Part of Me Is Fighting This, But Part of Me Is Gone

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

[The screen turns on with a view of a rail around a boat, two wide expanses of blue, the tip of Tidus' nose and the draping ends of his dark hair - and a reddish cat taking up most of the frame, lounging like the possessive queen she is on her human's chest. Dona the no-longer-kitten has apparently decided that the male of the household is the more worthy slave than the female, even following leading him down to the boat in the afternoon.]

[Tidus doesn't say anything at first, apparently gathering his thoughts, but eventually... eventually he starts speaking, though it's kind of disjointed.]

...Kinda strange thinking about it, right? We got the Shrines taken down - everyone's off on Terra, now. Guess we should know what happens pretty soon. Everything'll go back to the way it was.

[And he pauses again - those few people he's told, or who witnessed it, can probably figure out what caused that.]

Never thought I'd end up somewhere else again. But... even with all the craziness, it's been good here. So I just- Uhh, I guess...

...Thanks, guys.

[The screen snaps off. For a few seconds anyway, until it comes back on with Dona looking a little peeved because Tidus has shifted beneath her so his face can be better seen.]

Hey Tifa, you want me to teach you and Marlene and Denzel how to swim? Or, you know, any other friends of yours that don't know, I don't mind.

It sounds like this is it. Before you know it, us "sky people" will be heading back to where we belong. Can't believe I'm saying this, but this place was starting to grow on me. Minus the moogles. They could all disappear and I wouldn't mind, nosiree. They'd be alright if they didn't talk.

I've got nothing else to complain about. It's weird around these parts, but it was kinda nice while it lasted. ...Aw, who am I kidding, I'm just getting restless over here. This Terra business had better get sorted out soon.

[He mumbles the next bit, not really focusing on the screen now.]

I still think I hit my head hard on something running out of there. It would explain the damn moogles.

Hey there. How have you been holding up?

Raines. We need to talk.

A fleeting dream.. [video]

[marquisofthesky.livejournal.com]

[The backdrop of this video features the metropolis of Lindblum, the grand city ruled by Regent Cid Fabool. All this talk about the Sky People finally being returned to their worlds has left the Marquis feeling a tad bitter.

He is certainly hopeful for the prospect of being returned to Ivalice, but he is intensely worried about the friends and acquaintances that will be left behind. In a last effort to enjoy all of Gaia’s splendor, Halim made his way to Lindblum to catch one last performance of the famous play, I Want to Be Your Canary.]

I suppose I am one of the many who’ve flocked to Lindblum as of late in search of a performance or two. It seems that many of us Sky People are fond of the theaters here in this city. For those who wish to see some of Lord Avon’s classic plays upon the grand stage, I advise you to make way to Lindblum.

I am not one to give into hearsay, but I do believe our days are numbered, fellow Sky People. The political climate as of late is as stagnant as ever, and it seems we Sky People may have over stayed our welcome on Gaia. Nevertheless, I am grateful for the chance to experience a culture unlike my own. While I certainly long for the soil of my homeland, I shan’t forget the days I’ve spent here on Gaia.

[He smiles faintly.]

You could say that I’ve grown fond of this realm despite all the havoc that was caused during my stay here. Gaia is a fascinating world, and I shall miss every wondrous site here within this world.

[Halim let’s out a soft sigh.]

With that said, now would be the time for farewells to be said.

Answers, anyone? [Video]

[shurikenfemale.livejournal.com]

[After hearing from several sources that they weren't to stay very long in this new world, she is somewhat confused as to why she even arrived here in the first place. Talk about being thrown this way and that. But she has pressing matters and was seeking answers. A self-fashioned mission, if you will, to keep herself busy, make herself useful for something, even it was only for herself and not an order issued from a superior. For the time being, she only knew of one way to get concrete answers and quickly before gathering more information.]

Seeing as that I got several answers before through this phone, I wanted to know if anyone could help me. I've found this thing here, I'm not sure what it does and it looks like nothing I would find in Midgar.

[Cissnei holds up the thing. It looks like a cup with a base of bone or stone and a crystal perched precariously from the top, suspended in water. She holds it in both hands at the base, afraid to drop it. She couldn't figure out how exactly the water stayed in its place without any kind of barrier. Magic? She only knew of Materia that made magic, but this was the only explanation that seemed fit for the cup.]

If you know, give me a heads up or maybe we can meet to discuss about this. I'd rather talk in person, if you can, or a phone call.

[Action - Campfire Post I] [Locked to people in Terra]

[nomerevessel.livejournal.com]

[Night has fallen and a small fire flickers in the dark, the only bright thing in a landscape that's utterly black. Terra has no moon and if there are stars, one cannot tell since the sky is shrouded by clouds. Mikoto is sitting cross-legged by the fire, her hands tucked in her lap.

This is a great place to camp, right? It totally is. Let's toast some muffins and have a chat.]

[ooc: Here is your first weekly campfire post! It's completely optional: your character can be tucked up in bed if you like, but this is a good chance to have some interaction that doesn't involve being attacked by dragons. Mikoto is available if you want to ask questions, but please feel free to threadjack and create as many subthreads as you like.]

[Accidental Video] - Sleeping in Lindblum

[hi-no-dansu.livejournal.com]

[You see that skyphone there lying on the side of the bed? You those lovely luxurious apartments in the background? Do you see the sleeping face of a certain Figaro Prince who should be awake and isn't? You're getting a lovely view of the beginnings of a new beard as well, aren't you lucky?

More importantly, do you hear all that loud snoring?

Somebody should wake him up. As rudely as possible.]
