Character Relations
Last updated: January 28 2011.

Pawns
Not to say he won't drop you like a brick once you've outlasted your usefulness, however...

Furudo Erika | witchdetective
A young detective Xemnas met shortly after his awakening. She is eager to share information and theories, something the Nobody can only find convenient, convenient enough for Xemnas to subtly fuel her desire for more pieces of knowledge. She's also the one who had invited him to travel towards the basement, and though the attempt had mostly been a futile one they will certainly try again.

Those who are of interest
For one reason or another...

	Yue/Tsukishiro Yukito \| winged_moon Xemnas' roommate, whose nature is certainly a curiosity to Xemnas. Unfortunately, Yue is rather tight-lipped, but Xemnas is a patient man.
	Muraki Kazutaka \| doctorbadtouch A doctor Xemnas met during one of the days. Like Xemnas, he is more interested in studying Landel's Institute and its nature rather than escaping it. After disovering their common interests, they've agreed on sharing information now and then. Xemnas does not trust the man, but it is in his interest to keep an eye on this man.
	Martin Landel \| the_head_doctor While most would feel hatred towards the one that took them captive, Xemnas is more interested in the workings of this curious world, and how the one that pulls the strings accomplishes it. Recent developments with the 'Eagle' suggest otherwise, however, but his interest in the man has yet to waver. The means and the capabilities this man has, they may be worth taking to accomplish his own goals...
	Leon D.S. Geeste \| heraldric Though Xemnas has yet to physically meet this person, he is known for crafting weapons. Xemnas is curious about how this person accomplishes it.

Acquaintances
People the Superior met, but are of no immediate importance.

	Grell Sutcliffe \| deadlyjuliet As far as Xemnas knows this man is a clumsy butler who had fallen into his lap on his first day. Perhaps he will be of some use in the future, but for now he doesn't quite care.
	Kibitoshin \| bitpartgod A clumsy man who appears to look up to Xemnas (bad move, Kibby!) and even asks him for advice. Had the Superior still possessed the capability, he may have been amused at it. As it is, Kibitoshin is but another potential pawn among the masses. Still, the man has said some interesting things, perhaps he is worth a little more energy.
	Raine Sage \| per_ardua A woman that had accompanied Xemnas and the others to the basement. She appears to have an obsession with ruins.
	Damon Gant \| gargantuanlaugh A rather loud and obnoxious man who insists on using nicknames. Claims to be a police-chief. Xemnas allowed him to travel with him simply because company would be convenient for multiply reasons, and though he has no immediate further use, Xemnas prefers not to unnecessarily antoganize people.

Nuisances
At least he won't actively dispose of you just yet. Possibly because you still have some future use, so for now he'll let you be...

Sora | scintillatingly
The wielder of the Keyblade, a boy Xemnas had no qualms manipulating in the past. It is also the boy who had ruined his Kingdom Hearts and caused him to fade into darkness, but fortunately Xemnas does not bother to pursue nonexistent grudges. With the lack of any Heartless in Landel's - or Kingdom Hearts for that matter - the boy has no immediate use for him, but that may change in the future. For now, Xemnas has managed to convince Sora not to meddle in his plans, so the Nobody will let the boy be for the time being. Thankfully, Xemnas knows how to lay low...

Faded
Those who have disappeared.

	Hinamori Momo \| hajike_tobiume One of the first people Xemnas met, and she is the one who told him that 'he' had been present in the institute before (of which he has no recollection whatsoever). She has supplied him with information, but after their first visit to the basement she has since disappeared.
	Manfred von Karma \| perfectrecord A prosecutor Xemnas accompanied during the night whilst prying for information. The man was a conceited one for treated the Superior in a condescending manner, which he allowed for his own purposes. Xemnas believed von Karma was a foolish man clinging to old things, an authority he no longer had. Xemnas had been curious to see if the man's inner darkness could be expanded by fueling the illusion only to break it on a crucial moment, to see how the institute's darkness differed from the one he had once researched. Alas, nothing came of it as the man seemed to have disappeared.
	Xigbar \| numberii Xigbar is the second in rank of the Organization, yet Xemnas knows this man from even before they had become Nobodies as Briag. Still, he is but a mere tool in his plans. Xemnas discovered his presence on the night of the Portals, but it seems II has disappeared since then.

