Fortieth Keychain-[Voice/Action]

[perplexme]

Yeah, yeah, we get it, new people. Can we stop talking about it already and figure out what we're supposed to do with all of them?

[Currently Roxas is sitting on the ledge of the roof of one of the community buildings. Don't mind him.]

[perplexme]

...what are you talking about?

[pwningdarkness.livejournal.com]

[...Huh.]

You hit your head or something? Or maybe he did something to you...

[perplexme]

...Riku. What's the last thing you remember?

[pwningdarkness.livejournal.com]

We'd just gotten back from dealing with that Fake in Hollow Bastion. We were about to spend the rest of the day with Namine, but what do you know? I wound up here instead.

[perplexme]

...who are you?

[pwningdarkness.livejournal.com]

Riku? C'mon, don't tell me you think I'm the Fake now... it's bad enough that everyone else does.

[perplexme]

Fake...[WAIT. WAIT Axel told us about this!] The Replica?

[pwningdarkness.livejournal.com]

That's right. The Replica that took your heart with the Dark Keyblade... DiZ's little toy.

[...That's a very sharp glare. He's very protective of his 'friends'. Oh how his memories are a trainwreck.]

[perplexme]

...wait what? I think you're confused.

[pwningdarkness.livejournal.com]

... You sure you're okay?

[Hn. He actually looks pretty concerned, very much unlike Luceti!Riku would.]

[perplexme]

...you can't be Riku...[His brain is being beaten up right now.]

[pwningdarkness.livejournal.com]

How can you say that?

[Wait, hold it... hm.]

Maybe you're not him. You're older, and besides... you've got wings.

[perplexme]

...

What is going on?

[pwningdarkness.livejournal.com]

How would I know? I meant to RTC, not wind up here... Wherever this place is.

[perplexme]

...you shouldn't know how to RTC.

[pwningdarkness.livejournal.com]

[He tugs on the sleeve of his cloak.]

I'm with the Organization... for now. Of course I'd pick up a few tricks.

[perplexme]

You...what? No.

[pwningdarkness.livejournal.com]

I think we're both missing something here...

[Groaans]

[perplexme]

What else is new with this place though?

[pwningdarkness.livejournal.com]

You'd know better than I would. I just got here.

[...Hm.]

I'm guessing it's like that other Sora, then. At first I thought he was another one of DiZ's replicas, but now I'm not so sure...

[perplexme]

That Sora's real. ...I think. If it was the Sora I know, he's real.

[pwningdarkness.livejournal.com]

But it just doesn't add up. How can you and Sora be around at the same time?

The Sora I know looks exactly like you, just maybe a year younger.

[perplexme]

Luceti does that...separates us, I mean. I don't quite understand it myself.

[pwningdarkness.livejournal.com]

Separate?

[he sighs, still pretty confused.]

Well, what I mean is... All that's left is his Nobody. There's probably a Heartless out there somewhere, sure, but those things never have minds of their own.

[perplexme]

...Sora's gone?
