Who: Riku and Sora, open!
Broadcast: from the Abeo moon!
Action: ... in Abeo prison. 8D
When: Now!

[ the feed flickers on to show two faces--riku and sora. they're both in a dingy, enclosed space, with riku looking a little peeved. ]

Anyone on Abeo, from the Bloodsport? Or... any ship?

Anyone without flashy hair. [ Sora cuts in, looking exasperated. ] Spikes are not flashy. This is...sorta natural. Anyway, we need someone to bail us out!

They're flashy here. [ 8| ] What he said. I can't believe you actually got thrown in jail...

I can't believe you got thrown in jail! [ He gives a tug at the spikes of his hair. They're only half natural, but shhh. ] Apparently if they think your hair is too fancy or weird here, it's a crime. So, we need someone who doesn't look like that or whatever to come get us out. Because you'll get thrown in too, apparently.

[ riku just makes this annoyed noise. ] Of course I got thrown in jail, I look weird! You'd look normal if you didn't spike your hair!

[ And Sora looks SO AFFRONTED. ] At least I don't have old guy hair!

At least I don't have clown shoes!

They aren't clown shoes! And you used to wear waders over your jeans. [ But for all the arguing, neither actually looked legitimately mad. ]

[ it's far more like they're both enjoying ribbing the other, while getting out their frustrations at the situation. ] Used to, but I quit. You're still wearing weird stuff. What was that in the dream world, anyway?

There was nothing weird about my dream world clothes. Was there?

[ riku opens his mouth, but then, looks befuddled... and presses his hand against his mouth. hm. was there...? ]

Exactly. [ he sticks his tongue out at his friend, and then reaches for the device. ] I think we're getting off track.

--hey, if you wanted to make your own broadcast, you should've remembered yours. [ shaking his head. ] Whatever the bail is, I'll pay it back to whoever gets us out. I've got more than enough.

[ It has to be admitted that Stephanie is only just holding back laughter, because their banter is pretty amusing. But she's doing her best, considering they are in jail... ]

Have you found anyone to bail you out, yet? I'm wouldn't have enough money to help, but I'd hate to think you'd be imprisoned for long just because of your hair.

[clownshoes]

Our captain is gonna try and do something!

[ hopefully he doesn't come down though, bc his is kinda flashy too... ]

Right? My hair's totally normal.

video

[howcanihelp]

I hope he manages it soon. I can't imagine it's fun being stuck in prison.

[ ....well, about that normal, Sora... ]

Well I wouldn't say-- no one at all has hair like that where I'm from. [ quickly ] But it's not bad or anything! Just different.

video; when reality and jrpg collide lmfao

[clownshoes]

Well...I don't know many other people with hair like mine, but it's not that weird where I'm from! There's even a guy whose hair is spikier than mine!

video; she thinks he must be using magic to keep it in place. Only explanation.

[howcanihelp]

Even spikier? I wouldn't think that'd be physically possible!

video; wait til she finds out he's friends with donald, goofy, and mickey mouse

[clownshoes]

It's super possible! I'm surprised how few hair colors and types there are around here, actually.

video; talking animals? Seems dangerous... O_o

[howcanihelp]

[ curious ]

What do you mean? I've seen quite a variety of color. Do you have more, where you're from?

video; well considering how terrible at healing donald is non-canonly....

[clownshoes]

Yeah! There's all sort of colors like blue, silver, and kinda purple-ish...I even fought a shadow of a guy with pink hair once.

video; taking his life in his hands

[howcanihelp]

[ Stephanie opens her mouth to respond, then closes it, because she can't think of anything to say at first ]

That's... bizzare.

But also really beautiful, I'd imagine. Like flowers.

video; trust no donald

[clownshoes]

You know...he had cherry blossoms, I think. Definitely flower petals. It was really creepy, with all the pink.

[ The joy of Japanese symbolism. ]

video; really trust no npc healer at all, i've yet to find one that does their futzing job

[howcanihelp]

...Why did he have flower petals? What was he doing with them?

video; right??? it's 2015 why is ai still so bad

[clownshoes]

I dunno, they just appeared when he's move around...It was probably to be creepy. Why else would you mix pink and cherry blossoms?

video; I was promised hoverboards and holographic 3D movies, I at least deserve functional AI

[howcanihelp]

...Well, if one was attempting to be particularly feminine or romantic, I suppose. But that doesn't seem to apply here.

It is very strange. Magical flower petals, who does that?

[ Dorian probably would. ]

video; haunting ground took advantage of it's glitchy ai, using it the dog's bad behavior

[clownshoes]

What's romantic about pink and cherry blossoms? He was like the grim reaper.

video; Oooo, that's smart!

[howcanihelp]

Well, flowers and flower petals are generally considered romantic. You give your beloved roses, and so forth.

But as I said, I don't think it would apply in this case. He sounds... disturbing.

video; it was really cool, if frustrating at times

[clownshoes]

Where I'm from, pink is a death thing, mostly. He even had a scythe.

video;

[howcanihelp]

Oh. I had no idea, where I'm from it's mostly a... feminine color, often associate with romance.

That sounds very frightening, though. How did you defeat him?

video;

[clownshoes]

A lot of potions and a lot of fighting.

video;

[howcanihelp]

[ she chuckles a little ]

I know that feeling, very well.

video;

[clownshoes]

You fight?

video;

[howcanihelp]

Mm-hmm. I'm a... soldier, of sorts. Back home. We had to stop monsters from destroying the world.

video; OF COURSE someone could actually call sora a martyr/child soldier but details

[clownshoes]

Sounds like we're in the same boat! Well, I'm not a soldier, and it's darkness and monsters.

video; Stephanie only calls herself that because she ~technically~ is. Doesn't really think it tho.

[howcanihelp]

A very similar boat indeed.

[ headtilt ]

How old are you, friend?

video; sometimes i wish kh didn't hide the grimdark beneath the bright colors and disney 8(

[clownshoes]

I turned fifteen a few months ago!

video; But that's what makes it so horrifying in retrospect!

[howcanihelp]

[ Oh, he's so young. Not that she was hardly any older than him when she was conscripted by Duncan, but that's when she started. ]

I'm sorry you had to do that so young. It's not something anyone should expect children to do.

[ says the girl who looks like she could hardly be more than a year or so older than him. ]
