[Lizzie had been preparing herself for whatever happened in the future, but she had never expected to have to take a moment to train with soldiers. Shirtless soldiers at that. So while they were busy training, Elizabeth herself was busy siting at the edge, trying to have to avoid interesting with them. Mainly because every time she tried, it ended up her beat red and covering her eyes and nearly on at least two occasions knocking the poor man over when trying to get out of the way. So all in all, it never ends well. So for now she's just sat there pouting slightly, this isn't very fun and it's not teaching her a thing.] 

It's very unladylike to see another man in...[She shows shirtless men in all their glory. Busy training with sticks.] That way until they are married. [She sighed, this was going to be hard, though they do give her some looks at times, she's just used her charm to help her.] Mist....I mean... Senpai. Is that right? It sounds like a really cute name for something though, so it must be. [She's...going a bit off track. Give her a moment to snap back.]

I was wonder if this is meant to help me in anyway, or if I can find a way to get them to wear shirts. Oh! Maybe I could try making them wear shirts I made myself. [And now she's smiling, happy as a clam and as hyper as one could be anyway. Though once she turns her head slightly, she's checking out what exactly is going on before covering her eyes and closing the device.]

Grr. Come on! [ and with a final grunt aj musters the last of her strength so that she can pull the tool ridden cart at her rear over the remaining hill. a smile spreads across her face as she's suddenly taken in by the sight before her. it's so gorgeous here at dusk... as the sun's only just starting to set right over her new-found farm. she can barely contain herself, and soon she's shouting a celebratory yeehaw! and tossing her hat into the air. the communicator shoots skyward as she'd forgotten that she'd placed it on the rim of her hat. ]

waah! [ a moogle leaps out of the cart to catch the communicator and prevent it from falling to the ground and breaking into a million little pieces. it wipes its forehead in relief and lets out a small sigh before handing it back to her. ] ...you need to be more careful with this, kupo!

[ aj retrieves the communicator from the moogle sheepishly. ] oopsie. I almost fergot that I put that thing up there. [ in order to ease some of the mounting tensions she laughs. ]

oh -- Reminds me! [ she is about to turn it on when she realizes that it had been on the entire time. ] ...double oopsie.

Er, well, uh, Howdy. I thought that I would let ya'll know that I gots me a farm on Destiny Islands. I should have everything set up in no time, and then ya'll can try some of my famous apple pies. ...and even better, everypony, it's almost cider season!

( private; nero. )

Nero. Iffin' yer still interested I gots that job fer ya'. I could really use yer help setting up. I started planting some of the apple seeds and I gots the shed set up... but the barn, itself, is a lot more work and I remember ya'll sayin' it wouldn't be no trouble at all. I would a'course pay ya'll for yer troubles in nothing but them sweets I mentioned to ya' a'for. But I could also give ya'll some munny too, iffin' ya' really wanted.

[Tohru can be seen running up and down the inns hallways with a mop. The bucket having been left to the side, so that she can't knock it over during said cleaning. Once the floor was close to being able to sparkle, Tohru stood there with a look that said 'job well done']

It had taken all day, but I think I did a good job. At least it wasn't as bad as tings I've dealt with before. [Picking up the mop she walks over to the bucket, picking that up with the device before making her way to the kitchen, to put them back in the closet they had come out of. Once she had done that, she carried the device with her back to her hotel room and sat down on the bed.]

I... have a question and I hope that you'll be able to help me? I heard that there was a school somewhere, but I don't have a first clue of where it is, but not only that I need to look for a job to be able to support myself while I finish school. [She looked down, sure while here she might still be able to finish school, hopefully.]

I don't want to be a bother to anyone, but if you know where I can find work, I'll be very grateful. [She reaches over with her spare hand to switch off then she realizes she wanted to ask something else.]

Masane-san, I hope that you are eating well enough? If not I'll be happy to cook something for you if you want? B-But you don't have to though, I don't want to be a nuisance,

[As the communicator clattered to the floor, the feed started. For some reason, Agni was standing inside this palatial looking Chinese building, with a mop in hand. At first he seemed not to notice that he’d lost the item as he continued to mop the floors]

Just a few more touches.. And this place will be ready.

