Someone's bored... can you tell?

[Anyone visiting the Land of Departure room today might find it a little... different than they last left it. There's a dozen or so Floods and Scrappers scurrying about, as well as two Buckle Bruisers.

These Unversed don't seem to be doing anything nefarious at the moment, but their surroundings are trashed to Hades and back. The grass and trees are hacked up, some of the stained glass windows have had rocks thrown through them, and there's scorch marks on the ground and parts of the castle, itself; but most of the damage is cosmetic, at least.

And in the chaos, a certain bad-guy is nowhere to be found. Or at least, is hiding somewhere out of plain sight.]

(ooc: There will probably be BBS spoilers within. To make things go more smoothly, treat this as a mingle thread (since my work schedule's killing me and my tags will be sporadic) so feel free to dispatch the Unversed as you see fit.)

If not more.

But then, at least half of the duplicates have completely abandoned their goals.

with a side of Darkness!

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

That wouldn't have anything to do with that girl, would it?

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

It would, actually. She's... persistent, to say the least. That and completely clueless.

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

So I figured. I ran into her around the same time you had your little accident.



She's irritating, but at least her actions are weeding out the defects.

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

Not only that, but we don't need too much competition, either.

[ He shrugs. ]

So far I've only seen one, maybe two who aren't 'defects'. Then there's the double who's just like Ventus. Probably the strangest I've encountered here, other than the one carrying a melon.

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

Yes, and the more of us there are, the more likely it is for one of them to 'slip up'.



A melon?

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

This is why I'm so skeptical about two of them already. One of them even stood up for the Princess at the ball. If I didn't know any better...

[ Nah, that's too much. He shakes his head. ]

That's right. He claimed it had something to do with the darkness.

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

Princess...

If he's already gone that far, then it's likely he'll be the first to give everything away.

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

If he hasn't already. And even if he doesn't, there's always the other one she befriended.

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

Hmph.

This is a problem I hadn't counted on.

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

There's not much we can do. Destroying her would only be a temporary solution.

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

Really... And why's that?

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

People who die come back sooner or later.

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

I see. How interesting.

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

It's a double-edged sword. When the Princess died, she was gone for about a month, but from the moment she returned she's been causing trouble all over again.

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

And I'm guessing the same would happen to any of our doubles who died.

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

It applies to everyone.

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

In that case, I'll keep an even closer eye on Ventus, just to make sure the truth doesn't reach his ears if it slips.

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

Oh, so it's that Ventus you're after... In that case, you will have to be careful. Seems he's made friends with another double.

He's going to need some real motivation to become stronger here, anyway.

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

Good to know.

And I'm already working on it, just as I imagine you are.

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

Of course. Ventus has no idea what he's getting into.

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

And let's make sure it stays that way.



Good luck.
