[ The line is on but eerily quiet, just the sound of footfalls but really even that's more of a scuffled shuffle - like someone's dragging their feet, or just, you know, lost. ]

Hellooooooo?

Uh.

...is anyone...there?

What happened to everyone?

...maybe I'm dreaming?

Ow...okay maybe not...

[ After a moment's idling he sighs and turns the device off. ]


[ ooc: placeholdery eventually ._.;; b-but wanted this up at a time that's not like you know 11pm..../stares at track record abysmally ... but yes, 'lost not found' cursed :x ]

Uh...yeah there is. I'm looking out the window right now and I can see people.

You sure you're not lost?

<333 i hope otakon is bein good to youu

[skylight]

[ SLIGHT BLUSTER 8C ]

I'm sure! I pinched myself like...twenty times... [ Because to him a dream's the only way he'd be lost, if the world had shifted or some such but he's 99.999901% sure he's awake and well Roxas too so...but he pauses, frowns, sighs. ]

--guess it's a curse...

[ Just not one he's run into to his recollection before...boo ]

<3333 sob I'm so sleepy for most of it

[binarysky]

Don't do that, dummy. You'll just give yourself bruises.

[He squints out the window as if he'll spot Sora down there, wandering confused, if he just tries hard enough.]

A curse...I guess so. It usually is a curse when something weird happens. But did it take you away, or the rest of us?

<3333333333 ;; baw i hope you hav enough blankets... re con accomodations lol

[skylight]

[ PAUSE ...oh true... B| little pinch marks look like an ornery bird got at him rly fuuuu ]

W-elllll...I dunno. I mean. Seems...like it's just me. No one else's replied with the same problem...yet...

...everything okay where you are?

[ :c ]

Yeah we're good! Nice and cozy. c:

[binarysky]

Lucky you.

[He pauses.] Yeah, more or less. Kairi's still trying to bully Axel, but that's not a big problem. Definitely not on the level of a curse.

good good ;; we're always SHORT blankets in those rooms (fuu) am glad you are okay :3

[skylight]

[ A liiiittle uncertain laughter here, the kind that usually links up with kind of maybe not really intonations. He doesn't mind the quiet but this is just downright weird. Dream weird. If it was home it would be more like a nightmare - the island emptied and desolate, bare. But it's not, it doesn't even consciously occur to him. Still he turns the device absently, making a buffering repetition. ]

I was trying to get her to knock it off [ :c ] but every time I told her 'no' she just turned around and chased him up the bookshelf every time I left...

Someone said I should use a spray bottle...

I think the air mattress people have extras, happily

[binarysky]

A spray bottle sounds kind of mean. Oh—that's the point, isn't it? I guess you could try it.

[But cat behavioral modification isn't really the pressing issue.] So are you just going to...wait it out? See if you're back after midnight?

/cheers..! <333 /kurls

[skylight]

Yeahhh that's kinda what I thought -- that it's mean, I mean. I...there's gotta be some other effective way of teaching her...but maybe a spray bottle's nicer than yelling at least. She doesn't seem to notice that anyway....

[ in a weird way fixating on that helps distract this particular other but brought back to the point, he nods, realizes Roxas can't see that motion and says, ]

I was thinking about it. But since I don't have anything else to do, I'll see if there's a way through. I mean who knows. Maybe it's like that other-other City...thing...place....

[binarysky]

I think cats are just deaf to stuff they don't wanna here.

[But back to the matter at hand--he's worried, bro.]

Which other one?

[skylight]

Could be. But then they're kinda just the same as people.

[ Sora laughs a little at that, imagining then in particular Riku - more when they were younger - as a cat. He would hate it. There are curses like that here of course and Sora himself wouldn't mind though probably he'd as soon be turned into an otter, friendly and trying to hold onto Roxas 'paw' confused by the fingers. ]

Um. I dunno if there's a name for it. But I'm pretty sure there's another one. I forget if it's just kind of dark or shadowy, or like opposite of the normal City.

[ He sounds sheepish at not recalling but it hadn't seemed important at the time.....fuuuu ]

[binarysky]

Some people, anyway.

[ He prefers Riku the cat to Riku the person, but...he gets what Sora means. ]

So like...an anti-City. [ pause ] It's like the City has a Nobody.
