Network Post-Video:

[Demyx does not remember downloading this app but that doesn't bother him. He sometimes forgets doing things and that's fine. Totally not concerned. But when he spies it he fires it up, fiddles around with it and figures out how to make his very first video post!

He's sitting on an unmade bed in his bedroom. Posters of various pop artists are tacked up over it on the wall behind him. He grins into the camera as... sims music..? plays in the background. Currently Demyx just thinks someone in the next apartment over is playing Sims with the volume up loud. That's not the case.]

Hello! My name is Demyx! I'm brand new to this app and I'm super excited to make some new friends on here! I wanted to play you all a song to start off, but my neighbor is being rude and playing games really loud next door! So instead, I'm going to link my YouTube in the description! Come check me out! I take requests!

[Did he just use Libra to plug his YouTube? Yup. He leans out of frame for a moment and hauls an axe into view.]

Also I woke up with this thing in my bed this morning? And I dunno where I got it? Like we all drunk buy things, right? But I wasn't drinking last night... I don't think? Are there even shops around here that sell things like this??

Thank you~! <3

[Demyx is absolutely enthralled. Hanging on every word.]

Ohhhh! Then yeah, I'm a bard!

[You have instantly won him over, Amal. Congrats. I mean. He's easy to win over. But still. Instant is pretty quick even for him.]

So you're not from around here?

[He did pick that bit about ancient histories not being the same up. He has no idea how 'not from around here' Amal actually is.]

[thavnairian]

[Amal absolutely beams.]

I knew it. And that's why I had to say something!

[Bard game recognizes bard game. Even if he's not a bard in the game mechanic sense, he's been known to dabble in the lute.]

I am not! The place I hail from is hot, sticky, and full of spicy food and jungle creatures—the complete opposite of this place, you could say. It's an island called Thavnair, with gorgeous views of crystal clear white beaches, shimmering purple cliffs, and a colorful port city built into the rocks themselves. The nights are even more lovely than the days.

[ocean_songbird]

[Demyx has never heard of Thavnair. But that doesn't strike him as weird.]

Never heard of purple cliffs before but it sounds pretty. What made you leave it to come here to Kaisou?

[thavnairian]

Oh, darling, I'd never choose Kaisou over Thavnair no matter how good the fried food is.

[Even if he's got mixed feelings about it.]

I was kidnapped! By... some force, I suppose, not a person. I was minding my own business waiting for a boat, then I got dragged backwards into the spirit realm. Once I found my way out of that weird place, I ended up in Kaisou.

[ocean_songbird]

Oh...

[That sure is a story.]

That sucks. Sorry you like... got kidnapped. You good, man? Got a place to lay your head and all that?

[thavnairian]

Hahah, I've been here almost a year now. I'm well-established, but I appreciate the concern.

[He rubs at the corner of his mouth and gives a roguish grin.]

One could even say I've gone native.

[ocean_songbird]

Well that's good. Can't imagine being dragged to like... a new place against my will.
