Completing a Trio
Who: Terra and YOU
Where: The Plaza fountain
When: Late afternoon
Style: [Brackets], please!
Status: Open to All
The rather loud splash of water from the Plaza Fountain is the only indication that, yes, there is another new arrival in the bubble today. There's a few seconds delay before the source of that splash surfaces and makes his way to the edge of the fountain--a young man with brown hair that, courtesy of this little 'dip', is now completely and thoroughly soaked.
Really, the absolute last thing Terra expected to happen when he entered the Lanes Between was to find himself, sans his Glider, in a fountain full of water.
'Good thing I dismissed my armor; I'd have sunk like a stone.' Which was the absolute last thing he needed--not like his hakama were helping much, but soaked pants were better than head to toe plate. Pulling himself out was an easy enough task. Figuring out what went wrong with the Corridor? That was another story.
"Wonder what went wrong?" He sighs, and while sitting at the edge of the fountain, he starts to wring some of the water out of his pants. He'll take a look around after drying out a little, but who knows how long that'll take.

2/2
Aqua.
The wariness from earlier returns and mixes with the confusion as his oldest friend stops in front of Ven and himself, and he can't help but note the look on her face and the emotion that's in her voice when she lays eyes on him, and speaks his name. He can barely bring himself to speak to her past the confusion he's feeling.] Hey, Aqua.
['She's... happy to see me? No... not just happy. It was almost as if she was...
'Relieved. It's like... she never thought she'd see me again?' His eyes narrow slightly, not in anger, but in concentration, as he focuses on that deep, flickering Light that is Aqua's Heart.
It only confirmed what her voice and expression already gave away. For Ven and Aqua to be acting like this...
'It's the timeline thing. Something happens to them that... I haven't lived through yet.' But did he want to know?
He had a feeling he was going to find out anyway.]

Terra... what's the last thing you remember? 'Cause that fight you and she had in Radiant Garden was a long while ago for me. A long, long while ago. For her, too.
[ Basically, he's just confirmed Terra's suspicions in three sentences. He rubs the back of his head, and sighs-- before relaxing visibly once Aqua's on the scene. ]
Hey, Aqua. Look who I've found!
[ He suddenly feels very, very awkward. He wants to be here, but with Terra's memories the way they are... the two ought to talk it out. Right? Well, his desire to be with his family wins out over common sense and he stays put. ]
no subject
Still, the urge to give him a hug was strong, and it was pretty difficult to resist it. It wasn't just her knowledge of how Terra worked that kept her from doing it, though. She'd caught the awkwardness that had been with Ven before she made her way over here. She didn't show it, but she had a feeling that something wasn't quite right.
But. Terra. Ven. They were all here. They would be under the same stars once more. There was no way she could be unhappy about this, even despite that detail. ]
I see that!
[ Right now, the smile on her face couldn't be erased. Not at this moment. After responding to Ven, she looks to Terra again, a fondness in her eyes that she reserved just for her boys. ]
I'm so glad to see you again, Terra ...
[ Her voice was a little softer toward Terra than it had been toward Ven. She'd known where Ven was, and what was going on with him before she went into the realms of darkness. Again, Terra was a different story. After pushing him back to their own world, she had no idea what had happened afterward ... ]
no subject
'A very long time ago?' Whatever 'a very long time' really was didn't mean much, beyond confirming beyond a shadow of a doubt that his friends were from some point further down the time line.
Sparing one last glance at Aqua, he returns his gaze to Ven, the hesitation and confusion still on his face as he answers the question.] I was just leaving the world that Aqua told us about; the one that has the star-shaped fruit. Somehow, the portal to the Lanes Between dumped me out here instead.
['What happens to us? To me?' He doesn't dare ask it, not here, and not now. Not when he's just arrived, and still wearing soaked clothing, and not when both of them were just glad to see him.]
no subject
[ The place holds a lot of memories for him. Some good, some bad. Some Sora's. ]
I was sleeping for a long time. And I guess I ended up here somehow in the park where someone drew with marker all over my face.
[ He looks sheepish because he doesn't have a towel or blanket for him to dry off with. And the urge to hug is pretty strong as his wayfinder burns in his pocket. Finally! We're all together again. ]
We should get back to where we're staying, right, Aqua? Terra's gonna freeze if he stays out here like this much longer.
