[steps out of a room, adjusting the cuffs of his shirt. What's this? Axel has found him a change of clothes, and is now wearing close-fitted pants, boots, a shirt with rolled up sleeves, and a vest. There is also a pair of goggles perched on his head, giving him the overall look of a
Victorian-era inventor. Yes, Axel is a not-so-closeted-anymore steampunk]

[He doesn't say anything, just flops down on a nearby couch and pulls out a copy of "1984"]

You have goggles too! [pulls on his, which are on his head. this sora is nine, if you haven't seen him around]

Sure do. What're yours for?

When I fly! [demonstrates by pulling his goggles down and his black feathered wings coming out of his back. he flies around Axel] What are your for?

... Mostly just for looks. [observes with interest]

Well, they look cool!

Thanks. [smirks and ruffles Sora's hair]

So, how'd you get the wings?

I don't remember. According to Riku I think I must've almost died or something.

[smile!]

Oh.

...

So... what do you like to do for fun?

[subtle topic change. Not like Sora pays much attention to it...]

I like to eat and fly and look for other +Anima!

... okay, what are +Anima?

People like me who're part animal. I'm a crow.

...

[frowns and turns back to his book. Kay, that's weird.]

What're you reading?

"1984" by George Orwell. It's one of my favorites.

What's it about?

Evil governments, people keeping secret diaries and then dying. Kinda hard to explain, really.

Oooh.

[Syaoran!Roxas is curious about the book. History-freak much, yes? Oh, and he has goggles too.]

What are you reading?

"1984" - It's a book about a future where everyone is oppressed.

The future? Of what world? From the world you came from?

Kinda. More like a fictional future... 1984 was actually the year before I was born, so it's just a book.

...it sounds interesting. What was the name of your world?

Well... technically I'm from a world that's part of a... multiverse, I suppose. There's Earth, which is where I was born, but then there's Hollow Bastion, where I live, and the World That Never Was, which is where I lived before that... plus about 60 others that I know of right off the top of my head.

[this Saix is from the Victorian era, so excuse him if those clothes have managed to catch his attention.]

[frowns at, this Axel more or less HATES Saix. Like, hard. Talk to him at your own peril]

[ooh, lucky him. either he's not picking up on that frown or just doesn't care - more than likely the latter, however.]

Are you the same gentleman I met yesterday?

No, I'm not. [back to book]

I thought not. My apologies, then, for interrupting your reading.

(oh look. it's one of the refugees. her hair's darker, though, and she's holding 2 things: the book 'The Divine Comedy Volume 1: Inferno' and a small basket with a dragon egg in it ( (http://dragcave.ath.cx/viewdragon/tGrY)))

[raises an eyebrow after looking up from his book]

... do I know you?

Maybe...
Okay, do you know about the Refugees?

... holy shit, and here I was thinking I'd never see any of you meddling bastards again. [a wide grin]

What've I been missing in Refugee-land? You guys beat Xemnas yet?

Not as far as I know.
Uh...Ryune was nearly assassinated, and I uh...

(pause)

Remember Glow?

Glow? Kinda...

Wait, that far back? Man...

Well she...uh...she's my other.

Oh.

... another alternate timeline, I guess, like how Ryune's nobody is running around in here too.

I met her.
She's...odd. Said something about what happened being a game.

(she shrugs)

I don't know what she was talking about.

It's Ryune, did you expect anything less?

[leans back] So what've you been up to?

Avoiding the Organization.
Xemnas apparently adopted a 'any human nobodies who don't join the Organization will be hunted down and killed' policy.
I've been running for...I don't even know how long anymore.

Boy I know how that feels. Why aren't you running with the Refugees, then? If Ash, Song and I are any indication, they don't really care what you are so long as you'll help, it'd seem.

If I could, I would. I lost my laptop, and couldn't get in contact with any of them.
