[And suddenly, an Aqua! An Aqua who seemed intent on chasing someone, until her attention was drawn to the fact that she's not where she was supposed to be.]

What...?

[...She shakes her head. No. She cant get distracted. She needs to find him.]

Van! Where are you?!

[He is in so much trouble when she finds him.]

[A silver-haired boy in a black and grey jacket gives her a curious look for a moment. Well, he's been meaning to have a word with an Aqua anyway. As she calls for her friend, he pauses. Can't have heard that right... but the answer's the same.]

Uh... he's probably not around here. Well, not exactly. It's kind of complicated.

[rainxfallen.livejournal.com]

[Turns her attention to him, narrowing her eyes a bit.]

...Complicated, how?

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

[Sigh.]

There's a good chance that whatever brought you here didn't bring [pause] him with you. This is kind of a world outside worlds - it picks people up at random. While you'll find people here who look like him? They likely aren't going to be your friend. Well, not the one you knew.

[rainxfallen.livejournal.com]

[...Takes a moment to think about that. Then shakes her head.]

As fascinating as that is, I need to find him. So could you tell me how I can get back?

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

[He looks down.] I really wish I could. There's no set way.

[rainxfallen.livejournal.com]

[He could not have said anything worse. Really.]

...Please tell me you're kidding.

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

[He closes his eyes, turns slightly-] I wish I was. I wish I knew an answer.

[rainxfallen.livejournal.com]

[Augh. This is a headache she doesn't need. It's bad enough that Van ran off like that. But now she cant even go look for him? This sucks.]

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

...I'm sorry. I wish I had better news for you. All I can say is when you do get back [he'll make it a 'when' rather than an 'if' for white lie's sake] it'll be like you were never here. Things will be the way they were when you left.

[rainxfallen.livejournal.com]

[...Looks back at him.]

So I just have to be patient?

[She can deal with that. She's been undercover for the past few years. She can wait a little bit longer.]

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

Yeah. There's nothing to it but wait it out and hope.

[rainxfallen.livejournal.com]

[Sighs.]

I see.

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

Yeah. It's not a bad place, though. It looks after people who end up here. Or something does.

[rainxfallen.livejournal.com]

I guess it's not so bad then. Is there anything else I should know about it?

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

Okay, let me see...
[He starts listing things off on his fingers.] There's all sorts of accommodation and everything for people here. The food's handy, and there's plenty of it. Plenty of things to do - there's stuff like games rooms, but I think you might be interested in the training and simulation rooms too?
...And, uh. There's rooms that look like bits of worlds. And like I kinda mentioned, people who are copies of people you'll know, but from other universes and timelines.

Sorry for late reply. Stressful week was stressful and giving me trouble with muses. ^^;

[rainxfallen.livejournal.com]

[She listens carefully, making sure to remember everything.]

I see.

Thanks.

Aw.

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

No problem. I ... wouldn't want to see you get all confused about things, you know? Well. Anyone. I remember it not being fun when I got here.

[Although part of that was because 'hello, vengeful Terra wants to kill you.']

[rainxfallen.livejournal.com]

[Nods.]

I suppose it's a good thing I ran into someone friendly first then, huh?

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

[He laughs.] Yeah. I mean, most people here are all right, but there's a few who ... ah, aren't. And it can be a bit dangerous, too. The other day, we had an invasion of Heartless - uh, imagine what you'd get if Unversed went around stealing hearts and you're pretty close. You've got to watch yourself.

[rainxfallen.livejournal.com]

[She knows of Heartless. Master Xehanort used them to try to train them to use their Darkness. However, she hasn't seen one in a long time.]

I think I can look after myself pretty well.

[Drops her serious face for a moment to smile. Confident, this one.]

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

[He grins.] I thought so. But better safe, am I right?

[rainxfallen.livejournal.com]

True. You can never be too careful.

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

Heh, yeah. [A bit of a chuckle.] ... You're a Master, right?

[rainxfallen.livejournal.com]

Yes. A new Master, but still..

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

Ah. So I ... guess you wouldn't be interested in passing some time here giving any lessons?

[Long shot is go.]
