Disjointed Ramblings; okay, so that's nothing new

[prince_of_tides]

Still working on Frankenstein. Hey, can I help it if I'm a slow reader?

Talked to Zexion earlier. How's everyone else doing? Axels? Roxas... es? Namine? Auu? Xemnas?

It's too quiet around here, somebody's planning something, I swear. They always are.

Skuld, your sister is weird.

Oh, I prob'ly oughta introduce myself to my roommates eventually. Call me Nocturne.

Hey! It's not polite to call people weird!

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

That's me, cruel but truthful. Besides, normal people are boring.

[changingsuns.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm okay. Haven't heard from either of the Axels in a while. Same with Roxas...

Sora's back, though. And I think Xemnas is gone.

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Zexion said Xemnas had left... huh.

Sora's back? Has he met the, uh, other version of himself yet?

[changingsuns.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I can't feel his darkness anywhere.

...He has. Wanted to meet him in person too.

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Oh, great. If I know Sora - and I know I don't know him as well as you, but still - he's probably gonna try to cheer him up. And something tells me that would be a bad idea.

[changingsuns.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you're telling me. I'll keep an eye on him.

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I didn't almost die saving the kid so he could annoy another version of himself into killing him.

[scarlet-tech.livejournal.com]

Duh.

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Just making an observation.

[scarlet-tech.livejournal.com]

Still a duh.

Though...she is still more normal then oneechan...

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Honestly, what with one thing and another I'd be surprised if I did meet a normal god. Of any gender.

[scarlet-tech.livejournal.com]

Not likely.

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

No kidding. Then again, I've only met gods from two, uh... what is it you call a bunch of gods again? An acropolis or something? It was something Greek or Latin or something...

[scarlet-tech.livejournal.com]

Didn't know we had a specific name. We just went with court or hall or something like that.

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Nah, it was a building in Rome... Pantheon, that was it.

[scarlet-tech.livejournal.com]

...oh, that's right.

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Okay, yeah, so like I said, only met gods from two of those.

[scarlet-tech.livejournal.com]

Of course you meet some of the crazier ones.

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Just my luck, huh?

[scarlet-tech.livejournal.com]

So it seems.

[is-not-right.livejournal.com]

someone is always plotting something. it's never quiet.

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Guess so. It'd be nice to have a break once in a while where you wouldn't have to worry about what'll happen next, though...

[is-not-right.livejournal.com]

yes, it would...

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Hey, don't think we've met. Call me Nocturne.

[is-not-right.livejournal.com]

we haven't. River.

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

That's a nice name. Nice to meet you, River.

[is-not-right.livejournal.com]

you play?

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Sitar, yeah. Well, anything with strings, really, but mostly sitar.

[is-not-right.livejournal.com]

I'd like to hear, sometime.

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't mind at all. I'm kind of a show-off, honestly.

[is-not-right.livejournal.com]

music flowing like water from your fingers, is that it?

what can you play?

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Heh, the girl's good.

You mean instruments or songs?

[is-not-right.livejournal.com]

songs.

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

At the risk of sounding like a bad stand-up comic, if I try to list all the songs I know, I'll be here all week. Can't say I know all of them by a long shot, but still.

[is-not-right.livejournal.com]

shubert's notturno?

[Voice]

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Shoot, haven't played that one in ages. Let's see, if I'm remembering right, it goes like this...

*starts playing*

[Voice]

[is-not-right.livejournal.com]

[river is quiet while she listens; silent, in fact. she doesn't make a sound til she's sure he's done.]

... you're very good. it's beautiful.

Re: [Voice]

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Thanks. It's mostly just lots of practice - I've been playing almost since I could talk.

Re: [Voice]

[is-not-right.livejournal.com]

I'd like to watch you.

Re: [Voice]

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Really? Hm... You want to meet somewhere, then?

Re: [Voice]

[is-not-right.livejournal.com]

if it's okay. it's like... watching ripples across the water. is more exhilarating in person than over this line.

Re: [Voice]

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

I... think I understand. Where do you want to meet, then?

If I didn't know better, I'd swear she knows me better than she's got any right to...

((OOC: Strikes illegible.))

Re: [Voice]

[is-not-right.livejournal.com]

somewhere conducive of your music. the pond in the park?

Re: [Voice]

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Sure. Haven't got anything pressing going on; you have any problem with meeting now?

How in the name of every god does she know this stuff?

Re: [Voice]

[is-not-right.livejournal.com]

now is good for me.

thank you for meeting me, nocturne. I'll see you there.

Re: [Voice]

[nocturncoat.livejournal.com]

Right. See you there, River.
