Sure have been a bunch of people going back to sleep lately, huh.

[Sora's usually a pretty upbeat kind of kid, and he's trying to not to look glum as he sits in a notably empty shack in Wyver.]

Sorry, I know a lot of people have already said that, I don't wanna sound like a broken record or anything. If anyone's been trying to get hold of Terra lately, he went back to sleep and it doesn't look like he's planning on waking up again anytime soon.

[That had been a sad discovery. While he's glad his new friend doesn't have to be awake and missing his friends anymore, it doesn't mean Sora doesn't miss him. He hasn't know him for very long, but in that short time he had been a good friend.

And on that thought... he takes a deep breath before adding:]


And Riku's sleeping again too, but I'm sure he's gonna wake up again real soon. You know Riku, he's never out of the picture for too long! He'll be awake again before anyone even misses him.

[Well that's just a lie, Sora misses him already.]

I just... y'know. Thought people should know.

[And then he forces a big smile onto his face as if he's not feeling completely alone and sad and tries to change the subject. Distraction tactic? What distraction tactic.]

Hey, it's not long to go 'til Halloween! Does anyone know where to get a good pumpkin from? It's not a proper Halloween without a pumpkin!

Riku's asleep?

[Roxas doesn't know how to feel about that.]

Wait, does that mean you're alone there?
pullsheavendown: (※ give me strength to be the truth)

[personal profile] pullsheavendown 2018-10-21 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Five--

How come you didn't say anything?

[He knows it's not okay. He knows what it's like to lose a best friend.]
pullsheavendown: (※ lost in thought)

[personal profile] pullsheavendown 2018-10-21 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. He probably will.

[Roxas has no idea. And if Riku went to sleep not long ago, can it be a good thing for him to be asleep again? Why is Roxas asking himself questions he has no way of answering?]

Sorry, though. That stinks for you.
pullsheavendown: (※ held in silence)

[personal profile] pullsheavendown 2018-10-21 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Kairi, who's asleep. At best he figures, she's having good dreams. At worst, she's not dreaming much of anything. Roxas knows better than maybe anyone that living your life asleep isn't that great.

But he won't say any of that, because he cares about Sora.]


You gonna stick around Wyver?

Halloween?

[ alas, that holiday isn't as widely celebrated in the 24th century as it was a couple hundred years ago. ]
directives: (➣ thirteen.)

[personal profile] directives 2018-10-24 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
[ there's something about the tradition that sounds vaguely familiar, but it's not ringing any solid enough sounding bells for her to find it recognizable. ]

I suppose not. Or if we did, it went the way of the dinosaurs some time ago. [ which was very much a possibility. there's dozens upon dozens of traditions that earth observed in the days prior to the third world war that were no longer celebrated in the centuries that followed. ]
directives: (Default)

[personal profile] directives 2018-10-28 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry, that's not ringing any bells for me.

[ though it sounds like something that belongs in a children's holonovel of sorts, but she isn't going to insult this person by voicing that. ]
directives: (➣ twenty-eight.)

[personal profile] directives 2018-11-01 02:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[ a shake of her head, shrug of her shoulders. ]

Is this something that's celebrated on Earth?

I'd not considered someone ought to tell others so publicly about a wave of returns to stasis...but now that you have, I see why perhaps one should.

[Just because she knows everyone is gone doesn't mean the rest of the refugees will automatically know, even this long after it happened.]

Offering condolences seems inappropriate. It isn't as though they've died.
baldesion: (observing)

[personal profile] baldesion 2018-10-23 06:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Those were my condolences. To you.

[And they felt wrong but also like the best approximation she could manage of some feeling closer to the truth. It's been a difficult moon all 'round.]

And my realization that keeping such matters largely to myself might only result in further pain for others, later.
baldesion: (most displeased)

[personal profile] baldesion 2018-10-25 01:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Besides everyone I was living with?

[That was bitter and made to sting and she kind of regrets that? A little bit? But it's too late now and she makes a point of not saying things she doesn't mean.]

No, not really, or I haven't heard about them yet.
baldesion: (a bit worried)

[personal profile] baldesion 2018-10-26 02:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[Gods, she can practically feel it through the watch, with that expression. Krile sighs.]

I shall have to be, shan't I? [She's done all right so far...and has told no one else, really, and the house is dreadfully large and empty.] It isn't as though I can demand them back. Nor would I want to, if they've been returned to stasis to address something debilitating.

It's good to keep tabs on the ones you know.

[ this kid seems young, but dealing with it. this is scotty being encouraging, i guess? ]

I keep tabs on my crewmates, too.

[ a beat. his expression shifts to something a little easier. ]

Aye, and if I see a pumpkin I'll let you know. You carve yourself?

[ halloween isn't a big thing anymore where he's from, not really, but he knows what it is and would probably get a kick out of pumpkin carving. ]
kludging: (write it cut it paste it save it)

[personal profile] kludging 2018-10-27 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure there are other people here that are just as excited about it, it's just a matter of finding them. Have you ever thought of carving something else? Anything comparable. Necessity is the mother of invention, after all.

[ as for the question, it takes a lot for scotty to not laugh. he really, really wants to tell this kid that he's a pirate, but lying isn't for the best. besides, he's met some space pirates. that's not him.

sorry to disappoint, kid. ]


Ah... More of a space explorer, really. Not so much with the pirating. [ a pause. ] Do you meet many pirates?
