[voice flicks on. she sounds pretty nervous.]

Y’know, when a girl's dragged out of her own dimension into another one, she kinda likes to be asked about it first. Or told, at least. Don't get me wrong--I'm always up for an adventure, but. Even this is kind of extensive for my tastes. And I have pretty unique tastes.

Like, this place isn't full of memories masquerading as live people, which is pretty cool, but it isn't full of chocobos or Hypello either, which makes it less cool. There is some nifty machina, like this communicator not-really-spherical thing, but... nothing else I really recognize. Not even any tall buildings like in Bevelle. [there's a frown in her voice.] But Shiva knows I really don't wanna be there right now.

Moving on.

[and now her tone changes; all the mischievousness.]

Anyways, does this place have a name? It can't not have a name, right? That'd be silly, and a place that brought the Great and Awesome Rikku here can't be silly. Because I'm totally not silly--if I'm gonna be on an adventure in another dimension, I gotta be serious and calm and stuff. Like Auron!

[she struggles to make her voice serious, but she can't keep it up, and she giggles as she reverts back to her token cheerful tone. then her voice fades to something like puzzlement.]

Hey, can anybody even hear this? [she taps the microphone, getting up close--she's a little loud, now.] Is it on right? I thought so, but just in case--

[she raises her voice, almost yelling now.] Hello? Hello! Hey, hi there, I'm Rikku! Anybody there? Answer me, okay?

[she laughs, pulling back from the microphone. the feed cuts.]

[ there's only one thing she catches in all of this- ]

...Rikku?

[voice]

[talebeyonddeath]

No one chooses to be here. Nor do we choose to stay.

[he's noticed that her picture seems older than from last time, so he sits and waits for the inevitable series of questions]

[voice]

[sceadu_gemynd]

Yes. It has a name.

Voice.

[creepyfreezone]

Why would you ask if the microphone is on after you say everything?

[Voice]

[burningamour]

The Great and Awesome Rikku, is it? Why, I am surprised! Surely one would thing to include 'beautiful' in your title.

[lanterndreaming]

Hello Rikku! We can hear you, don't worry.

[voice]

[storyofadream]

[Well, this wasn't something that Tidus was expecting when he checked the network...but it's definitely a good surprise, even if it doesn't sound like she remembers her last time in Paixao.]

Yeah. We can all hear you loud and clear, Rikku!

[permavoice]

[chosencasanova]

Unique tastes, huh? And just what might those be?

[permavoice]

[pullstringcowboy]

Rikku? Weren't you... Ah-I mean, you just arrived here?

[ permavoice ]

[sinning]

Bevelle? So that means you're from Spira then, huh? What'd you say the name was? Rikku? Why's that seem familiar...

[Voice]

[shout_geronimo]

Ooh, adventures! I love adventures! Frankly, though they could turn it down a little. This place is called Paixao, and it's one of many worlds locked inside a castle. Can you imagine? [glee] A whole world inside of a castle! Blimey, I'd love to see the physics involved.

And Rikku? That sounds familiar. You wouldn't happen to know a Sora, would you? Or a Yuna?