[You could see pride in the way he smiled at the fine wooden floors, and as he went about dusting and cleaning. For a long time, Agni had been wanting to do something to help either restore the worlds or to provide shelter for new arrivals. His reason for his recent absence from the communicators could be blamed nearly solely on this project.]

Everyone has done such a fine job.

[He stopped his work in order to just take it all in. Just as he turned slightly to the left, he caught sight of the communicator]

Has, this been recording the whole time? [Surprise washed over his face as he kneeled to pick it back up] I do apologize for the inconvenience. [But.. While it was on he might as well explain]

Due to a few recent incidents I’ve decided to open an inn on The land of Dragons. [He walked along and gave a brief tour of the building]

Rates will be reasonable, and there are plenty of rooms available for those in need of lodging. The cuisine is mostly based on Chinese dishes, but we can cater to other tastes. Oh! There are hot springs just behind the inn!

[he should probably tell them the name]

Welcome to the Exotic Lotus Hotel.

[Private to Joruk]

If you have some free time, I would like you to be one of the first to see the hotel.

[He did value his roommatess opinion and wanted to know what he thought of everything]

[Winry was glad that the mist had finally gone and now they could possibly rest a lot easier. But for Winry this wasn't going to be the case. Far from it in fact. With her arms in bandages, she had set about still working on various pieces of automail, making sure to build them from scratch and to make sure they are separate to begin with. She knew even in her little better tired state, she could work like a pro. It was something she was use. So with her focused look on, she had started to carefully piece the thing together one bit at a time. She a smile, she screwed one of the first two piece together before wiping her head against her head, getting rid of some unwanted sweat.]

It's nice to be able to do things again without fear of what was in the mist. Though did anyone actually find out what was the cause, or even how it came here? [She puts down the wrench and stretches, giving herself the first break she had in a while since the mist left, standing up and making her way to some drawers, going to look for some change of clothes. Picking through them she soon found a log sleeved top and a skirt before closing the draw again to throw them on the bed.]

I just hope everyone else is okay and isn't suffering the after effects too much. [Pausing at that moment, she looks down at her bandaged arms and gloved hands, remembering what it did to her personally. Never again would she let that get to her that badly. Going over to the device, she smiles slightly before picking it up, cupping it within her palm.]

So now I've dealt with my second odd thing, would it be okay to ask how often does things like that actually happen?

So, many of us come from different worlds, and a bunch come from Earth at different points in time...or different versions of Earth.

I guess that could lead to some culture clashes, like that Dating Auction. Some of us are more familiar with arranged marriages. I'm from [ 19th Century name for the part of Central Asia he comes from.] and I think I've heard some people refer to the time period as Victorian, for some Queen in England or whatever. That faraway place had nothing to do with my clan.

[ Unaware of the Great Game, that England had going on with Russia.]

Many of you haven't even heard of where I lived. Maybe the name changed? Or it's just part of the Russian Empire? They're way too big.

Why do I sometimes hear words in different languages anyway? Isn't there something translating whatever we say? I doubt anyone speaks Kazakh.

I had a point with this. Since we all come from places with different cultural standards,it might be better to try to keep an open mind. I think that's part of why Naoto was trying to get a better understanding of our worlds.

[ a video feed cuts in and out while there's screaming being heard from beyond the camera. Albel appears a couple of times, standing in front of a large Heartless that looks like a dragon ]

I said, get back! [ Albel barks at the others. the video finally focuses, showing the snowy campsite of the soldiers. Albel raises his claw at the Heartless, practically waiting for it to attack him first as he starts to make a harsh laugh, mostly to himself and slides a foot backward ]

I'll make a new coat out of you!

[ the video goes out again when Albel's seen running in for an attack on the heartless. after a few moments, the video cuts on again and an annoyed looking Albel is seen in the video. he doesn't seem to be beaten up too much, just a couple of cuts and bruising here and there. the camera moves as he sits down in the snow, scoffing ]

Bah! The dragons back home put up much more of a fight than this fool did.

[ he glances behind his shoulder at some of the soldiers who look like they're amused ]

Idiots... How was I supposed to know that the beast would just disappear when it was defeated? Now I'll need to find another animal to make a coat out of.

