[Filtered From Hayner]

So let's say that someone recently showed up in this place, but they're from a time where they remember you differently. How can you tell them about how things are in the future without ruining everything? And this isn't just a "oh I moved away" sort of difference, this is something a lot bigger...like memories.

727 days. Nearly two years, and I still don't see any signs of me going home anytime soon. Should I consider that a good thing or a bad thing? For those of you who have been here that long, what do you think?

Oh, hey. Hayner! I'm thinking since you're new here and your sense of direction stinks still, we should probably explore Luceti some more so you get familiar with it. What do you think? Later today?

[Filter to Xion]

Hey. I think we need to talk.

[Oh come on, he had to do something, everything's been too "Waaaaah angst" lately.]

I know, I know, I knooow. But it is kind of totally crazy, right? We're not really normal anymore, you know.

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

... I hate it. I hate that we don't get any choice in things like that even if it's not what we want to do. It's not fair!

... I don't really know what to tell you, but ... I can be there when you talk to him, if that would make it easier. [ she wants to support her friend somehow. ): ]

What? You mean like this—? [ hi roxas, hope you don't mind an arm around your neck pulling you closer and his other hand giving you a noogie. :) ]

[Voice | Same Filter] AWESOME.

[cowboykinneas.livejournal.com]

[... Right.] Personal experience.

To be honest, it seems like most of the bad stuff happens right in our town. It was built over this thing called a hellmouth, which--is exactly what it sounds like. A portal to Bad Things.

[Action]

[perplexme]

Maybe. I dunno. ...have you talked to him yet?

[perplexme]

[fjdsklaj swatting at Hayner's hand now and trying to get out of his grip.] Dude, watch it!

[perplexme]

Then what's the point of still living there? Kind of sounds like something that'd make me move.

[Voice]

[perplexme]

But it has to happen or something even worse will happen, won't it?

[Voice | Same Filter]

[perplexme]

...better you than me at least.

[Voice]

[perplexme]

...[Huh. He didn't really think about that part.]

Yeah, I guess you've got a point. Were we ever really normal to begin with though? That's the real question here.

[willbeawinner.livejournal.com]

[ laughing and holding onto him for a little bit longer before finally letting go. ]

[Voice]

[valorandwisdom.livejournal.com]

Yeah, back before everything started.

[Back when he was one person, and not three. Sora's got no problem with "bits" of him walking around on their own now, but just taking a step back from it makes it obvious how weird the situation is.]

Before the big storm and everything. Been awhile, huh? [Man, three years since then... Really hard to believe.]

[steadfastest.livejournal.com]

I was trying to move out when I got dumped into this place. That would be an example of the Harris luck, holding true. Look, man--I hope you can figure out the right thing to do. It sounds like a tough situation.

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

Yeah. That's why it isn't fair.

[cowboykinneas.livejournal.com]

With all the harassment I got, I'd have to agree with that.

[perplexme]

Dude, not cool. [another swat for good measure though] I'm amazed you found the restaurant on your own.

[perplexme]

Huh? Oh, right, yeah. [Sorry, Xander, you just distracted him with all this talk about demons and vampires and hellmouths.] I'll figure out something soon.

Hopefully this place doesn't disappoint you.

[Voice]

[perplexme]

Yeah, but it's still the right thing to do even if it doesn't make sense. I don't know...maybe that'll change someday but for now...

...tell me about what you have to do when you get home.

[Voice | Same Filter]

[perplexme]

Sorry to hear it man. When the heck was that?

[Voice]

[perplexme]

Sora, that just makes you normal. Xion and I? Not so much, but I guess it's hard to be normal when you're not supposed to exist. But you're right...it's been a while. Kind of crazy to think about.

[steadfastest.livejournal.com]

Luckily it doesn't have a lot to live up to.

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

Me?

... I have to finish awakening the Centurions so that Ratatosk will get all of his powers back and the mana will be balanced again. That should stop all of the strange weather that we've been having in my world.

'round the time everyone wasn't acting like themselves. Wasn't too fun.
