[Piles and piles of papers litter one of the tables in the main room today, as Ienzo shuffles through his notes with one hand and scribbles down more with the other.

There's an empty cage to the side of the couch with bent and mangled bars suggesting that whatever dwelled inside the cage was far from a timid creature.]

Let's see... Dusks are known to attack using strange contortions of their bodies. It's extremely difficult to harm them, and they should be approached with caution... hrm.

[Scribble, scribble...]

Heartless should be avoided at all costs, aside from the White Mushroom and Rare Truffle...

[Scribble, scribble, shift... He places these notes to the side, quickly skimming the results of the survey he conducted several months ago before peering towards his rather limited data on Unversed with a sigh.]

I suppose I could always ask about these creatures, if nothing else.

Who would you ask?

[Suddenly, a Kairi taking a seat on one of those tables. After clearing a space for herself, of course. She comes bearing gifts, Ienzo! (Hint: it's icecream.)]

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

I could always locate a Ventus or one of his friends.

[He shrugs, placing the papers aside. At least he's made some progress today.

So now he'll take the ice cream with a smile.]

Thank you, Kairi.

[willnotbuffyou.livejournal.com]

Sure.

[She flashes him a smile and turns her attention to the icecream she brought for herself, letting her legs swing now that they're off the ground.]

So will you?

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

I might.

[Hmm, well, he might as well take a bite. Yay ice cream.]

I suppose I'm a bit restless, honestly. There's so little to research here, as logic is hardly commonplace in this world.

[willnotbuffyou.livejournal.com]

I understand.

[Really, she does! She's a bit concerned, but things seem to be going well, so... She can't complain until he gets hurt. Which, hopefully, he won't.]

[endlessxsky.livejournal.com]

What creatures?

*oh hi it's Sora lol*

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Hm?

[...Why hello there, Sora. You have successfully deterred his attention from the massive stack of papers.]

Various creatures, though I've been trying to research Nobodies and Unversed in particular.

[endlessxsky.livejournal.com]

*he's got a popsicle, and sits down to look at your research -- it doesn't have pictures :C*

... what are Unversed?

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

[It might have a few diagrams, but nothing too elaborate. Mostly just words, numbers, and the occasional symbols.]

That's what I'm trying to find out. All I know is that they're not Heartless, nor are they Nobodies.

[endlessxsky.livejournal.com]

... so, are they a new enemy? I'd like to know more about them, too. Have you seen any around here?

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

But Dusks aren't that bright. If you can move fast enough, it's not hard to confuse them. Besides, most Nobodies can twist their bodies like that; not having a real identity makes them sort of malleable.

[Hi, have an eavesdropping not-quite-Demyx. Nocturne wanders in, giving the cage a slightly concerned look.]

Lose a specimen there?

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Speed? I see... Well, I suppose the next time I encounter one, I could at least try. However, I'm far from combat inclined.

[As for the second question, he nods, glancing down at the cage.]

It was one of the "Unversed", but it was far from timid. In the end, I didn't have much of a chance to study it.

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you don't really look like the type. Neither am I, really; speed's all I've got going for me.

[This isn't precisely true, but he's not sure how much to say in front of this strange Zexion-analogue]

What are Unversed?

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

I suppose I'm fast enough to evade their attacks, if nothing else.

[Hm. He looks down at his Unversed notes with a frown.]

There is very little known about them presently. While they do appear to be made of darkness, their nature is quite different from Heartless. For one, they don't seize the hearts of others.

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Huh. So, what, they just eat people the normal way? Why would they attack people?

[tsukuyoming.livejournal.com]

What creatures would that be?

[suddenly right behind you, plucking up one of the pages of notes without so much as a may-I-please.]

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

[... Oh, joy. A Zexion.]

The Unversed. Now, if you please...

[He wants those notes back, and he's seriously tempted to take them back, but that would be rude. Sigh.]

[tsukuyoming.livejournal.com]

[he glances at Ienzo himself almost as an afterthought, stepping back a bit but not returning the notes just yet.]

They seem to be somewhat similar to the black creatures I've seen here.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Heartless? Well, there are similarities, but I doubt they're one and the same.

[If they were, then they'd steal hearts.]

[tsukuyoming.livejournal.com]

[he drops the notes to the table, only to pick up some more, his eyes quickly scanning them for information.]

You seem to think they're both made of darkness.

[mizu-melody.livejournal.com]

[Take a curious Demyx leaning his arm on your head from behind--He's got some issues with invading personal space. He only caught the last sentence.]

What creatures? [And you might end up with cookie crumbs in your hair if you don't tell him to move. He's munching on them with a bit of a thoughtful look on his face--he can't decide if he likes them or not.]

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

...Erm.

[Yeah, he's uh. Going to slowly duck out from under Demyx's arm.]

The Unversed. They're rather enigmatic, really.

[mizu-melody.livejournal.com]

[He straightens up and looks at the papers, just a quick glance, not really all that interesting to him.]

Never heard of them. What are they like? [He drops down in the chair next to yours, still munching on his cookies. He offers you one. They've got chunks of dried peaches in them though--don't ask.]

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

They're similar to Heartless, though their behavior is a bit different.

[Hm, he'll take it. Might as well give it a try.]

While violent, they don't appear interested in the hearts of others.

[mizu-melody.livejournal.com]

And uhh... These things... ummm... Unversed? Are they here in the dressing room somewhere?
