1st Rockslide : Video

[rockbreakinandrollin]

[There's a very... interesting looking young man on the network tonight, standing with a Black Guilmon next to him. They're fiddling with the D-Comm, and arguing about it.]

--know what I’m doing, I’m not completely incompetent.

No, just mostly.

Would it kill you be a little nicer to me, Iwa? You’re the one who said we’re partners.

... it’s on.

What? … oh. Uh.

[He steps back a ways, making his odd clothing and large weapon in his hand easier to see. He rubs the back of his neck awkwardly.]

My name is Terra. I’m looking for some people. Their names are Aqua and Ventus-- well, Ven. He goes by Ven. They might be in trouble... injured... if they're here, I really need to find them...

Do you always ramble like this?

… [ a sharp sigh ] I need to find them. They might be in trouble. Any information is appreciated. Thanks.

[ before any more bickering can be heard, Terra moves closer and shuts the comm off ]

...

Oh dear.

[rockbreakinandrollin]

[... talking horse.

Okay. Honestly. Not the strangest thing he's ever seen.]

.. is... something wrong?

[savesnine]

No, no it's absolutely nothing. Nothing's wrong. You're dazed and confused and I should be nice to you and not hypercritical.

[rockbreakinandrollin]

... why would you be hypercritical?

[savesnine]

N-No reason at all...

...You're not fooling anybody.

[sliceswithawing]

Hello...Terra?

[Riku is slightly confused as he remembers Terra from all those years ago...]

[rockbreakinandrollin]

She really isn't, is she?

[Terra scowls]

If you've got something to say, say it. I'm sorry but I don't have time for games.

[rockbreakinandrollin]

Uh. Hello. Who are--

... [wait. he looks... familiar.]

Riku?!

[sliceswithawing]

[Nods]

You haven't changed at all...

[WTF even Sora grew when he was asleep...is this some weird trick by the world...or a test...or...something? The Organization is dead still, right?]

[savesnine]

...

Your shirt is far too tight, what is with the cross suspenders, the armor you're wearing is completely out of place, the belt is not flattering at all and I can't even tell if you're wearing one skirt or two.

Also your boots are ugly.

[rockbreakinandrollin]

You... did. A lot.

Friend of yours, big pants?

[Terra is too confused to even notice the random nickname]

S... sorta... [slow blink] Riku, how old are you now?

[rockbreakinandrollin]

I--... what? Why are my clothes that important? And it's a hakama, not a skirt...

Ohhh you're harsh, pony. I like you!

Iwa...

What?

[sliceswithawing]

I'm 17 now...

Oi! Iwa!?

[Looks at his partner. Well at least if his partner knows Terra's then he won't be constantly going on about...whatever the hell he's been talking about for the past few hours. What exactly is Silent Hill? And for that matter, what is a PS Vita? Apparently its bad, whatever it is.]

Oh, this is Mugen...he's my partner...apparently.

Hey you poor excuse for a main character! I never asked to be your partner! I don't even get a main and yet Iwa does!? This is bullshit!

[Line face...]

[rockbreakinandrollin]

... twelve years. I don't even know how that's possible.

Mugen! [Iwa actually looks happy for more than two seconds. Be afraid.] Hey, not my fault! You really think I wanna be saddled with big pants here? Go complain to the God Tree, not me!

... I have no idea what they're going on about, either.

[sliceswithawing]

I think I will go complain! Who does he think he is, giving me some secondary!?

...12 years, but then you're from the time that I met you? Sora and I are supposed to be helping to find you and fight Xehanort after we pass our Master Mark exams.

[rockbreakinandrollin]

This is just proof that all those years of thinking you're all that and a bag of pop rocks was just wishful thinking.

... find me?

[Oh hell. Damnit, Xehanort. Damnit all. Terra puts a hand over his face, groaning.]

I just met you... less than a day ago. What the hell is going on here?!

Ohhh... looks like some one is getting spoilers.

Iwa, please, don't...

[sliceswithawing]

[Crosses his arms, thinking.]

Well it really was over 12 years ago for me...the King still isn't sure where you are though. He knows where Master Aqua is, and has a good idea of where Ventus is though.

[rockbreakinandrollin]

Aqua... and Ven... so they--...

[Terra trails off, shaking his head slowly]

Where are you right now?

[sliceswithawing]

[Going to let that go for now.]

I'm someplace called Neon City.

[rockbreakinandrollin]

[Give him a little while, Riku. He needs to get his head on straight before he talks about it.]

Neon City?

Oh, good, you're in civilization! Gods, I hate Chess Kingdom. Everyone here is so stuck up. Can we go? Please?

You know where it is?

Wow, you really do have rocks for brains, doncha? ... oh don't give that look. We'll go, we'll go! Hey! Mugen! Keep him there, wouldya? We're on our way.

[sliceswithawing]

[Groans] Fine...I'll trade ya' Keybladers? Please?

[Trying really hard not to be annoyed with you Mugen, its not really working.]

[rockbreakinandrollin]

I'm not being traded.

Whatever. See you in a few.

[sliceswithawing]

[Pouts] Fine...see ya.

[Sighs]

[savesnine]

Making a good appearance is always important! It gives your first impression to the world around you, wherever you many be. It shows that you have pride in yourself and your capabilities. It makes you approachable, open, and allows you to bring many new friends into your life.

[rockbreakinandrollin]

[At this point Iwa is in the background, actually on her back laughing, barking something about 'she told you, Final Fantasy reject!'

Terra? Does not look amused.]

I don't have time for this... I look fine. Please, just tell me if you've seen my friends? One's younger than me, blonde hair, blue eyes, goes by Ven. Aqua has blue hair, blue eyes and is the same age as me. It's really important that I find them both!

[Iwa actually shuts up at that, because Terra's voice is starting to sound desperate and upset.]

... you're really worried about them, aren't you?

Yes!
