[The CAT clicks on--for a moment, there is the sound of rustling, and then a distinct click of something being set down.]

So this thing is used to broadcast to other people? ...huh. Could be useful.

[The voice is young, but when Riku addresses the CAT properly, there's no shortage of self-assuredness there.]

So this place is called Luministi, right? What sort of a place is it? And why am I here, anyways? If this is Maleficent's idea of a joke...

Anybody out there?

...Better yet, has anybody out there heard of a girl named Kairi? I've been looking for her.

[!!!!!!! is it really him? he looks so much younger. well, no matter.

naminé is happy. and when her face appears on the screen of riku's CAT, it's written all over her face.]

Riku! Did you just get here? [so much relief. he's okay! she smiles as reassuringly as possible.]

Maleficent's not here. You don't need to worry.

That's right. It's… [there's a distinct pause] strange. A bit of a mystery, really.

I think I've heard the name, but I don't believe she's here.

[!!!

That's --

Is it really him? Is he staying this time? Xion has seen glimpses of him in Luministi in the past, but then he would just... disappear. This... isn't going to be like those times, is it?]

Ri-Riku? You're here?

[Unfortunately for her... she isn't thinking, just like when Naminé arrived. She looks like Sora; she sounds like Sora... and what she said is Sora-like, too.]

[It's kind of nice to hear this person's confidence.]

Hello! I'm out here! Fuu Hououji; nice to meet you. I'm very sorry to say that I haven't heard of Kairi. And as for what kind of place this is, it will take some time to explain it, I'm afraid.

[...oh goodness, why is it always children!? Sophie is definitely not in the mood]

[sourly] It's a town that traps people in it and causes all manner of strange things to happen while they're here.

[but she pauses at the mention of Kairi, thinking] I...I'm not sure if I've heard that name before. [it's vaguely familiar, at the least] But I do know she's not here, so there's no need to worry for the moment. [she just hopes Riku isn't going to be another Flynn and insist on running about searching for someone who's not here]

My name is Sophie. And you?
