[The simulation room's in use today.

Xeha here's going for a bit more hands-on experimentation than theorising. The setting's fairly plain, a black room, but around him hover screens, readouts; pulsing waveforms that hang in the air, lines of intense black and pure scintillating white overlapping. And hell, has he messed with the local gravity, or is he just on an invisible platform?
Even this one isn't immune to the dramatic at times, after all.

He touches a panel at his right; a semi-transparent keyblade appears in front of him. Very plain and simple. A few touches to the left and the various waveforms highlight, change; a few pokes to the right again and the key morphs. It's sharper in form, darker in colour. A red light flashes and he curses, dismissing the hologram.]

Why won't it stabilise... what am I missing?

[He's so close... he can almost taste it...]

Wow, fancy.

[there's an Axel in the doorway with a bag of chips. she was planning on using the simulation room for a little target practice, but she can wait. this seems interesting.]

[He jumps a little at the interruption, but gives her a bit of a smile.]

I like being able to see what I'm doing.

And you need this whole thing for that?

[she waves a hand at... everything, vaguely, letting the chip bag go up in smoke.]

What are you doing anyhow?

[This visitor, on the other hand, is very definitely messing with the local gravity. No invisible pillars for him!]

Now isn't that just the question?

I usually use the labs but - it's a change of scenery.

[He hops down from his pedestal to come over.]

I study keyblades.

[He laughs, waves his friend in.]

Somehow, I'm not surprised you managed to find me here.

Huh. I have to admit, not what I was expecting with that face.

[yeah, she's got no tact. but keyblades is decidedly better than hearts.]

[Eh, he's heard worse. Dryly, he comments-]

Well, why follow the crowd?

I like you more already.

[Anyone with a sense of humour is better than Xemnas (and therefore regular Xehanort).]

I'm glad to hear it.

[He gives a bit of a smile.]

So. Keyblades.

[a thing she wants to know more about, certainly.]

What about them?

[He shrugs, idly-]

What do you want to know?

Wouldn't mind knowing what all this is for in regards to them, for starters.

[Looking around at it himself-] It's for examining and simulating them. Studying the light and darkness levels within them, tracking the ambient magical enhancements any given blade'll have.

Huh, didn't realize they had too much in the way of levels.

They get quite different from each other. Here, let me show you-

[He turns towards the displays again.]

[well she's got nowhere else to be. she can stay and see what he has to show her!]

Alright. Let's start with this -

[A projection of his baseline key appears, along with a display.]

This is mine as it is normally. You can see the energy readouts here: so much light, so much dark. It corresponds pretty closely to my own, as far as I can tell.

[A bit of a fiddle around, and the key and projection change.]

This is a heavier hitting form. The overall dark-light ratio's not too different, but you can see that the magic output here [waves at a chart] has changed, and some of the features have moved around. And this-

[The projection changes.]

I took these readings from a Sora's, some time ago. You can see the difference - the double light peaks here, that fainter dark anomaly there.

[Naturally, Braig wastes no further time in coming in properly. Might as well get a better look at the show, so to speak.]

What, you think I'd miss something like this? As if.

Of course. [Smiling.] I'm just trying something new with this all.

[she frowns faintly at the 'double light' thing.]

The doubling- does that have to do with Roxas?

Hey, best place in the world to do it, right?

It wouldn't surprise me. I'd need to get readings from a Roxas - or a Sora whose heart was never unlocked - to confirm, though.

Exactly. [A gesture to everything-] At the moment, I'm running simulations of - theoretical 'ideal' keyblades. Ones without an owner's influence.

Right. Can't help you with that, I'm afraid.

[though... what about the dark anomaly? she's no science-type, but it has her curious.]
