[stumbles out of a door, eyes shut and coughing. there's ash all over her clothes and a faint odor of smoke around her]

I-I'm sorry, Merlin! I think I overdid it ag -

[opens her eyes. hello...not Merlin's study?]

...

This...isn't Traverse Town...

(OOC: aflj;sf this place is eating my soul! Have an AU!Naminé. She came into existence in Traverse Town after Kairi lost her heart and managed to attract the attention of a particular wizard with her aptitude for magic. Specifically, her ability to immediately use any magic after just seeing it. But she has a bit of trouble retaining it for long periods of time - and controlling it as well)

[raises eyebrows] Oh my. Hello. [looks her over] Are you okay?

[plusorminus2.livejournal.com]

[she may be unintentionally ignoring the question]

...

You look just like me.

[sketchy-heart.livejournal.com]

Well, I am you in a way. That's the funny thing about this place. There are different versions of everyone from different universes.

...[frowns] And, well, there's no way home.

[plusorminus2.livejournal.com]

[another her. maybe with a different story, a different life. but the disappointment overshadows her interest]

Oh...are you sure?

[sketchy-heart.livejournal.com]

[nods] As of now, yes. No one's been able to find a way back.

[Merlin and pessimism do not mix. a slight smile]

Well...at least I won't be alone so much, even if the only people I know here are myself.

[Rummaging through one of the pantries nearby. Welcome to the kitchen.]

Certainly not.

[plusorminus2.livejournal.com]

[this person looks...odd. she notices the scar first and wonders how that came to be. and THEN she notices she's in the kitchen]

Oh. Then...do you know where we are?

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

[He's not looking at her, instead pulling out jars and putting them back. No good food seemingly in sight.]

Multiverse break: Universes collide here with different forms of the same people. Different stories; same souls.

[He's apparently found something he likes: a jar of super-spicy pickled peppers. He'll be taking those, thanks.]

[plusorminus2.livejournal.com]

[she's not exactly sure what to say to that. and then -]

It isn't like why people come to Traverse Town, is it? Because their worlds have been destroyed...?

[worry. fear. please don't let it be true]

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

[Working on opening the jar; he finally looks at her.]

I haven't heard anyone speak of their universes being destroyed, no.

[plusorminus2.livejournal.com]

[relief. then Merlin was safe. and so was that boy, though she never got to meet him]

Okay. Well...thank you.

[she watches him in silence for a few moments. she'd noticed his blindness but also his ease of movement. still...]

Do you need any help with that?

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

[Pops it open. Spicy peppers for him~]

Nope.

[plusorminus2.livejournal.com]

Okay.

[with that, she walks over to the door she came out of, opening it and peeking outside. other doors, other rooms. then she looks back]

Oh, I almost forgot. Um. My name's Naminé. Pleased to meet you...?

[etiquette was something Merlin took as seriously as magic]

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

[Biting into one of the peppers; swallows.]

Saïx.

Best be careful around here: this place is insane.

[And he's heading off through a different door, confiscated peppers in hand.]

[plusorminus2.livejournal.com]

[good job there. relief? what relief?]

O-oh. I guess I'll have to be... [she calls out this part as he's leaving] Thank you, Saïx!

[no choice but to acquaint herself with this place. she draws a breath, and then steps through the door and leaves. she wonders when Merlin will get around to fixing that hole she made in the roof]

ooc;

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

She made a hole in the roof? LOL. I ♥ your Naminé~

ooc;

[plusorminus2.livejournal.com]

Unintentional Firaga ftw? ^^;

ooc;

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

That's quite the mess to clean up! XD

ooc;

[plusorminus2.livejournal.com]

Hee, she might not want to go back just yet. Fixing the roof AND having finding new furniture to enchant again makes for a very annoyed Merlin.

ooc;

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

He'd probably be more pissed that she's "hiding".

ooc;

[plusorminus2.livejournal.com]

That too. XD

[yourfighter.livejournal.com]

Naminé...?

What happened to your ears?

[ooc: it's eating my soul too >>; ]

1/2

[plusorminus2.livejournal.com]

[it's that boy. the one she's watched practicing magic with Merlin. the one who left]

[plusorminus2.livejournal.com]

M-my ears? [and she raises a hand to check them; nope, perfectly normal]

What do you mean? And how do you know my name?
