[open] i don't know about fate
WHO: Sora and OPEN
WHERE: The train to New Tokyo and the Preserve dorms
WHEN: October 8th - 10th
WHAT: Checking in on people after waking up, and looking for things to do while cooped up in the dorms.
NOTES OR WARNINGS: N/A! Will edit if needed.
THE TRAIN TO NEW TOKYO
[ Sora comes to with a sudden gasp, almost sliding off of his seat on the train (though Riku's there to grab his shoulder and help him keep his balance, at least). It's disorienting to finally be awake after so much time spent in that Sleeping World, but Sora also recovers quicker than some of the other displaced might. Been there, done that, after all.
It doesn't take long for messages to start firing across the network, and soon enough Sora gathers that almost the entire group of displaced is now on this train. More than that, they've still got a good six or so hours before they reach New Tokyo, and he's got a large number of people he wants to check in on. After he's talked things over with Riku (there's no telling what woke them up, which is strange), he decides to stretch his legs.
He moves through the train cars, on the lookout for anyone who he recognizes. As soon as he spots them, he'll run over, either standing near them or taking a seat if there's one available. ]
Hey! You okay after all that?
THE PRESERVE DORMS
[ While Sora couldn't explain why everyone had suddenly been on the train with them, what he learns when they reach New Tokyo makes a little more sense. They're not here to help with a monster attack, but with a snowstorm. That must mean that what they did in the Sleeping version of this world actually had an effect on the real version. Fighting all of those monsters means that they'd reversed some of the damage!
It doesn't explain where the snowstorm came from, and he's not that thrilled to be facing freezing cold temperatures again after his time spent in Arendelle. Having to be cooped up until there's proper supplies provided to them isn't much better, though.
While he'd been able to explore to some extent in the dreams, it hadn't been real. To go from being stuck in the safehouse to being stuck in these dorms is rough for a restless young man used to running around all the time.
So he'll end up wandering the common areas, whether it's to scrounge up a snack or look for something else to keep his attention. If he comes across someone, he'll wave at them and move over. ]
Hey. Maybe we should play a game or something? [ Or, if they don't look like the game-playing type, it might be: ] So have you ever been stuck in weather like this before?
WILDCARD
[ I'd be happy to wildcard anything in these two settings, prior to the arrival log! Feel free to PM me or hit me up at
demonology if you want to discuss, but you're more than welcome to just toss something at me too. ]

no subject
[It's a joke, but only half of one. Markus could bend the manager's ear just enough to secure a seat for a friend, or a fellow displaced. He's certainly done it more than once in the past.
But for now, he lets the conversation shift in a more compelling direction. One informing him more about Sora's world, and as a result, perhaps further explaining the strange use of his power in that dreadful facility dreamscape.]
So can you tell me more about these "Keyblades"?
no subject
[ Sora doesn't see it as a joke at all. He and Riku may be stuck here for now, but he's going to take the opportunity to befriend as many of the Displaced as he can in the meantime. It's what he does, and it might also benefit them in the future.
It's no surprise that Markus is curious about the Keyblades, and Sora glances over as he considers where to start. ]
I guess you probably saw Riku's, huh? You may have already figured this out, but they're a special kind of weapon. Only certain people can use them, and they have a lot of different things they can do. We use them to fight Heartless and other creatures, but also to unlock things -- even things like the heart of a world.
[ So far, talking about this kind of thing has only confused people, but Sora doesn't mind trying to explain it anyway. He might not be the best at it, but he's making an attempt. ]
no subject
One of the more interesting concepts he’s heard of, but one he can just as easily accept as a reasonable explanation these days. He’s living proof, after all, of the power behind it.]
What does… a heart of a world entail? And why keep it locked?
[The android isn’t sure if he’s making explanations any easier, but it’s hard to guide with questions when the subject is so beyond his ken.]
no subject
It does help that Markus doesn't immediately jump to Sora being crazy or making this all up, but it would be kind of hard to do that when he saw some of it with his own eyes. ]
Well, in that case I was actually locking them. [ Lock, unlock, depending on what he's trying to do it could be either. ] Or locking the path to them, anyway. If the Heartless got to the heart of a world, they could drag it into darkness, so I had to lock the heart away from them to keep the world safe.
[ It's one of those things that probably doesn't make much more sense the more it's explained, and Sora smiles sheepishly as if to acknowledge that. ]