OOC - Timeline

itneverwas — Sun, 10 Jan 2010 13:27:15 GMT

Night 47:

Intro post, M11
After he should have been fading into Nothing after his battle with the Keyblade Masters, Xemnas awakens in a room. He locates a flashlight and discovers his powers are no longer working as they should. Intriqued by all this WTF, he heads out into the hallway.

Moving posts: 01, 02
Xemnas wanders through the dark hallway, which - along with his previous discoveries - remind him of some sort of hospital. However, if this is some sort of hospital, why is there no staff?

Main Hall, 1-west
Xemnas eventually finds himself in a hallway, curious to discover there are more people present. He is soon approached by a girl, who begins to ask him a question.

Stairway by waiting hall/lobby 1
In return for answering, Xemnas decides to try and pry her for the answer he himself is seeking.

Main Hall, 2-west
They discover the messy corpse of a rat. They briefly examine it before Xemnas finally receives a few answers to his questions. He also receives a name; Furudo Erika.

Main Hall, 2-center
As they continue on their way, the pair stumble upon a fight. They decide to move to the chapel in order to observe the battle taking place.

Chapel
After arriving in the chapel, they observe the battle as they continue their conversation and exchange pleasantries.

Day 48:

Breakfast, Cafeteria
After finding himself in his room without any recollection of ever going there, Xemnas learns that - by the appearance of a nurse - the story of the asylum is true. Curiously, she uses the name "Morgan Sheen" and proves to be rather useless when it comes to answering questions. Eventually arriving at the cafeteria for breakfast, a young woman named Hinamori Momo soon joins him at the table. Apparently, he (or as she claims, a version of him) had been at the institute about one month prior.

Second shift, Courtyard
After breakfast, Xemnas enters the courtyard and after taking note of his surroundings, takes a seat upon a bench. He catches the interest of one Grell Sutcliffe, who 'somehow' ends up falling into his lap. Xemnas' reaction (or lack therof) interests Grell even more, but he is unfortunately exposed to the cryptic comments that the Superior provides along with his name.

Lunch, Cafeteria
After the shift in the courtyard, Xemnas is to return to the cafeteria for lunch. He is soon joined by another individual, whom he recognizes as one of the people that had been present in the chapel the other night. Skipping the pleasantries altogether, they discuss some stuff about the chapel.

Fourth Shift, Shower
After lunch, he is to shower with tons of other naked men in one room. Not that he could care any less, but he cleans himself it quickly and...

Fourth shift, Sun Room
...he leaves for the Sun Room. He discovers the Sun room is near the chapel thanks to the super obvious railing, and eventually the existence of the bulletin board, which apparently censored.

Dinner, M11
Time for dinner and for Xemnas to finally meet his roommate. The man doesn't appear to be too talkative, however, but Xemnas doesn't mind. Despite this, they actually manage to get passed the introductions, and his roommate is called Yue. However...

Night 48:

M11
...his roommate suddenly grows a pair of wings when the night falls. Before Xemnas can question the other, Yue more or less rushed out of the room to avoid said questions. Ah well, there's always a next dinner, and the Superior leaves the room soon after.

Moving posts: 01, 02
Xemnas again wanders through a number of hallways, retracing the same route he had walked last night just because.

Main Hall, 1-west
He meets a prosecutor named Manfred von Karma. The man chooses to treat Xemnas like trash, but Xemnas doesn't really care as long as he gets to pry him for information. He gets the older man to agree travelling together as they continue their conversation.

Main Hall, 1-center
While von Karma continues to treat Xemnas as if he's mentally retarded (or ordering around, what have you), Xemnas decides that this man may be interesting to troll a bit. Namely, try to see how much the darkness still influences the heart and fuel the illusion of the authority vK believes he has but no longer possesses. So for now, the Superior decides to play along as they move along their way. And they travel towards the Eastern wing of the institute where they reach the stairs. Xemnas goes first.

