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.

"Uh, it's a little too friendly for some people," Kyo shot back with a wry look. That "innocent" tone wasn't getting past him, Maraich. He knew the man too well. But at least Kyo was right up there with his friend in that he didn't know much of what was going on either. Just these guys were looking for something and it was here. So... not much to go on.

"Apparently. Maybe Atia started a trend or something," the cat muttered. He listened in on the conversation, trying to plug in pieces from what he'd heard last night. It still didn't get too indepth, but whatever, something was better than nothing.

"LIKE HELL I WOULD!" he spazzed. Dammit, Maraich! Don't imply stuff like that! He was just talking and it slipped out that way. Sheesh!

Not that it stopped him from giving Cloud an arched brow and strange expression. "That sounds like you have experience in that... or you're already prepped for it," he said, not at all sounding he was a proponent of the choice. Shoving someone in drag was... yeah. Especially if he suspected Cloud didn't like it.

He glanced back to K'pandolu when she huffed at him, and offered a shrug as his expression twisted. "We've had some strange events on this island. You never know." Kyo was still curious about her... this girl had ears and a tail. "Hey, don't just go volunteering people to get put in drag!"

"This'd be the third world I've visited, I guess. I got dragged to a different one before Crystallizes. it was kinda like my home planet of Earth, but... really fucked up, 'n far in the future. 1300 years in its future."

Johnny shrugged, not sure what else to say about it. He really didn't like talking about Exsilium if he could help it.

"I'm startin' to think there ain't a world in all of creation that ain't fucked up in some way. This one, though. It's, um. It certainly win a prize for most creatively fucked up."

In answer to Maraich's question, though, he shook his head. "Man, I wish. Otherwise, I'd keep lookin' for some place normal anyway. The way we got here is kinda complicated. Meanin' I don't even really know why it's happening. Not exactly anyway."

"Yeah... we didn't really have much of a choice." Reno rubbed the back of his neck. "There's not even a guarantee the portal we came through will be there when we go back. Might've moved."

It still had to exist, though, somewhere. Somehow. Reno had to believe that after seeing what he'd seen. The Interdimensional Rift had countless portals to worlds, existed between and among all of them. Even if people couldn't see a portal, one must always exist somehow...

"If we had control of 'em, we sure as hell would use 'em differently," Reno scoffed.

In a way, the banter was nice, though. A strange normalcy among the insanity that was crossing worlds -- and just being in Atia at all. It made things considerably easier to manage. So he'd let K'pandolu shop, he let Johnny shop, because it was a happy bit of sanity. He chuckled softly at Cloud's cross-dressing expense, giving a reassuring squeeze to his shoulder as he remembered how ready he was to kill Jack Harkness for being a little too interested. How he did try to kill the thirteen moogles and the avatar that had possessed Cloud as their evil mouthpiece. If Cloud in drag would solve anything, they'd have seen a result by now.

"Find something you like," he told K'pandolu and Johnny. "I'll get it." He didn't expect to have future use for his amat anyway.

"Well, if they try that they'll sound find themselves on the wrong side of my needle," K'pandolu said, hands on her hips for a moment. She brought one hand up to hide her laugh. "But he'd look so good in it!" she exclaimed, ears twitched up. Maybe, maybe not. But it was amusing to watch Kyo's reaction.

She nodded, to back up the others' points about the portals.

She beamed at Reno in return, clapping her hands together. "That's most kind of you," she chirped, and tilted her head to the side, tail flicking. "Let's see, then… this shouldn't be something plain." She turned to the racks to pick out a few bottoms and tops, holding them up to check before nodding and heading to try them on.

"Third?" Kyo echoed, glancing over his shoulder at Johnny. He frowned at the explanation, but couldn't really argue anything against it. From one world to the next, a different place from Earth, or a different version. The shrug was about all the comment he'd be able to give to.

Though he did snort at the mention of a world being fucked up. "Duh. There's nothing perfect," he retorted. Kyo's face flattened. "Careful or the Bitch is gonna think you're complimenting her." As curious as he was, Johnny answered his question about how the group had arrived on Amat.

"That sounds great," Kyo droned sarcastically when Reno mentioned their forced trip here. Not having a choice even. He knew about that and hated it when confronted with something like that. "Right, but whoever is controlling them probably doesn't want anyone having that kind of power. If anyone's actually controlling the damn things..."

