Appointments Post
May. 25th, 2021 05:56 pmWanna interact with Ven at any time? You've come to the right place! This post is for convenient interaction, be it voice, action, or written. Just be sure to include the date and time in your comments!
Got comments or concerns regarding my portrayal of Ventus? Leave 'em here. Just be sure to be constructive if you do. I'm much more inclined to someone polite than a rabid flamer.
That being said, I have one very important request: If you're going to crit me? Please don't make said crit solely focused on comparisons between other players.

Spoiler Permissions Post
Oct. 30th, 2018 06:01 pmBirth by Sleep is still a relatively new game, and let's face it, not everyone can beat the game in two months. Because of this, I feel that a permissions post is appropriate. So, without further ado...
What kind of information are you okay with?
Is it okay for Ven to talk about his life in Land of Departure? Maybe the experiences he's had in the Disney Worlds? Are major plot spoilers okay with you, be it in text or icons?
Basically, what I want to know is just how much you'd like Ventus to reveal when interacting with him.

tushanshu[Late at night, those who dare venture the woods may hear a sharp snap. The rustling of leaves, and... a cough? Seems someone's in the neighborhood, though from a distance, it looks like nothing more than a disembodied flame.
Should one venture closer, they'll find Ven with his clothes smudged with dirt, twigs poking outta his hair, and big, baggy circles under his eyes. Quite a departure from his normal, tidier appearance.
He continues on his way towards the village, eventually stopping at the plaza and plopping down at the edge of the fountain. Briefly, he catches glimpses of familiar faces walking by. Fuuko. Terra. Aqua. Vanitas.
Minako...
And each time, he shouts out their names. Tries to get up, but his legs are about as sturdy as rubber, and he finds himself back where he started.
After a while, he finally opens his journal and speaks.]
So, uh... I guess I've been missing a lot, huh? [Cue some sheepish laughter.]
Guess that's what happens when you go to the beach before a big Shift! I couldn't even use the teleporters to get back, so I kinda had to... walk. A lot, and then I got kidnapped.
[Tsk. What a pain.]
I'd ask what was up with that Shift, but I'm honestly just glad it's over. Couldn't even summon my Keyblade while that was going on.
[After a long pause, he heaves a soft sigh.]
Anyway, all these weird ghosts showing up got me thinking... A lot of my friends are gone now. Some have been gone for years. So I guess what I'm trying to say is... well, does anyone wanna be friends? My name's Ventus, and I've been here for a really long time. So if any of you guys are still new, I'm more than happy to give pointers. Or talk about some of my adventures in other worlds, maybe. Just uh... I think I could use some company right now.
[Anything to keep his mind off of those images.]

Apr. 5th, 2014 08:17 pm[It's been about four months now since he had his talk with Lea. Most of that time he's spent trying to keep his spirits high. Socializing with friends, going on with his day-to-day routines.
But a recent talk with Masaomi and the whole lantern ceremony a few weeks back smacked him in the face and brought those words back into the forefront of his mind. The fact is, his future's far from pleasant. All signs point to one massive failure for him and his friends.
So here he is, journal in his lap. Maybe it's time to finally air those thoughts.]
So, um... I know at least a couple of you guys have bumped into people from the past or the future, but have you ever been hit with some really bad news? Like, say you had this goal to save a friend. Keep 'em from losing themselves, but it turns out you failed. That friend doesn't just lose themselves: they become somebody else's vessel.
If something like that did happen, what'd you do? 'Cause for me, knowing really hasn't helped. I'm stuck with the fact that I couldn't save my two best friends, and when I get back, I'll probably forget that I ever found out.
I just hate feeling so helpless.
[There, he got that off his chest. That's the first step.]
But it got me thinking about something else, too. Say we find a way to get back home without forgetting everything. Do you think it'd be wrong to try and change that future? Because I feel like I should so that my friends don't end up suffering, but doing something like that means changing the futures for everyone else, doesn't it? And I dunno if that's really fair.
[Sigh. What a mess.]
I dunno. It's all way too complicated. Makes me wish they were here now so I could ask them about it.

