[So, somewhere near the corridor that leads off towards the desert?

There's a problem.

Light, light everywhere... it's just about electrifying the corridors, bouncing off walls, turning quite some area into an illuminated minefield.

And in the centre of it, for those brave enough to make their way through? Wait - isn't that Kingdom Hearts? Sitting against a wall, laughing - not a healthy laugh, though, one of someone who's lost their grip on things. Laughing at this turn of fate.

Why? Why this? Why her?]

[ Hey. Hey. Do you know what this means, Kurt?

SOMEONE THAT LOOKS SO MUCH LIKE YOUR FORMER SELF, STROLLING INTO THAT GENERAL AREA. Looking so far from pleased, and slightly mortified. Also. this.. this Kurt Zisa is positively leaking darkness. ]

[Feeling that darkness before seeing it, looking up - it shouldn't feel so wrong, dammit! Though seeing that face there just adds to the wrongness...

Another weak laugh.]

How do I stop this?

[ And those familiar eyes will lock onto.. god, what even. That darkness leakage comes to a halt, and KH looks quite, quite stunned. Light, Light, Light.. hearts, hearts, hearts. ]

What? Laughter?

[ That voice, though as.. deep as it is, Kurt knows his voice best, so he should be able to tell it's a bit shaky. ]

[Yeah. He can. Something's up there, too, apart from the whole thing of it being his face there.]

The light. Everywhere...

Oh.. try pulling it back to you, and keeping it formed to your shape..

[ crosses arms over chest, SO TENSE. ]

Mm. I can - try.

[Closing eyes here, to try and concentrate on the sensations alone, at least that's one lot of senses out of the way... but there's little confidence in those words. There's just so much of it here!]

[ All the while, KH here will just.. try and figure out what to do. Everything has been stripped from her, and her conscience has been placed in an entirely new place.. what even. Also, aaaah, Light.. feels so weird. ]

[Slowly, in specks and flickers, it'll come back, Kurt gritting teeth to try and keep it in. Totally unnatural. Totally wrong - but what's stranger is the feeling that the dark presence over there is even more out of place. Is that how I feel to her? he thinks.]

[ Am I really that short? KH will resort to looking at the hands that.. are currently her's, and then kind of looking over the entire new body she has. So, so odd. brb, leaking darkness again. ]

[From that point of view, everything is short. Except maybe Lexaeus. Sensing that, there...]

... hard for you too?

Very. It was.. an experience when this first happened, I will say that.

[ No, she did not eat anyone.. maybe. ]

You're coping better than I am. I had no idea... though maybe I should have.

I'm the one that's still.. well.. how should I put this? At least you have yourself together as of now.

[ sighs. ]

But.. we aren't the only ones having problems. There have been quite a few commotions in the halls that were not caused by anyone out of the ordinary.

[Giving a curious look-]

I wouldn't have expected this to be an isolated case. What else have you seen?

Well.. a few fights broke out, a shouting match, and even one or two crying people. There is much confusion surrounding the Dressing Room residents right now, I can tell that even without being in my own body.

Is that ... part of what I'm feeling here? Everything's - just a blur. A million whispers on the wind.

In many different ways.. you are feeling the most extreme empathy to the residents of the Dressing Room. You are connected to every single heart in this place, and can easily find those who are without hearts if you wish to do so. You can feel the emotion of the room as a whole, or each emotion that the individual person is feeling at the time.

[ and she'll sit here and just feel.. tall. ]

You can. You were created to it.

Yes, but you are the one who has the ability to do so now, Kurt.

[Slump. Usual confidence totally gone.

Honestly, he's not sure if he wants to look or not.]

[ and now it's her../his.../WHATEVER, IT IS NOW KH'S TURN to try and stifle a chuckle-- ]

[And there's a little bit of a 'huh' noise at that.]

To think how many of us would have wanted this experience...

I'm imagining more the reactions to those around us who have not had this issue... like our daughter.

[ laughs. ]

[Okay, that's enough of a distraction to bring out a slightly more amused laugh, if one tinged by sadness.]

I'm sure she'll understand. But this - is going to be an awkward explanation, hm?

A bit more awkward than when I changed into a more masculine form, yes.

[ grins. ]

[Heh. That looks so odd.]

Though then again, in some ways, what is there to explain? It's obvious enough what has happened, isn't it?

Yes. Knowing our Layla, she might be able to tell immediately.

Hm. Quite possible, when I think about it...

[ hmmm. ]

Is there.. ah, any questions you have? About.. being in that body?

Apart from how to keep my focus while in it? I'm not sure...

[Yeah, someone is missing the obvious differences.]

[ Oh, Kurt. ]

It can be quite difficult to do so if you aren't use to it, I know.. but, if you do have a question at.. any point in time, feel free to address me.

Hm. Thank you. [Smile.] I'll be sure to.

[ insert awkwardness-- ]

... is there anything you would like to go do?
