Introduction

[grimgrinningghosts]

[You wake up in a bed.

A rather comfy bed, but as you open your eyes, you realize that this room is not one you’ve ever been in before. And even the most villainous of you should notice that something is immediately very off by how morbid your room looks. While generally clean, it looked dark and like it was a part of a very old house.

And that “Rest in Peace” throw pillow really isn’t doing the room any favors.

Meanwhile, on the dresser on top of your new notebook, there is also a message:]

When the clock strikes 13 o’clock. You must all meet in the stretching room for a special announcement.

[Well, it would be rude to refuse an invitation, right?

As soon as you leave your room, you notice a stark difference between the bedroom and the rest of the building. It looked like it hadn’t been kept up in ages, and it shows with how everything is caked in dust or covered in cobwebs. But judging by the other bedroom doors, possibly with other people peering out at the same time you, at least you’re not alone in this strange situation.

As you explore the rest of the first floor of the mansion, you’ll come to realize that, besides the bedrooms, the whole place is rather decrepit and dimly lit. While all rooms may provide a great interest in you, the the bios of all your foolish mortals might be useful to you, especially if you enjoy finding out how much your new captor has learned about you.]

It's alright. I got it back. Really... showed the crab that took it who was boss.

[He definitely didn't get his butt handed to him in the process, or anything.]

Anyway. Hope you find whatever it is that you lost, too.

[ There's a flicker of sadness in her expression, but she quickly hides that with a not so convincing smile. ]

It's okay. I don't think I'll be finding it here.

[ There's no way Axel or Sora or Riku could be brought here, after all... right? Out of all the names on those doors, theirs are missing. ]

[wannagetsmote]

You might be surprised? [Oh god how does he do this?]

What are you looking for? If you're looking for my hook, the least I can do is -- [Maui don't do it, the last time you helped a little girl, you almost got punched in the face by a lava monster.] -- help you look for whatever it is you can't find.

[chainbroke]

Oh... it's nothing like your fish hook. It's... not an item.

[ She looks down. ]

It's... people. Friends.

[wannagetsmote]

Friends? [Maui looked legitimately surprised. He'd had a number of physical possessions that he valued but... people he cared about? Those were few and far between. It was almost impossible for him to comprehend such an idea, and perhaps he might have questioned her further, if not for the clearing of a throat that only he could hear.

Right.]

I... think I get what you're saying. I'd be lost without the little guy. [He brushed his hair aside, leaving Mini Maui to wave to the small blonde.]

[chainbroke]

Not... not a lot of friends. But... they're important, all the same.

[ She sounds... incredibly sad when she talks. Naminé blinks, though. ]

Oh, hello, [ she says, waving. Then, to Maui: ] He looks just like you.
