Network Prompts
ONE: LIKE A MOTH TO A FLAME Something about the light of the tablet just seems so alluring. You feel compelled to it, checking the network every free moment, and getting agitated when you can't; you need to talk to people, you need to talk to them now, and hopefully they'll actually respond. Maybe others are having similar attachment problems...
Only one way to find out.
TWO: CAN WE GET ANOTHER LIFELINE OR TWO? So that's it. You're stuck. Maybe there's some kind of a coded message you simply can't decipher. Maybe it's as simple as something's blocking your way and you've got a few tools scattered around, but you can't figure out how to use them to solve whatever puzzle is keeping you from progressing. Or maybe it's something else entirely. Either way, you have no idea how to get around it.
Luckily for you, there's a whole network full of helpful - or maybe unhelpful - souls. Perhaps it's time to ask for some assistance? Someone else is bound to have some kind of insight.
Action Prompts
THREE: SWING BATTER BATTER SWING BATTER BATTER SWING The toy store is nice and cozy, even though sometimes it feels like the dolls are watching you. So you've stayed here for just a little too long, and you're starting to notice... things. But that's just your imagination, right? They can't actually be watching you. They can't actually be moving, either. That door opening? Those footsteps? Maybe they're just a figment of your imagination.
...or maybe they're not. Maybe you should take a baseball bat to whoever that is and find out.
FOUR: A FATAL FUGUE Sunset is fast approaching. You can see some buildings up ahead - if you hurry, you'll make it indoors just in time. But wait! Do you hear someone calling for help and feel compelled to investigate? Do you feel a debilitating headache coming on? Or do you suddenly get a really, really bad feeling about actually walking through those doors?
If you don't snap out of it, it could be deadly. Luckily, there's someone already in that house that might be able to drag you to safety, with or without your approval.
Network - 1, Audio, @Highwind [ At first he'd believed it to be cause of curiosity, technology such as this didn't exist in his homeworld. It seemed interesting, surely it couldn't be anything bad... Of course, if there was anything Kain knew best, it was the feeling of obsession. ]
Hello?
[ The prospect of talking to people was... unwelcome, it had been so long since last he'd done it. Even still, maybe it would ease the issues he was dealing with now. ]
If anyone is present... I've something I need ask.
Action - 3 [ A toy store, huh? It seemed like something his younger self might have enjoyed. Or, enjoyed if Cecil and Rosa were present, and if he wasn't in a strange town that seemed wish nothing more than to kill him and everyone else in it in traumatic ways. And, you know, if he was still a child and had any interest in the creepy dolls and mountains of balls. Seriously, for what use was there so many balls?]
Who is there?
[ The sounds of the place were beginning to drive the Dragoon mad, and he didn't want to deal with them all night. He didn't have any weapons, if there was something unfriendly here he was done for. Kain extends an arm and feels along the merchandise of the store, hoping to find something in the dark that he could use. All he could find was cold hard plastic of the dolls (which were really freaking him out now) or fuzzy stuffed animals... He wanders through the halls, on guard until he feels something else. Wooden, a slender grip that fit one's hands perfectly. ]
Ahh-
[ Apparently it's just in time that he found it, for the footsteps have once again drawn closer... ]
[Rydia was one step away from telling whoever woke her up to get one of Bahamuth's horns where sun didn't shine- but... that voice. It sounded wrong, somehow, a bit more melodic than she remembered but you don't forget the voice of someone who rolled on the dirt with you countless times trying to survive. And who happens to be a decent babysitter for your daughter]
Kain?
[It's a 'the heck are you doing here' tone of voice, even if she knows no one decides to visit the city. A yawn is badly suppressed and she does turn the video feed on, showing herself in her whole sexiness -green hoodie, green hair and even a stream of drool falling from the left side of her mouth-. Still, she is still young the Rydia Kain knew and left behind with the others when Cecil, or, well, she still looks the same, despite rocking the hobo style.]
I can't believe they got you to... [The woman growns loudly before hilding up her tablet ] Anyway, ask away. I'm not sure if I can help but... eh. [There's a long pause, then she finally has to admitit] It's kinda nice to see you again.
[ There was an entire second where the voice confused him. Hearing it, hearing it here of all places. It was... jarring for certain. ]
Rydia? You're here as well?
[ Part of him didn't want to be around anyone he knew, wanted to keep distant. He hadn't... hadn't proven himself on that mountain. Not yet. Even still, there was something comforting about it too. Someone from home was here. He hesitates a moment, but can't help but smile. ]
Unfortunate, though I am glad to see you well.
[ Kain had almost forgotten why he'd gone into this channel to begin with, shaking his head. ]
Yes, yes right. Well, honestly now that I am here it seems... erm, silly.
