[voice post]

[The sound of a thoughtful yet understated tone is barely audible as Joshua seemingly decides Hell to it- he needs some form of explanation regarding this Wizard of Oz-esque kidnap.]

Hmm, very suspicious. ...Obviously this isn't the work of that attention seeker and his lv. iflare. Still. This could be fun.. and there is still a week left before the ends have to be appropriately tied. Seems something or someone however is sure showing me a good time.

[Joshua's voice changes almost instantly, bright and strangely cheerful; yet still with an edge to it -- though his tones of politeness certainly cover that little trait right up. The more attentive will notice his underlying frustration, but generally? Unless you analyse speech as it's happening, there is no chance to have a clue. None~!]

Hello there, world.
Say, these charming-looking white things milling and bending around in synchronised seizure patterns. Kind of a shame that they disappear so quickly, hmm?

Do they have a name?

They're called Nobodies. As far as I know, it's been a while since they were around last - it's strange for so many of them to suddenly appear like this.

[prissykid.livejournal.com]

"Nobodies" you say. They're looking for something or someone; that's obvious.
A non-human hit squad though...
What a hoot.

[sparkplasma.livejournal.com]

They're not really a good thing, actually. I don't think you were here that long ago, but they were attacking innocent people that time. With this number of them, if they turn aggressive again...

[prissykid.livejournal.com]

I've only just arrived.
...Wouldn't you say that is when you run? What's the point of hanging around waiting to be a target?

[sparkplasma.livejournal.com]

... I was running for long enough. If they attack, we'll defend. I won't just stand by and let the Organization have its way with this world.

[prissykid.livejournal.com]

"We'll" ?
...Spare me the heroics for just a second. Tell me about the Organisation.

d-derp sorry about the delay

[sparkplasma.livejournal.com]

My friends and I.

Um- sorry. The Organization's a powerful group in the city. Their uniform is a long black coat, but I don't know that they wear it much anymore. I think someone said their members are also Nobodies, even though they look human. They're best known for kidnapping and torturing people at random.

No worries!

[prissykid.livejournal.com]

Sounds like they're just bored.

[sparkplasma.livejournal.com]

... Well, that's true of Larxene, at least, but I don't know about the others. It seems like there'd have to be more to it than that, for them to go to all this trouble.

[sceadu-gemynd.livejournal.com]

Nobodies, I believe.

[prissykid.livejournal.com]

Thanks, but that question has already been answered. Try to be a little more attentive next time, hmm?
Anything else to know?

[sceadu-gemynd.livejournal.com]

That depends on what you're interested in. I don't know everything.

[prissykid.livejournal.com]

Hmmmmmmmm.

Primarily if they're native to this world. What they're looking for, and if there's anything nastier around as part of the crash landing here package would be lovely, too.
Oh, before I forget! I understand that its quite possible to "learn by experience", so don't prove yourself dull by telling me that in case you don't know. I don't do sweating -- even for the purpose of investigation.

[sceadu-gemynd.livejournal.com]

I wasn't aware of their existence until I arrived here, although whether or not this makes them native to this world I can't say. All I can say is that we had nothing like them on my world.

As for nastier, I will admit that there's relatively few monsters. But that doesn't make the place the safest.

[prissykid.livejournal.com]

Most likely. Unless this really is a wormhole scenario, and they're just as lost and confused as us. The fact they seemed to have some sort of direction though could lead to another possibility.

[His rather self-assured voice soon turns into a rather small mumble. Whether Zexion can hear it is up to his hearing, though Joshua is simply thinking out loud. ]
Strange. The Plane I was on prior to coming here was secure enough, but... Of course, these things happen. Beats staying in the RG, anyway.

[And back to normal! Though slightly more whimsical than before, since the whole Nobody investigation is after all, just a distraction and a procrasination when compared to the much larger picture.]

Anything else that's handy?

[sceadu-gemynd.livejournal.com]

It's entirely possible that someone could be directing them. As a matter of fact, I can think of at least one possibility. Whether or not I'm correct though has yet to be seen.

Although they're of somewhat lesser importance, yes. For example, the stores here will take most anything in payment provided it's suitably shiny.

[prissykid.livejournal.com]

Hopefully their objective is entertaining, whatever it is. This place is starting to get just as dull as any other. It'll be quite a nice distraction to see what other life forms can do, any way.

...That's rather expected with the amount of immigrants landing here. People adapt, and some decide to take trinkets from the desperate; especially when they can be cashed in for a higher value than what essentials tend to cost.

Have any idea about government, anything like that? I can't see any ruler choosing to remain complacent throughout an influx of foreigners, unless this sort of thing has been happening since the dawn of time.

[sceadu-gemynd.livejournal.com]

There used to be a mayor. However, he's since been found dead; rumored killed. No one has yet taken his place, although there's a group of individuals who have taken over City Hall.

[prissykid.livejournal.com]

...interesting.
But even if there was a coup and authoritative figures ran, wouldn't you say any government worth their salt would blame foreigners immediately and subjugate them, perhaps restrict imports coming into the dome to starve them?

[sceadu-gemynd.livejournal.com]

One would think. But that seems to not be the case here.

[prissykid.livejournal.com]

...Hn.
Thank you, you've been helpful.

[sceadu-gemynd.livejournal.com]

It's the least I could do/

[prissykid.livejournal.com]

...

Why is that?

[sceadu-gemynd.livejournal.com]

What good is what I've managed to find out if no one else knows it?

[prissykid.livejournal.com]

It's not like it's a lot of knowledge, is it.
Unless you're being sneaky and concealing a few things.

[sceadu-gemynd.livejournal.com]

The journals aren't precisely safe. You'll forgive me for being somewhat less than free with what I know.

[prissykid.livejournal.com]

Seems it. They are free after all, which makes a separate thought spring to mind again.

I'll suppose that you'll have to make a trip to see me. Since you're into the sharing and caring thing after all~

[sceadu-gemynd.livejournal.com]

If that's what you wish.

[hellgun.livejournal.com]

Well. Seems like everyone else answered for me. But yeah, Nobodies.

Be careful of the bigger ones as well.

[prissykid.livejournal.com]

I'd like a complete run-down, if possible.
