Triple Terrific Party Time! [OPEN]

Characters: Pinkie Pie, open
Content: So many things to celebrate, so little time!
Location: The recreation deck
Warnings: Zidane may not be genocidal anymore, but he does have a certain karaoke machine...

[Pinkie's announcement after Discord's defeat wasn't just hot air. As soon as five minutes after the chaos god's last cry echoed throughout the ship, there's already music blaring out the open doors of the recreation deck. As if in defiance of Discord's attack on her there, Pinkie's filled the place with even MORE balloons than typical for one of her parties. Above the main refreshment table - which is clearly the one with the biggest cake on it - there's a few banners. The topmost one reads SO LONG DISCORD! Right below it is a smaller one saying SORRY FOR BEING A MEANIE. The bottom one is a little larger and written in a different color HAPPY LATE HEARTS AND HOOVES DAY! In all the chaos, she'd completely FORGOTTEN a holiday; could you believe it? But she was totally going to make it up now, with a party to beat all parties!]

"Yeah, but when it was... I don't know. A long time ago, so long I didn't even know about it until really recently. The world where it happened is dead and lifeless, only rocks and dust storms. As far as I can tell, even most of the legends about it have been forgotten, and probably that's the reason there aren't a lot of Keyblade users now. Before I came here, I only knew... uhh," and he starts to count on his fingers, "me, Terra, Aqua, Master Eraqus, Master Yen Sid but he's retired now, Mickey, and Master Xehanort."

Everyone had bad memories in their lives, even someone who couldn't remember most of it. Ven didn't mind that she'd asked about it - heck, he was curious himself. He just didn't know more to answer her with.

"I see." Xion tilted her head to one side in thought. "Too bad nobody knows that much about it." Her expression turned wistful. "If there were that many once, I wonder if it could be that way again."

Not that she wanted another fight to happen, but it was interesting to think about what it would be like if there were a lot of Keyblade wielders to meet and learn from. She only knew a few of those Ven listed. "So, Master Eraqus was your teacher, and Terra and Aqua are your friends. Who are the others?"

And his expression turned even more somber at that, which probably startled her. But he began explaining it before she could ask, because he wants to make this clear. "I don't know if we want to know about it. That's what happened to Master Xehanort - he was Master Eraqus' best friend, they trained together under the same Master. But he started researching about those legends and found the Graveyard, and he exposed himself to Darkness, and he was corrupted by it. He turned all to Darkness - he was trying to recreate the war, so he could summon Kingdom Hearts. Me, Terra, and Aqua were fighting him and his apprentice Vanitas to stop them from succeeding, and... that's the last thing I remember before showing up here."

Unhappy memories? Yep, despite his general demeanor, Ven definitely had them.

"Master Yen Sid lives in a giant tower, and he used to be a Keyblade Master but I think he's mostly just a Sorcerer now. And Mickey's his apprentice, but he's also a King, too. They're both really good people."

Xion mulled his explanation and description of various people over for a few moments before responding. She could understand why Ven was so wary of looking into the Keyblade Wars and the history behind them, but there was one nagging thought. Even if there was a risk, wouldn't it be a good idea to learn as much as they could so they could try to prevent something like that from happening again? Or at least be reassured that they knew as much about it as Xehanort, if they had to fight him again. Given Ven's response, she wasn't going to bring that up now, but it was something to keep in mind. "Have you talked to any of the others about this? I mean, I'm sure Terra and Aqua know as much as you do, but the others...maybe we could all meet to share information."

Granted, Mickey and Yen Sid weren't here, but they could at least discuss it amongst themselves.

"Me and Roxas and Sora've talked about it, some." Of course that conversation had also included the ever-classic discussions about 'Why does Roxas look like Ven and not Sora' and 'Who did Master Xehanort possess.' They'd kind of gotten sidetracked from other topics. "Getting together everyone from home would probably be a good idea, though. It sounds like Terra and Aqua don't remember much more than me, but at least we could try and piece everything together."

It's a good idea Xion, he doesn't object to it.

"Good. Then let's try to get everyone together to pool information." She was relieved Ven agreed with her on that. It would be good to get everyone on the same page. Though there was Isa. He really seemed to not want Lea to know too much about their future. Much as Xion thought Lea had a right to have a few things cleared up, if the others objected, or if Lea himself didn't want to know anymore...

She shook her head to clear her thoughts and tried to smile. "For now, let's enjoy the party."

Ven would say that wasn't Isa's call, but rather Lea's. But he wasn't sure what all that was about, since he was from so early in the timeline - Lea and Isa were good guys, after all. His friends.

Ven smiled at that very slight admonishment, nodding at her. "Right. Otherwise Pinkie's gonna come over here and make us dance."

Xion would agree with Ven; it really was Lea's decision. She was mostly thinking about avoiding a potential argument if the subject came up. Lea was a friend, and she got along surprisingly well with Isa in most cases.

She smiled back at him. "And we don't know if we'll like the music she'd pick."

"Ahh, Pinkie's got pretty good taste. And dancing's pretty easy, too." At least, for him it was. He tended to think it was easier than it really was because it was one of his talents. Of course, he didn't really know it was a talent... he'd never tried to cultivate it. "If her worst punishment is making us dance, I'd say we'd get off pretty lightly."

"That's true." Xion laughed. "I'd never danced before the Christmas party, but it was fun."

She didn't know if she had any talent for it, but it hadn't been that difficult. Then again, MakubeX had at least known enough to show her some of the basics.

"So what do you like to do, then? I mean, what do you like to do for fun?"

Ven knew he didn't have a lot of hobbies, but he always liked hearing about other people's.

Sadly, Xion was pretty much in the same boat as Ven when it came to hobbies.

"I didn't have much time for fun--training kept us all really busy."

"You, too? We did a lot of training - there's a few things I like to do, but mostly I just stuck to training."

He didn't really feel bad about that, either - it was just the way his life was. Eraqus was very serious about being a Keyblade Master, after all, and it had gotten passed down to Ven.

"For us it was missions, and training afterwards. I'd always to to get ice cream with my friends, though."

Life in the Organization didn't leave a lot of time for personal pursuits, and Xion and Roxas had the handicap of not even knowing what a hobby was.

"At least you did that. Me and Aqua and Terra liked to go watch the stars out on this one ledge in the castle grounds - you could see everything from out there, all the worlds and shooting stars and everything. As long as you get to spend time with people you like, that's the important thing, isn't it?"

Xion nodded. "It is. Looking at the stars sounds like fun--we never really got to do that."

"Well, you can do it here then. Isn't there that big window up on one of the decks? You can probably see all the stars better up here anyway, since there's no air or light to get in the way."

He was planning on making a trip up there himself at some point soon.

"There's actually a couple of places that have big windows--the cafeteria and the nature deck." Those were her favorite places to watch the stars on her own.

"That's true- Hey, I've got an idea!" This... might actually be one of his better ones! "Maybe one day when everyone just needs a break from something, we get Pinkie or someone to help us set up a picnic on the Nature Deck so we can all watch the stars together. Maybe even during a meteor shower!"

He had a special place in his heart for meteor showers.

Her face lit up at that idea.

'That'd be great. Like a party, but outside."

She hadn't ever seen a meteor shower, but if she had, she'd probably think they were as great as Ven did.

Meteor showers were one of the most awesome things ever. Trufax.

"Yeah, and everyone could come and just hang out and have a good time. We probably shouldn't do this when we're all affected by something, though."

Ponies can have picnics, after all, but the food selection would be horribly limited.

She'd have to see one for herself, then.

"Yeah, we should plan it for a time when things are mostly normal."