Main Hall, 2-East
Eventually they reach the second floor. Taking the detour happened to be a good idea on von Karma's part, considering there is a battle further west down the hallway. They ninja their way towards the next hallway, where von Karma grows increasingly more paranoid about something lingering in the hallway as he opens the door.

Main File Storage
As von Karma officially gets creeped out by Xemnas' calm, they search the contents of these cabinets. The files stored within are practically useless, however, meaning their trip was an exercise in futility. At least Xemnas manages to copy von Karma's map.

Day 49 - Doyleton:

Bus 3
It's time for for an excursion to Doyleton. After the nurse gives him some clothing that isn't even embarrassing, Xemnas enters one of the buses. He is soon joined by Hinamori Momo, and they speak of the previous trips and zombie infections.

Morning: Main Street
Xemnas exits the bus and notices the state of the small town. There are a few signs of distruction along with some graffiti, along with the townspeople who aren't too welcoming to a bunch of lunatics visiting the place.

Morning: The Bookworm
Xemnas heads into the bookstore to see if he can find some information, yet the place is lacking a geographic and a history section. He runs into Erika, and they briefly discuss the radio.

Noon: Twin Pines Restaurant
Xemnas decides to get something to eat and meats Kibitoshin. He manages to confuse the poor man with cryptic ramblings regarding his nonexistence.

Noon: Outside
Xemnas doesn't let the weather stop him from wandering outside on the streets to find anything useful. Though he eventually notices there is one building severely lacking in staff presence, he doesn't get the opportunity to investigate it because...

Late Afternoon: Bill's Hardware
...the weather worsens. Xemnas finds himself being forced inside a random store by the nurses who don't want him to get soaked. In here, he meets Taura and they speak of zombies and other creatures.

Night 49:

M11-M20 Hallway, M-A Block Hallway,
After a quiet busride back and dinner, Xemnas heads outide once the night falls, planning on investigating some areas indicated by his newly acquired maps. He wanders through a number of hallways before...

West Wing, South Hall 1-A
...he runs into Xigbar! It becomes evident that II has been within the institute for quite a while. After being given a pair of knives, Xemnas allows his subordinate to take the lead for practical reasons.

Main Hallway, 1-West
Though Xigbar has acquired an impressive arsenal of weapons, Xemnas realizes that those are not particularly easy to acquire.

Main Hallway, 1-center
As they continue on their way, Xemnas questions II about the other members of the Organization. Though some of them were in the institute at some point, it would seem most have indeed disappeared. They reach the door to the Sun room, except...

Megahit Movies
...they end up in Doyleton. A movie rental to be specific, which Xemnas recognizes from his afternoon-investigation of the small town. Though the both of them were interested in this curious development, they didn't get any further considering Xemnas' mun failed in posting that NS.

Day/Night 50:

Because the mun was on hiatus, Xemnas spend this period asleep in his room, completely missing out on the language event during the nightshift. Baaaaw.

Bulletin posts:
Toy crafting: ...yet due to Landel's Logic, he catches wind of Leon's offer to creat 'toys'. He orders a pair of daggers under the false name of 'Morgan Sheen', having realized that there may be others who are familiar with his real name and may choose to interfere.

Day 51:

Breakfast, Cafeteria
Though there was a distinct lack in progress in having spend a whole day and night fast asleep, Xemnas can't help but to be curious about it. During breakfast he meets Erika, who offers a bit more information about the language event that night.

Second shift, Men's Showers
Another shower shift. Xemnas finishes up quickly before he heads to the Sun room.

Second shift, Sun Room
Xemnas investigates the bulletin board upon his arrival in the Sun room, and among those related to the Arts&Crafts, he discovers notices signed by Sora and Riku. Realizing their presence could be both useful and a hindrance, he decides to lay low for the time being. Turning around, he locates Kibitoshin attempting to hide from von Karma on a sofa. They briefly discuss von Karma, nonexistence and Kibitoshin's curious age. Apparantly, the other patient is part of a different type of being.

Lunch, Cafeteria
Xemnas is approached by Endrance, but the conversation is cut short before there were many exchanges to begin with.

Fourth Shift, Arts&Crafts
Xemnas spend a quiet shift by himself, observing the other patients.

