Welcome to Gaia! ::

((In the search to further develop Demyx's character, I realize that it's essential he get out and meet others not in the Organization, so he can realize just how much he's missing out on things in the real world.

This thread is to do just that. Get Demyx out into the world and meet anyone who comes his way. It's an open RP, but I'd -really- appreciate it if one PMed me first and asked about joining, as just jumping in tends to interrupt the flow of an RP at times. I won't mind people joining, honest, just please ask first ^_^))


A harsh tone rang out across the beach, the sitarist cringing as he realized the horrible noise was coming from the instrument in his lap. A defeated sigh escaped his maw as he turned from the instrument to stare out across the ocean. This had been where Baxter had found him oh so long ago, and Demyx often returned here when he felt the need to be alone and relax for a while.

Unfortunately the last thing from his mind was relaxation at this point. What had come to him so easily before was slipping away with each passing moment. His sitar, his beloved instrument and weapon, had been so easy to play before...now he could barely manage a few notes on it. Despite the lack of tone, he could still control water with it, but now the noise sounded like little more than hums, the water twitching along with the vibrating strings beneath his pawtips. It bothered him, to say the least, to watch this happen to himself. What was going on? It was just so strange...and the little Audio simply couldn't understand.

Again he tried to coax a song from the large instrument, and again he failed. Sighing once more, Demyx hugged his sitar, green eyes scanning the ocean before him.

Demyx certainly wouldn't have called it music. Before he could play such beautiful music on the instrument...now he was lucky if he didn't deafen anyone nearby.

He normally would have argued the point, but at the moment the small blonde was far too busy staring out at the water thinking. At least one thing had never changed with him, Demyx had never been very good at concentrating on more than one thing at a time. This little weakness left him completely unaware that anyone else was there, and open for a surprise visit from the visitors.

Frank's yell caught Demyx's attention, the blonde quickly dismissing his sitar into darkness before hopping up to face the newcomers. Demyx's own tail wrapped around his leg for comfort and, at least in his mind, protection.

"W-w-who are you?"

He figeted around a bit, nervously wringing his hands as he watched the others.

Namine? Demyx's head gave a small tilt at that particular introduction. The name was familiar, despite having felt like he had never met her before. Somewhere, a small memory flickered before going away as quickly as it had come. Shaking his head, Demyx focused on Namine and the two with her.

"My name's Demyx..."

Now, Demyx liked meeting new people, but not when they had just startled him right out of some serious thinking. He was also usually quite wary around anyone until they proved themselves to be rather friendly. So for the moment he remained rather fidgety, green eyes darting between the three Audios before him.

"It's n-nice to meet you too..."

Demyx gave a slightly nervous grin, rubbing at the back of his head. These three didn't seem so bad, he just had to calm down was all.

"Just WHAT are you three doing?"

Pft, time to calm down? Demyx wouldn't be getting any of that with Seifer around. As if it wasn't bad enough he had shown up, it was almost for certain his darker 'twin' would show up as well. They hardly went anywhere without each other.

"And why the hell didn't you invite me, hrm?"

The white coated Audio strolled over towards them, moving particularly close to Namine. His typical scowl softened just a bit for her, but remained in place for the others.

The newest arrival sent Demyx right back to his nervous fidgeting, the little blonde whimpering just a bit as he watched them converse.

Seifer huffed, taking a moment to stuff his paws in his coat pockets.

"Well excuseeee me. I was busy being dragged around by Sefirex."

The white coated one rolled his eyes. His twin always insisted on dragging him out to fights, or bars, or something of the sort. He honestly hadn't even checked for a message of some sort. Seifer had taken the earliest opportunity to leave his twin and fled, finding his way here purely by coincidence.

Seifer hardly cast a glance at Frank and Nallin before turning back to Namine.

Demyx jumped a bit at the arm patting, fidgeting even more.

"A s-s-sandcastle?"

Now at least that sounded like fun! Besides, it'd be a good way to relax, as she had said.

"S-s-sure!"

Demyx squeaked as he was tugged off, the little one flailing a bit before following along behind Nallin.

"Blowing up doesn't sound very healthy..."

Seifer grunted slightly as he was hugged, and growled rather loudly as his leg was latched to.

"Hopefully he will....if he's not too busy banging Zexion that is..."

"Hey now, banging him is fun and you know it."

As if knowing he was being talked about, Sefirex stepped up to the others, typical smirk in place on his maw.

"Ya got it babe"

Sefirex managed to smirk at Namine before being latched onto by Frank.

"Yes, I'm here. You may all proceed to bow at my feet and shower me with praise."

Seifer muttered a bit at the darker clad Audio, choosing not to actually say anything to his twin at the moment.

"You w-w-won't?"

Well, that was a relief. At least one of the newcomers was looking out for him.

"I d-d-dunno..."

Demyx blinked before plopping on the ground next to her, playing with the sand as well.
