11. [Video/Action]

[On the screen is a relatively new face. North has decided to check out Ponyville and this is the result. A purple unicorn with a green mane. He looks a little bewildered at the change, less because he's a unicorn and more because his AI is suddenly a baby dragon and that's really weird. Maybe a cause for concern. But he has bigger worries at the moment.]

Anyone want to explain what the trick to walking on all fours is? I don't think I've got the hang of it yet.

[OOC: This post has a variety of options. There's the video option, and several action options: You can mean North and Theta together and teach him to walk (A), Meet North on his own after he's mostly figured it out and had a chance to practice (B), or meet Theta on his own as North decided to rest a bit and ended up falling asleep and Theta wanted to play. (C). Just let me know in the subject line.]

[Xions eyes widen.]

They're that strong?

[Good thing they're not enemies, then.]

That's even stronger than, than Aeleus.

[He's kind of her gauge for physical strength, okay?]

Yeah, they are. Like I said, they're practically legends.

But the armour probably helps.

[Xion nods.]

Probably, but I don't know much about armor.

Well, the thing about my armour, when I'm human, is that it's like a simpler version of theirs. I don't know much about the details, but I've heard rumours.

Does yours help your strength, then?

[It looked so heavy that Xion had thought it must do the opposite.]

Yeah, a bit. I mean, if I have to hit someone, it's going to hurt a lot more than if I wasn't wearing armour, but I mostly have to rely on the shield enhancement and Theta.

Spartans don't need the enhancements and AI.

Oh, I see. So Theta helps with your armor, too?

They don't?

[Yeah, she's just going to be kind of wide-eyed impressed. That armor looks HEAVY, and to move around like that in it and do the things North says the Spartans can without any help...]

Yeah. He's the guy who keeps everything running. Right Theta?

Yup

But yeah. Now you see why I think they're amazing.

[Xion nods, and smiles at Theta.]

But sometimes having a friend to work with is better than being on your own.

That is a good point. Between Theta and my sister, we're practically unstoppable.

Axel, Roxas, and I always worked well together.

[Not that they'd always been mission partners, but she'd enjoyed the times they were.]

That's good. They're here, right?

[That's an interesting question, North. Xion has to think a moment for a good way to answer.]

Yeah, though Axel is Lea now.

[It's a statement that makes perfect sense to her.]

So, he changed his name?

Kind of. The the name he had a long time ago, before we were friends.

[She'll leave it at that, since explaining about Nobodies and Others is complicated and that's Lea's story, anyway.]

So you hadn't seen each other for a long time?

I think for him it had been a while.

Lea was his name at first, I think, but when I met him he'd been Axel for a while. Sometime between when I got here and he did, he started calling himself Lea again.

[There. That's probably the best way to explain it without too much information.]

So, he's from your future. I know what that's like.

Most of the people here from my world are from my future, I think. Is it the same for you and your friends?

[It make things interesting sometimes, especially since they all have their own secrets.]

Yeah, it is. I think I'm earliest on the timeline.

[Interesting is one word for it. For North, it's been a source of stress. He doesn't like what the future holds.]

[In Xion's case, any tension mostly results from issues in the past. Not that they've had a lot of opportunity to discuss it.]

Are the others from a very long time after you?

I think so. Long enough for a lot of things to change.

[Far too many things it feels like.]

It's not so very long in our case, but even a little time can make a lot of difference, I guess.

[Look at what just one year had done for her and her friends]

It really can.

[He smiles, if a bit sadly and bumps her in a friendly way.]

I'm gonna guess things go sour for a bit.

[Xion's smile in response is also a bit sad.]

Yeah. We've had a chance to talk about some things here, so it's a little better.

[Not the best it could be, and they haven't talked about everything, but it's better than where they were when she left.]
