Romeo had been trying his best to keep his spirits up. The Midnight Game hadn't helped, it had just made him more sad and angry at the bad people. But he couldn't stay being sad and angry because if he did then the bad people would have won. He couldn't let them win. He might be small and weaker than the bad people but Psiionic had been right, he had lots of friends and they could help him!

[for Signless, room 2-08] He went to see Psiionic first, he hadn't seen him in a little while and wanted to see how he was anyways. He knocked on the door of room 2-08 hoping that he was in.

[for Terezi, forest floor near the staircase] After getting lost here with Ienzo Romeo never went out of sight of the stair case, where he could escape easily. But he had picked up a stick and was busy attacking nearby trees with it. He might not be strong but if he hit the bad people with sticks then it should hurt them a little bit and might save his friends.

[for Ventus, room 1-16] Romeo hadn't seen Ven in a while, but he found his room easily enough though he had never visited it before and knocked on the door. Ven had told him he would teach him magic, and seeing the little bit of magic that Ienzo had been learning Romeo thought it could help him beat the bad people who had brought them here.

[for Sora, floor twenty] He was wondering who else could help him, he had to get good really fast if he was going to have any chance of saving Molly and the others that the bad people had taken, he had his stick again and was practicing on imaginary enemies.

[for Link, the meadow] Romeo ran through the meadow Piccolo on his head. He spotted Link, the man who wasn't an elf but looked like one anyways. He waved and skipped over. "Hello mister Link!"

[for Frankin Stein, room 1-07] Romeo knocked on the door bravely. He had been told that there was a lady who lived in this room who would help him learn how to fight if he asked her. Even though she was an adult Romeo was sure she would be nice, he smiled brightly when the door was opened.

[anyone else, anywhere] [Romeo on any floors, either practicing fighting or just meeting people. If you play a character who looks like a warrior he might ask for help.]

Stein glanced around the room; well there was no one else there, so whoever was at the door would need to come back later. It's not like she ever got any visitors, after all.

So when she went to the door, she was expecting a 'Is [insert roommates' name here] here?' and only bothered answering to be polite.

"Yes?"

[myblueskies]

Romeo smiled politely, "Hello miss, is Miss Frankin Stein here?" He had never met her before so he didn't know what she looked like.

[madscientits]

She blinked a few times, before her hand, almost like it was working on its own, traveled up to the side of her head and started turning the screw embedded in her skull. "That would be me. Is there a particular reason you're seeking me out?" As the screw clicked back into place, she gazed at the boy hard, almost like she was looking through his skin at something else.

Which, in fact, she was. Stein just didn't want to be too careful before she let her guard down, and trusted her Soul Perception far more than she trusted her normal eyesight.

[myblueskies]

Romeo stared, though he wasn't meaning to be rude. He had just never seen anyone with a screw in their head before. "I want to learn to fight miss, to beat the baddies and everyone said you were a good fighter and I should ask you to help me." Piccolo crawled out of his coat to see what was going on before perching on Romeo's head.

[madscientits]

She stared down at him hard, bordering on a glare, before moving out of the doorway to let him in, her face softening.

"What do you know about fighting already? Anything?" While Stein didn't mind starting with a blank slate, her teaching methods were typically geared towards those who could at least handle getting punched a few times.

[myblueskies]

He watched her quietly not flinching away, though when he spoke he was extra polite. "Not much miss, I fought a bit for the Black Brothers against the Wolf Pack, but they were just kids, not much older than me. So I don't know anything about fighting adults and..." He frowned, "the bad people here are much more powerful than the Wolf Pack."

He can take a punch though, if anything it is his recklessness that brings him down.

[madscientits]

She was quiet for a moment, absorbing the information and thinking of where she should start with this one. After deciding, her hand wandered up and gave her screw a few turns. "Alright then, let's see what you can do."

With that, she threw a punch, though she was purposefully aiming slightly to the side of him, so even if it did connect, it wouldn't knock him out. Stein just thought that dodging an attack might be a good lesson one.

[myblueskies]

Romeo smiled and nodded, he blinked though when he saw her begin to punch. He jumped out the way, wobbling a little in his hurry. He clenched his fists though he didn't know if she wanted him to punch her back, and wasn't really all that good at punching.

"Did I do it right?"

[madscientits]

"Excellent," there's a slight swell of pride in her voice, the feeling of a teacher witnessing a student doing well. But that doesn't last too long, because she falls to the floor, sweeping out a leg to try and trip Romeo. Clearly he had some experience before, which in Stein's mind meant she didn't have to go easy on him.