Dinner, M11
When a different person walks through the door - a boy introducing himself as Tsukishiro Yukito - Xemnas initially thinks his roommate has been replaced with another. However...

Bulletin posts:
An Underground Puzzle - Erika invites Xemnas to help solving 'a puzzle with an underground adventure theme', meaning the basement. Xemnas accepts.

Night 51:

M11
Once the night falls, it's revealed that Yukito and Yue are actually the same person as the former transforms into the latter. Before Xemnas could begin asking questions, Yue has already left the room. Well, there will doubtlessly be future dinners anyway.

Moving posts: 01, 02, 03, 04
Xemnas travels the hallways towards the female blocks, where he's supposed to meet the Basement Party.

F-A Block Hallway
Xemnas locates the remainder of the Basement Party, which other than Erika consists of Hinamori Momo and a young woman named Raine Sage. Most LMAO companions for Xemnas ever. Anyway, after some very brief introductions they don't waste time with moving. They end up taking the back route as the Sun Room usually has a guard.

Recreational Field
Despite their best intentions to cross the field as quickly as possible, an angry ghost decides to hinder them by hanging onto Erika's skirt. Xemnas comes up with a solution to the problem which involves some skirt-ripping and a display of his lack of understanding the importance of pretty garments, but they all manage to escape in one piece. They reach the Courtyard, the Cafeteria and the Kitchen without any problems.

Walk-in Refrigerator
The party reaches the Walk-in Refrigerator, which supposedly holds a trap door leading to the basement. Erika attempts to find her, but the riddle is spoiled in favor of progress, making the young detective butthurt. No one cares though, so they move on.

The Grand Ballroom
Erika is still butthurt and Raine goes into Ruin-mode once they reach the Grand Ballroom. Xemnas discovers two artifacts are needed to open the door they want to go through, but before they actually manage to open it the night ends. Well, at least he found out the location of the basement along with the requirements to enter the next room; two artifacts and four people.

Day 52:

Breakfast, Cafeteria
Xemnas meets one police chief called Damon Gant, who immediately decides to call the poor Nobody 'Xemmers', who doesn't quite approve but whatever, no hard feelings and all. Gant asks him if he likes swimming, and Xemnas asks in turn why it is important because he doesn't exist and all that which weirds Gant out. The conversation ends with Gant thinking Xemmers is one weird, new-age hippie.

Second shift, Library
Xemnas is once more harrassed by his favorite stalker Erika. He lets her copy his maps in the hopes of her getting more juicy information for him.

Lunch, Cafeteria
It seems Xemnas attracts meddling kids by default, because Sora decides to sit with him during lunch. Not to have a pleasant conversation though, because he wasn't to make sure Xemnas doesn't have any Evil Plans going on. Xemnas isn't telling though, instead pissing the kid off and they somehow manage to agree not to get in each other's way.

Fourth shift, Game room
Xemnas bugs Kibitoshin for a bit, and ends up prying for information about monsters. He isn't too successful, unfortunately.

Dinner, M11
With his roommate fast asleep, it becomes impossible to question him. Instead he plans his route for some metal hunting for the night.

Bulletin posts:
Consideration: In superbig font, Kibitoshin asks after the well-being of his acquaintances, including Xemnas. So much for laying low...

Night 52:

Moving posts: 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09
Xemnas quickly travels through the dark hallways, purposely taking the detour on the first floor to take the stairs in the Eastern wing to avoid unnecessary delays. Without any problems, he manages to reach the Janitor's Closet superfast.

Janitor's Closet
The place is a mess, but after breaking down the door Xemnas acquires the supply of metal he needs, taking some spare ones just in case. He also takes nearly the all of contents within the tool kit. Sharing is for losers.

East Wing, Hall A
Plenty of time left, but the supply of metal is pretty impractical to drag around so Xemnas decides to return it to his room first. As he goes on his way, however, the intercom makes its existence known. It barely finished when all the lights in the institute went on all at once accompanied by a high-pitched whine. Some lights burst while others only flickered, but the place still remained lighted. So much for travelling in the dark.

Stairwell by Medical Wing
Xemnas continues on his way and catches movement in the corner of his eye. Dun dun dun...