[ To anyone but Rydia, maybe he'd have been able to say it, but he actually knew her. That made it a bit more... difficult, to admit. Difficult to admit he still hadn't changed. ]
Yes, my friend, I've been here for months now. sorry you've been kidnapped too...
[His voice is still... off but without a proper video feed she can't actually notice how he looks like, well, a kid now. The last time she saw the dragoon he was at Luca's side, on an airship, with a face that started showing the first wrinkles and the look of a man who made pace with himself but... this kain? Oh, it's definitely going to hit her like a rock.]
Always flad to hear a familiar voice, man.
[She shakes her head, shrugging and just looking even more like a total mess]
Please, we rolled in the dirt together too many times to be ashamed of anything.
[Seriously, Kain, when you see someone spit blood during a fight and all... you just pass over this kind of things. Ugh, fighting... the simple idea of entering a battle seems enough to remember her muscles she's not supposed to move too much -stupid aching body!]
[ He'd not yet learned how to run the video feed, though he'd a nagging feeling it was much more obvious than it seemed. He began playing around with the device a bit until it finally seemed to activate, catching him off guard. ]
...found it-
[ Seeing his own appearance in the corner feed caught him off guard. ]
Father would be rolling in his grave could he see me right now...
[ He took the moment to use the tablet to look over his own appearance, unknowingly revealing himself as quite a bit younger than the Kain Rydia would know. Still, he was completely focused upon taking the moment to look himself over. His current appearance wasn't exactly one befitting a Baronian noble. After a few moments he shook his head, recalling for what purpose he'd made contact with anyone. ]
Yes, well. Is... I suppose obsession the best word, toward these devices... normal?
I know, it's not easy... I still don't get those... things. Other people seem to use them with ease, writing like they're using quills and paper, but...
[And she shuts up, staring at the face she can now see. Sweet Asura, you're so... young. And if it's not the first thing she says it's only because she's not so eager to run around and let everyone know her face didn't change at all in the past seventeen years. But...]
Same with my parents but- tell me, Kain, what's the last thing you remember before being kidnapped by this place?
[Because you don't look like an holy dragoon at all. Oh, but explanations and questions can wait now.]
Not as far as I know but this place enjoys to mess up with your head and feelings so... it's possible to be drawn to them? I'm not entirely sure.
I.. believe I'd gone into the Mirror Chamber to meditate, but I've honestly little idea of what happens, even then.
[ And then he frowns. He doesn't know much of what goes on, time passes a lot faster than he realizes when he goes in to meditate, he's scarcely ever aware of himself when he does. ]
[That place on Mount Ordeal Cecil told her about? Well, that places him at least after their journey to the moon. Still... so young! Around Palom and Porom's age, pehaps? And she considers them like incredibly reliable kids.]
Sweet Leviathan, Kain... [She facepalms without offering real explanations on the why] It... doesn't matter, thought, let's focus on one topic at time!
[Because she doesn't like to associate you with any form of obsession, not even toward a silly thing like those... tablets.]
Just try to talk about other stuff, don't look at them for too long and try o ignore anything that may seem unnatural in your mind. This place already messed up with everyone's memories once, I wouldn't be surprised if it starts messing up with our heads too.
So... where are you? And Why are you still wearing that armor? Sweet mother, how can you resist with cold metal against your body? Even with layers of cloth uneder it I just... [Rydia shivers, that armor of yours looks so uncomfortable. AND ranting about stupid, random things it's a good way for ignoring the costant physical pain -for her- and maybe even distract you. ]
[ Okay, so clearly he's said something wrong and he has no idea what. Kain you poor, ignorant child. Just you wait, give it, like, fifteen years or so. You'll see exactly what is going on then. ]
Messed with memories? How so?
[ Great. Great he's stuck in a place that could possibly mess with his head. Great. Great, just great. He just got out of a situation where his memories and feelings were played with, now he's back in one? Needless to say he's really listening to her now. ]
Wh... where? [ Kain takes a moment to calm down, then he glances about, but this house looks no different than the others he'd been in or seen. So he shrugs and glances back at the tablet. ] The only definitive answer is 'a house.'
[Just wait to be split in two, it will be fun, you will kidnap Rosa again and everyone will just enjoy the dance all over again!]
At some point we all had someone important for us following us around. And in the meanwhile this girl, ghost, whatever... Winter blessed us with her presence and she offered us a way to get rid of those... ghostly presences. Whoever used her program had a memory of the person following them removed from their mind... and whoever didn't lost another random memory a few days later.
I'm... so glad I didn't lose any memory of the person who was following me.
Anyway, our memories have been touched and with the whole MN poisoning going on -his is another long explanation- I just... don't trust your mind too much and if something seems off try to keep control over your emotions or thoughts.
[She taps a finger on her tablet and nods Let me know if you find any landmark, here it's somehow important to keep track of our movements.
