Halloween... That time of year already, huh?

[His voice seems to hitch for a brief moment, but otherwise he doesn't really hint at anything else.]

How many of you celebrate it back in your own worlds?

[Locked to Aqua, Demyx, Kairi, Lea]

A lot of those from our Worlds have left recently. I just wanted to say- [He swallows hard.]

If I disappear next, there's a journal in my room. In it are reports on all that's happened both at home and here. Kairi, Aqua... You both especially deserve to know. As does Sora...

[Locked to Jacob, Mami]

Thanks for helping me to see the Light.

Is he a friend from home?

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

It's fine. [He chuckles.] Trick-or-treating is something normally little kids do: going to one another's houses and getting candy as a treat. ...The fun part was the 'trick.'

[...Uh oh.]

[Filtered to Jacob]

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

Yeah... I am, too.

[Voice]

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

Yeah. My best friend, who's been away for a while.

But I know I'll see him again. [He'll make sure of it.]

voice;

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

That it is. [He chuckles.] Though we scare more than just the kids back home.

I never really heard of it until I was recruited into the Organization. This is only the third or fourth time I've celebrated it too, but last year was really wonky.

...Don't talk like that, dude. I already got enough heartache, I dont wanna think about you disappearing on me, y'know?

voice;

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

Do I want to know what happened?

[Filtered]

[He's silent for a moment, minus the sound of pages flipping.] ...Sorry, Demyx.

Halloween? What exactly is that anyway?

_{[As far as she's seen, it seems like a really strange celebration.]}

[Video]

[glidingheart.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I'm sure I'll see Terra again too!

[nos-servabit.livejournal.com]

You are feeling better, I hope? Nothing continues to bother you?

[swordofswans.livejournal.com]

Ah, I see. And what is it that made the tricks most fun?

_{[He is more disapproving than suspicious of anything in particular.]}

voice;

[foodchewing.livejournal.com]

Hm? Who else do you scare?

[Do tell...]

[Video]

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

Hm. Friends always find a way.

[glidingheart.livejournal.com]

Yes. We will.

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

The simple fact that they're practical jokes. Nothing too serious, just the little things... and scaring the adults and kids alike with our costumes.

[Y u disapprove of island funtimes, man.]

[Filtered to Jacob]

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

Nothing aside from being homesick. [He sighs.] ... I'll be alright.

voice;

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

Everyone.

[The only sad thing is now he can scare himself. How crazy is that?]

voice;

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

[...Whoa, holy crap. Don't mind him, pausing for one long as hell span of time. If he wasn't an only child, he'd probably not have some serious questions about this. Oh, who is he kidding. It's got him shocked into a brief spell of silence. 'Why does this person-?']

...It's a holiday celebrated in other worlds. In some it's a way to respect those who've passed on, while in others it was originally a tradition to ward off evil spirits.

[...Which gets a nervous chuckle from him.] Guess the Bubble takes it as a holiday for pranks and fun.

[Why do you look like me?]

_{[She looks like you? But she doesn't see you, so she doesn't know. The pause does surprise her though.]}

Is everything okay?

_{[She smiles a little more though.]}

Ah, but in any case, never heard of a holiday like that back home...

_{[She looks really interested now.]}

Can you tell me something more about it?

voice;

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

[He can't help it, even with having met his replica. Maybe after the initial shock, he'll switch to video, but for right now...]

Yeah, everything's fine. [a beat.] What would you like to know?

voice;

[travelingintime.livejournal.com]

Hm... Well, you said something about pranks...

voice;

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

[He chuckles a bit.] Back home, we used to pull practical jokes on each other all throughout the night trying to scare everyone for laughs.

Not much to do there otherwise, so we improvised.

[travelingintime.livejournal.com]

That means... you and your friends? _{[She smiles a bit.]} That sounds like fun.

<sub>[She's lived alone for so long, this kind of thing sounded like a lot of fun to her.

She makes a curious look.]</sub>

What kinda place did you live in?

[swordofswans.livejournal.com]

<sub>[He still does not trust this holiday, that's why. Every fiber of his being seeks to reject monsters and darkness, a celebration based around them is still an idea he has trouble dealing with.

Still, Riku's answer is reassuring.]</sub>

So it is all done with good spirits... That is well enough, then. I suppose it will happen here, as well?

_{[Best to be prepared, after all.]}

voice;

[foodchewing.livejournal.com]

[Pretty crazy.]

You must've lived with some scaredy-cats, then.
