left a trail of dust behind

[artificiality]

[There's a hooded figure sitting on the shore of the beach room. The girl's gloved hands are busily inspecting a Paopu fruit, turning it over as if it's the first time she saw one. Beside her, there's a small box.]

[artificiality]

[D-drops the Paopu fruit, turning to look.

Oh God.]

[devilsman.livejournal.com]

Poppet, is that you?

[ Yes he's looking for Xion, but with him flipping her hood back himself and finding out her hair color -- perfect! ] You've been a bad girl.

[artificiality]

[This is exactly what she was afraid off. T-tries getting away, scrambling away from him.]

[devilsman.livejournal.com]

[ He moves to clutch her head tight with one hand. ] You disappeared, and that was very concerning. Details, now.

[artificiality]

[Tries struggling-- crap, that was an order.]

I-I don't want to do it...

[devilsman.livejournal.com]

And why not? [ Oh look, some fruit. He kicked it up to get a good look at it -- he's never been to Destiny Islands. ]

You see, that just gets me excited for surgery.

[artificiality]

H-he's my friend I can't--!!

N-no, please--

[Oh god she's so near to crying now.]

[devilsman.livejournal.com]

If you tell me, I'll think about it.

[ He handed her the paopu like the nice man he is. He still held her head. ]

[artificiality]

I-I was just sent here, I don't know how--!!

[She looks so panicked now.]

[devilsman.livejournal.com]

You sure? Maybe I didn't cross your wires properly.

[ Hehehe -- ]

[artificiality]

[;______;]

Please, s-see? This place isn't our home!

[GETTING DESPERATE.]

[devilsman.livejournal.com]

[ Pauses, looking around -- right, right. There's color, but there's a reason he isn't letting go. ]

Location check, and how about the fruit?

[artificiality]

W-what?

[It's a Paopu. She was planning to make a charm out of it.]

[devilsman.livejournal.com]

Where are we, and what's the fruit?

[ He waved using it -- ]

[artificiality]

T-the beach room. It's a Paopu fruit...

[devilsman.livejournal.com]

And the beach room is connected to the -- [ He says that in a sing-song motion like that one bone song because really, beach room?

He makes the paopu float in mid-air. ]

Not poisonous, right?

[artificiality]

The dressing room. I-it's another dimension that pulls people in from alternate realities.

[Nooo my fruit ;;]

Y-yes...

[devilsman.livejournal.com]

[ This is so his area of expertise now, hhmph those theories. He breaks two star points, one piece floating to her for being such a good girl. Honestly, what else to do with fruit?

He munches on it. ] Where's the exit?

[artificiality]

[... watch her not eat her part. Blink blink. Points to the door. She thinks he means to the room itself.]

[devilsman.livejournal.com]

[ Hey now, remember what he did when she didn't eat her vegetables -- he wished he had a leash. Heading to the door now. ]

Give me the gist of what's in it.

[artificiality]

[BUT INTERTWINED FATES WITH YOU. I DON'T WANT THAT ;A;

F-follows, just staring down glumly at her half piece.]

D-doubles of people?

[devilsman.livejournal.com]

[ What is that I have no idea what it is -- what. He looked back at her. ]

Like?

[artificiality]

[Meekly points to some random organization members passing by, a few Soras... some Kairis, a Terra...]

[devilsman.livejournal.com]

[ A low whistle, oh god a Terra -- he loves this place already. Xigbar chuckled to himself. ]

You know what, maybe I'll give you chocolate for this. [ Walking around more first, he would like to see more interesting rooms and perhaps find that leash he wants -- ] Show me the interesting places.

[artificiality]

[She casts him a few hesitant glances before going forward, leading the way to some residential rooms near a kitchen. Watch her conveniently run past that room full of BDSM stuff.]