[Ven's been doing a lot of reading lately. In fact, those visiting the library may very well have spotted him carrying armfuls of astronomy books, adventure stories, and other odd texts to and fro. After all, there's a wealth of information about other worlds he never would've considered before.
Thus, he addresses the journals today to share what he's learned.]
You know, I've been going through some astronomy books lately, and there's some stuff I just don't get.
[The sound of page flipping picks up, followed by a soft hum.]
Like, blackholes and supernovas. See, where I'm from, every star out there's a whole different world. Their light comes from inside their hearts, not from burning hydrogen and helium, so the idea of stars having huge explosions and just... dying doesn't really add up. Sure, worlds can still disappear, but that only really happens when the darkness swallows their hearts.
I guess I just don't get the connection. It's weird thinking of stars as just... suns, basically. Doesn't that make the universe feel a lot emptier? And black holes...
[He grimaces as he skims the black hole section of one of his books.]
So, they're what happens when stars collapse, right? Just... a point in space that's all warped, and if you pass the event horizon, you get ripped molecule by molecule? That just sounds wrong. Like a path to the Lanes Between that just keeps pulling things in, though now that I think about it, I wonder if a Zero Graviga spell could get you outta one, since you're basically reversing the pull of gravity...
[There's a shaky laugh on his end before he closes the book shut.]
Maybe I'm over thinking it, but have any of you ever found stuff in books that just doesn't add up compared to your worlds?
Action;
[After spending some time doing a bit more reading, Ven opts to brave the outdoors, bringing along his Pegaslick from last Christmas. Despite caring for him for such a long period of time, Ven hasn't really tried flying that much, so the two can be found perched along the rooftop of the ice building. After all, it's the closest perch to his house, and if they're gonna pull this off, they need altitude!
Their goal? To fly from roof to roof, circling over all of the CH buildings. However, as they traverse Luceti from above, their flight pattern's a bit wobbly. Those wandering the streets of Luceti may want to duck!]

Aug. 28th, 2013 07:44 pm[It's been a while now since Fuuko's departure. During that time, Ven's been quieter than usual. Not tearful, but a bit more subdued than his usual, goofy self.
Even when he addresses the journal, his tone's a bit soft.]
You know, I gotta wonder. I know lots of you guys have found love here, but how do you guys deal when that person disappears? D'you keep waiting 'til they come back, or do you just... move forward? It's kinda tough spot for me. I'm not gonna let it bring me down or anything, but it's still sad. And it's just like when anyone else leaves-- unexpected.
But it was nice while it lasted. Fuuko's a great person, and I think she brought something special to the village. Who else would go outta their way to throw a huge starfish festival? To tell you the truth, I don't think I'll ever look at starfish the same way.
[He pauses.]
Wonder what Terra and Aqua'd think, though. It's been almost three years now...
[He doesn't expect anyone to react to that last bit. After all, his friends haven't shown up in a long time.]

Jul. 14th, 2013 08:59 am[Today we have one grinning young man waving at the feed. It hasn't really dawned on him that he's gonna be turning eighteen soon. That's way too weird to think about. Besides, it's summer, and he's got other things to talk about! Starting with...]
Hey, guys. I see we're getting lots of New Feathers, so I thought I'd go ahead and say welcome! Hope Luceti's not too crazy for you. Believe me when I say it gets better the longer you stick around.
Anyway, since it's summer and all, I was wondering... See, before I came here, I went to this world called Disney Town, and they had all kinds of cool games. There was this one called Ice Cream Beat where I got to shoot scoops of ice cream to the beats of this really catchy song. A while back, Roxas and I thought about doing something similar here, but since he left, that idea's kinda been sitting around, collecting dust.
[He pauses for a moment, rubbing the back of his neck. That's kinda his fault.]
Anyway, I was wondering if there's anyone who could make that kinda machine for real. I've already got something running in the battle dome, along with a Fruit Ball court, but I dunno. It might be fun to set something up in the square someday. Maybe when it's not so foggy. If anyone's got giant pieces of fruit lying anywhere, we could probably put up Fruit Ball too, but I've got a feeling that'll be even tougher.
[Heh. And one last point...]
By the way, I know I mentioned him before, but if you guys see someone named Kohan, could you maybe say hi to him? He still doesn't have a lot of friends, and I'm really trying to fix that. And uh... like I said before, he's got silver hair, black streaks, kinda grumpy sometimes, but I swear he's a nice guy.

