towerofanimus | Cue Mission Impossible Soundtrack

Characters: Echidna and anybody~
Setting: Room 1-01 and Anywhere else in the Tower
Format: Starting prose, will match you!
Summary: Echidna's on a mission to root out the truth behind this conundrum and attempts to be the best damn spy this place has ever seen. Results may vary.
Warnings: The most ridiculous AU ever

At first she thought she would be late to class when her alarm clock didn't wake her up. And then she thought ...well she didn't know what to think when she saw the white ceiling that was suspiciously not her own. When she could move, she wasted no time getting to action; she had read the note and passed it off as silly. Was this one of Tammy's LARP games or something? It was pretty hardcore for something she'd play.

First step; get out of the jumpsuit. Who knows what that was used for, it could have been reading her body signs or something! She was glad to find her things in her trunk, and had quickly changed into a shirt, skirt, a pair of boots and threw on one of her coats. Second step was the matter of the collar; on the one hand, it could have contained poison, but on the other hand, it might have had a dead-man fail safe that killed her if she tried to remove it. best to leave that be for now.

Her primary concern became trying to find any bugs or hidden cameras in the room. She...wasn't exactly a spy master (as much as that'd be really freaking cool), but she could at least try! And that making a stack of books to stand up and getting real up close and scrutinizing every possible corner in the room ever.

Next on the list; figure out what this place was exactly! Echidna was a far cry from believing any of this apocalyptic nonsense, and so it was off into the tower she went exploring, trying to find any eye or antennae of their creator. She liked to think she was sneaky, looking around corner before going down hallways and peaking down stairwells before descending but her...rather bright choice in fashion was an easy give-away and made her pretty noticeable.

(OOC: You know the drill, just let me know wherever else in the tower you want to be~)

To Ventus, she was being loud and not sneaky - but he thought that almost all humans where loud now - an effect of his prior captivity and isolation from all other humans. Then again, compared to Unversed and Vanitas? Most things were rather loud.

So when Echina passed one of the shelves that Ventus was at the base of reading, he visibly winced, keyblade forming in his hand. It only stuck out a little, given that he had his right side to the girl and he was left-handed.

Because that was his ~~learned~~natural reaction to being approached when outside dorm 1-12. ~~Even then he still was wary.~~

~~Oh fine Ven, ruin all of her hopes and dreams, why don't you~~

It may have been for the most part hidden, but it was kind of hard to notice a giant...whatever the heck that was suddenly appear in someone's hand, especially if you were trying to investigate what was going on in an inconspicuous fashion. Although Echidna had absolutely no idea what that thing was, but at the least that guy had just summoned a giant blunt instrument out of nowhere!!

And so with a small yelp of surprise (that just served to make her even less inconspicuous), she hurriedly skittered back behind the nearest corner.

"..Who's there?" Ventus didn't stand, didn't do anything other than ask that question. To him, anything other than a hoarse whisper was loud, and his voice was above that.

He did tilt his head a little, the only sign that despite the ~~doormate behaviour~~ placidity, he was curious.

Echidna carefully peered around the corner carefully, one hand resting against the wall and the other adjusting her glasses slightly before resting on the wall as well.

"I am Echidna." She answered carefully but firmly. This guy didn't seem dangerous but still. Giant blunt instrument and all. "Who are you?"

"...Ventus." Ventus watched her blankly, still alert but not so much now. She didn't look like a threat, and somewhere, he did feel bad about summoning his keyblade (that it was in the forward handed grip only made him feel worse. He needed to stop summoning it like that now..)

"..A-are y-you new...?" Just don't mind the stutters, He'd still learning to interact with pretty much everyone.

"Yes!" She was cautious, but she did try perking up a bit. The guy seemed a bit scared or intimidated or something, and she could at least try and make him feel more comfortable.

"I have been looking around to try and find a clue! Have you found anything?"