Listen up ya'll. [ aj's not entirely sure who exactly she's supposed to be addressing. ] Didn't yer momma ever tell ya' that it ain't nice to kidnap anypony. I just ain't got the time to be playing any of yer silly games. I have work to do around the farm and it ain't going to get done on it's own. [ a smirk as she looks aside to mutter the next bit under her breath. ] ...at least not without ol' Applejack there anyways.

[ clears her throat and returns her attention to the communicator. ] So c'mon, ain't there anypony going to confess 'cause I'd really like to get back home. [ the situation appears to finally be sinking in. ] ...this here better be some kind of a joke! [ stamps her hoof. she might be getting just a little bit frustrated. ] Big Macintosh stop it this instant! Dash? ...anypony?

[ a sigh as she looks at dog sitting by her hooves. ] Winona, I have a feeling we're not in Ponyville anymore.

[When the feed cuts on, it's quite obvious that it's accidental, though who exactly turned it on is unknown. In the video, Lenalee is on her hands and knees, her head ducked under her bed and out of view for the moment.]

Ah... there there! Come on. Don't be afraid. Come out where I can see you! [Her voice is barely audible, but the shuffling sound that follows is louder. From the other end of the bed a small pair of furry paws is visible, just before the Teddiursa's head pops out curiously.]

Ah.. wait! [Obviously, Lenalee thinks the pokemon has scurried further under the bed, so she shifts slightly trying to follow him. Meanwhile, the Teddiursa circles the edge of the bed to where Lenalee's back half pokes out from under the bed, one paw raised to it's tiny mouth as it blinks curiously. Only a moment later and it's climbing up Lenalee's leg to settle comfortably on... her butt.]

E-eh!? Hey! [Well this is awkward. It takes some doing, but after a bit of shimmying that backs her against the table the communicator is perched on she eventually manages to get the teddiursa into her arms. It's only then that she notices the feed, and she quickly swipes up the communicator.]

How Embarassing! [And now she's going to try and figure out something to talk about to distract anyone who's seen this] Ah... I hope... everyone is enjoying the date auctions...! It really seems like some of the bidding is getting exciting.

[Don't mind the fact that she's entirely embarrassed at the moment, ok?]

[The video feed cuts on, And Usagi's cheerful face is only partially obscured by what looks to be a very elaborate dessert drink -- likely one she's helped whatever cafe craft herself. So it reminds her of home.

She offers the camera a wink.]


I hope everyone's having fun with the auctions! [There's a pause, and she lifts a hand to scratch the back of her neck sheepishly.] It looks like we made a lot of mistakes... It looks like a lot of people didn't sign themselves up, we're super sorry! Next time we'll make sure nothing like this happens again.

But that doesn't mean you shouldn't make the best out of the situation! We're raising a lot of money, and you might have a lot of fun on your dates! So don't be too down, okay? [She offers another, brighter smile, though the expression falters slightly as the video ends.]

[Naoto had switch on to show various pieces of paper places neatly around her desk and a pen placed beside a small pile on her right. Naoto on the other hand is as calm as anything sat at her desk, her hands clasped together as she looked like she was getting down to serious business.]

Given a talk I had with someone some days ago about different time periods, this made me curious enough to wonder at what year or which country; the place that each of you are from originally and what life was like there? [She reaches over and pulls a piece of paper to look at.]

Information like that will be useful when it comes to various things like law, since in different worlds they have different rules. I believe that this can help us come to some sort of starting point and gives us an idea of what you know and don't.[She pauses slightly, looking at another piece.]

It also helps me to figure out if there is any rules that are common. If there are, then it makes certain rules a lot easier to get across in the worlds.

[She soon pauses in the middle of something, her small smile, amused and genuine.]

I will appreciate any and all input.

Idiot beansprout, where the hell are you!

[The underworld was a battle zone at the moment and Kanda was busy doing what he did best: schooling things. He was still injured from his previous battles so his movements were highly compromised but that was never a reason for him to quit. He was a stubborn exorcist, he was still on his feet. Breathing hard, Kanda was trying to keep his ground. He wasn't backing off even if he was mildly overwhelmed at the moment. The enemies surrounding him were a clear testament to that. Some made a move at him and he slipped underneath their grasps just in time to give their general direction a good and firm slice before catching his breath again alert for the next move.]

