towerofanimus | Open sesame~

Characters: Roxas, his roomies, and anyone else who pokes their head in.
Setting: Room 1-16.
Format: Starting prose, matching you~
Summary: Hey, there's a new, occupied room on the floor- and it seems to be full of...yawning?
Warnings: Rox is the master of being oblivious. Also, Ven may potentially threadhop any comment thread on this entry, fair warning ~~because Plus is all skurred to post her own entry trololololo~~.

It took him quite a moment to realize he was awake in the proper sense of the word, really. He sure didn't feel it, and frankly was between drowsy and stiff, a deep ache setting in his muscles. It only took a few moments to sort of remember why- he'd fallen off the tower, hadn't he...? Oh damn, oh geez- 'Am I alive...?' The boy opened his eyes sluggishly, taking in the sight of a stark white ceiling. Took a deep breath. Yep, alive. Then, when he felt like he could move...rolled on to his side and yawned, closing his eyes again. Obviously he was in the hospital. Not, that he'd been to the hospital before- but where else could he be? It wasn't like he could fall off a tower and not be hurt somehow. It was probably better to not get up and do too much.

"...figures." The word was pretty stark in the otherwise-quiet seeming room. He hadn't bothered to check his surroundings or wonder any further. It never seemed to occur to him that there could be anything else going on at all...

They'd never met before, but they looked a lot alike. That was rather strange, to say the least, and left poor Eiji rather confused.

Roxas moving to inspect his trunk spurred Eiji to do the same, curious as to the contents of his own.

Ven had flopped forward onto the bed in the process of reading his letters. Seems he was just as shellshocked as Eiji had been. Even after reading them he had no idea what was going on. And seriously what was up with this collar thing?!

Instead of looking through his chest like the others were doing, he rolled over so that now his back was on the bed and he was facing up. "Hallucination?" Ven was fairly certain he wasn't a hallucination. Could multiple people share a hallucination? "Maybe we're all dreaming. It doesn't make sense for worlds to just be gone like that.."

The silence in the room seemed to be understandable, given everyone had just realized their world and lives were potentially destroyed forever.

"Hey...!"

Which means it was the perfect time for Roxas to notice his skateboard tucked into his trunk, promptly pulling it out and dropping it to the ground, testing the wheels with his shoe. Please excuse his happiness that at least something he cares about is still around.

"...I... I doubt it would be a hallucination," Eiji said. "After all, I've never had a dream where someone in the dream pointed out that it was a dream. Though, I've never experienced a lucid dream..."

Let's see...clothes, clothes...cell medals?

The OOO Driver...

But no Core medals.

"A lucid dream? You mean the kind where you're aware that you're dreaming?" He could've sworn he read about them before but he didn't really remember.

Ven sat up and slid over the bed to linger over his chest at the foot of it. "What's that?" He asked, looking at Roxas' skateboard.

"I've never had a dream like this, so I doubt it's one." All his involved some derpy kid and static. Well, okay, Ven sort of reminded him of the brunette, but...

"Huh? Its a skateboard." Duhface, cos seriously who hasn't seen a skateboard before. He left it where it was, reaching in his trunk and grabbing one of the pictures of him and the Twilight Town gang.

"...anyway, this can't be real." Firm defiance go!

"Yeah, like that," he answered to Ven.

Eiji found himself staring at the driver, and searching the trunk several times over for other Core Medals, to no avail.

So...he was stuck here with just the purple ones..?

"Well, if you don't think it's a dream, but you don't think it's real, and it can't be a hallucination, what do you think is going on?" C'mon Roxas, you ain't contributing much to the conversation.

"...Skateboard?" And then back to 'derp what are normal things.' It did look kind of like his Keyblade Glider though, now that he thought about it, just with wheels.

"...You OK?" He directed at Eiji with a concerned frown. It seemed like he was just kind of staring in his trunk.

Unlike derps mcgee over there, Roxas wasn't about to go and wax concerned over strangers just yet. Was he concerned? Sure, but he was also amazingly untrusting when put in magical-summoning towers of salvation.

"I think we got kidnapped and someone is playing a really big prank on us." Hey, at least he wasn't claiming (out loud) that either of you were in on said 'prank'. "But if it is serious, then I don't know."

If you can't trust total strangers in weird towers, then who can you trust?

Eiji looks over at Ven, then blinks. After a moment, he nods, and puts forth a bit of a smile. "Y-yeah. Just a little jarred by the whole situation is all."

Of course, he's lying, but they don't know that.

Being concerned about and trusting total strangers in weird towers is totally normal!

"If this is some weird prank, we've still been kidnapped and taken to some strange location." So it was still equally serious you doubting nancy.

"Don't worry, I'm sure everything will be fine. I don't think you can just completely destroy a world just like that," Ven said, offering a small smile. Optimism go!

Despite his policy on trust-issues-go, Rox did seem to chime in when Ven tried to perk their roomie up.

"Yeah. This is probably just some sort of hoax. Worlds are sturdier than that."

And a stretch~ "Besides, how would they have only been able to save individual people? That's just weird."

Open sesame~
