Night 1 | ~ Remember ~

[irreversibly.livejournal.com]

[There is a sleepy town cast in the soft orange light of the setting sun. It is built on hills, so the brick streets of the town rise and fall in great slopes in some areas and gently rolls in others. At the very top of the highest hill, there is a clock tower perched atop a train station. When a world is trapped within perpetual sunset like this one, keeping track of the time is difficult, and so that tower is of the utmost importance, the ticking of its clock the heartbeat of the town.

Wherever you are in the town, there's a young teenager dressed in a black coat. The hood is drawn up to where his or her face is mostly obscured. On top of the clock tower, he or she -- it's surprisingly difficult to tell -- the teenager is sitting on the ledge, holding a light blue ice cream bar in one hand, staring out at the town below. Elsewhere, s/he can be found wandering around, as if exploring the streets, or standing awkwardly along the building walls.]



[ooc: A list of canonical locations in town is here, if you want it! All of Twilight Town is there to visit (except for Yen Sid's tower, since Xion doesn't exactly know that place exists).]

[Reno's not surprised to find herself in another strange location, but she's not that interested in the architecture of Market Street, so she seeks out another person and soon finds one standing beside one of the buildings.

The black coat and hood do not sit well with her, considering past and recent events, so she approaches with a certain wariness, but it doesn't seem like a freaky Sephiremnant or anything of the kind.]

Hey, kid. You live here?

[Xion looks up, brow furrowing under the hood, but then jumps at the sight of that woman. She looks like... and something about her voice is...

Axel?]

I... uh... no...

[tasercopter.livejournal.com]

[This woman does look and talk a lot like Axel, after all, and she even has tattoos on her face. But she has no idea who Axel is. She leans in curiously.]

No, huh? [Why did it take the kid so long to answer that simple question?]

But you know where here is?

[irreversibly.livejournal.com]

[She even moves like Axel. Xion shrinks deeper within her hood.]

Y-Yes....

[People can't change gender when they become Nobodies... can they...?]

[tasercopter.livejournal.com]

That's good. [A pause.]

Uh, so where is it? [What is with this hooded kid? Well, since it is a kid, Reno is more inclined to go easy.]

[irreversibly.livejournal.com]

Twilight Town.

[tasercopter.livejournal.com]

Never heard of it. You're not the most informative kid who ever lived, are you?

What's your name? What's with the hood?

[Xion starts getting flustered. She answered her questions. What more does she want?]

I -- I'm... not anyone important. [If the Organization hears that she's been in Twilight Town...]

[tasercopter.livejournal.com]

[If the kid's saying they're not anyone important, then they can't have anything to do with Sephiroth. Those people are always saying how great they are. Her tension lessens. She leans back, sliding her hands in her pockets, her Electro-Mag Rod tucked between one of her arms and her body.]

You'll never be important with an attitude like that.

So what's your name, Not Important? [She asks again. There's not much else to do around here, and Reno is nosy.]

[irreversibly.livejournal.com]

[What, no. She just --

Xion hunches her shoulders.] It doesn't matter.

[tasercopter.livejournal.com]

[So the weird kid doesn't want to give his/her name. Fine. No big deal.] I'll just call you "Not", then, because that's easier to say.

My name's Reno, Not. Why you hanging around here?

[irreversibly.livejournal.com]

[... this woman -- this Reno -- reminds Xion so much of Axel it's almost painful.

She looks away.] I don't... really know. [She's being honest. It'd be safer to be in Traverse Town or Hollow Bastion... Didn't she leave Twilight Town already?] I guess... for the memories.
