END OF ARC 1: DAY 169-170 DOWNTIME

[The first battle is over, but the second will begin any time. For two days, the enemy forces will remain on the other side of the battlefield, working on strategy and tending to their wounded. Both sides have taken heavy losses, and the Arena is full of the hurt and dying.

The battlefield itself has turned to a bloody, muddy mess. The elves will be asking the Army Engineers group and anyone else willing to help them lay timber and gravel out to make the ground easier to walk on for the next battle.

What will you do in your breathing space? Keep working, mourn your losses, or retreat from the horrors of war?]


[ooc note: This log takes place IC on Days 169-170/Nov 4-7. Please be sure you've read the plot post and the battle log's starting info thoroughly. Make absolutely sure that you include the day/rough time in the subject line of top-level comments, as well as if your thread is open or closed.

In addition to the battle log, there is a full-event log for those hiding out in Folkvang here. If you have any questions, please direct them to the mod post so everyone else can see them!]

169 - Evening

[Sora is in the arena, with dried mud still stuck in his hair and clinging to his clothing. What matters is he's alive and not suffering any life-threatening wounds. Hercules is safe in his room in Freya, surrounded by all the edible greens that could fit into the space. With his pet taken care of, Sora is free to move around and talk to old friends and new faces.

Either he isn't being observant or Lea is a master at blending into scenery (or maybe both) because Sora doesn't notice him the first time he passes. The second time, not long after the first, he stops for a chat.]


Hey Axel, how are you doing?
tenacityformed: (Lea: you sure about that?)

[personal profile] tenacityformed 2012-11-07 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
[Lea can blend in when he wants, but the truth is also that Sora can be rather unobservant. Though to be fair, he almost doesn't recognize him the first go around under all of that mud and dirt.

He's missing his coat, having decided to just ditch it since Namine had to cut it away to get at his earlier injury. Luckily he managed to rustle up a relatively clean black t-shirt.

There's no point in trying to correct Sora about his name at this point.]


Well, look who it is. What've you been up to?

Besides rolling around in the mud.

[personal profile] trinitylimit 2012-11-07 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
[At that, Sora rubs his hand against his cheek, then wipes what he figures is dirt on his already filthy shorts. He doesn't take offense to Lea's comment; it translates as a playful jab. He's capable of forming retorts.]

I've been fighting too. Don't you know a warrior when you see one?

Didn't know warriors could be so shrimpy, most of the enemies probably just looked right over your head. Sure all that dirt isn't because they just trampled right over you?

[reaches out and wipes more grime off his nose.]

[personal profile] trinitylimit 2012-11-07 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
[He makes a face as the dirt on his nose is brushed away and swats at the other's hand. It's not being touched that makes him react this way, it's how he takes it as being almost babied.]

I trampled all over them! When they fell, they splashed mud on me. I couldn't stop it.
tenacityformed: (Lea: oh you're so fascinating)

[personal profile] tenacityformed 2012-11-07 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
[What Sora you're dirty - but he snatches his had back before it gets swatted anyway.]

Uh huh.

Well if you're this energetic you must not be in too bad of shape.

[personal profile] trinitylimit 2012-11-07 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
I'm a little sore and my head hurts but I'm okay. What about you?

[Sora notices he isn't wearing his usual coat. Maybe it's for the best, he thinks, it's probably heavy.]
tenacityformed: (It's like this you know)

[personal profile] tenacityformed 2012-11-07 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
Glad to hear it. Got a little scraped up earlier, but fine now.

[shrugs. He's not really missing the coat.]

So how's the rest of our crew doing?

[personal profile] trinitylimit 2012-11-08 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
I talked to Riku earlier. He looks okay. I haven't heard from Kairi, Roxas, Naminé or Ventus.

[Sora doesn't bring up Vanitas. He's still trying to figure out what their connection is, and they're not friends anyway.]

Have you met Ventus? He looks like Roxas but they're totally different people.
tenacityformed: (s m i l e)

[personal profile] tenacityformed 2012-11-08 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
Roxas and Namine are fine.

[likewise he's not terribly concerned about Vanitas.

Ventus is another issue, and he can't help his lips twitching up into an ironic smile.]


Yeah, I know.

[they go waaaaay back, Sora.]

[personal profile] trinitylimit 2012-11-11 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Then that leaves Kairi. You haven't seen her?

[If not, he's going to look for her. Sora won't be able to rest without seeing her safe.]
tenacityformed: (Lea: i think best when I fold my arms)

[personal profile] tenacityformed 2012-11-11 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[shakes his head]

Can't say that I have. Sorry.

[hasn't even really run into her since he got here, so he still kind of owes her that apology Sora made him promise.]

[personal profile] trinitylimit 2012-11-13 12:47 am (UTC)(link)
Oh... That's okay. I know my other friends are safe.

[He gives Lea a soft punch to the arm. It's to keep things light.]

I have to go find Kairi. Want to come with me?
tenacityformed: (Lea: come on let's enjoy the ride)

[personal profile] tenacityformed 2012-11-13 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
[ruffles Sora's hair in return~]

Sure. Maybe we'll find someplace you can take a bath, too.

[personal profile] trinitylimit 2012-11-13 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
[Sora makes a small noise when the ruffling starts. He doesn't remember Axel being so touchy.]

I don't think Kairi will mind the dirt.
tenacityformed: (Lea: oh you're so fascinating)

[personal profile] tenacityformed 2012-11-13 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
[it's not like he made a habit of being touchy with people he technically was enemies with. But it's not like he's about to drape himself all over people now.]

Meant for later. She'll probably tell you you need one, too.

[personal profile] trinitylimit 2012-11-13 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
You're right!

[She was always the first one to call him out on being dirty or lazy. It makes sense she'd do the same now.]

I'll tell her I'll do it later. Come on, let's go find her! I bet she's where all the action is.
tenacityformed: (Lea: You sure about that?)

[personal profile] tenacityformed 2012-11-13 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
[liiiiifts an eyebrow.]

You don't mean the fighting, right?

[would be very surprised if Sora let her actually, you know - fight in a battle.]

[personal profile] trinitylimit 2012-11-13 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
Fighting? Maybe...

[He's a little quiet with worry. She has very limited experience with battles. However, they are on equal footing with powers.]

She's pretty tough. I bet she can take care of herself. Maybe we'll get ready for the next battle together anyway.
tenacityformed: (Lea: hey let's get ice cream)

[personal profile] tenacityformed 2012-11-13 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah? Guess we better go find her just to make sure. Bet she doesn't want you or Riku to worry too much about her.

[personal profile] trinitylimit 2012-11-13 02:37 pm (UTC)(link)
So let's go!

[Sora reaches out to snatch one of Lea's arms and make him tag along. It's a sign of trust; Sora doesn't touch and lead just anyone.]
tenacityformed: (Lea: you sure about that?)

[personal profile] tenacityformed 2012-11-14 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah--whoa-!

[aweogjaowejf tugged along by Sora. Okay, he can't help but smile a bit. But dude he's gonna cramp up if he has to stoop like this the whole way you know.]
