This is Lightning; leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.
[ooc: Good for IC plotting or OOC contact if you can't nab me anywhere else. Just specify if IC or OOC, and what format for IC communication.]

Hey, Light. Mind if we talk a bit?
[There's a slight pause, as Laguna's just getting a bit more comfy in reality. Even though he knows, like, she might not answer for a bit. He is calling in the middle of the night, after all.]
I'm remembering stuff about the Conflict.
[audio]
Date: 2013-01-24 11:29 pm (UTC)What kind of things are you remembering?
[audio]
Date: 2013-01-25 12:16 am (UTC)Well, a bit of everything. But it's all kind of fuzzed, too. So, could you help me out a bit?
[audio]
Date: 2013-01-25 12:19 am (UTC)I can try. Still need to know what you do remember, though. There's a lot to go over if I have to start from the beginning.
[audio]
Date: 2013-01-25 08:41 am (UTC)The first thing I remembered was actually a few days ago - it was kinda fragmented, though, so I didn't think to call you. I was sitting there with Elle [the munna], when she coughed up some Dream Mist - and I saw myself with our group. We were lost - and you guys were blaming me.
[aw he remembers the start of the gameplay :3] But then, these strange things - Manicures? I think that's what they were. [laguna srsly] Anyhow, they all were appearing, and some other guys were there - can't really remember who - and me and Vaan fled together. Don't really remember much from after that - I mean, I met with the Cloud of Darkness - but it's a big blank until...
[He goes silent for a few moments.]
Until we tried to seal all the manicures away, and we beat those six for it. I remember passing out at the end, at least.
[There's a bit more silence.]
Don't really remember much else. I mean, I kinda remember something else? I'd given this guy a rose, and me and Squall had a bit of a chat... but that's really it.
[spoilers: he doesn't even remember the gods in play
he doesn't even really remember most of the names of other warriors
it's very patchy due to a curious munna eating away his strange dreams]
[audio]
Date: 2013-01-25 07:53 pm (UTC)She doesn't know the whole story of what happened to him, but it seems he doesn't either. Patchy memories are better than none, but...]
Manikins, Laguna. They were called Manikins. [Not manicures. Even she knows what those are.] They were our enemies in what was called the Conflict. Some war between gods that wasn't ever going to end. We got dragged into it, with our memories as the price. You, me, Vaan, Yuna, Tifa, and Kain.
[Some of whom she's never seen again. Hell, Laguna's been here twice already! But there's one last thing she needs to tell him.]
And we didn't pass out after sealing them away. We died.
[Completely. Serious. Tone. She wishes she was kidding.]
[audio]
Date: 2013-01-26 03:18 am (UTC)I'm dead? That doesn't make sense - I remember sealing away the Sorceress just before coming here... but maybe I went to the Conflict straight after. But then, wouldn't I have been injured when I got here? And I know what it's like being injured - the only strange thing about arriving was 'Mum'.
[...His tone suddenly sounds defeated, though, as he mutters a single word.]
Ellone...
[He's quiet again. If he's dead... who'd look after her? Maybe he'll need to ask the network about it. But, for now, he let out a bit of a sigh.]
So, if we happened to find a way out of here, we'd just be stranded and dead?
[audio]
Date: 2013-01-26 04:18 am (UTC)Maybe. I don't know. Kain came and went a while ago, but he hasn't come back to tell me if we actually survive or not. [She wants to hope they do. Somehow. But, in all honesty...] I don't know where we'll go if we ever leave here.
[audio] also i am loving this thread btw
Date: 2013-01-26 06:25 am (UTC)It's just like back then, I guess. Nobody knows if they'll stay or go - or survive, but we can't help but befriend them. I just hope Kain's still alive out there - he was a strange guy, but he was our ally.
But... hmm. If we don't know what will happen, there's still a chance everything works out.
[Even if he doesn't really wanna risk it. Maybe if he's dead, if he just stays here, he'll find a way to return to life.]