Poorly Filtered from Kohan;
Hey, guys, I've got a question.
[He sighs. It's something that's been bothering him for a while.]
See, I've got this friend, who's... well, he's a little shy. Doesn't have a lot of friends, kinda serious and lately it seems like he's had a lot on his mind.
For those of you who don't know him, his name's Kohan. He's tall, has silver hair with black streaks, looks kinda like Riku...
Anyway, I'm just wondering what I should do. I really wanna make him feel better, but I don't wanna force things on him and make him uncomfortable.
[And with that outta the way...]
Video, Public;
Oh, and does anyone know how to take care of--
[Before he can finish, a strangely colored pegasus butts in, nudging Ven with his head. C'mon, c'mon! Let's go fly, you doofus. C'moon...
Ven rubs at the back of his neck.]
See, I got this guy for Christmas, but I'm not really sure how to take care of him or what he really is. I get that he's some kinda horse, but that emblem on him's really unfamiliar. I know he's definitely not an Unversed...
Plus, I dunno what I oughta be feeding him. All I do know is that he keeps staring at the bakery whenever we walk by.
[But later on, Ven can be found riding on his colorful steed. ...awkwardly.
It seems that his Dream Eater's taking him on a wild goose chase, straight for the bakery, and... Right into the roof, leading to an awkward landing when the two slide down from the edge.
Hope you guys weren't trying to go in there.]

[Ven isn't exactly sure what's going on, but he'll be zipping around the village as best he can, trying to see if any familiar faces pop up. Other times, he might end up crashing to strangers completely on accident; it's packed, after all, making it difficult to get around!
But really, find him anywhere, any time.]
[As for Rainbow Dash, she's using the crowds to her advantage, performing daring stunts right over the village. See rainbows dashing through the sky, clouds swirling up like soft serve ice cream, and so much more! She'll be at it for a while.
Later, she'll stop just long enough to hang on top of a cloud... right next to the bakery. Like, literally above the roof. Weird, eh?]

Nov. 23rd, 2012 01:45 pm[Ven's had a lot on his mind these past few weeks. Between the draft, Terra's departure, and... recent events with Fuuko, he's been hit hard and fast.
And what better way to deal with issues than to talk about it? It's for this reason that Ven's pulled open his journal today.
Deep breaths, now. He can do this!]
Say, um. Let's say you just recently started... Well, I mean, if you were--
[He pauses. Gosh, why is this so awkward to ask? COMPOSURE, Ventus.]
Okay, how 'bout this? If you just got together with somebody, and... [...aaand freezing up again.
...aw, heck. He'll just get to the point.]
What kinda things are boyfriends supposed to do? [That came out kinda fast. But... there. At least he said it. And now that that's outta the way, it's time for a more somber subject... He'll get on that after a short pause.]
Also, that last draft really got me thinking. We weren't able to just tag people like before. In order to survive, everybody had to, well... kill. And for me, that's really scary. I can't just... take someone's life, even if they're the enemy.
So I guess what I wanna know is... how do you guys feel about that? And the drafts in general.
I know that's a really weird thing to tackle after that last question, but... well. Any answers are definitely appreciated!

Aug. 16th, 2012 06:59 amWhat's love mean to you?
[He takes a deep breath. Might as well get that bit outta the way.]
I mean, I know there's a lot of people who've got somebody special or have in the past. And there's all the guys who keep trying to find somebody. For the longest time, I've just wondered why. Like, what makes stuff like flirting and dates so important to people?
But I know there's more to it than that. At least, I always figured love was something special that only happens if you're really lucky and find the right person. Like, Princess Aurora. She had strong dreams that led her right to her true love. But how do you even know if you've got something like that?
[There's a pause, as he takes a deep breath.]
And if you do love somebody, that doesn't change how important your friends are, right?
[There, that oughta do it. Between posts like Ling's and the stuff he's seen during his time in Luceti, it's high time he got some answers.]

[It wasn't hard to tell when he woke up that morning that something was amiss. He'd been so used to seeing her around the house that when he stumbled upon Aqua's empty room, he knew exactly what had happened. After all, it'd happened before. Twice.
But rather than open his journal to lament over another lost friend, Ven opts to scoop it up and climb out onto the roof, where he gazes up at the sky at nothing in particular. Once the words come to mind, he finally addresses the journal.]
You know, I've been here for a really long time now, and I've seen loads of people come and go. My best friends have been here at least twice now, but now I'm the only one left. It's kinda crazy to think about... I mean, I remember when the three of us were inseparable.
[Granted, he still believes that their connections will bring them back together. Nothing's ever gonna change that, but it's still... sad.]
How do you guys handle that? I'm sure I'm not the only one who's seen friends go or come and go a bunch of times, only to forget this place when they come back. And would you rather have 'em here with you, or do you think it's better if they leave?
I've always thought that, as long as you keep your friends in your heart, they'll always be right there with you, but that sure doesn't stop me from missing 'em.

