[Like a few people, Tidus isn't too happy to have ended up where he did. This place ranked pretty low on his Favorite Memories of Spira list, after all. But unlike other people, he sounds downright annoyed by it.]

Okay, whatever's doing this, it's not funny! Knock it off al- whoa!

[The camera shakes wildly for a second as Tidus throws his body weight to one side to not miss the turn that's going to save him from plunging off the end of the runway before straightening out. Even worse, he got dropped in the middle of the maze and not the beginning - he couldn't even backtrack out the easy way, and has to ride everything all the way to the bottom working on memories that are now closing on two years old.]

Come on, this is nuts! I don't care if it's Garland or Lufene or whatever, just leave us alone so we can liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive!

[...He missed the second turn, though.]

Tidus! Where are you?

[A couple seconds later, the feed reestablishes itself as Tidus is transported back to the beginning of the sliding maze, groaning in frustration.]

Cloister of Trials in Bevelle - worst one ever, seriously.

[Terra winces.]

Why are we taken to such unpleasant places? What's the point of this?

[And she has reason to complain too, since Kefka's Tower is seen all around her.]

[Yeah, he can definitely understand that. Tidus is still using his body as the control for the technological glyph he's riding around, picking up spheres and putting them down in various places.]

I don't know, but whatever it is, it sucks.

[Terra bites her lip.]

I...need to see if he's here. I don't want him surprising us in Gaia.

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

[He sighs, although his voice is filled with concern.]

You gonna be okay?

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

If I can get to the bottom of this thing I can get out... I think. Kinda got dragged out by soldiers last time and thrown in a cage.

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

[He's rubbing his temples at you Tidus.]

So you're saying you don't know how to get out, right?

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

I was dragged out of here unconscious for violating the sanctity of the precepts or something like that. But they got us back up somehow, so there's gotta be a way out, and I'm gonna find it.

Tidus, are you well?

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

Ask me after I stop falling off this thing and maybe it'll be better. Man, why this thing- Damnit! [And another wrench to the side to turn left into a small alcove.]

[He's frowning as he watches. What kind of places does your world have, Tidus.]

Are you not able to simply leave it?

Re: [Video]

[Very, very weird places, Light.]

It's a maze - summoners and guardians have to go through the Trials to reach the Fayth, then convince the Fayth to give them the Aeon. They dropped me right in the middle of the freaking worst maze ever made.

Tidus?

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

[WHAM. Just a second Squall, he just fell off again.]

[knighted-lion.livejournal.com]

I really, really hate this place.

[Sorry, he had to pull himself upright on the floaty glyph again.]

[Video]

[heartofheaven.livejournal.com]

Tidus? Are you okay?

[Video]

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

[He sounds a little more pissed off than usual.]

Define "okay" and maybe I can tell you.

[Video]

[heartofheaven.livejournal.com]

Are you hurt?

[Video]

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

Not yet, but it's gonna take me awhile to get out of here.

[If you can make sense of the tiny picture on your video Tifa, you might actually be a step ahead of him. The damn thing is even worse in person.]

[Come on Firion, come ride the glowy glyphs with him!]

Cloister of Trials, the place where we got arrested. I gotta get to the bottom before I can go up again.

[Video]

[waterblade.livejournal.com]

I don't know, I just woke up here in the Trials. It's been awhile, I can't remember every turn!

[At that moment he's approaching a wall and taking one glowing sphere from it, and slotting another in its place.]

Man how in the hell could Bevelle have gone on and on about machina being bad when they've got all this stuff...