[forceless]

Romeo would find that Ven wasn't in his room at the moment; but luckily, the blond was just returning, and now stood in the hallway behind him. "Hey, you need something?" He asked, wearing a cheerful smile on his face.

[myblueskies]

Romeo span round and smiled brightly. "Hello Ven!" He smiled, "Can you teach me magic?"

[forceless]

"Really?" Ven was a bit surprised; not so much at the request, but the fact that it was actually happening now.

"Well, OK!" He was by no means a teacher, but he had used magic his whole life, so how hard could it be? He crossed his arms and thought a moment. "Do you have anything you could use to cast magic-- Uh." Waaaiiit a moment. "Hey do you still have my keyblade, come to think?"

heh I totally forgot he had never returned it

[myblueskies]

Romeo smiled and nodded, he hoped that Ven didn't mind but he had offered. And Romeo would need all the skills he could learn in order to fight the Bad People. At the question though he blinked and then nodded.

"I forgot! It's in my trunk! I tried to give it back to you, but it wasn't you it was another Ventus and... I think I scared him but I thought it was you at first..." He pulled a face, "We can go and get it!"

i forgot until five minutes before i tagged this post, pfffttt

[forceless]

"Another Ventus?" He looked a bit confused at that. Maybe he meant Roxas?

Aaah, whatever. He shook his head and shrugged. "Sounds good! I can teach you with the Keyblade I'm using now, but it'll be easier if I have my own. But you can use the dummy keyblade I have if you don't have anything else you can use."

[myblueskies]

"Yes, he looked just like you but said I couldn't call him Ven, I had to call him Ventus instead." They arrived at his room and he grabbed Ven's keyblade out of the trunk before handing it to him.

"I don't think I have anything..." All that was in his trunk was a book and a few handmade puppets, the puppet theater lent against the wall but he didn't think that was magic either. Everything else he owned he was wearing. "Does it have to be magic or will any of these things do?"

[forceless]

Ven scrunched his face a bit at the thought. "Really? I always hated how long and and fancy my full name sounds," He commented off-handedly, thinking on it another moment before giving a shrug. Alternate universes, what can ya do.

"Something magic would be easier, but it doesn't have to be. I can use magic with my dummy keyblade just fine, and it's really just a carved piece of wood. Just as long as you're comfortable with it."

[myblueskies]

Romeo nodded, it had been strange but he hadn't seen the strange Ventus again after that one time. He guessed the bad people had taken him and that made him sad.

He looked in his trunk and pulled out a puppet that looked like a whale. Well... if you tilted your head and squinted and Romeo told you it was supposed to look like a whale. "Will this do?"

Oops, sorry. This got buried in my tabs DDDX

[benigncancer]

At the knock on his door, Signless set aside the book he was reading and answered it. His eyebrows quirked up at the sight of Romeo, and he smiled. "Hey there. Looking for Psi?"

No worries <3

[myblueskies]

Romeo blinked as a troll that was not Psiioniic opened the door. "Hello sir," he smiled and nodded. "Is he here?"

[benigncancer]

"Sorry, no, not at the moment," Signless said. Psiioniic had told him about Romeo and even pointed him out across a crowded room, so Signless knew who he was. He stuck out his hand in the human fashion. "I'm the Signless. Was he supposed to meet you here?"

[myblueskies]

Romeo didn't take the hand offered, instead his mouth dropped open. "You're the Signless?" Psiionic had told Romeo lots about the Signless as well, he was a great person! Romeo had forgotten that they lived in the same room!

"You are a hero aren't you? And you want to stop slavery, and make everyone free! And you are Psiioniic's moiry-rell!" He smiled again, so glad to meet Psiioniic's best friend!

[benigncancer]

Signless dropped his hand, startled, then he lowered his face to his own palm. Of course if Romeo had heard about him from Psiioniic, he would have that kind of overblown impression of him.

"Yup, that's me. A god made flesh. And you're Romeo, right? Psii's told me about you, too. You want to come in?"

[myblueskies]

Romeo smiled even more and nodded, "Can I?" He bounced into the room, "Did he really? Psi is a really good person sir, are you really a god? Do troll gods live with normal trolls?"

[benigncancer]

Oh god. "No, no, I'm really not a god," Signless said hastily. "I was just joking around. I'm just a normal troll who couldn't really keep his mouth shut, that's all."

[myblueskies]

"Oh." Romeo grinned he understood it was a joke. He had thought it was a little bit strange because Psiioniic would have probably told him if Signless was a god. "Psiioniic told me that you tried to make everyone free and make the world a nice place to live, you're going to beat all the bad people here right? I can help! I want to stop them from hurting people!"