But when he went into Vanitas' room, he found nothing. Nothing but his music player and a few CDs left behind. It's... jarring, to say the least. He'd been spending months trying to make Vanitas a better person, but now that he's gone--
He could come back without memories. He'd be back to the way he was, hurting people for his own enjoyment. Trying to forge the χ-blade...
When Ven addresses the journal, there's no mistaking it-- he's upset. While some might be happy to hear the news, Ven is not one of those people.]
For those of you that knew him, Vanitas is... gone.
I guess you guys don't have to worry about him now.
[Except Ven's scared. Housemates might find him up on the roof, warily watching the sky. Later on, he'll be hanging by the bakery and the library, just trying to find a suitable distraction. First one of his closest friends disappeared, and now this... Just his luck.]

[Except Ven's scared. Housemates might find him up on the roof, warily watching the sky. Later on, he'll be hanging by the bakery and the library, just trying to find a suitable distraction. First one of his closest friends disappeared, and now this... Just his luck.]

Jan. 27th, 2012 10:29 pmHey, looks like we just got a huge batch of New Feathers! Well, welcome to Luceti, everybody! My name's Ventus, and if you need help getting around, I'd be glad to lend a hand. Just lemme know if you need anything, and I'll do my best!
But does this mean we're gonna need another New Feather party? Wonder if we've got enough room.
[Well, whatever the case, he's gonna be running all over the place, trying to meet some new people! Why? Becuase FRIENDSHIP. He can be found anywhere.]

When Ven speaks into the journal, he tries to hide his disappointment; as a result, he sounds pretty strained.]
Hey, guys. Looks like it's December now, which means Christmas is right around the corner. I heard about a party over the journals, but does anyone else have something fun planned? If it's anything like last year, we'll probably get a ton of snow. A big snowball fight could be fun. Just an idea.
[He sighs. This isn't working...]
Terra's gone. After all this time, I didn't think he'd... [A beat.]
Does anyone wanna hang out? Or do something? I think I need a distraction right now.
[There, at least he's being honest. And with that, he'll probably check up on his housemates (especially Vanitas) and then head out into the village for a bit. He might be wandering a little aimlessly. He'll be just about everywhere before he returns back to the house.
Care to cheer him up? Or antagonize him? Anything goes!]

Sep. 5th, 2011 02:43 pm[Ever since Vanitas moved in, Ven's had a lot on his mind. Taking in the same guy who nearly killed a lot of his friends, took over his body, and caused general chaos isn't something most people would even consider.
But Ven's not like other people. He's far too nice for his own good, and what some may consider reckless he views as the 'right' thing-- especially when someone's starving and dehydrated.
So, when he opens the journal, he doesn't look or sound particularly sad-- just a little confused. Something's on his mind, if nothing else.]
Hey, guys. I've got a question... [A beat.]
Let's say you know this guy who's kind of a jerk. What's the best way to help him lighten up a bit and improve his attitude?
[Suddenly, there's another voice chiming in. One some people will probably recognize as Vanitas.]
I hear a lobotomy works wonders.
Hey!
[What follows is some shuffling, followed by a resounding SQUEAK! Probably from an inflatable hammer.]
[ooc: Italics = Vanitas. Ven's gonna be doing most of the talking, but Vanitas might make some background comments!]

I don't know how many of you guys heard Kairi's message, but something's happened to Xion. She's in really bad shape, all thanks to Vanitas.
And she's not the only one. A while back, Axel almost died because of him. Then Sora lost one of his wings, and Naoto got really hurt and lost her gun. He might not remember the χ-blade, but Vanitas is just as dangerous as he's always been.
And it's about time we did something about it.
Vanitas is really powerful, so whatever you do, don't go alone. That's what he'd want you to do. What we oughta do is get a group together. If you're friends with Xion, Naoto, Sora, or you just wanna help, just let me know. Maybe if we team up, we can settle this. [For now.]
And if the rest of you guys see somebody wearing a black and red suit, stay away from him. I don't want anyone else to get hurt, especially my friends.