Tch, the first thing you tell him not to do and he's probably doing it. If you're listening to this, we need to regroup. I know you, stop running ahead! [We can't afford to have you hurt, Allen! Bad things happen when you're hurt! He's moving forward trying to ease up the load of people following him.]

Hotaru, grab your friends and go home. No excuses. Lenalee, wherever you are-

[And he's struck, it sends him flying off somewhere towards the side off-screen. He drops the communicator. It lands just in time to show him struggling to get to his feet. This wasn't looking very good.]

[Naoto had no way of practicing her gun fire. At least at the time she had no idea. But she had found that the Land of Dragon's had training dummies. So, Naoto was as calm as anything as she held her gun up. The civilians staring on, unsure of what exactly Naoto was doing or what exactly the weapon was within her grasp. Firing a round, she lowered the gun, the people keep a good distance as she made her way over towards the dummy, checking to see where she managed to hit. All were close to the center. With a smile Naoto put the gun away and looked on over at the others, taking out her earplugs as she did.]

I apologize for startling you. I assure you, you are all safe, I won't harm a single one of you.

[With this she walked on past before looking back, the people still keeping there distance. She figured that they had no idea what a gun was, but she knew she better not chance teaching them. Who knows what could happen. So instead she just simply bowed to them.]

I apologize again, please do not worry. I'm here to protect you.

[At the second sorry, she turned her head once more, spotting a heartless ion the distance as she pulled out her gun, reloading it and fired.]

[ Albel knew this place too well already. there were people here that he couldn't stand and then people here that he didn't want to even speak with. he hated this place. he hated it more than home.

at least in Airyglyph, he was still "loved" and told how amazing he was even if he had failed. even if he had let the enemy win, he was still the best. unchallenged and undefeated in the eyes of his people. here, there was no one. not even the idiots that he couldn't stand to tell him to do things or the king to give him new missions. nothing.

Albel was on the roof of a building in Traverse Town. he still didn't have anywhere to stay, so he tended to stay wherever he could. after his battle with Aqua, he tried to get as far away from everyone and the tournament as he could. he didn't want to hear about any of it either and made sure that the moogles around him knew that. the wounds and burns that he had gotten from the battle before only seemed to be getting worse. though he had been used to being burned before, he didn't even wince at any of it.

in the darkness, the video showed Albel sitting on the roof as he unstrapped his gauntlet from his arm. he let it fall off with a few quiet clanks as he looked at the bandaged arm underneath. without having anything else to bandage himself with, he began to unravel the top bandages on his arm and then take the wrappings out of his hair. he started to wrap the burns on his leg and his other arm, mumbling to himself angrily ]


Stupid woman. When I get better, I'll slit her throat.

[Edward stands, arms crossed, brows knit in front of a handfull of moogles that surround him in a semi circle. A last, unseen moogle is holding the communicator open, broadcasting this exchange in video. The blonde haired boy's frown is set sternly as he eyes the moogles in front of him silently, almost as if he's trying to absorb what they've just tried to tell him. The moogles fidget uncomfortably under his gaze. Eventually, Ed shouts back at the moogles, the last half of a unheard conversation.]

What the hell do you mean my world is gone!? A whole world can't just disappear over night! [the moogles jump at the outburst but one shakes its head in response, holding up its tiny paws.]

Sorry, Kupo! But it's true... Your world was lost to the darkness. There's nothing you can do right now!

[Ed scowls, his expression twisting slightly as he struggles to hold back the panic that's trying so hard to settle in his stomach. Nothing he can do? He's not about to listen to that.] NOTHING I can do? Do I look like an idiot to you!? What the hell are you anyway? Is Alphonse here? Winry? Did you assholes drag them both into this mess? Tell me where they are, damnit! [The one moogle shakes its head, while the others slink behind him. This guy shouts a little bit too much for them.]

Tch. [He glances down at the hotel key and money in his free hand before clenching it tightly.] Damnit... After all of this, I'm stuck here with no way out? I'm not going to just sit around and wait for something to happen. If you think that's what's going to happen you're wrong!

[Edward glowers up at the floating device recording all of this, and scowls. He says nothing more before reaching up and snatching the device, effectively shutting it off. Giving the moogles one last stern and disapproving glare he shoves the communicator into his pocket and stalks down the street towards the hotel. Passers by might notice a somewhat short statured blonde haired boy in a deep red coat.]