At Reno's offer to purchase his friends clothes, Kyo offered a little "heh" and nudged him in the ribs. "Softie," he murmured between the two of them. But did his best not to draw any attention to the action.

"Needle?" He glanced over to K'pandolu again, one orange brow cocked in curiosity (and maybe some caution). Though it dropped again when she pushed the issue about the clothes. "That doesn't matter! It's his choice!" Of course, considering the pink on his face, he might just be embarrassed more than personally affronted.

Though finally his curiosity got the better of him and he picked up one of the items on the rack next to her. "So... uh... the ears and tail? I guess that's natural for you?" Excuse his social skills, but how else was he going to broach the topic?

"Can't blame me for asking..." he murmured at Kyo. After all, 'booby-trap' was a little too on the nose.

But he seemed a bit taken by Miss Kitty, so Maraich took a moment to step closer to Reno, leaning in to whisper privately and quietly between themselves. "Level with me. Would it be worth it to find this portal and try to go with you?"

Maraich knew what this island was like. The collar, the sex, the weird happenings... It could be unbearable at times. Still, he wasn't so naive to think that there couldn't be worse out there. Or, it could be better, and it might be an opportunity to attempt to flee with friends.

"We wouldn't want that," K'pandolu murmured, listening to Kyo's comment about Atia, her eyebrows drawing in.

She grinned at him when he next looked at her, confident. "I'm something of a weaver," she said, raising one hand. "Able to take apart clothwork just as well as put it together. And she giggled, hiding her mouth behind one hand- perhaps she shouldn't push so much, but his reaction was definitely worth it. "Of course, of course."

She flicked an ear towards him as he came up next to her and nodded. "That's right. Just like those rounded ears are normal for you, correct?"

"I can try," he retorted to Maraich with a little grin. But yeah, in this place that probably wasn't the best description to use; they might just end up finding out it was literal. But since Maraich was going to slide over and take a private conversation with Reno, Kyo shifted his attention elsewhere, namely the person he'd been curious about for a while now. Everyone would have to deal with this crazy world soon enough.

"A weaver?" Kyo echoed and looked down at her lifted hand. "That explains the needle." His mind was doing a mental image and it was pretty odd... and interesting at the same time. Since she didn't push the topic, his hackles died away, replaced by a calmer look.

"Uh... I guess?" Odd to think his "rounded ears" were "normal" for him. Didn't exactly come from a place where him being human was considered "normal" in the sense there were non humans around. "Just never saw someone like you before."

Cloud nodded at Reno, appreciating the support, but as Maraich wound his way over, the blonde politely removed himself from that area. He wandered back over to where K'pandolu and Kyo were talking. Even with her jokes he still knew she wasn't about to play any tricks on him, or at least not anything that crossed a line, and Kyo seemed nice enough too.

"It was a little surprising when I met her too. There's some talking animals in my world, but nothing like her. Still, it seems our two worlds are more similar than some of the ones the others we know are from. What about you? Does your world have chocobos or horses?"

"All tools have their place," K'pandolu said, with a grin.

She nodded, expression turning thoughtful. "So- no miqo'te have turned up here before. That's… probably for the best." She couldn't think any of the miqo'te she knew- family or not- would take to this place to easily.

She gave Cloud a smile when he approached, ears picking up. "Talking animals? You never mentioned that before!" But she went quiet, looking back to Kyo to hear his answer to Cloud's question.

Reno glanced at Maraich, somewhat surprised at the question. It made sense, though. Few people actually enjoyed being here. Even for those that tolerated it better than others, Reno was still convinced they'd rather do without the collars.

"Well, their entire world is sort of in imminent danger," he answered softly. "Like, I wouldn't mind takin' ya, but we dunno what's gonna stop the planet from turnin' t' crystal yet. If it was sex, I woulda' found that out already."

So if Maraich did decide to come, he would have to deal with that. It was slightly more stressful than most people wanted to deal with, including the people who were already there.

Cloud glanced back at K'pandolu and shrugged, "They're not really...common? And I haven't really technically met the one I'm thinking of yet. I just know about him because of the others and the thoughts that the Other Me had." He made his reply brief, not wanting to steamroll over Kyo.
