First Flower

[gimmiemyflower]

I'm not sure if this'll work, but...I'll just speak out to anyone here that's listening. If you can hear me, please respond!

And if you can respond, please tell me who you are and what's the last thing you remember?

This is Kairi, and the last thing I remember was the seven of us were all fighting against Xehanort. We...weren't doing as well as we'd hoped, and the worlds were falling apart...then I remember a whole lot of darkness, and then I was here.

Then I guess we're the same. [She's just trying to put things together, but it seems like Xion is even moreso.]

I think we're in Sora's heart. It...feels a lot the same as last time.

Riku and Lea found his platform, too. But he's not there.

[ Well, that's an awkward way to phrase things, Kairi. ...Don't mind the bit of a pause her before Xion, herself, gets her thoughts back in order. ]

...That's what I thought, too. But... How can so many people be... here? [ It doesn't really seem strange that Sora wouldn't be there... especially if they're inside him. ]

[gimmiemyflower]

[She realizes a little too late how awkward that probably sounded, and then in turn feels a little embarrassed for it.]

So it isn't just me. [That's both reassuring and a little bit sad.]

I don't know...that's the part that's got me worried. I mean, it seems like people I never even met are here, too...

[memoryreprieved]

[ Don't worry about it, Kairi. She is expecting all kinds of awkward between them. Still... ]

Yeah... I- There's people I haven't met... either.

But... Maybe Sora did. [ From her inadvertent paging through his memories... that's definitely something she noticed. Just... how many people Sora met. Maybe those meetings... Maybe they had something to do with this? ]

[gimmiemyflower]

[It'll probably take a little bit of time before all the awkward gets worked out, but she hopes it does...]

Maybe so...I guess I'd just have to ask and make sure. [If it's all people and places he's met, it would make sense. If not...there would definitely be something more at work here.] It seems like so far everyone's just as confused as we are...

[memoryreprieved]

It seems so... [ Though granted, she's not exactly spoken to a lot of people around these... heart hotel parts. ]

Just... how many people have you met here?

[gimmiemyflower]

I've seen Riku and Lea...and, um, 'talked' to a bunch of others. Some of them are people I recognize, like Tidus...but some I don't at all.

I think there's even worlds here.

[memoryreprieved]

Worlds? But how can worlds be here? [ That sounds pretty crazy, even for her. Let's take a moment to ignore how weird the Organization was technically, shall we? ]

[gimmiemyflower]

I'm not sure. [It's clear from her tone that that part is kind of worrying her, too.] I just know we went looking around, and found some. I don't think it's just a memory of the world either, since there's no people in them.

[memoryreprieved]

No one at all? But if they're not a memory, how could... [ No, perhaps it made a little sense. But then it didn't... at all. ] I don't really get it... but. I'm- going to look around. [ There had to be a reason for all this. Of that, she was certain... ]

[gimmiemyflower]

I'm not sure... [That's a question they need an answer to sooner rather than later.]

[And that sounds like a good idea for now.] All right. I think I'll go looking, too.