[audio] as am I~ She finally gets to talk about this~!
Date: 2013-01-26 07:05 am (UTC)He had a funny way of showing it at first. [Snort. Knocking out all their allies and not telling the rest of them. Funny way to show anybody they care. But still..]
Maybe it will, maybe it won't. Won't know until it happens. But it's not like thinking about it's going to do us any good. [if shrugs were audible, one would go here.] We should just focus on what we have here for now. Deal with the rest as it comes. There's nothing else we can do about what happened back there from this world.
[She's had to convince herself of that over the past...Etro. Almost two years. Two years dead and this is the first time she's really talked about it. Feels...strange.]
[audio] oh yeah i added you to my AIM - i'm vinciolol, just so you know
Date: 2013-01-26 07:30 am (UTC)He's only acting, really, because he doesn't want Wooper crying either. Primo is a bit of a crybaby, though Laguna has a soft spot for babies.]
Well, not everybody can just sit down and talk about their ideas and problems, right? He was just one of those guys.
[Normally, he'd probably give a goofy grin here, try and give a laugh - but, you know, audio and also Laguna's not feeling himself. In reality, he's sitting down even, looking just so disturbed. Light's had time to think about this, and he hasn't. It's almost like... it's almost like he's choosing his words carefully!]
Yeah, guess there's no point in worrying. But at the same time? I don't think I'll be able to settle into here for a while. Still feels like there's a lot I've got to do back home - even if I'm dead.
[
And then Laguna was an unsent. And it was the best president Esthar ever had.]So, I guess I can't help but think about it, Light.
[...]
You haven't kept this a secret for all this time, have you?
[audio] duly noted~ :3 I'll get on eventually.
Date: 2013-01-26 07:58 am (UTC)And while she knows what Laguna means about having things to do back home, state of life be damned, she doesn't respond to that. Even now, the issue's a bit too fresh to poke at. Maybe later, when she doesn't have to explain half of what went wrong back there.]
I talked to a couple people about it. Never got this far into explaining it with them. [Leon. Hope. Love and brother. Family. Etro she misses them.] They're both gone now, so I guess I have kept it a secret. Nobody else here knows. Not even Cecil, and he was fighting with us until Kain put him down.
[Or the Warrior of Light did it, but heck if it made a difference at the time.]
[audio] yay we can get to know each other
Date: 2013-01-26 08:30 am (UTC)Well... [...Man, he's at a bit of a loss for words, as he's just thinking a lot.] Must feel good to have somebody here who knows, right? So you don't need to do all the talking and explaining.
[...Pause.]
Kiros always told me I was a good listener - a good guy to hear everybody's problems. I mean, he mentioned I was really good around kids, mostly, and I'd make things worse sometimes - but if you need to talk, you know? I'll try to not vanish, Light. I've got people here who depend on me [he promised his new daughers he wouldn't leave them, after all] - and Pokemon, too!
[this is him trying to comfort you, lightning
also himself, especially himself]
:3 sounds good~
Date: 2013-01-26 08:36 pm (UTC)Still, he doesn't have to hear that from her, so she makes a soft 'hmm' sound.]
I'll remember that. Thanks. [She may not take him up on the offer, but...he's not a bad person, really. Just a bit scattered and easily lost. She does still remember that too, after all.]
haha and then i decided i'd keep on tagging this because why the heck not--
Date: 2013-01-29 07:59 am (UTC)But maybe Light can help him more with other things. His Pokemon do have a few issues, after all... and she's an experienced trainer... he looks to Primo, the shiny whimpering Wooper, as he speaks.
and now time for less srs time]Hey, while I have you - mind if I ask you a few more questions about this place? You know, since we know each other.
:3 threads are gooood.
Date: 2013-01-29 08:02 pm (UTC)Go ahead. I'll tell you what I can.
[She's been here longer and is experienced, sure, but she's not someone who knows everything. There are some things beyond her.]
