Characters: All the Heroes of Light and their Moogles.
Where: Order's Sanctuary, The Interdimensional Rift and their Homeworlds.
When: August 03rd - August 30th

Summary: Following the battle against Palitutu, all the Heroes of Light were transported into the Interdimensional Rift. They were told by Palitutu they would have to find her to prove they can break the cycle-- But before they could reach their destination, a malevolent entity from the Rift stripped them from their immortality...

And now, they woke up in a decaying and dying world, most specifically in a place called Order's Sanctuary. From there they are ready to jump... Into their homeworlds! Feel free to use this post for the Mingle at Order's Sanctuary and should your homeworld be the stage for the Heroes of Lights' next adventures, feel free to make a thread for it and as many sub-thread as necessary! Please refer to the OOC Post for questions and plotting.

Warning: Whatever you come up with.

Re: Sheena and Corrine - OTA

[bloodypast]

Sheena had best be prepared as she's getting her bearings, because there is a flying ball of fluff trailing a long red-scarf beelining for her in a hug. "SHEEEEEEEEEEEENA!" Ophelia latches onto her arm. They aren't the closest, but she knows Sheena is friends with Vincent, and Ophelia liked her. This is so not what she was expecting, any of it.

Fortunately Ophelia's Hero of Light isn't too far behind her, even if he's walking over at a more sedate pace. Mostly to keep track of her more than anything else. Once he's closer, Vincent will just nod his head in greeting at her; presumably she's alright. They all seem to be 'alright', physically at least.

[ninjainviolet]

Luckily, Sheena spots the flying ball of fur, so she has time to brace herself for the hug. Corrine settles on the ninja's shoulder as Sheena wraps an arm about Ophelia and hugs her close. "Ophelia! It's okay! I'm all right! Are you and Vincent okay?"

Her second question is answered visually as her friend comes closer. She had seen him change, and while that may have bothered some people, it doesn't Sheena. Vincent is Vincent on the inside, and that's all that matters. As for being all right, Sheena's still a little mentally numb by being in the Void and then somewhere else to worry about anything other than the physical. Shaking her head in disbelief at her friend, she continues hugging his Moogle, while tilting her head to rest against Corrine.

"Why did whoever that was have to scare these guys like this?" There's a note of anger there which anyone can pick up.

[bloodypast]

Ophelia will happily hug her tighter, and while she's less shakey and trying to be brave, she's worried for all of them. It was...for the first time ever Ophelia had been scared being a Hero's companion. She wasn't giving it up, but it had been been unsettling.

Vincent looks as he usually did, no hint of the demonic being he'd become from pain and anger. His head tilts as Sheena shakes her head, silent question asking for clarification. Then a pause, before speaking softly.

"It may not have been intentional. The moogles have always been keepers of our crystals, so they may not have had a choice."

[ninjainviolet]

Her nurturing instincts at full force, Sheena will just keep a hold of both Moogles right now. Both of them are still shaking against her, and she's not going to let them go until she knows they'll both be all right. A soft "kupo" sounds in her ear, and she basically nuzzles Corrine with a light stroke of her head to let him know she's still there.

Poor thing hadn't even been this scared when he went into battle last year.

Her brows knitting together, she thinks back to what happened in the Void. "You mean they're connected to the Crystals, too?" Her eyes widen as a thought strikes her. "Is that why they can change the jobs stored in there?"

[bloodypast]

"It's only a hypothesis." But it made sense to him, given the high presence of moogles around their Heroes, and why the companions had been drawn into the void too, and then here. Wherever here was.

"This place is not familiar to you either." It's a statement, rather than a question. Also answering for himself, as he does not know where they are.

[ninjainviolet]

"If they're connected to the Crystals the same way we are...then they've always been waiting for us to arrive?" That was actually a depressing thought because what if their "hero" never showed up for some reason or another? Or fell into stasis just as quickly as they arrived?

Would the connection be broken? Or would they have to wait and hope?

She shook her head. "Not in the least," she confirmed. "And judging from some of the expressions on others...I don't think we're alone in that."

[bloodypast]

"Again, it is only a hypothesis." Which, as Vincent was looking around, and noted Cloud in the distance--was disproven. "Disproven already, as somehow there is a chocobo here as well." Likely belonging to Cloud, given the proximity.

"I'm not the only one probably trying to take a head-count as well." Considering his memories of the end of the battle were scattered, before they were brought to the void, then here. "What do you remember prior to the darkness?"

[ninjainviolet]

"There is?" And she looked around until she saw Zack across the...whatever space they were in. "Well, what do you know? Unless..." She thought a moment. "Aren't Chocobos connected to their knights in some way? If so, then it isn't the crystal, but us that brought the Moogles here, since we're connected to each other by the crystal."

And as she looked, she was searching for a certain two men--one silver-haired and one brunette--only to nod sheepishly at Vincet's comment. "I've been trying to do that since we got here, but there are so many of us, I can't tell who's here or if I've already counted them. As for what I remember... The last thing I recall was getting Sepiroth and Jade out of the crater and collapsing just as Ultima began falling apart." She looked at him quizzically.

"What do you remember?"

[bloodypast]

A slow blink of crimson-eyes, Vincent quiet as he tried to sort through the scattered memories of Chaos. "I remember waking up, only to be aware shortly that he was coming to the fore. I remember getting Lucrecia to the back, and then the rest is filtered through memories tinted by inhuman rage and anger."

Softly said, and it said much about his priorities. Not that Sheena hadn't already tried to sleuth it out of him how he felt about Dr. Crescent. If anything, this was likely just more confirmation to her.

"Chaos was...focused on the Weapon. I have vague-memories of being aware of the earthquake, and potential danger the others were in. But nothing is clear or clearly my own memory and viewpoint until we found ourselves in the darkness." When there had been too much going on to make clear sense of things, along with the disorientation from his transformation back. Not to mention Ophelia suddenly having appeared and clinging to him, where she was normally much more brave and curious.

[ninjainviolet]

Sheena nodded. She recalled seeing the change her friend went through and how he had helped Lucrecia, but after that, she had lost track of him for a little bit. But he's right in how his actions like that had been perceived by her. To her credit, she didn't let that confirmation of her theory show in her eyes or her expression as he continued.

"I think we all were all focused on it by that point," she mused quietly. His words, however, caused her brows to knit together slightly.

"Vincent, you talk about Chaos like he's another person. Another person who's a part of you. Is that what's going on?" She rested a hand on his arm, concerned.

[bloodypast]

Crimson-eyes narrowed slightly as Sheena touched him; mostly because he wasn't a very touchy-feely-person. A sign that he did value her friendship, in that he waited a heartbeat before taking enough of a step back to lose the contact. "It is complicated."

But he knew that would not be enough--Sheena was too much like Yuffie and Tifa both, in her stubborn-side. She also considered him a friend--and while the sentiment was somewhat returned, Vincent was still a private person overall.

"Chaos is not exactly a person, so much as a force of nature personified." A sigh, and Ophelia fluttered over to cling to his shoulder. Bringing his arm up to let the moogle cling, he continued quietly. "It is sealed within me, and is the only reason I am alive after my own folly and much experimentation upon by a madman."
