01 [written/action?]
[There are several things that this avatar is used to. Being surrounded by cold things is certainly not one of them, even if he'd been frozen at some point before and knew it was possible due to Sora if he didn't have the correct charm on at the time. What he also isn't used to is waking up in extreme cold without his coat on or with something on his back brushing against him in an attempt for warmth. At least it seemed warmer to him.
But why is everything black? Did his optics still have bugs in them?
N o p e. Moving and making the snow cocoon break around him makes him realize that whoever decided that this was funny, making a person made of what he is, thought it would be hilarious for him to wake up inside a snowman. It's also just his luck that he trips over a familiar-shaped object before falling backwards into the fountain. Ow... This is just the wake-up he needed right now.
...Wait. This isn't the virtual Hollow Bastion.] Where...?
[That's when he notices the journal nearby, and he blinks at it. It would be far too much of a paradox for a journal to be inside a journal, and this is definitely not-
He tentatively picks it up and skims through it, seeing none of the messages that he'd left for the others to find, but others appearing on the pages as the either spoke or wrote down their thoughts. ...This was peculiar to say the least, but if this was a sort of communication device... Sigh. He begins writing.]
So it was possible...
If anyone actually does see this, would you inform me of where exactly this location is? I'm aware that my world was connected to another, but this is much different than what was previously recorded. Is there a way to return?
[...Heh. Journal using a journal. Maybe after his teeth stop chattering he'll laugh about it. S-s-so c-c-cold... Where is his coat-? Wait...]
...And I'm guessing it's completely normal to wake up with wings. [Oh, the sarcasm. What the glitch?]

action
[It was a small hint, and an incredibly vague one at that, of what he truly is.]
action
[It's suspicious. But, hey, they should be approaching the shop pretty soon.]

action
Place is called Luceti. It's another world, and people here get pulled out of their worlds and cooped up in this village by a group called the Malnosso.
action
He listens to the short explanation, glancing toward the older, real "self" before shaking his head. This was all so strange, and how this group managed to do this--not just pull himself from a computer with all outside lines of communication completely cut, but others from different places as well completely baffles him.]
For what purpose, and what do they gain by doing so? [Concerned? Definitely, but it isn't for his sake...] ... How do they even accomplish this?
action
[He groans, looking less than pleased about it.]
And they do it through a process called Shifting. Guess you could think of it as magic mixed with technology.
action
[Dataku can't blame him, not after what he did back home in accidentally getting a few people trapped in another world, so to speak.]
Hm... Sounds similar to importing.
action
[And importing? Man, what is this guy, a computer hacker?]
I doubt it's that simple.
action
It isn't. I would know. [A beat.] Yet how they managed to import myself here is beyond me...
action
[Okay, sorry, man, but Riku's gotta laugh.]
What's with the computer jargon?
action
...You haven't noticed? [Then again, they're not in a computer at the moment, so. 8|] I guess you could say I'm... rather knowledgeable about anything pertaining to a datascape.
action
[Oookay then.]
So, what? You're a computer program?
action
action
[Man, first replicas and now digital copies?]
Well, I guess it's no weirder than using cards to maneuver a castle.
Re: action
...Cards? [Okay, he seems genuinely amused by that one.] I'm almost afraid to ask.
action
[He shrugs. It was weird alright.]
Place was in a league of its own.
[As far as weirdness goes, anyway.]
action
[Oh man, That One Wall in Traverse Town...]
action
[What? Riku blinks, and then he just sorta stares.]
Like, what? Viruses?
action
action
[Because viruses in the real world. What.]
action
action
[He laughs and brushes one hand through the air.]
So, did Mickey go into some computer, or is there more to it?
action
[And this is the point where the logical, more reasonable Riku portion of his brain begins to conflict with the Sora portion. Logically, he shouldn't be too bothered by what happened because they were doing fine, but the part that's more Sora is saying that no matter how justified in the long run, it was still wrong.
Being corrupted not too long ago probably doesn't help matters any, either.]
... A little of both, actually.
