New muse, let's see how this goes!
[It's getting colder, isn't it? It might not have snowed (properly) yet, but it's getting there. The recent icy conditions have helped--well, as far as snow is concerned. As far as this new arrival is, it's not helpful at all. Growing up on a tropical island and having little exposure to conditions as cool as he's experiencing currently kinda sucks.
Congratulations, DR, you've just obtained a very confused and slightly freezing Kai, dressed in a t-shirt and board shorts, standing in the middle of the street.]
W-where am I? These aren't the islands...
Sora? Riku? Dad? Selph? Anyone?

He's unsure what to do or say to the other Kai--not that he even knows it's another one of himself--but he settles for an awkward wave.]
Um...hi, can you tell me where I am?
no subject
It's called the dressing room. It's a sort of... crossroads between worlds.
no subject
[Only much bigger. He can tell it's not Traverse Town, but it's the only thing he can think of at the moment to compare what he's seeing to.]
no subject
[he's starting to shrug off his nice comfy coat, for the record, so that he can give it to the newcomer.]
You'll see a lot of people who look like people you know, or even you yourself, in both male and female here. This place pulls in more than one version of people, from different times and worlds, and even dimensions.
no subject
That's...kinda confusing. So, I might see my friends and family here, but they might not be the people that I think they are?
no subject
Pretty much. I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume your name is Kai? Most of the other versions of you here are female.
no subject
There are female versions of me out there? Wow. This place keeps getting more and more weird.
...Yeah, my name is Kai, how did you know? What's your name, anyway?
no subject
[he grins sheepishly. strange how they're different and yet the same, aside from this one being older.]
no subject
You're me?! I mean, another version of me?
no subject
I am, yeah. That's why Apricot, the rabbit I was chasing, freaked out like that. It's been a while since there was another Kai here.
[that wasn't another version of himself specifically, that is.]
no subject
[He looks a little awkward, hoping that the bunny will be found again eventually.]
no subject
no subject
What?
no subject
Riku!
[And then he's jogging over to her. Sohappy to see a familiar face.]
I thought I was all alone. What is this place?
no subject
Kai?
no subject
Who else would I be? Are you okay?
no subject
[And she doesn't look like she knows where to start. She shakes her head, then gestures for him to follow her.]
Come on, it's freezing.
no subject
[He doesn't mind stories, but he doesn't want her to feel like she has to tell him. He can wait.]
Yeah, it is. I wasn't expecting it to be so cold so suddenly.
[Does following her lead indoors? Or at least to a pair of pants?]
no subject
Of course not. You're not on the islands, if that's where you were before.
no subject
I was. I was headed to the docks. Where am I now?
no subject
You're... on a different world. A different universe.
no subject
A different universe? I get the different world, but how did I manage to end up in a completely different universe?
no subject
This place is called the Dressing Room. Don't ask why, I don't know. No one does. It's kind of like... A world that absorbs other worlds. You can take the train from here and you'll land in Hollow Bastion, Halloween Town, wherever you want. It sucks people in from their worlds and keeps them here for years with no escape.
[She pauses.]
I turned twenty last month, Kai.
no subject
[He hasn't considered the possibility of multiple Rikus--it hasn't even occurred to him yet. Watch him ignore the rest of what she's saying in favor of being totally confused about her age.]
no subject
That doesn't surprise me. But I'm not... your Riku. I've been here almost four years, Kai.
no subject
[Unless she has and she's just really good at hiding it.]
no subject
[There's a calm, slightly teasing tone to her words. Don't worry, she looks perfectly sane.]
no subject
I don't. But you seem fine to me.
no subject
Good to know. What's your first question?
no subject
Um...since you said there's no way to escape from here, I'm going to need a place to stay. Can you help me with that?
no subject
[She leans back in her chair, tilting her head back.]
...there's another Kai here. Older than you. Don't be surprised if you get mixed up. There's no end to the doubles in this place.
no subject
[This also means that he'll be over at her apartment every other night. Or he'll try to, anyway.]
I'd like to meet him. I've never met a double of myself...Nami was the closest thing, but he wasn't around long enough.
no subject
a shame]no subject
Ri...ku...?
no subject
That's my Papa.
[and then she's staring back at Kai before flailing, finally realizing that you're not exactly who she thought you were]
You're not my Uncle Kai!
no subject
N-no, I'm not an uncle...not yet. I'm not ready for that. How do you know my name? I don't think we've met before...
no subject
[Kira is still a bit surprised because this new Kai is younger than the young version of her Uncle Kai; it's quite strange but interesting]
no subject
[That is, red hair and blue eyes and such. He looks less Asian than the icons suggest.]
no subject
[Kira is very happy to meet more people with bright strong Light]
no subject
[Kai likes Light people too. And not-so-Light people like Riku, but that's only because he knows her. Kira's not so bad so far.]
no subject
This is my family! There's Uncle Kai right there, with Uncle Axel.
[it's a nice family photo of all of Kira's rather large family, though everyone is squished together to fit; Kai will see Kira's Uncle Kai with Axel's arm around him and Inaya... there's also a sea of silver hair from Auntie Piku, Kira's Daddy and Papa, and her brother Rikka]
no subject
He does look like me. I see Riku and...who are the other guys? They look like they could be Riku's brothers, but she doesn't have any that I know of.
no subject
That's my Papa, silly. He's a Riku. And that's my Daddy. His name is Ri. He's Papa's Replica, which is a totally terrible thing to call somebody. Mama's a Sora, he's there with his arms around my twin brothers, Satu and Sanyu. Rikka's my older brother and he got silver hair like me, even if the Twins have Mama's brown. And that's Auntie Piku -- err, Riku -- with Uncle Red and my cousin Aden. Uncle Kai is with Uncle Red and my cousin Inaya. Oh, and that's my sister Namine trying to hide behind Daddy. She doesn't like getting her picture taken.
