[ Well, it's taken a little while. But a warm towel and a trip to the Welcoming Committee later, Kairi has a lot better of an idea as to what's going on here than she'd had just prior to that. It's a relief and a worry all at once, to know that she's not alone in this. To see so many others stuck here is kind of sad--but still, they're making the most of it. A lot of people seem happy.
And that's a good thing. She's a firm believer in positivity helping you make it through anything.
Which is why she's got a smile on her face when the video clicks on; she's honestly delighted at the prospect of meeting so many new faces. And at the possibility that maybe, just maybe (however unlikely) her long-lost best friends might be here, too. In the very least she's gotten off the island and is now living an adventure of her own. It's daunting as heck, but pretty exciting, too.
And oh, yeah! This thing is recording. Uhhhhh. ]
You know, one of my friends used to be convinced that there was a whole other world under the sea. But she said you'd have to sprout gills and fins to get there. Wait until I tell her you don't need to! She won't believe me.
[ Her grin warms, and she waves. ]
Hi, if you're watching this. I'm Kairi. And I guess it's pretty obvious that I'm new, huh?
[ Being the new girl again. At least she's experienced this feeling before. ]
I've gotta thank the Welcoming Committee for that map, you guys are lifesavers. But all the maps in the world aren't going to materialize a couple of boys out of thin air. So I'm wondering if anyone seen a guy named Riku, or... or...
[ She frowns, furrowing her brow in mild annoyance. She still can't remember. ]
I don't know what his name is, but he'd probably be hanging around with Riku.
So, has anyone seen them? I need to give them a talking to.
[ The grin turns into a playful smirk, and then the transmission ends. ]

The named friend is silent for a while, just... staring at the feed before he even dares to flick on his own so he can respond. With his thoughts going far beyond the legal speed limit, it's probably the better idea he's had of staying silent for a moment and collecting himself instead of letting his words get the better of him again. When the audio feed begins, there's only three words said:]
... You mean Sora.
[At least he doesn't have to ask what the last thing she remembers is. All the same, ouch. Way to go, powers that be...]
voice; 1/2
She's about to tease him for not calling or writing, but, well... his words stop her short. Now it's her turn to think at a rapid pace, mind working to try and connect the dots with the name he's provided. And it.. feels right.
Kairi nods slowly, her hand fisting and rising to lay across her heart. ]
So that's his name. I was wondering. Is he here?
voice; 2/2
And what about you? Are you really there or am I hearing things?
[ Cue to appear on video por favor, Riku. She wants to get a good look at where you are. ]
voice → video;
It's with a faint sigh that he replies:]
He was the last I checked.
[...then the feed flickers briefly as he adjusts it to video. There he is, not too far from the plaza on his usual route on his patrols. ...Was that a faint smile?]
Well, I hope you aren't seeing things, either.

Riku or--?]
[voice]
Kairi's important to Sora, after all...and therefore important to Roxas.
His voice is casual now.]
I've never known someone to forget their friend's name.
voice;
But she isn't, and to her, this is the voice of someone she's never met.
The result of that is her rather sheepish response:]
I know it's pretty lame, huh? It's weird... I feel like I should.

Why yes, Riku is here.

Thanks. It's nice to meet you, too!
[ While they've spoken already, the relief on her face is evident. ]
You don't know how glad I am about that.

Oh, wow. Can't say I'e ever met a detective before. And well--one of them's here. But the other one...
[ She tries to remember, and shakes her head. ]
I can't remember. Only that his voice used to be there, and now it's gone.
[ Video ]
Do you remember anything else about your friend?

I've tracked down one of them, at least!
[ More like he'd found her. Shh. And she's curious. ]
I'm Kairi. What's your name?

[Hey, hey...either which, she gets it.]
Ringo. It's nice to meet you.

Ahaha, we've all been new before. Welcome to the city! It's actually not that bad of a place, really.
[ as for the question of the two guys she's looking for ... ]
I'm afraid I don't know who Riku is ... otherwise I'd be glad to tell you if he's around here or not. If you give me a description, I could keep an eye out for you?
video;
Thanks! It doesn't seem like it--a lot nicer than the last place I visited.
[ Hollow Bastion sucks. |B Even if it's her hometown. ]
If you see him, you won't be able to mistake him for anyone else.
[ Who is Sephiroth? XD ] He's taller than me, with silver hair and turquoise eyes. The girls all have crushes on him at home.
[ She grins. ] I'd appreciate it, thanks.
video;
Right, got it. I'll keep an eye out. And, uh ... as for the mystery boy, do you have a description of him, too?

Hi Kairi! It's nice to meet you! I'm Feferi, and I'm still pretty new too.
voice; Not in the least!
And she's rather amazed at the image on her end. ]
Wow! I wish I could, but the best I can do is hold my breath for a minute or two.
Hi! It's nice to meet you, Feferi. [ New girls unite? XD ]
How are you finding things here so far?