Moving posts: 01, 02, 03, 04
Xemnas continues to travel through the hallways, occasionally catching even more movement in the corner of his eye. Still, he manages to reach his room without any problems and dumps his newly acquired supplies in there. He still has time to spare, so he heads out of his room again to explore.

Moar moving posts: 01, 02
Xemnas moves through a couple of hallways again, having decided to try and explore the Western wing of the institute.

Main Hall, 2-West
His progress is finally cut short when Xemnas is attacked by a Lucentien. Interested by such a curious creature, the Superior decides to fight it. He finds out that its skin cannot be penetrated, but despite any injuries he eventually manages to floor it. Its actions make Xemnas conclude that if it had a weakness, it must be upon its back. His estimation proves to be a correct one, but the battle isn't over just yet. After exchanging some cuts while Xemnas' shadow goes into the second stage of the event while announcements on the intercom play on the background. Xemnas finally locates an opening and stabs the creature in the back. It dies and spills golden blood, but the night ends before Xemnas could get a sample. The shadow that was supposed to step away from the wall and troll him never did, because the mun couldn't think of anything to use against him even though he fitted all requirements.

Day 53:

Breakfast, Cafeteria
Xemnas is soon joined by Kibitoshin who *gasp* asks him for advice!

Second Shift, Sun room
When looking for someone to question about last night, he meets Grell. Unfortunately, he doesn't get all that many answers.

Lunch, Cafeteria
Xemnas meets Muraki, a fellow creeper. They happen to share a common interest in studying the institute, so they agree to share information. Not much sharing got done though, because the shift ended.

Fourth shift, Sun room
He is bugged by Erika again, who recruits him for her Basement Adventures Party. He also FINALLY acquires some information about last night, and she ends up inviting herself to his weapon-making excursion.

Dinner, M11
Xemnas finally has the opportunity to fire questions at his unfortunate roommate. He's rather tight-lipped though, so when the night rolls around Xemnas isn't much wiser.

Night 53:

M11
After Yue flees the room, Xemnas finds his Organization XIII coat in his closet. After a brief moment of changing, he leaves his room.

Moving posts: 01, 02
Xemnas travels through the hallways, again. Nothing new here.

Main Hallway, 1-West
Since he somewhat missed out on last night's event, Xemnas decides to take someone with him in case something would occur again so he can observe. Said Test Subject happens to approach him in the form of Gant, who looks like a walking target. Xemnas doesn't mind and he recruits him in travelling towards the Eastern wing with him. They reach the stairs without any problems.

Main Hallway, 2-West
They observe a monster fight for a moment, but the Necrits aren't very interesting to they move on.

Moving posts: 01, 02, 03
More hallway-crawling, and they notice someone has gone ahead before them. Not that it matters. They reach the deconamination room, but it isn't very interesting.

Eperimental Treatments Laboratory
They reach the experimental treatments laboratory, which is empty. Xemnas helps himself to some supplies before moving onto the next room.

Animal Test Subjects Kennel
Xemnas was more interested in seeing the test subjects, which he finds in the form of deformed animals. Gant's freaking out while Xemnas calm remains as unruffled as ever. He theorizes that the sights before him has to do with the creation of some of the monsters, but they don't learn anything more. They return to the Experimental treatments laboratory.

Equipment/Chemical Storage
The next room is a storage, and the both of them help themselves to some supplies before they go back to the Experimental Treatments Laboratory.

Autopsy Room 2
They reach one of the two Autopsy Rooms, which freaks Gant out a bit.

Morgue
Once they reach the morgue and Xemnas casually begins to investigate every single drawer (which are all empty), he questions Gant about his want for a confirmation. As a police chief, it should've been obvious it was a morgue after all and denying it is one is foolish.

Day 54

Hiatus, yet Xemnas was awake due to bulletin-logistics, just not available for theading. It means he witnessed the military folks wandering about, the foodfight in the cafeteria along with the institute's measures against the riot and the effects of teargas.

Bulletin:
Toy Crafting part two: Leon signals it's 'Morgan's turn to have a 'toy' crafted.

Night 54
