[Sounds of panting and fear can be heard in his voice]

I-Irvine Kinneas, SeeD reporting

Rinoa? Squall? Quistis?

Please, please respond.

Irvine? What's wrong? Did something happen?

[Quistis is obviously worried-- she has never heard Irvine sound like this.]

[voice]

[ladiesmanirvine.livejournal.com]

[A sigh of relief]

Nevermind what happened to me, are you okay? You're not hurt or anything are you?

[voice]

[herownhero.livejournal.com]

[A pause. She's rather shaken up by her own Memoria experience, but decides not to voice her thoughts.]

I'm fine. Are you sure you're alright?

[voice]

[ladiesmanirvine.livejournal.com]

I'll be okay

Just a really sick joke this place played on me.

[voice]

[herownhero.livejournal.com]

It seems like Memoria is getting to all of us. It really is a nasty thing to be experiencing, but just... remember it isn't real.

[Not anymore, anyways.]

[voice]

[A small laugh]

Tell yourself that when you see a fire burning right in front of you, hear screaming people in pain, and smell burning flesh.

I know it isn't real, but this place is close enough to make me believe it is.

[ladiesmanirvine.livejournal.com]

Selphie!

Please tell me you're alright, just, just tell me you're okay!

[voice]

Irvine? What is it?

[ladiesmanirvine.livejournal.com]

[Silence on the other end, he's just relieved right now]

...

[Panicky Irvine is calming down]

Rinoa? [A sigh] Are you okay?

[ladiesmanirvine.livejournal.com]

Sorry, it's just...I had a bad experience with this place.

I just needed to make sure you all were alright.

[A small soft chuckle] Guess I was just worried.

[voice]

[livelyangel.livejournal.com]

No, I'm not. I hate this place.

But you sounded terrified.

[ladiesmanirvine.livejournal.com]

[Silence]

I saw all of you...die...screaming in pain. And I was weak...I couldn't...I couldn't do anything to stop it.

I...I heard you [Cuts off because he's reminded by that little horrific episode again]

[voice]

[ladiesmanirvine.livejournal.com]

[A small little laugh] You and me both Rin.

I'm alright now, it's just...I needed to make sure you guys were...alive.

[voice]

[livelyangel.livejournal.com]

...Did you see us die?

[voice]

[ladiesmanirvine.livejournal.com]

[Silence on the line]

Yea

[ladiesmanirvine.livejournal.com]

I know, I know...it's just...

It felt so real...and I couldn't do anything.

I want to get out of here.

[Video is on, Irvine is looking like crap]

Selph...are you sure you're okay? [Looking at the screen, just sympathetic]

[ audio ]

[bastard.livejournal.com]

[How did this guy make SeeD when Seifer didn't? Really]

Relax. None of it's real, you know.

[ audio ]

[ladiesmanirvine.livejournal.com]

[Easy Seifer, he has the bigger penis and gets more ladies]

I know...it just feels like it is...all too well.

[ audio ]

[bastard.livejournal.com]

[Keep dreaming, cowboy. Last time Seifer tries to be semi-decent to you]

Keep babbling about it, then--because that'll help you put it behind you.

[Sarcasm what]

[ladiesmanirvine.livejournal.com]

Selphie?

[Worried Irvine is looking at you]

[ audio ]

[ladiesmanirvine.livejournal.com]

[A low grumble, then a sigh]

You're right, it isn't real so I should stop thinking like it is.

[ audio ]

[bastard.livejournal.com]

[No shit, Sherlock. Wonder where you got that advice]

Do you know where you are? I can't find myself on this thing, let alone anyone else.

[voice]

[livelyangel.livejournal.com]

It wasn't real. It's not gonna happen. It won't.
