Is this heaven?

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

[You know what wide open spaces need? Stuff to bust up. This formerly pristine and tidy park has now been covered in boxes, chests, barrels, vases, lampposts, blox, and crates. Basically, if you can smash it up for munny and other drops and goodies, it's here. And they regenerate. Just be careful of the Barrel Spiders.

There's already one tiny Replica in the middle of the field, happily bashing at every white vase and tacky white flower decoration it sees.]

[Hello Replica, have someone staring at you in almost horrified wonder. He has no idea what it is you are doing.]

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

[it gives a happy shout when one smashed vase finally gives up a Card; that will get tucked away and then it will pick up the scattered munny and synthesis materials and put them into little piles for later]

[summer_poprocks]

[That only prompts Roxas to lift the lid of a small pot nearest him. It's empty, which only has him even more confused. Where's all that stuff coming from?]

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

[tiny Replica notices this and immediately looks displeased]

You're doing it wrong!

[summer_poprocks]

[Roxas probably jumped a foot just now. It's a good thing he wasn't still holding the lid.]

W-what?

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

[too bad, if Roxas dropped the lid he'd probably get a few munny]

You're supposed to smash everything up!

[summer_poprocks]

[He wouldn't even know what to do with it.]

But why? Where's that stuff coming from?

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

Because! Everyone knows that when you smash up pots and vases and boxes, you get munny. Or synthesis items. Or you get healthier. Or you get Cards. That's what I'm looking for.

[it sounds very knowledgeable doesn't it]

[summer_poprocks]

I don't think I need any of those things. I don't even know what some of them are.

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

Hmph. You must be pretty weak then, if you aren't upgrading your gear and your Deck.

[summer_poprocks]

What's a deck?

[He's wielding a crutch, does that count as gear?]

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

A Deck is what you use to fight in Castle Oblivion. This one is mine.

[it pulls its Deck out of its pocket and fans out the Cards to show Roxas]

Pretty good, huh?

[summer_poprocks]

I dunno. I've never heard of that place. What do you do, throw cards at things?

[forgetmenought.livejournal.com]

[this one might be a familiar face. she's picking up one of those white vases and holding it to her body before trying to get the replica's attention.]

Riku?

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

[tiny Replica doesn't know you at all, though it does pause because you're holding that vase; on closer inspection Namine might realize that the Replica is still on the short side and looks about 14, but still has the same 'not finished Heart' feeling as its older self]

I'm not Riku. I'm a Replica.

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

[it now looks insulted]

No! Are you dumb? You use the Cards to access your magic and special abilities!

[summer_poprocks]

[Roxas actually looks a little hurt at that. He knows he doesn't know much, but no one's actually called him things for it before.]

I don't have any of those.

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

[all part and parcel around being this Replica, since it doesn't have much in the way of manners]

So you're really weak then. How do you fight?

[summer_poprocks]

I don't fight. I stay out of trouble and be good.

[Well, he tries to. Sometimes trouble finds him. This Riku might be one of those cases.]

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

[Save some of those crappy Castle Oblivion decorations for Larxene! She'll just be over here, taking out her frustration on anything white.]

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

[... snort]

That doesn't mean anything. What if you're attacked? There's Heartless here. You don't even look like you can run away fast.

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

[there's plenty for everyone, what the re-spawning and all; have yourself a nice 6 Card for your enthusiasm]

[summer_poprocks]

I call Riku.

[She is his emergency button, yes.]

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

[ew, she's had more than enough of cards. She tosses it aside. Here you go, Ri, free card.]

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

I could kill you right now before Riku even gets here.

[it looks at its Cards pointedly]
