just running...and running. Now why can't he have cool hax like that?]

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Because you're not a keyblade wielder? Though gliding is getting kind of boring, so now he's running too B)]

Any would've been nice!

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

You do realize it's too late, right?

[No, he's not the Riku with a shiny Key. Either way, Riku's kinda tempted to do something sneaky, like try and trip Sora just 'cus. :D]

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

Well, let's just get it over with, then!

[If you attempt to trip Sora, he'll just rearrange his data to walk through you. Unless the place doesn't roll like that, Sora has no clue.]

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

You're right. Enough small talk.

[That would... break his brain, seriously.

But for now he'll keep running. He must be the first to touch the tree!]

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[But brain breaking is awesome! Not that Sora knows what that is. He's running like a man now. Wearing a dress will totally humiliate him for liiiiife.]

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

[They can both be SUPER MANLY men, trying to save their skins from the fate that is froofy dresses.

... Right. To trip or not to trip? Hrm.]

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Yes, the loser's going to wear an awesome poofy dress and they're kinda scared to death for it.

Please not to be tripping?]

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

[Well... Riku's going to try something bold regardless.

YEP. He's going to jump. :D]

[bindingcode.livejournal.com]

[He doesn't think this is the data Sora at first, instead glancing over at the mention of King Mickey.]

There's more than one here. I don't know if the one you're looking for is the same as those you might find. [Cryptic, much?]

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Wait, jump over him or--?

That's probably not a good idea Riku. Jumping gives you a biiiig disadvantage. Just have a Sora who's still....running.]

[codedkeys.livejournal.com]

[Ohay thar Riku. Sora thinks that you may be his Riku, but after what younger!Riku told him, it might be difficult to find his Riku. And why so cryptic Riku?]

You haven't seen Mickey, have you Riku?

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

[Sort of a... leap, probably over him, and he'll keep running upon landing.

Not the brightest idea, but the hall's so linear. It's not like on the islands where they could jump on stuff and abuse the bridge, that sorta thing.]
