Fellowship of Animus | First Council of Sages

[sageprincess]

Characters: THE FELLOWSHIP OF ANIMUS aka pretty much everyone
Setting: Floor 38, early afternoon - forward-dated to July 29
Format: Party style - pick your poison
Summary: After repeated delays, Zelda and Gandalf have finally called the populace of the Tower to discuss productive means of dealing with their situation.
Warnings: None yet, will edit should something come up

It's taken far too long to get to this point.

Come Sunday, the various couches and armchairs of the uppermost lounge have been arranged in vaguely semi-circle-like patterns, with chairs from other floors scattered amongst them to increase seating even more. The semi-circles face inwards towards a central point to facilitate discussion among a large group of people. Though this is by no means a party, small slices of Lembas bread are available on tables around the perimeter - though there is no shortage of food, the hungry tend to be less cooperative, all the same.

Outside, the sun shines brightly without a cloud to obstruct it, but the atmosphere inside is much less carefree. Considering the purpose of gathering here this day, it's to be expected. Should this council succeed, it may very well change life in the Tower as everyone knows it. If not, well... one should certainly hope individual efforts begin to bear more fruit than they have in the past.

[He glances over to his double, sending him a curt nod - he is glad that they share opinion on this despite the differences in their universes.

Kidou's words don't do much to impress him, or to have him react with much more than an raised eyebrow.]

Good intention. But close to meaningless, when you can't back it up. [And as far as Riku is concerned that's the case here. He raises an eyebrow at that second statement directed at him, lips twitching in an self-ironic smile, because really...] Just what makes you think I haven't?

[Because he has and back home he's still dealing with the consequences of it. He isn't proud of what he's done, of all the mistakes made, far from it really - but he isn't going to deny them either.]

[Sora didn't really know what to think about this argument. He had come close to speaking a few times, but...okay, he might as well me honest with himself. He can't make up his mind.

Villains are bad, right? Good guys don't work with bad guys, or else they wouldn't be bad guys. That was basic adventuring stuff. But at the same time, was working together better than having more people to fight? Then there were all the questions about trust and what villains are and...safe to say, Sora's head was spinning a little.

Maybe he should just listen in, this time.

That's what he does - just sits there and listens closely, until he knows what he wants to say (which doesn't ever actually happen).

What Riku says catches his attention, though, for reasons that don't have anything to do with the debate. What...exactly did he mean by that? For a minute, he doesn't take his eyes off his friend, though he stops himself from asking right here and now.

Maybe later...hopefully, he gets a chance to find out what he meant.]
