hey. i'm one of the new people who woke up in the monster hospital.
thanks for coming to get us.
i've already talked to some of you but i guess i should introduce myself anyway.
i'm roxas and i'm from the same place as sora and riku.

[And he's not at all used used to openly talking to...anybody...but it's apparently the thing to do here, and the network is literally in his head, so he forges past his discomfort.]

people have already been answering the questions i figure most of us had after we got here but i have a few extras.

1. some of us were in the hospital a really long time.
we didn't just show up there right before you guys came to rescue us but no one knew.
is there a chance there could be other spots where more displaced people are trapped?

2. i keep getting a lot of stuff from UNA.
i guess they want to recruit me?
they think my parents died in the emp attack. they must like orphans.
is there a way to make it stop? it is really annoying.

3. what's the highest place in the city a person can get to?
it's okay if i need to climb to get to it.
i just can't open a corridor to go there directly anymore.

4. i'm already looking for stuff myself but if anyone knows about a good way to find a job if you've never had one before i guess that'd be good.
well...i have had a job but nothing i got paid for. otherwise i only remember doing odd jobs for a day.
i don't care that much about munny but i've got too much free time now.

that's all.

I know Sora and Riku! I know Dawn too, did you know him? He's Riku's twin, he's missing now and I'm wondering if maybe he's being held at one of these other places the Displaced could be now that you mention it so point number one begs investigating and the UNA are really shitty people who shot me and killed a friend of mine (he's ok now) so maybe there's a filter option to put them right in the trash so that you can focus on SCHOOL before WORK like I'm trying to get Riku and Sora to do but they're also hard workers and should rely on their seniors a little more because that's what we're here for!

[ there's no punctuation, enjoy ]

[recompleted]

[He doesn't mind the lack of punctuation, but it does take him a couple of minutes to read and parse the string of thoughts. Perhaps his own lack of capitalization makes this a destined friendship.]

i didn't know he had a twin but i'm not really surprised.
actually i look a lot like sora too except for our hair.
anyway that's what i'm worried about.
i was with my friends before and if they're somewhere here too i have to help them.
i'm not going to join up with anyone so i will look for a filter then thanks.
not going to school.

[laozu]

Rest assured, we'll find a way to help everyone or my surname isn't

Mo! [ it's wei, but gotta' go with the cover story ]

WHOA WAIT, WE'LL COME BACK TO THE REST IN A SECOND BUT LET ME JUST SAY!!! You should go to school, it's easy and online and it will help you acquire a better job. You're young, aren't you? There's probably not much in terms of occupational options for you up front, so you might as well put your free time to good use. Listen to your new senior, who despised the classroom setting in his own youth and is now advising you on this. (`へ´*)ノ (`へ´*)ノ (`へ´*)ノ

RE: 1. People disappear sometimes. No one knows where they go when it happens. Sometimes they show back up in their beds like it's nothing. Sometimes they go home for a bit. Some of them we haven't seen since.

So yes, I'd say it's very possible.

RE: 2. They do like orphans. They like anyone they can take advantage of. DON'T talk to them.

[recompleted]

that's what i was a afraid of. doesn't anyone look for them?

i'm not going to. i'm done with people trying to use me. i just want them to shut up.

[forcevisions]

Of course we look for them. But we don't have much of a lead to follow. Cassius' message, the one that led to the new arrivals, was the first near-confirmation we've gotten that they're still on Earth.

@nill.klein

[culver]

Have you been to a lot of worlds like them, then?

1. Probably. We never seem to find out that new displaced are here until a while after they've been in this world, so I think it's likely.

2. Have you tried blocking them? I think you can do that with the implants.

3. Probably the Vyonation building. It's over 100 stories high, I think. And I'm pretty sure there's an elevator. Why?

4. There are a lot of odd jobs to do here. It's really easy to get a job as a courier or in a grocery store. I'm a courier sometimes when business is slow.

[recompleted]

yeah lots
not with them but we've been to a lot of the same places

1. i don't like that. if people are here and need help we should be trying to find them.

2. i didn't know i could do that. i'll give it a try.

3. i just like being in high places. me and my friends used to spend a lot of time sitting at the edge of this clock tower.

4. like delivering stuff? do they have skateboards here?

[culver]

That's neat. I've been to a couple worlds too.

1. We should. But I don't know where we'd start to look. New displaced always show up in different places.

3. That sounds incredibly dangerous. But I bet the view is great from up there.

4. Yeah, there's always stuff to deliver. And I there are hoverboards, which are like a skateboard but without the wheels.

@riku.masterson

[inherited]

There are a lot of skyscrapers, but you won't need to climb to get to the top.

[Debating.

... Debating ...]

I could take you up to one.

[Heights don't appeal to him as much as the river down the center of the city. But they don't bother him, either.]

[recompleted]

[He is and isn't surprised by the offer. Mostly, he's curious—from what he remembers, Riku would have even less access to the dark corridors than he does, so that can't be the way.]

yeah?
how?

[inherited]

[Here it goes.]

Ever heard of an elevator?

@ren.amamiya

[variate]

If you've had odd jobs, you probably have a pretty diverse resume. Just go for something that you enjoyed doing when you did them, and see if you like it.

Why are you getting things from the UNA?

[recompleted]

i was pretty good at delivering the mail on a skateboard.

[He's...he's not sure if that's an option here.]

you know the fake backgrounds they gave us? i think something about mine must make them think i'd be a good recruit.

@riku.masterson

[inherited]

[Ah ...]

Not everyone got fake backgrounds. Just you guys, I guess.

Cassius has a messed up sense of humor.

[Also up in the air? How the heck did Cassius know to give that to Roxas of all people?]

[variate]

Our backgrounds were made by El, and we had a say in them.
If Cassius gave you something pertaining to the UNA, you might be able to use it differently.

@sora.sky

[lighthearted]

I thought about working at the arcade but ended up going with something else. Maybe you could try that?

[recompleted]

what's an arcade?

[Thus begins Sora's journey of discovering all the things his Nobody doesn't know.]

[lighthearted]

[ Oh no. This is a grave oversight, and Sora's glad that he realized it so soon. ]

It's a place you can go to play a bunch of different video games!

Do you know what video games are?

[ Please say yes. ]

[As much as Jon hates to say it:]

Mr. Mo is right, you should be looking for courses, not a job.

[recompleted]

i didn't ask for suggestions about school.

[end_recording]

Education and employment are related—Which you would know, if you went to school.

@wanyin.jiang

[sandu]

If you want to find a job, you need to know what sort of things you would be good at.

[recompleted]

i know some stuff i'm good at but i don't know if they fight jobs.

-fighting
-skateboarding

actually that might be it.

[sandu]

Skateboarding?
