[When Sora arrives, he has his arms raised for a fight. Despite looking ready for battle, there is no tension in his muscles and he does not look like he is preparing to strike. When he realizes where he is (not home) he drops his arms. He looks around and notes how strange everything here is. There's nothing he recognizes.]

Whoa. Where am I? Did Riku slip cactus juice into my tea again? Next time I see mud, I'm air blasting it all over him!

Comments

hi i don't know you but you win at everything ever 8D

[seabreezing]

Cactus juice? [Confused Kairi is confused.]

Let me tell you about Avatar

[peaceiskey]

[It's Kairi! She's wearing some funny clothes though. What gives?]

Yeah, you know what cactus juice is. Remember when Riku put some in my tea? I thought we were swimming in fire.

i'm not sure what you can tell me about it as i've watched it all XD

[seabreezing]

[She giggles slightly.]

I think I would have remembered something like that. [Also since when do you drink tea.]

I was going for a let me tell you about Homestuck parody ;_;

[peaceiskey]

But you were there. We were still kids then, before we left.

ohhhh i don't watch that sorry =C

[seabreezing]

Left where?

neither do I, I just like the joke

[peaceiskey]

The island, remember? We have to find someone to teach you firebending.

lol k XD also swdfrtgrd stop making me want to bring in Avatar!Kairi aaaa

[seabreezing]

Fire- what? [She blinks in surprise for a moment.]

Wow, you're sure from a different world.

do it I need it you don't understand how badly

[peaceiskey]

[It hits him like a ton of bricks. Different world.]

What...?

you are a terrible person /thinks of usernames

[seabreezing]

This place here - it's called the Dressing Room. It's kind of... a world between worlds. It drags people in from different places. I'm not the Kairi from your world. I barely know how to fight with my Keyblade, I don't think I'd be any good at Firebending.

yes good this is excellent

[peaceiskey]

[Sora, contrary to what most might think, is a very spiritual person. Still, he never gave thought to the idea of other worlds as far as parallel universes are concerned. This is all so much to take in. He doesn't know what to do with himself.]

Jeez, I-- I gotta meditate or something.

shush you i will be bombarding you with headcanon questions about all this as punishment XD

[seabreezing]

[That comment surprises her for a moment, but then she smiles lightly.]

Want me to show you somewhere quiet? There's usually not too many people in the beach room.

honestly I'm working it out as I go right now

[peaceiskey]

The beach room?

[Like home? He really misses meditating to the sounds of the water.]

That would be really great... What's it like?

lol cool that works 8D

[seabreezing]

Yeah, it's this way. [She indicates, taking a step in that direction.]

Well, it's basically just a long beach... there's some trees and stuff too. I don't know how far out the water goes, but it looks pretty far.

[peaceiskey]

That's perfect!

[He's happy to follow, images of the shoreline floating in his mind. Sora would be a liar if he said he isn't homesick.]

[seabreezing]

[Dodedo, walkin' down this here hallway.]

So, what is firebending?

[peaceiskey]

It's a way of fighting for people born in the Fire Nation. Firebenders rely a lot on offense, so they're really aggressive in battle.

Kairi account has been made \o/ radiantspirit

[seabreezing]

Wow, there's a lot of fire in your world, huh?

[Opens a door on their left whichs leads onto a long stretch of sand.]

Here we go! Doesn't look like anyone's nearby.

gorgeous

[peaceiskey]

[Sora is the happiest airbender in the world when he steps into the room. He removes his shoes and goes barefoot from then on.]

Wow. It's almost like home.

/uploads icons

[seabreezing]

Really? It looks a lot like the beach from Destiny Islands, too.

[She takes her own shoes off as well, scrunhing the sand between her toes.]

[peaceiskey]

[He turns to look at her.]

That's what my home is called.

[antipodean]

[Hi,I'm not your Riku.]

You're doing what to me?

[peaceiskey]

I'm going to--

[Oh wow. He sure did shrink.]

Oh man, I definitely drank cactus juice.

[antipodean]

[Excuse you, he is normal height for a 15-year-old.]

Cactus juice?

[peaceiskey]

Juice from this one cactus you're never supposed to it. It makes you see things that aren't there.

[Wait, why is he speaking so casually to a smaller version of Riku?]

Hey, why are you so small?

[antipodean]

Because I'm probably not who you think I am.

[Either the Riku Sora knows is a lot taller or a couple years older.]

[peaceiskey]

You're Riku, my best friend! But small again.

[dawnrise]

[Definitely not your Riku. She has her arms up as if calling for peace.]

Excuse me?

[peaceiskey]

[As if a little Riku isn't enough, suddenly his best friend is a girl?!]

What? Who? Huh?!

[dawnrise]

[At least she's still tall? She drops her arms.]

Sora.

[peaceiskey]

[He's staring.]

What?

[dawnrise]

My eyes are up here.

[Whether his eyes are on her chest or not, she's putting the implication out there, attempting to get his attention on something other than her sex.]

[peaceiskey]

I know where your eyes are!

[He knows exactly what she means. Sora feels pretty awful about it. He doesn't mean to make her feel uncomfortable. It's just...]

Why are you a girl?

[dawnrise]

[She looks amused, and pockets her hands.]

Because I was born that way.

[peaceiskey]

No, you were definitely born a guy. I would know, we do everything together! Ah man, I'm getting so worked up...!

[dawnrise]

[Excitable much?]

Slow down there. You do everything with a Riku.

[peaceiskey]

[Sora takes this time to turn away from her, close his eyes and just breathe. He inhales and exhales five times slowly, calming his nerves, before he turns back to Riku again.]

Okay, all right. A Riku. What do you mean?

[dawnrise]

[She actually hesitates, looking sympathetic.]

How much do you know about other worlds?

[peaceiskey]

[If he'd been raised in a temple of other airbenders, he would have an understanding of other worlds. In reality he knows very little.]

So this is a different world?

[dawnrise]

Sort of. Think of this as a world where alternate realities clash and meet. In my world, I'm a girl. So is my Sora.

[peaceiskey]

Hmm...

[Sora looks her up and down, but not for her body.]

You're definitely not from my world. Your clothes are really different. I guess that means you're not an earthbender.

[dawnrise]

A what?

[Apparently not.]

[peaceiskey]

[He sighs.]

Guess not.

[dawnrise]

[No, now she has to ask.]

What's an earthbender?

[peaceiskey]

Someone who controls earth and rock. Riku's one of the best earthbenders I've ever met!

[dawnrise]

Huh. Interesting.

[Not as interesting as the powers she has, but still interesting!]
