First Flare

[A lanky redheaded man in a long black coat waves at the screen, apparently already comfortable with how it works. A komory bat is fluttering around above his head.]

Didn’t think I’d see this place again. Hey, everyone, my name is Lea. [He grins.] Don’t forget it, now.

I don’t know how I ended up here again, but does anyone know what’s going on? The moogle said you guys had been trying to work out what was up but that it didn’t seem like anyone had figured out how to get home. Since this isn’t the exam, I don’t think anyone’s going to try to wake me up any time soon.

...wanna talk about it? I didn't mean to bring up Xehanort and upset everyone, I at least owe it to you to listen if you need to vent.

...Terra. Did he ever say anything about Terra, even briefly?

[eternalfrolicbond]

[Lea shakes his head.]

I don't remember the name ever coming up.

[There's a soft noise that sounds like it might be a whisper of an 'oh,' but she's moving on before it really has time to register.]

I see.

[Lea looks away from the communicator.]

Sorry. I know what it's like to...lose a friend to that guy.

[wavesinherheart]

I don't think makes it hurt any less.

But thank you.

[There's another moment of silence, and then the soft click of the communicator being turned off. Sorry Lea, but she needs a moment to herself.]
