Voicetest?

[oblivionswater]

Five years.

Everyone's going to be so much older now; Ven's probably tall now, and Terra...

[Thinking about that hurts.]

Hopefully he's alright, I got him out of the Darkness.

Comments

[doestheickyjobs]

[Pretty much.]

They keep going. ... If they're stubborn enough.

[oblivionswater]

Ven's... pretty stubborn.

[Ohdamn.]

If he woke up he's probably wandering around the Castle completely lost. I have to get back there!

[Way to go Axel. Now she's got herself another self-assigned mission.]

[doestheickyjobs]

This Ven kid lost his heart?

[Slightly dubious, because generally when someone loses their heart they don't just go to sleep.]

[oblivionswater]

[A nod.]

That's what Master Yen Cid said.

[doestheickyjobs]

It doesn't usually leave someone asleep so much as -- well. Vanished. Replaced by a Heartless. Fun stuff!

[oblivionswater]

Ven's asleep, he didn't turn in to anything.

[Except maybe Roxas. Kindasorta. More a plot device really.]

I don't know if that's possible where he is anyway.

[doestheickyjobs]

Then whatever happened to him, I doubt he's a Nobody.

[Except maybe, kinda sorta, Roxas. -- Nomura just got sick of drawing new character designs, that's all.]

Where is he?

[oblivionswater]

[And Sora needed a reason to have a keyblade that wasn't completely ridicu-- wait. Nevermind.]

Castle Oblivion.

[doestheickyjobs]

[Always nice to have one or two that doesn't look like a Disney movie had the hiccups...

Also, what. One moment, he's staring at her.]

Castle Oblivion?

[oblivionswater]

[Where else was she going to hide him from Xehanort; Atlantica?]

Castle Oblivion.

[Why is that so odd?]

[doestheickyjobs]

[Is that why he was so interested in the place?

Doesn't Axel just wish he'd met you years ago, Aqua.]

How did you end up there?

[oblivionswater]

[She really doesn't know better than to not trust you Axel. Poor dear.]

I didn't end up there Axel, I was the one who transformed it from the Land of Departure where the three of us grew up.

[doestheickyjobs]

[Oh, c'mon, he's not that bad. She could be having this conversation with -- say... Zexion.]

Transformed a whole world? Aqua! I'm impressed! That must take some doing.

[oblivionswater]

I'm a Keyblade Master, it's part of our duties in protecting the worlds. The Land of Departure i- was a place where Light and Darkness were in perfect balance, it was my responsibility to keep it from being used for evil.

By turning it in to Castle Oblivion, nobody can find it's secrets no matter how hard they search.

[doestheickyjobs]

[Under his breath, almost inaudible:] Isn't that the truth.

-- Keyblade Master, really? You guys are just coming out of the woodwork these days! Maybe you'll manage that rescue mission after all.

I really love these two. I MUST SAY.

[oblivionswater]

There are only two of us left who aren't retired, and I... don't like to think of Xehanort as a Keyblade Master. Even if he is one the path he's on has gone too far away from the meaning of being one.

I didn't expect them to get along so well!

[doestheickyjobs]

He's one too?

[Axel's silent for a moment, mouth drawn in a thin line. If he'd had the power of the Keyblade all along...

Well, suddenly he feels like an idiot.]

I've seen a few other people tossing Keyblades around.

Well, he hasn't tried to kindnap her or set her on fire. :|

[oblivionswater]

It's not uncommon for people to be able to wield a keyblade, there used to be hundreds of keyblade wielders and Masters. I simply don't know of any others.

Hey, he only does that if he's got a good reason!

[doestheickyjobs]

The names Sora and Riku ring any bells for you?

Keyblade + knows the things about C.O. + trolling Xemnas?

[oblivionswater]

They were still kids the last time I saw them.

[They were cute as moogles Axel, you don't even.]

These are reasons to ally with, not antagonize ~

[doestheickyjobs]

They're teenagers now.

--So, were they chosen by Keyblades back then too?

careful, he might forge a d-link with her or something at this rate. XD

[oblivionswater]

[Yeah. Not going to comment on that whole 'missing 10 years' thing.]

Terra chose Riku, Sora... someone must have after I left their world.

Hey, she could always use a Fire-power boost, right? /grin

[doestheickyjobs]

Must be. So, you all from the same place?

...have you seen Raging Storm?!

[oblivionswater]

[She shakes her head.]

Keyblade wielders can come from any world, and in theory can be chosen at any stage of their lives.

Okay, so she could kick anyone's ass *already*...

[doestheickyjobs]

That's not something you want to go around telling people. Just for your information.
