[First District, Traverse Town. Kanji's spent a little while getting settled in, but he's out and exploring right now, getting his bearings.
Or, at least, he is until trouble hits.
A mob of Nightmares. Nothing spectacular, a gang of Meow Wows, but it's enough to catch him off guard. How can anything so adorable be so vicious...! Then again: he's hardly unfamiliar with getting into a fight. Now, what can he use around here to take those damn things out with...

Shortly after, parked on the steps leading down to the town gates, he'll be making a call to get some more answers while he recovers a bit.]

...anyone getting this? Uh, hi, anyway. Name's Kanji - I got here earlier. And - I've got a coupla questions. About these guys.

[He pans the camera around to show his Pricklemane bouncing happily nearby.]

This little dude saved my ass earlier, but I don't know anything about it. Or about the ones who were trying to eat me. ... That's how it works, right? They're 'Dream Eaters', we're dreaming...

[Kanji logic, everyone.]

So is there anything I need to know? Like, how do I look after this guy? Does anywhere sell food for 'em?

...uh, and does anyone know who owns the café by the 'item' shop? The one with the chairs outside? I ... can't see 'em anywhere but I think I kinda owe 'em some cash.
I just... didn't exactly have anythin' else I could use, here...

You think so? [He gives a sigh.] Man. That's a load off my mind... first day here and I already managed to wreck a thing, huh.

[wavesinherheart]

Well... I suppose if it was necessary?

[realmenknitplushies]

Yeah. Those black cat things had me in a corner, I needed somethin' to beat 'em down with... it was one of the chairs or nothin'.
...How often do the things attack, anyway? These ... Nightmares?

[wavesinherheart]

I'm not sure I can say regularly, but they do turn up a lot?

[realmenknitplushies]

Huh. [He nods, pauses, and asks-] Think it's worth me lookin' for something better in case I get caught again?

[wavesinherheart]

Your Dream Eater should be able to help, but yes.

[realmenknitplushies]

Yeah, the little guy got me outta a mess a couple of times already. But I don't wanna let it do all the hard work. Those things show up again, I wanna be ready for 'em.

[wavesinherheart]

The moogles might be able to help with weapons.

[realmenknitplushies]

They could? What sorta stuff've they got, d'you know?

[wavesinherheart]

Ah, well. I've never really needed to ask them.

[realmenknitplushies]

Got your own stuff, yeah?

[wavesinherheart]

Ah, yes. I do.

[realmenknitplushies]

Huh. Handy. ...Just curious. What kinda thing d'you go for?

[wavesinherheart]

It's called a Keyblade.

[realmenknitplushies]

Key ... blade. Ain't heard of that before, sorry.

[wavesinherheart]

I didn't expect you would have.

[realmenknitplushies]

Alright. Unusual stuff, huh...

[wavesinherheart]

I... guess you could say that.

[realmenknitplushies]

Okay... that's cool. [He smiles a bit.]

[wavesinherheart]

Mmm, I'm glad you think so.

[realmenknitplushies]

Heh, thanks. I mean, I ain't an expert in this stuff, but... just kinda interesting to hear 'bout something new.

[wavesinherheart]

In... what stuff?
