[When the screen pops up, there is a spiky haired blond on the screen. A small, mouse like creature sits on his shoulder squeaking softly. The boy sighs before smiling softly.]

Hey, Johto. Guess I’m back here again. Part of me is really happy to be back! The other part? I guess that doesn’t really matter. It’ll just be there, like nothing happened when I get to go back.

[He gives the little mouse some attention by scratching it under the chin, which earns him a contended squeak.]

For those who don’t know me, I’m Roxas. I was here a while ago. I don’t really know how long I was gone, so I don’t know if some of my old friends are still here. If you are, hey guys! Our adventures not over yet. Oh!

[Roxas moves the little mouse into his arms.]

This little guy is a Dedenne, and his name is Vivi.

[He looks back at the screen, more serious this time.]

Rin, if you’re still here and have Braig…. I don’t want him back. Ever.

[[ooc: anyone in the area, feel free to hit him up with an action tag.]]

[He wasn't human either...and he still doubts him. That is by far the cruelest thing Teddie's ever heard, how can anyone be so mean?]

T-That's not fair! You can't just say who is and isn't good enough to come here! I really am a bear, why would I make something like that up?!

I talked to someone here who was a magical pony that could talk like a human and thought like a human in her world. If you were really a normal bear, then you wouldn't be smart like that! So were you a normal beat or a not normal bear?

[Please say not normal, or this conversation will keep going for long time.]

[Teddie opens his mouth like he's ready to object, but stops himself as he hangs his head. He's really going to make him say it, isn't he? Couldn't be happy with "just a bear," could he?]

I'm...I'm not normal...

[And it's not exactly something he feels good about.]

[Roxas likes making sense of the things around him. Mostly because he really hates people not telling him things.]

Being not normal is fine. I didn't have my own heart before coming here the first time.

No it's not, it's not fine. I dunno how you can just say that if you know how it feels.

[Normalness is a very sensitive subject for bears.]

I didn't ask to not be normal, you didn't have to go and rub it in my face. "Bear" was a good answer...

Hey... at least being a bear is better than being a Nobody. You have something to go back to when you go home!

[You get to keep being your own person/thing.]

W-What do you mean?

[Taking "nobody" just a wee bit literally, Teddie can't understand how bringing a normal bear is "wrong" but somehow bringing absolutely nothing was doable. ELABORATE.]

Y-You shouldn't say that kinda stuff about yourself, you're somebody.

Oh... a Nobody is someone created without a heart.

[See? He's not putting himself down!]

[O-Oh. It's like- Okay, he sort of gets it. But at the same time, it throws him off. When he was hollow, he didn't exactly have a heart either, but it doesn't feel like those are the same thing. Investigation is a go.]

L-Like...a heart-heart, or t-the feeling?

The feelings. They belonged to the person I was created from... so I had memories of their feelings. If that makes sense?

[How else can he explain it????]

[Being a being made completely of feelings, meeting a being completely void of feelings is...different.]

You're like the opposite Teddie!

[So yes, it makes sense, but in a weird way only Teddie can understand.]

T-Tell me more!

H-Huh?

[Wait what now. Opposite Teddie? Is that... an insult or a compliment?]

Like what? I don't know what you want me to say!
