video (un: Ventus); backdated 5/28

[theoceanbetween]

[Yo, Reverie Terminal. You're treated to a video of nothing but ceiling and muffled noise for a moment, until Aqua twitches her wrist and lo and behold, it's a girl on-screen!

There's more silence as she seems...caught? On what to say. Or who to say it to. She turns to mumble something to someone off-screen, before sucking in a breath and going for it.]

Hey. I hope everyone can see this?

My name is Aqua, and I'm looking for a boy about [she gestures below her chin, though it won't be helpful at all from the network's vantage point] this tall named Ven, and a young man about my age with brown hair named Terra. And if you've seen any strange monsters around here, I'd like to know about that too.

[Aqua sweeps a hand through her bangs after, thinking again.]

...I've only just arrived here, but this place is confusing. More than any place I've been to before.

[Like, mostly because of the waking up after being knocked unconscious by nothing aspect? It's not as if Vanitas is around anymore to cheap-shot her.

HOLD ON, SPEAKING OF BEING UNCONSCIOUS!!!]

Oh, actually, um. [WELL.] Is it normal for our old clothes to be replaced by suits like this sometimes? There was no one around when I woke up...I feel like this needs to be addressed. Thank you.

[More stonewalling. With everything that's happened here, he doubts her dangers would be as recognizable as she thinks. But it doesn't seem like she'll give.]

...Mm.

[Cardboard cutouts, spitting orders to dead halls. The caretaker, ripping through bodies in vicious devotion to his task. Hank's sure he counted once, for those under evaluation.

Now, it's the humans who would be the most afraid.]

Doesn't everyone? [It's not quite joking.]

But, not like yours.
