1st sin - [accidental audio]

[shiningbinds]

[There's only silence at first, aside from some very quiet background noise. After a few moments though, a deep voice speaks, sounding more than a little disoriented.]

Lloyd...

Comments

[corrinesbell]

[...

No way.]

Kratos?

[shiningbinds.livejournal.com]

...

Sheena... hm.

[corrinesbell]

[And here she figured you were just never coming back! ...It really hammers home how long she's been here, though. Again.]

You're...uh, where are you?

[shiningbinds.livejournal.com]

There appears to be a fountain nearby.

It is safe to assume that you know more about this place than I, correct?

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

Nope! You're speakin' to Selphie.

Need a hand at all?

[shiningbinds.livejournal.com]

...I might.

Do you know our location?

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

This place is called Luceti.

[shiningbinds.livejournal.com]

Luceti... hm.

[Voice]

[fortunefail]

[There's no mistaking that voice. Yuan isn't sure how he feels about this turn of events.]

... You're wasting your time. He's not here.

[Voice]

[shiningbinds.livejournal.com]

...Yuan.

What have you done with him?

[Voice]

[fortunefail]

[Yuan definitely picks up on it, and while any other person might be hurt, he knows damn well that he deserves such mistrust after everything he's done to Kratos over the years. What bugs Yuan more is that this means Kratos doesn't remember the years spent in Luceti before.]

You're awfully quick to jump to conclusions, aren't you? I haven't done anything.

[Voice]

[shiningbinds.livejournal.com]

How can I not, after what just transpired?

[voice] (1/2)

[seraphgoddess.livejournal.com]

[ It was only one spoken word, but there was no mistaking of that voice. ]

Kratos?

[voice] (2/2)

[seraphgoddess.livejournal.com]

[ Her shock is overcome with happiness. Relations with Yuan and Mithos weren't going well so maybe things will get better with Kratos around. He always was the calmest of the four of them. ]

Kratos, is that really you?! I'm so happy that you're here too! Well, not that I'm saying that it's good that you're trapped in this city as well, but it's comforting to know that I'm surrounded by more friends!

[voice]

[shiningbinds.livejournal.com]

...how is this possible?

[voice]

[seraphgoddess.livejournal.com]

[ Oh right. She's supposed to be dead. ]

I asked myself the same question . . . But it is what it is. This world is prone to doing the impossible.

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

Lloyd... do you mean Lloyd Irving?

[Voice]

[shiningbinds.livejournal.com]

Yes, you could say that. How do you know of him?

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

We're from the same world. I, um... we met just before I was brought here.

[Yeah, he's not going to go into details about how he used to hate Lloyd's guts before he found out the truth.]

[Voice]

[lezareno_prez]

[Well, there's a voice he hasn't heard in a long time.]

I'm afraid you won't find Lloyd here, but there is no need to worry-- he is safe where he is.

[Voice]

[shiningbinds.livejournal.com]

...hm. If you are certain.

[Voice]

[lezareno_prez]

Before I say anything else, may I ask what the last thing that happened in our world was?

[Voice]

[not-klonoa.livejournal.com]

[That voice sends a jolt through Presea's body, to the point of her dropping the pot she washing and positively rushing to her open journal. She hadn't heard Kratos' voice in so long, but the memories she had of him were still strong enough to show in her actions. A huge sense of fear and excitement welled up in her chest, and Presea's voice was constricted for a second or two.

Daddy.

That's...what she called him once, wasn't it? He reminded her of her own father, long ago, and he even freed her, too.

She never got to thank him.]

K-Kratos...?

[Voice]

[shiningbinds.livejournal.com]

...yes.

[Voice]

[not-klonoa.livejournal.com]

[During the silence, Presea could feel her heart begin to beat a bit faster, and her breathing increase. Was that...fear? Why was she scared so suddenly? And now, too. She was suddenly so, so scared...but Presea couldn't place why. She just guessed she was concerned for Kratos' safety, really.]

Are...are you unharmed? Can you describe your present location? ...I will find you, if others have not yet done so. [And if they have, she just...wants to see him. Very bad.]
