[When the video feed first clicks on, there isn't much in the way of visuals except blackness, interspersed with the occasional flash of dull light. The sounds are much more fascinating than the sights, as it were: something is snuffling at the pokégear, and after a moment there's a series of sharp thunks, as if someone were rapping against the microphone. Something is trying to eat it.]

-- Hey! Knock it off! Look, there's food in the bag if you're hungry..

[The feed swings around wildly as Sora snatches away and tries to wipe the pokégear off on his jumpsuit, then stops abruptly as he turns it over in his hand and stares straight into the camera, his expression bewildered. This thing looks more high-tech than the lifts in Hollow Bastion.]

Okay, I'm.. not really sure what I was expecting, but the everlasting Darkness is weird.

About time you showed up, Sora.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[.................................]

........Sora?

[newhero.livejournal.com]

... Yeah? Who are you?

[mysticpearly.livejournal.com]

[Safe to assume he's in New Bark Town?

If so, if he's anywhere outside, he'll soon notice a young girl peering around a corner at him, looking both wary and curious.

Peeking a bit more obviously around the corner is a very small Phanpy, its trunk raised in curiosity.]

[Indeed! Sora catches a glimpse of her out of the corner of his eye, feeling a pang in his chest- he's still assuming he's lost somewhere in the realm of Darkness, and it shouldn't surprise him to find others lost as well. how many worlds were destroyed before his own, after all? it still hurts to see it, though.]

Hey.. Are you okay?

[video]

[notatimecop.livejournal.com]

Things are definitely weird here, my friend.

[video]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

[at least he didn't drop the Pokégear this time.]

I'm starting to think weird isn't a strong enough word for it. Who're you?

[Video]

[foolishwren]

... Sora?!

[Video]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

Hey! Uh..

[lightly scrunches up his face in thought, like he's trying to think of a tactful way to ask who seems to know him, "Who are you?" without sounding rude.]

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

[Blinkblink, that looks like...]

Sora..? Why're you so small?

[video]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

Small? Hey, I'm still growing!

[that's his only argument though; he simply presents Ven with a bemused stare in the meantime.]

[action] ...hi :V

[aquatic-sitar.livejournal.com]

sdgjklhsdf

don't mind the weird guy in a black coat and being totally not suspicious staring from over here HE WAS TOLD SORA WAS GONE WHAT IS THIS why are you smaller. But yeah, weirdo in a coat was still looking around New Bark, procrastinating with moving on to the next town because ew, traveling.]

[action] ... hello o_q

[newhero.livejournal.com]

[weird, check- suspicious, check- hey hey HEY he is not small! he's just waiting on a growth spurt thank you very much! there's now a Sora and a Girafarig darting behind a nearby house and attempting to follow the weirdo- let's see who wins this round in the game of stealth.]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

-- Hi!

[he smiles a little, though it's apparent how awkwardly he speaks that he's confused about something.]

[airwinged.livejournal.com]

[Is that--]

[airwinged.livejournal.com]

Sora!

[walking-the-cat.livejournal.com]

Sora. . .? [It's been a week since he's heard from him but hey. . . two or three people were missing during the Unown event. Maybe Sora was one of them.]

. . .ano. . .why are you shorter?

[newhero.livejournal.com]

I'm shorter? I don't feel any shorter.. I mean, I'd have to stand next to Goofy to be absolutely sure, though.

Do I know you?

[Video] If he wasn't in human form Sora would probably think he was a heartless XD

[beyond-boundary.livejournal.com]

(Do you see the Azure? Where are you?)

[Video] oh man, he probably would xD

[newhero.livejournal.com]

[... thunk thunk thunk. Sora's tapping the pokégear lightly; it seems to him that it keeps cutting in and out.]

Sorry, I didn't catch all that.. But I'm not sure where I am. Who is this?

[Video]

[madeit4ritsuka.livejournal.com]

Everlasting darkness?

...What's 'everlasting' mean?

[Video]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

Everlasting! It means forever. Kind of like, mm.. You know how if you stand at the shore, the ocean seems to go on forever? It's sort of like that.

Sora!

video. [1/2]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

[Sora blinks down at the older face on to his pokégear screen- he recognizes that voice. he recognizes that voice--]

[Video]

[radiantxsmile.livejournal.com]

Everlasting darkness? What are you talking about, Sora?

[Video]

[newhero.livejournal.com]
