A familiar sight, this endless black expanse illuminated only by stars. Neither of light nor of darkness, but a place of twilight. Though Never Was and Oblivion come to mind, there is something which seems to render all such comparisons meaningless. A sense of unreality among the security of what is known. I would not be the least bit surprised if it turns out to be mere theatrics, done simply to add to the air of mystique. And I would feel the same if it was in actuality the key to unraveling the mystery of this "Astral Plane."

Of course, that is not to say I thought our meeting a triviality, Meredith. It was so very...informative.

If the nature of our surroundings cannot be relied on, then only the self can be trusted. For this place is not empty. Among the faces here may be found allies and enemies, both unknown and known.

But there will always be change.

There will always be plots.

And there will always be treachery.

[applause] Oh, very good, very well done! You'd give anyone on the High Council a run for his money. Purple prose pontification with hints of actual meaning behind it; I am impressed. I liked that last bit particularly. Three lines, stand-alones, similar patterns, leads to a nice sort of artistic feel, don't you think?

[B| Guess who doesn't look too pleased]

Are you enjoying yourself, XI?

[OOC: So I herd I'm on hiatus and will pwn you at being slow on tags. Very, very slow. sjkhs ;D]

[just a hint of a smirk. oh sarcasm]

All the more now that I've found our highly esteemed scientist.

[Oh, Roxas sees another one of these men in black cloaks. He's eyeing Marluxia rather warily; he's still paranoid about being on the Astral Plane again. But does he know him too?]

[rosenoblivion.livejournal.com]

Really. But I assure you I was not striving for artistry.

[egads, he really does talk like that to himself]

[rosenoblivion.livejournal.com]

XIII.

[glassboxmemory.livejournal.com]

You too, eh? Care to give me a name?

[rosenoblivion.livejournal.com]

Though names and ranks both mean so little, surely you could not have forgotten so easily?

[glassboxmemory.livejournal.com]

Apparently I did. At least, that's what everyone else says.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

And just what are you planning to do here? [Hm, is that suspicion? Why, yes it is.]

I doubt experiments hold much interest for you.

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

[faint smile]

I believe you've just summed up most of the universe.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

[as does he! Twin terrors of pontification!] A natural talent, then. Even more impressive. [and pops a jelly baby into his mouth]

[rosenoblivion.livejournal.com]

Most, you say? Then is there some other place where it does not apply?

[rosenoblivion.livejournal.com]

Such trust is almost admirable. Marluxia, XI of the Organization.

[rosenoblivion.livejournal.com]

Ah, that does remind me...whatever happened to your replica?

(OOC: totally didn't delete the last comment just to use this icon instead. can i assume these two come from the time between floors 7 and 10 in Sora's story?)

[rosenoblivion.livejournal.com]

[they should get along like a house on fire: with lots of people running and screaming around them~] Mm. It does go to waste so often. But I see it shall not be the same here.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

You know perfectly well.

[OOC: No worries, I do that all the time. XD; And yep.]

[rosenoblivion.livejournal.com]

Of course. But I am not the one who shall be affected the most should it...fail.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

[Nothing wrong with a little running and screaming! The Master glances over Marluxia, chewing on the jelly baby. When finished, he speaks (for he has proper manners)]

I've definitely seen that choice of clothing before. Aside from cults, I mean, because you get a lot of this sort of clothing at cults. It's almost tragic.

[rosenoblivion.livejournal.com]

Did you manage to catch their names?

[auroredor.livejournal.com]

The world cannot be spoken of in a single color.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

Keep to your own concerns- You've already had more than your say on matters regarding the replica.

[rosenoblivion.livejournal.com]

Mm. And yet, I would not have to say so much if the words were listened to the first time around.

[rosenoblivion.livejournal.com]

White or black, light or darkness. Even in between, it is inevitable conflicts will arise from the clashing of natures.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

You may be in charge of Oblivion, but my rank still exceeds yours. That and the fact that the replica is one of my creations- I would know how to handle it, as well as how to understand the data and correct any potential mistakes; One failure during it's trial is easily corrected with a second test.

Don't make demands when you can't even understand the premise behind them.
