[anyone walking by this area will be surrounded by bubbles. not just any bubbles, either. they're multi-colored, and when they pop they make a ringing note much like wind chimes. Roxas here is seated next to a toy puppy that's making the bubbles every time it barks, and is popping bubbles in an attempt to work out a tune]

[She's on the edge of the bubble-area, curious as to the noise. When she sees him popping them, she cautiously puts out a finger and - ding!

That gets her giggling.]

[summer_poprocks]

[she gets a bright grin when he sees her]

Hello.

[keepingoath.livejournal.com]

Hi! [She waves and approaches him.]

Oh! Is it this little guy making them? [Indicates the toy puppy.]

[summer_poprocks]

Yeah. I found it on accident.

[he was pretty spooked when the bubbles came out at first too, until he heard the music when they popped]

Heyo, crazy kid.

[Squall finds himself in another place. With bubbles. What is it with the dog and the bubbles, strange building of doom? Isn't there something out there that's more useful? Like a bathroom? Or a welcoming lobby? Or maybe (just maybe) a place with responsible adults? (What kind of name for a building is Dressing Room, anyway?

Musical bubbles, too. And that doesn't even make any sense.

Oh hey, look, it's a Cloud lookalike, except he's a little older than the guy and his nose is straighter and slightly pointier. What's going on here...?]

[summer_poprocks]

[there is a boy roughly sixteen years old sitting popping bubbles and making music, that's what's going on.

there is also a bubble floating over, ready to pop on your nose.]

So I assume this Roxy is British.

[miniaturestorm.livejournal.com]

[...He's been hit with a bubble.]

What are you doing?

[keepingoath.livejournal.com]

He's pretty cute! I don't think I've ever seen a toy made to do that.

the mun isn't, so pardon any ancient british fail

[summer_poprocks]

[a very musical one, at that.]

Playing music, of course. It's fun.

[summer_poprocks]

Me either. I don't think it's cursed though, not when it does this.

[if it had simply started barking, he would have other thoughts about it. he's very forgiving when it comes to music.]

Maybe you mean Early Modern English? Matches up with the dates.

[miniaturestorm.livejournal.com]

Playing music.

With bubbles.

Uh, yes. I'm not bothering with speech patterns and the like.

[summer_poprocks]

You should try it!

But hearing you say 'thine' in context would be awesome.

[miniaturestorm.livejournal.com]

[Should he?

He walks over and pops a bubble with his finger. It makes a melody.]

...This is unusual...

[summer_poprocks]

Everything here is. But.. I think I like this one.

[pops a series of bubbles in quick succession, a note ringing out for each one]

What tune is he playing?

[miniaturestorm.livejournal.com]

Hmm.

Better than the other places I've found in here, that's for sure.

[He sits down next to Roxas.]

So, what's your name?

[summer_poprocks]

Roxas. What's yours?

[he'd been attempting to work out Joyful, Joyful before he had company. now the notes are random, the color and size of the bubble determining the note]

[miniaturestorm.livejournal.com]

...Squall.

[Would you believe that after a second or two, he reaches out and pops a few bubbles?]

[summer_poprocks]

[he would, because he doesn't actually know anyone like Squall.]

Is this really the strangest thing you've seen here?

[miniaturestorm.livejournal.com]

I've got a feeling I'm going to see stranger.

[summer_poprocks]

I've seen a giant rat before. It wanted to kill me and Riku. It was after she got stuck in a giant keyhole.

The Giant Rat of Sumatra? DDD: Good God.

[miniaturestorm.livejournal.com]

...Yes.

I'm going to see stranger.

Nope, from the Nutcracker.

[summer_poprocks]

What could be stranger than that?

[miniaturestorm.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure. But if I knew, it probably wouldn't seem strange.