[ Memories and emotions being messed with, not even being able to trust one's own thoughts... it was all too familiar. He almost wanted to cry, but no, not while he was talking to Rydia. That would be embarrassing, and he still had to pretend he was a tough guy around her. Even though, you know, he's probably more than proven that he isn't. Just let him pretend he seems all tough and strong. ]
MN... poisoning?
[ To distract himself from the ever grow urge to scream and freak out he began trying to determine the meaning of 'MN' was. It didn't take him long to come to the conclusion he was very bad at determining things. ]
It's... complicated. You should probably read all the guides people posted during the past weeks, I will ask someone to link you all. But apparently we're costantly exposed to something that may or may not kill us.
[She raises her hands up]
Whatever, it's all roses and rainbows here if you didn't notice. Try to stay warm and safe, okay?
[Totally not already entering the weird realm of 'I could be your mom so I can actually act like I am her']
We will thank each other when we're out of this place, possibly enjoying a good warm drink with the others. I dream of hot cocoa...
[ Admittedly, Kain had no idea how long he'd been up on Mount Ordeals. Either way, in his mind he'd been up atop the mountain for far too long, even if it had only been a matter of months. He missed everyone, even Edge, surprisingly. Maybe not as much as some people, but if given the chance he'd not be entirely against speaking to Edge again. Maybe. ]
I remember sometime ago receiving a letter, Cecil and Rosa have a child, though I've not been told his name.
[ Thinking of those two... it was better than focusing on the cold, or what could and could not kill him in this place. Even if it kind of hurt, and was admittedly kind of awkward, the news was itself exciting. ]
Everything has been peaceful since the war, as I've been told.
Well... did you hear about Yang? He and his wife had a lovely daughter...
[And she's not going to mention Ceodore for obvious reasons: Rydia didn't heard from Kain for almost seventeen years, she's not too sure on how to handle the whole situation. And HuSH, didn't you love him when he promised to kill you at the first sign of mind control?]
And... yes. Ceodore is the name. I may be bad at naming things but he's not better than me. Oh, even Cid's family is going to grow bigger! [Well, Mid is already a kid in her world but...] He's going to become a grandfather soon. Anything else...? uhn, Edward is rebuilding Damcyan, Edge is teaching to other people how to be a ninja and Luca- Oh, remember the dwarven princess? She is turning into an awesome person. [Look at Rydia, her eyes are literally sparkling now. But how to ignore the positive impact Luca had in her life?] Cid is teaching her how to fly airships and she's such a talented engineer! I bet you would love her if you had a chance to spend some time in her company, she's amazing!
Aand... kind of. We're taking care of things well enough even if I can't say everything is perfect.
A daughter? [ Kain can't help chuckling at that one. ] He must be thrilled. A little girl to be just as stubborn as he himself.
[ He listens to it all happily enough, the beginning of a smile gracing the Dragoon's face. If everyone is well and good Kain needs not worry too much for them. Until... ]
Grandfather? [ And the discomfort is apparent, eyebrows furrowed and smiling fading. ] Already?
[ To Kain, Rydia may well have punched him through the screen. Cid was going to be a Grandfather? But... did that not mean he was getting old? Cid couldn't be that old yet... ]
She certainly is... something. [Rydia doesn't want to tell too much, it would be embarassing to explain Kain "yes, you've been stuck on a mountain for more than seventeen years"... not to mention it could probably crush his spirit too? Not knowing, the summoner preferes to keep it as vague as possible] Ursula, that's her name, took from both Yang AND Sheila, as you can imagine she's as badass as a person can be. [The whole new generation is pretty good,between her, Ceodore, the twins and Leonora she feels like the world is going to be in good hands.
Sheesh... [the summoner frowns, man... there's no need to be so emotive about it, really! She's the one who should worry about her friends getting older and older and her still looking the same. Whatever happened to her body in the Feymarch apparently didn't only take her ability to use white magic... ]
Anyway, enough about me! Tell me more about you! I haven't heard from you in months! [It's not completely a lie, now that they all saved the world Rydia returned in her village and her interations with the rest of the group had been... minimal. Again.] Have your months of isolation on Mount Ordeal been? Did you learn anything that could be useful in such a cold wasteland? Also, come downtown, we have warm croissants in the morning!
[ Kain tucks a bit of hair behind his ear. Before, he might have been glad that he was away from the mountain so that he didn't have to do it anymore... but this place sorta ruined that. Whenever he'd rouse himself from a meditative session he was always tired, and hungry, and sorta confused. Here he had to deal with all those things and no buffer time in between moments. ]
And that you should never eat a Zombie's flesh. I gave some to one of those monster-birds one day, it never flew away and died shortly after.
[ He had felt guilty about it at the time, watching the thing die. It had seemed hesitant to eat the stuff, when it finally did... well, then it made sense to him why those birds tended to attack anything but the zombies. ]
Mind you, I've never found myself compelled to try eating a Zombie's flesh...