[When Michiru turns on the video, there's something quiet and subdued about her expression. She's trying to keep her emotions in, that much is clear, even behind the carefully schooled expression, the calm, soft way her voice sounds when she speaks.]

Haruka is gone.

[There's no uncertainty in this. She's looked -- searched really -- for the other woman. But, well, it's not a question anymore. She knows.]

I'm sure she'll be all right. Haruka has always been strong. And... [She trails off, summons up something that's almost a smile, and moves to turn the video off.]

[Voice Filtered so Usagi can‘t hear it]

Afternoon, everyone. I hope this message finds you well. I think the party on Saturday will be a fine way for us all to connect with each other and to aide the young lady in not feeling homesick. A birthday is a very special occasion. I only wish I had learned of it sooner so that I could have offered my services in catering. All the same, I might bring a biryani dish!

[Then the message takes on a different twist and is visible by Usagi too]

As I have spoken about with a few of you, I’ve been looking for a new world that I might take up residence on. While Radiant Garden is a remarkable world I think I need a change of scenery. Is there any place you would recommend? I- think I shall rule out the Pridelands..

[There’s the sound of scraping near the communicator before the feed is finally switched to Video]

[Video]

[Looking down at the camera is an elongated muzzle of a zebra. No longer possessing hands, Agni is not at all sure how to use the communicator precisely.. Sounding a touch embarrassed]

Is- this normal? [It doesn’t feel normal at all] Or.. Is it another nefarious enchantment? I- really wasn’t prepared for this. [He stamped his hooves against the ground as he tested his new equine legs] Wherever I settle.. I would prefer to be in my own body, I think.

[Lenalee appears on the feed, her nose and one cheek spattered with a haphazard splotch of what looks like flour. Behind her, the kitchen looks as if it's been under heavy use, but not a disaster zone. Several pots are boiling away on the stove, a cutting board is covered in flour while several small plastic bins are stacked on one another, full of whatever it is she's just finished making.]

This might be a strange question, but has anyone ever made soba noodles from scratch before? [She was sure she knew of several people she'd met through the communicator that had mentioned being from Japan. It WAS a Japanese dish, right?]

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but it doesn't seem to be coming out right. [She lifts a curled finger to her chin, eyes darting off in a direction in thought.] It could be the tsuyu that I'm getting wrong... but that doesn't explain why some of the noodles are sticking together sometimes.

[after a moment of thought she smiles and shrugs her shoulders.] But, if anyone would like to taste test for me, I would appreciate it.

( Two moogles were floating about a red-head who seemed to be giving them strange looks. She had her arms crossed in front of her and by the raised brow and pursed lips, she wasn't exactly in good moods. Regardless, she was pretty polite to the creatures. )

So there's no way back, is that correct?

No, we're really sorry, Kupo.

And there's others stranded here as well?

That's right! We help as best as we can.

That's some job you got there. Don't worry about me, I'll be fine.

Are you sure? Do you need some medical at-

I said I'm fine. ( Her voice was quick. Sharp. Precise. The moogle's hushed and parted ways leaving the woman to look after them before lifting up the communicator. )

This is Natasha Romanoff. Any SHEILD operatives or personnel, report.

[Michiru has taken a break from Agrabah, from the hot sun and the dry air. She's found her way to Traverse Town for the time being. The video turns on to show her with a rather sedate smile on her face.]

It's quiet for the moment. I suppose we should be grateful for that.

I was wondering though, how often do things get so... eventful? Is there usually any warning?

There are people I care about here. I don't want to see them hurt.

[Speaking of.] Haruka? I have a question for you.

[She settles her communicator down on what must be a stone wall of some sort and then steps back a bit.]

Meanwhile, since it is quiet now, I thought, perhaps, it was a good time for some music.

[She lifts a violin then -- the first thing she tracked down and purchased in this place -- and settles it beneath her chin. She lifts the bow, eyes falling mostly shut and slowly the music begins, quiet, but swelling, the melody rolling in regular, powerful rhythms, a bit like the waves on the ocean. She needs this right now, to calm herself down. She's been disturbed by several of the revelations that have come out lately. So at the very least, this will help her clear her mind and think.]
