[waves at the screen]

Hello! I heard there's a fair bit of you guys migrating my way, to Destiny Islands, and thought I'd introduce myself. I'm sure some of you are already here, I can't wait to meet you!

My name's Selphie. I've lived on the islands all my life, so let me know if you're having problems finding your way around, alright?

Ah, my sister and I just arrived. I'm Serah.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

It's nice to meet you, Serah. Are you guys settling in alright?

[crystal-stasis.livejournal.com]

We haven't gotten that far just yet. We'll have to worry about a place to stay soon, though.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[tries to give you a smile, she feels awful about the things everyone is going through]

will you be staying in the dorms, then? or are you looking for a more permanent place? Because we have some great apartments with ocean front views!

[crystal-stasis.livejournal.com]

Well, neither of us are going to school, but we'll probably be looking for a more permanent place. I'm not sure what Lightning's plans are right now.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[nods, thoughtfully. You're older than you look, serah!]

I see, well, I hope you guys like it here. The islands can be pretty peaceful, and I know some great places, if you need to do some shopping, there's also some really cute bistros hiding, if you know where to look.

I hope I'll get to see you around, and meet you in person!

[crystal-stasis.livejournal.com]

[She is xD]

I'm sure we will. It reminds me of home, before the purge chaos.

Shopping sounds great.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

Great! I have school during the day, but I'm free in the afternoons [being born and raised her has the added advantage of not having to deal with the dorm curfews, mwhaha] so, whenever you want to go, just let me know!

[crystal-stasis.livejournal.com]

Alright, I'll let you know.

[duelking.livejournal.com]

S- Wait-- you've been in Destiny Islands this whole time?! I'm living there now! Why didn't you say anything?!

[video]

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[confused face. people don't generally react quite that intensely to her]

[video]

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[awkward smile]

Um... hello?

Err... I'm...sorry? That is... I've always lived here [fidgets] If...I had known...um.. I would have?

[peeks at the screen, and quietly] who...are you again?

What are you--?

[duelking.livejournal.com]

S-Sorry... I guess I -- ah, got the wrong person.

[video]

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[sdlkfjslkj she broke him D: awful feeling, a'hoy!]

Ah! Wait, please, I'm sorry I'm not who you thought I was but...but I'd like to be your friend, if you'll let me?

[offers a smile and pushes ahead with the conversation, hoping to distract him from that sad face he's making]

You said you've been living on Destiny Islands then? Do you like it here?

[video]

[duelking.livejournal.com]

I don't wanna have a friendship made outta guilt... But it'd be okay by me to get to know ya.

Reminds me of home. Gonna be goin' to school here, too. ...You gonna be there?

[video]

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

Not out of guilt! [smiles sunnily] I would have asked to be your friend, even if things hadn't started this way, you look like you have a story to tell.

So then, your home is like Destiny Islands? That must be a nice place indeed. [smiles] Yup! Maybe I'll see you in the halls sometime.

[wants to know what his name is, but unsure how to ask at this point...]

[video]

[duelking.livejournal.com]

Y'think so? Heh...! Thanks.

Sorta! My hometown is situated on an island, but it's more... one big one instead of a bunch of smaller ones. Ah--! Oh yeah, my name's Zell. Zell Dincht. Nice to... uh. M-Meetcha and all. Yeah.

[video]

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[she's trying to picture it, but is kind of failing]

maybe after all this is said and done, I can visit you!

[laughs] Zell, then. It's nice to meet you too.

[video]

[duelking.livejournal.com]

That'd be awesome! I think you'd like it. Say, you like trains?

[video]

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[happy face] I do! How did you guess? Are you a fan too?

[toseehimsmile.livejournal.com]

Can I ask about the uniforms for those who have to go to the school?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

Hello.

Sure thing! Hang on just a moment, and I'll show it to you

[disappears from the screen for a second, the sound of shuffling can be heard as she flings things about in her closet]

[rushes back with the plain button-down shirt in one hand, with the tie hanging over a shoulder, and the skirt in the other hand]

There are navy socks too, it's pretty simple, and there's the option for a vest over it.

[toseehimsmile.livejournal.com]

Does a lady really have a wear something that shows off flesh? it's very un-lady like.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[blinks, she wasn't really expecting that]

Oh...well. There's a jacket that goes with it? But it's so warm on the islands that most of us choose not to wear it.

[toseehimsmile.livejournal.com]

But it's un-lady like! A young lady should not show that much skin.



It's rude where I was from.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[...isn't sure what to say to that...]

Oh. Well... I'm sure you could find a skirt of a longer proportion? With everyone coming from so many varied places, I imagine they'd allowed for your home world customs and stuff, to help make you feel more at ease.

[toseehimsmile.livejournal.com]

I hope so, I don't know what I would do otherwise.

Thank you for answering my questions.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[phew, that was one situation diffused!]

any time. I'll look for you in the halls, okay?

[toseehimsmile.livejournal.com]

Okay!

[notahonda.livejournal.com]

Kid, what's the school like at Destiny Island, any good?

I only had a few months left at school at home, don't really feel the need to continue if the schools are worthless on the island.

The beaches are nice though.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[blinks, hello]

Oh, well. It's a very nice school, and they've added on to it, to accommodate all the new students we'll be getting. I'm not sure what your school was like though, I hope you'll like it here.

[smiles] if nothing else, we do have some pretty great beaches.

[notahonda.livejournal.com]

I'm not even sure how I can transfer into a new school, my transcript and my old school got gobbled up by some over dramatically named darkness.

I suppose I can give your school a try... don't think I'll get much out of it anyway.

Definitely a step-up from Traverse Town.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

I think they're looking at it more as "disaster relief" schooling, just to keep everyone learning things until you can go home. It'll be an interesting social experience, if nothing else, right?

[laughs] is it that bad there?

[Video]

[blitz-acing.livejournal.com]

Hi, Selphie.

[Well this is weird.]

[Video]

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[stares at you. you look...slightly wrong somehow...but she's not sure how.....]

[and then, have an annoyed face]

Tidus! Are you playing on the communicators? I'm waiting for responses from people coming to the islands, stop messing around.

[Video]

[blitz-acing.livejournal.com]

Yeah, about that...

Do you know where I-- this other me lives?

[Video]

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[stares at you]

[Video]

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

then...you mean you're not the Tidus from Destiny Islands?

[Video]

[blitz-acing.livejournal.com]

No. I'm from Zanarkand.

[Video]

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[stares at you, trying to dissect the awkward word you just said]

[then, thinking back to her earlier conversation with Zell, and how awkward THAT had been because she was a familiar face to him, she thinks this is a little less awkward... maybe]

So...then you're one of the lost people?

[Video]

[blitz-acing.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I guess you could say that.

[Video]

[http://users.livejournal.com/_booyaka/]

[sad face, because you look so much like her friend and she hates the thought of her friends being lost]

Well then, consider yourself found, Tidus!
