Arrival

[b-ittersweets.livejournal.com]

[Beyond is standing hunched over on the Astral Plane, looking around and sucking the tip of his index finger in thought. His voice is quiet, from lack of use.]

There is a 30% chance I'm dreaming, and a 69% chance I'm hallucinating.

[After looking around for a while longer, he takes his finger out of his mouth and puts his hand in his pocket, like his other one is, and moves on to more important matters:] Does anyone have...jam? No, no. I've tried that. Ah...perhaps, yes. Yes. Strawberry jam? [A wide grin slowly breaks over his face.]

This...this is an opportunity. It is a break. It has been so long since I had jam. Why is that? Why...is there no sugar? What is the purpose?

[He pauses, putting his hand back in his mouth and chewing the fingernail.]

What are you all doing here?

[he smiles, tipping his hat]

You're left with the last percent, I'm afraid, and the lot of us.

I'm sure at least one of us has jam somewhere. I could nip back home for a jar.

[Beyond turns and looks at the Doctor with a blank look, still sucking his finger]

I am not hallucinating, nor dreaming? [he pauses, considering this] Why am I here?

Jam. Jam is excellent. Do you like jam?

[cheerfully]

Particularly with a nice scone.

This is the astral plane - a sort of nexus between realities.

[Finally, he manages to speak. He's still not sure what to do, though.] ...L? L is here...

[sucre-justice.livejournal.com]

...B. You are...

...I see.

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure this isn't a dream or a hallucination.

[b-ittersweets.livejournal.com]

No? [He stares into space. ...literally. Then he looks over at Andromeda. 'Andromeda Shun'...] Who are you?

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

I'm Shun. [slightly uncomfortable but trying hard not to let that show because that would be rude]

[ Yuyuko floats around him ] Strawberry jam is very good, as is blueberry and blackberry jam~

[b-ittersweets.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes it is. Ah, finally, another soul who appreciates jam. Do you happen to have any~?

[papillon-hante.livejournal.com]

I don't, I'm afraid~. Perhaps I can borrow some from Yukari~. Ran makes jam when the berries are ripe enough.

[frowns; copper recognises a prison uniform when he sees one, even if it is American] What are you doing here?

[b-ittersweets.livejournal.com]

[Has his finger in his mouth, looking a bit above Sam's eyes.] I'm afraid I have no idea. [Noticing the lack of death date, yup. That's weird.] What are you doing here?

[didorothy]

Making an inquiry into the presence of an individual who appears to hail from a prison compound.

[glassboxmemory.livejournal.com]

Jam?

Hm... I don't think I have any of that at home, but I've got ice cream. [Which is totally better than jam. :|b]

[b-ittersweets.livejournal.com]

Ah, ice cream is delicious, yes! Sugar is wonderful. [B disagrees :|]

[glassboxmemory.livejournal.com]

It is! My parents don't think so, but they're always so busy that it doesn't really matter. [But if there was jam on ice cream, Roxas would totally be okay with that. :|]

[bacchusprincess.livejournal.com]

Ah, another one with a sweet tooth~~ [chuckles] How adorable~ [but those eyes are strange...]

[b-ittersweets.livejournal.com]

Adorable? [Has his finger in his mouth, staring.] Who else has a sweet tooth?

[theguv.livejournal.com]

[taking a cue from Tyler and eyeing B up and down] The question should be, the hell are you doing here?

[b-ittersweets.livejournal.com]

[Turns and stares blankly at him. Here's another one with no death date. Huh.] I have absolutely no idea.

[rocketridehome.livejournal.com]

Huh, really? [He tilts his head, with a slight humourless smile.] So what's the one percent left? You actually think this might be real?

[b-ittersweets.livejournal.com]

[Looking at him blankly.] The one percent is the slight possibility that this is something supernatural. And from what I've heard others say, it seems that this is the case.