But Ven isn't one to dwell on that for too long, and he figures the people of Luceti could use some positive discussion material. So, here he is.]
I know that everyone here comes from different worlds, but I've been thinking about it for a while, and I was wondering. How many of you guys have been to other worlds before?
Not Luceti. I mean before you came here.
And if you did see other worlds, what were they like? I'd love to hear about 'em! I've been to a lot of worlds, but I'm sure there's still thousands of 'em I've never even heard of.
[He pauses for a minute. Just asking about people who've seen other worlds does leave a lot of people out. Hmmm...]
Oh, and if you haven't, you could always talk about your adventures back home!

Apr. 21st, 2011 06:09 pmHey, guys, I've got a few questions for you. It's almost time for the festival, so I just wanna make sure I've got my bases covered.
First of all, what's your favorite ice cream? Any kinda toppings you'd want? I wanna make sure there's something for everyone.
[A beat.]
Also, is there anyone who'd wanna help run the stand? I don't mind handling it by myself, but if there's two or three more people, it'll go way quicker.
[And with that, Ven's going to be out and about, gathering supplies. He'll be hitting up the stores for all kinds of goodies, going back and forth. He doesn't mind stopping to chat, however!]
[ooc: AU info is pretty simple. Ven grew up with his three brothers, has magic and Keyblade powers, attends school, and is a very social and friendly kiddo. I'm up to maintaining his Luceti CR in the AU and any new friendships as well! He's a social kid. Also part of the Rogues.
ETA: Backdated to yesterday.]

Fortunately, it's quieting down, and his spirits are high once again. It's the first time in months that he's totally at ease, and it feels great.
So, naturally, he's in a talkative mood.]
Man, has it really been five five months since I got here? It sure doesn't feel like it, but I guess time flies!
[He laughs.]
Anyway, how's everyone doing? I know there was an experiment a few weeks ago, but I missed out on it this time. I dunno if that's good or bad, though. Turning into different creatures'd probably be a little weird, but it looked pretty fun! At least it's pretty harmless compared to the last one, right?
[There was something else, wasn't there? Hmm...]
Oh yeah! I remember reading about the school a while back, but what's it like? The closest thing I had back home was my training, and that's completely different. Me and my friends learned a lot back home, but it's definitely not a classroom.

There sure are a lot of new people this cycle! I know a lot of people have already said it, but welcome to Luceti! I know it's rough showing up in a new world, but there's a bunch of people here who'd be willing to help you get comfortable, so don't be afraid to ask. I know I'm always up to lending a hand.
And that reminds me... Terra's here! He's still getting used to this place, so if any of you see him around, don't be afraid to talk to him. He's pretty tall, has brown hair, and is kinda serious sometimes, but once you get to know him, he's a great guy. I bet he wouldn't mind making some new friends.
[However, that enthusiasm doesn't last very long. He remembers his last conversation with Xion over the journals, the impending threat he faces, and all that bottled up fear. Although he's trying his best to stay strong, to be brave, Ven knows better to ignore the truth. So, after a moment's pause, he drops the facade and tosses up a quick filter.]

Mar. 3rd, 2011 07:44 pm[Ever since Ven returned to the village he's been on-edge... to put it lightly. Between the draft and his encounter with Vanitas, he's not only exhausted, but pretty scared at this point.
That's why, as he's making his way through the village and back towards his house, he's carrying his Keyblade with him and stopping occasionally just to make sure he's not being followed.
Just don't be surprised if he's a bit jumpy; kid's got a lot on his mind.
And when he finally makes it back home...]
[Voice//Filtered 100% from Vanitas]
You know, fighting a real war's nothing like fighting the Unversed. It's way more serious, and people die out there, on both sides... It's dangerous and kinda scary.
[He pauses for a few seconds.]
But I'm glad I could help. Even if what the Malnosso do is wrong, that battle was about more than just them. Plus, it feels good protecting people; it's a better reason to fight than just killing.
[And with that off his chest...]

