For his part, Ven had noticed the machine when he and Sora were up to their tricks as pegasi, but since it hadn't been a piece of machinery they could move he'd put it out of his mind. Knowing that it was the time machine made him wish he'd paid more attention to it then - he could've flown up to inspect it from the top at that point, whereas now they were all stuck on the ground.

Granted, they were at least significantly taller than they were, which was pretty awesome. Even with some of them having really silly hairstyles, Ven was not at all objecting to finally being the height he'd wanted to be since Terra finished his own growth spurt. Granted he wasn't quite as tall as Terra - but he could still look him in the eye for the first time ever. Good enough.

Ven crouched in front of the door, putting a hand on it to see if he could budge it and eventually pulling it back when he couldn't do anything to it. "Looks like you're maybe supposed to put something in there, but it's locked."
