[This should be coming from XIII, but recent shenanigans have rendered his username unintelligible. But he's on video, so it's not like he's trying to hide his identity. Those who have already met Roxas (or Axel or Riku) may recognize the black coat, but he's picked up a warm scarf to go with it, and a knit beanie cap is flattening some of his hair spikes.]
...hi. I'm Roxas. I don't know if we're supposed to introduce ourselves—I've never used one of these things before—but that's me.
[He gives a little wave.]
There's something I wanted to know. Have any of you ever been to other worlds before? I have, but I'm trying to figure out what makes this one so different. It's not just that it's a refuge from the storm or that time's frozen in other parts of it. Something about this place affects things people can do. My friend and I know a special way of getting around quick—it's not really magic, but kind of like it, I guess? Except it only takes us maybe a block now.
And there's something else I've always been able to do, a thing I can summon, except now I can't and I try and I try but it just doesn't—
[As he speaks, he's shaking his left hand in frustration when suddenly there's a pop and a black flash and suddenly a Keyblade can be partially seen at the bottom of the screen.]
Uh. Never mind about that last part? But I'd still like to know about the rest.

[He doesn't understand the second part so well,, but the first...? Yeah. He gets it. The sun's warmth is a familiar thing, even if it comes at the end of the day.]
Sorry you can't feel it here. That sounds worse than still being able to do things but only half as well.
Crawls back to tags after con hell
She smiles,] There's no need to apologize. It's strange, actually. I felt it once, right after I woke up from resting in stasis, so surely it's still there somewhere.
[At least the optimism isn't forced.]

Your keyblade? Is that the weapon you summoned earlier? [The one he's still holding in his hand(?). She'd wanted to ask about that, eventually.]
no subject
[The camera angle shifts wonkily for a moment.]
Sorry, I'd show you but I can't do it without dropping this.
no subject
[Using two weapons at once. The nature of the paladin's bayard made dual wielding not likely but even if they could, Keith was the only one among them who was ambidextrous enough to even try it.
She leans in closer to the screen, clearly interested,]
Where are they summoned from? Are they stored somewhere... on you?
no subject
You know? I don't know where they go when I'm not wielding them. Just...away somewhere. And only I can call them.
no subject
It may be something like my Bayard. [And video makes it easy to demonstrate, though the angling is a little awkward, pointed down near her hip, where her free hand hovers. There's a flash of light that seems to originate from her armor
(which she is conveniently wearing for the sake of this thread)and when the light fades, in her hand is what looks like the handle of a weapon, from it extends a whip of light, that turns it from a simple handle into a fully-realized weapon. The camera shifts, dizzyingly back to her face.]It's a combination of magic and technology infused in the armor. It could be the same for you?
[Not that he's... wearing armor. But magic is still an option!]
no subject
[It would never be mistaken for a Keyblade. Despite that, Roxas thinks he can see the similarity. Or feel it.]
Honestly, I don't really know how the Keyblade works. But that sounds right. Magic is definitely part of it.