Hey. I'm sure a lot of you guys know about Vanitas by now, and most of you probably don't like him. He can be pretty harsh sometimes, and I know he's caused trouble before. The thing is...
[Hoo boy.]
Well, we're really close. We have been for a while now, I just didn't know how to say it before. I know this sounds weird, but he's really not a bad guy once you get to know him. Honest!
So maybe you guys could give him a chance?
[ooc: Forgot to add; since the event made him think it's always been that way, he doesn't remember Vantias almost killing Axel. :( Just getting into a fight... for reason.]

I guess it'd be harder for the people who turned into food or objects, but maybe you could ask someone to make one for you. I'm sure they wouldn't mind!

[Hmm. There's something else he's curious about, too. Prior to the draft, people were talking about Christmas, so...]
By the way, isn't Christmas coming up pretty soon? I wonder if Santa's gonna make it here. If he can travel to all the worlds in one night, then I'm sure it's possible, but what if the barrier gets in the way? Has he ever been here before?

And what kind of experiment is this, anyway? Some people are acting weird, others are turning into kids, but the guide made it sound like only one thing happens at a time.
[And with his message out of the way, Ventus will be out and about. Why? In part it's because of the snow; it's something he's not entirely used to, after all, but he's also in a rather good mood. Yes, even when there's a crazy experiment going on.
So as he heads out to find a good spot to derp around in the snow, he spontaneously starts singing with a spring in his step. Yes, this includes instrumentation.]
Tell everybody I'm on my way
New friends and new places to see
With blue skies ahead
Yes I'm on my way
And there's nowhere else that I'd rather be
Tell everybody I'm on my way
And I'm lovin' every step I take
With the sun beating down
Yes I'm on my way
And I can't keep this smile off my face

[And at this point he stops and scratches his head. Ven's never really made a habit out of singing; the fact that he just burst into song on his way through the village is just a little embarrassing as a result. On the positive side, he's made it over to the forest's edge, where there's plenty of room to build something in the snow. So, after a bit of sheepish laughter, he puts his journal down and starts building the foundation for some kind of snow fort.]
[ooc: Extremely belated because it took me forever to find a song for this kiddo. Open to voice or action comments! And as a side note, expect him to randomly sing Disney songs when it fits. Ekeke.]

Nov. 11th, 2010 10:07 amYou know, this place isn't so bad. Even if it's a prison, at least it's peaceful, and there's a lot of room to explore. Maybe one of these days I'll go check out the forest or the mountains, but right now I'm fine with sticking around the village. Aqua just got here, anyway, and maybe Terra'll show up soon. If he does, we've already got a house set up. Well, sorta. We just moved in, so there's still a lot we could do.
[Briefly, Ventus pauses. The journals are supposed to be for communication, so there's a lot he could talk about, but where to start?
...Well, there is one thing.]
Anyway, I know that you guys come from all kinds of worlds. So what's your world like?

[Later tonight, people passing by might spot Ventus chilling on the roof of House 39. But why is he out so late in the first place?
Given how focused he is on the sky, it should be fairly clear. One of his favorite things to do back home was look at the stars, and given that the threat of Unversed seems next to nonexistent, there's finally a good opportunity to do just that.
Feel free to join him or maybe scold him for not carrying a blanket... or whatever floats your boat! In spite of the chilly weather, he doesn't seem too bothered, at least.]

Nov. 3rd, 2010 05:46 pmMaybe it's magic... That'd explain all the voices. So maybe if I--
[Flip, flip...]
Hey, can anyone hear me? I heard some voices coming from this journal, so I hope I'm doing this right.
[A beat.]
Anyway, my name's Ventus, and I've got a quick question. Could anyone tell me about this place? It looks like I'm in a forest, but I don't see any people around. Truth is, I'm kinda lost.

[Those in the forest are sure to find this derp wandering around in new feather garb. He stops every once in a while to look around, occasionally scratching his head.
It's odd. While he's used to world travel and even changes brought on by it to a degree, the fact that he showed up in this world without any of his belongings or the Star Shard. His clothes, his armor, and even the Star Shard just up and disappeared, which makes no sense.
So what's he doing? Well, given the way he's aimlessly making his way through the forest, he's either a) really lost, b) looking for something, or c) a combination of both!]
Man, I wonder what happened. Did somebody steal it?
[And what is this "it"? Should anyone encounter Ventus, he might just explain! For now, he'll continue on his way.]
[ooc: Don't forget to hit up my permissions post if you haven't already! The more specific you are, the better.]
