A few minutes before anything happens, Ruana's voice rings out over the Tower's intercom--it manages to be louder than anything the residents happen to be doing. "Hey, everyone, there's something exciting going on at floor fifty-six! Go make sure they don't get themselves killed!"


You arrive, stepping or tumbling, in a surgical suite. It looks abandoned, with dust collecting on the table and floors. The lights flicker, and for a moment blood dripping off the table, puddling on the floor--but no, the lights are back, and surely that was your imagination. It's quiet, eerily so, but nothing hinders you, and you're free to spread out and explore. There are multiple rooms here, like in any hospital, and it's all a bit confusing. Occasionally the lights flicker, and it's a bit frightening as Things appear that shouldn't exist. Shadowy creatures stitched together and reaching for you, doctors brandishing phantom surgical tools, blood splattering the walls or floor or ceiling, how did it get there--but none are real, and all of them vanish when the lights return. Eventually you find the staircase, spiraling up and down into darkness. Approach it, though, and the thing glitters with a barrier that will push back any attempts at climbing the thing.

A girl, a teenager dressed in red and black, appears. And she does simply appear, inserting herself into the space, nearly pushing it aside to make room in it for where she is now. Her face beams with unconcealed excitement, and her words tumble out on top of themselves. "You can't go there! Yet, I mean. You'd all die!"

The girl steps onto the staircase, passing through the barrier as if it weren't there, and sits on the steps to address everyone. "Hi! I'm Ruana. You didn't show up the normal way, so the Tower can't support you yet. We got this one floor ready when I saw you were coming but, well, the Tower's kind've big, so getting all of them set up is taking a little longer than I thought." She smiles, sheepishly apologetic in a carefree sort of way. "I've got everyone coming here to visit you--or at least they know they can visit you--and I'll have someone bring food up for you. It'll be oatmeal, and oatmeal is super boring, but you have to eat it, okay? Then you can have whatever you want! The cafeteria's down on the first floor if you get hungry. We should have everything ready in a few hours. I've gotta go help with that, so you guys wait here.

"Don't worry, the monsters can't get to this floor as long as that barrier is up."

And then she's gone, blinking out of existence. The barrier will remain for three hours.

[Naminé glanced up, giving him a small smile. With so many cross overs from different worlds and times, she isn't surprised that someone would know her outside of being in the Facility and Hinoto-Ri, but it never fails to impress her.

She (and her other selves, she supposes) has come a very long way from that girl stuck in Castle Oblivion.]


I'm fine, thank you. Just trying to rest a little. Though I'm almost certain I'm not your Naminé, I'm sorry.

[Well, he can guess that, but he kind of takes a seat next to her. Because it would be kind of awful to just leave because she isn't who he thinks she is or whatever.]

Yeah, I guess that makes sense. You don't have the Tower collar that we usually arrive with.

Just wanted to make sure you're okay. There's a bunch of empty dormitory floors you guys will probably have access too later. And there are lounge floors too.

[Naminé touches her Facility collar, nodding with a small grimace before turning to him curiously.]

Thank you, Mister...?

[He doesn't ask her about it. He doesn't want to know, he thinks.]

It's Dave. No Mister. Mister is what you call an old dad who's picking you up from school or something. Just Dave is cool.

Alright, Dave then.

So...this other Naminé-- would it be possible to meet her? [She is, admittedly, very curious.]

It's probably pretty possible once you guys are able to access the rest of the Tower. She's around.
