[voice ---> video]

[The post starts out as voice - a very familiar voice. There are a few clicks before and after he speaks, as if the person in question is still doing something with their laptop.]

Alright, the instructions said to push this to get started, so if I set everything up right...

[A few seconds later, after some more clicking and shuffling, the video turns on. Hey, it is Roxas-

...no, wait. No. No, it isn't. It's another boy - another very, very happy boy, one that some will recognize (and not just for his lookalike).]

There! It worked!

Well, um, hello everyone! My name is Ventus - Ven, for short.

A friend of mine told me about this...network, right? They said that a lot of people trying to help the worlds were using it, so I thought I should introduce myself. I would've done it sooner, too, but...well, I've been keeping an eye on my friend Terra. It's kind of a full-time job, right now.

[His smile fades, and he appears thoughtful...no, worried as he says that last sentence. Ven is quiet for a moment, before he shoves whatever thoughts he was having aside, his smile returning.]

But, anyway! If there's any trouble, I want to help as much as I can. Just let me know what I can do.

It's nice to meet everyone, and I hope I get to meet some of you in person soon, too!

Now, um...

[With only some minor fumbling, the video shuts off, ending the post.]

So, um...hi? I would've posted earlier today but I had to try and beat Jalen with a pillow plead to get the laptop.

I've been told Eli and I were missing for over a week, but I don't remember it. At all. And every time I try, my head starts throbbing. So I'm just not going to even bother. Not a real fan of headaches. Had enough of one the other night, thought my head would explode. Speaking of the other night...Medrau? Thanks. You saved our lives, literally. I mean, I've fought heartless before and I can take care of myself, but you know, I was just thrashed-

Yeah. Thanks. It might've only been a couple but I'm sure that was enough for you.

...The idea that some- witch was holding my son pisses me off. Using him as a- But he's okay. He's fine. Still a little grumpy off and on, but he's teething, so. My poor baby. At least he'll never remember this crap. Wish I could. Other than still being worn out some, I'm okay. I think. I mean, I don't feel any different, or anything, so I dunno what the hell anyone wanted to kidnap me for. And Eli, geeze. He's just a shrimp. ...A shrimp that's gonna be a year old in January. Oh my god, already?
