≋ Wind, Water, and Sand

[salvagedlight]

[Ven's in his room, stuffing a few things into a bag and zipping it up as he talks - a couple of towels, a smaller bag of greens, a pair of flip-flops. He talks as he packs, so this isn't just random stuff.]

Aside from the tournament, it's been pretty quiet lately. Someone told me once that chocobos can swim, so I'm gonna take Daisy out to the Destiny Islands and see if I can teach her. [Or, you know, get drowned by his pet, but that could still be fun.] If anyone wants to hang out while I'm there, I think it'd be fun.

[And indeed, about half an hour after he's made his little announcement, Ven has portalled himself and Daisy out to the play island off the main one. He's not entirely sure how this is going to go so it's probably better to keep the now three-and-a-half foot tall bird away from most of the population.]

[There was also a separate, private message to Eagle just before he took Daisy through that portal.]

If you're really interested in seeing a Keyblade, I'll meet you on the Islands.

Ven! [Wavewavewave. It's good to see you again!]

Do you want any help? I'm not busy right now, and the beach sounds really nice! [She's not going to be any help in this endeavor, she'd probably be terrified of a chocobo up close.]

[salvagedlight]

[She's not even fully grown yet, come on! You can do it! Ven smiles at the friendly face.]

Hey, Usagi - are you sure you wanna help? Daisy's probably going to be pretty excited about all of it, and she can get a little, um... hyper when she's excited.

[moonbeams]

[Well, maybe if she's not huge. As it is, Usagi is full of curiosity.]

hehe. Don't worry! I'd really like to. I haven't seen one up close before!

[salvagedlight]

[Not too huge yet. Not anything like she will be eventually.]

Okay - you know where the play island is? We'll be out there soon.

[moonbeams]

Play island? [SHe lifts her hand to her lips, in a thoughtful gesture.]

Ummm.. Nope! I can get to the main Island though...! Which way do I go from there?

[salvagedlight]

It's right off the main island, you can see all of it from the shore - you just have to take a boat over the water. It's maybe three or five minutes across there.

[...hang on, this IS Usagi we're talking about here.] Do you want me to come to the main island first?

[moonbeams]

[You're learning quickly, young apprentice. It's probably best you meet her. She thinks for a moment, before grinning sheepishly, one hand lifting to scratch the back of her neck.]

Ummm... Would you mind?

[salvagedlight]

Nah, it's okay - can I meet you at the docks? I can borrow Sora's boat to get us over.

[Or at least to get her over, Daisy might need another portal. Or maybe he'll just take Usagi through that, too.]

[moonbeams]

Hmm.. Mm! I can get there at least! [She might just go ahead and head in that direction. It shouldn't take TOO long from where she is. Wait.]

Who's Sora? [The question is asked with a slight tilt of her head.]

[salvagedlight]

He's a friend of mine, he lives on the Islands. [There's a slight pause, then-] He's not here right now, though. But he won't mind me borrowing it.

[moonbeams]

He's not? [That seems kind of sad, but considering the last time she asked about someone from Ven's past...]

I'm sure he'll be back soon! Good as ever! [Don't give up hope!]

[salvagedlight]

No, he's out looking into ways to get all of you back home. We just miss him. [Especially Kairi. But that's neither here nor there for the moment.] I'll be there in a minute, okay?

[moonbeams]

All alone? [That.... seems like a heavy burden for someone to carry alone.] Couldn't we all help him? But..ah. Okay! I should be able to meet you there soon!

[salvagedlight]

No, he's got help. [Riku - the two of them had better send word back soon, or Ven was tempted to go find them himself. But for now, he had a chocobo to take care of.] I'll meet you there soon!

[And the comm goes off.]
