Ventus

[He's been staring at his journal for a while, just trying to find the right words. It's... difficult, in part because he's so surprised and also due to sadness.

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!]

[It's been a while since Ven's made any entries in his journal, but the kid's life has been pretty busy over the past month.

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.

Maybe 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.]
