015; [text/action for goldenrod pokécenter]

[keychained]

[there are a few unusual things about this here transmission: first, Sora's sending out a few text messages. they're... not exactly his first choice for communicating; he prefers being able to see someone's face when he's talking to them. that and he's painfully slow with hunting and pecking on a keyboard. he's got a good reason for going the text route today, though.]

Is everybody okay? I know all kinds of weird stuff's happened, and I want to make sure nobody's hurt.

[-- and unusual thing number two. though Sora is not much of a typist, he does at least try to make his texts grammatically correct. oh screw it, typing with one hand is annoying.]

let me know soon. also if you guys have any empty bottles hang on to them. or give them to me and i'll hold them for you. ive got an idea

if you find my stuff please be careful with dartanian_

[shortly after mashing the "send" button, Sora tosses his 'gear in front of him on the bed and sighs. tries to sigh. Bell waddles over to to where the 'gear hit the covers and turns it over and over with her tiny arm stubs, prii'ing happily to herself. feel free to make a video call, though you may be chatting with a Togepi at first.]

[if you happen to enter the pokécenter in Goldenrod, you might hear Sora arguing feebly with a nurse and basically being the worst patient ever.]

Well, it's not like that's impossible. But if that's true, then we've worked out one piece of the puzzle!

If that's true, then maybe those dreams are hints at what happened. And then...

[action]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

[... just gonna revert to a completely blown away expression now.]

[action]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

...? Sora?

[action]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

... I punched Vanitas.

[action]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

...

You what.

[action]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

That's the only part I remember about that dream. He was in my face saying something and I just... punched him right in the nose.

[sways to and fro slightly. did he really?]

[action]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

[ oops, steadying him by the shoulders. Well, that would... explain the imprint, but she really doesn't want to think about that. ]

He had it coming, dream or not, but... maybe you should sit down.

[action]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

Oh.

[Sora won't protest; he'll slowly set himself down on the nearest bench and just... stare into forever for a few minutes. he's trying to remember something more than just clocking the guy in the face, but he can't dredge up any other memories.]

[ Rise settles down next to him, watching him concernedly, but not speaking up quite yet. He's obviously trying very hard here. ]

[action]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

... It's no good. I can't remember anything else.

[action]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

Hey, it's okay... you did better than me.

[action]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

Is that what really happened, though? That's gonna drive me bananas.

[action]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

Well...

... We'll figure it out. Have you eaten anything yet?

[action]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

Not yet; I slept through breakfast.

[action]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

Okay~! Food's on me this time.

[action]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

Really? Thanks, Rise! I'm starving...

[action]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

I figured! Especially if you skipped a meal. [ up we go, little bro. ]

[action]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

[he smiles slightly once he's standing up again, just resting for a quick second. yeah, he's kind of a mess right now and inhaling is a chore, but he's not alone. he probably wouldn't have been able to handle being injured if Rise weren't there to help him out.]

[ she's not straying from his side, that's for sure. Let the nurses glare if they must. For now, she just focuses on guiding him at a sedate pace, not anything to get the heart pumping. ]

[action]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

[and, after a few minutes of lurching along:]

I feel like a little old man.

[action]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

[ she laughs a little at that, shaking her head. ] You're nowhere near wrinkly enough.

[action]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

[... to that, Sora reaches up and pinches the skin around his cheek and eye, scrunching the rest of his face up. how's that for wrinkles?]

[action]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

...

[ completely straight-faced. ] You look like an onion.

[action]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

[... don't laugh Sora, oh god don't lau-- ow ow ow ow ow owwww-- yeah that laughter was totally worth it, though.]
