((OOC: Um, Ivor? You can't RP a character until you've put their profile up. And you can't control other people's characters either. It's against the rules. Sorry. I'm not trying to be a bitch, but I'm gonna ignore that post. Also, I think you need to read the posts a little bit more. My character's name is Rae, not Rajia. Rajia's just my username. Also, the character won't know each other like that unless you organize it with their players. One more thing is, you should really read the characters' profiles to understand their personalities, histories and such. Once again, I'm not trying to be a bitch, but it's just the way it is. If you're new to roleplay, you should probably read all the rules and a few other roleplays to the gist of it, then start.))

((OOC: Sorry for the double post.)) "Hey..you came." Rae stared down at him as her tore his eyes away from the pool of blood. He was staring at her legs. Rae quickly ended his "view," walking towards the balcony looking ledge that overlooked the castle of Radiant Garden. She sat up on the ledge, swinging her legs over it and letting them dangle. It was a long drop to the bottom, but this was like her usual spot. "Quit lookin' at my legs... stare at my ass and I'll stab you." Rae looked down behind her at his hand which was pouring out wih blood. "You gonna do something about that?" she would, but... she was a Nobody. She honestly couldn't give a shit. Let him bleed. It'll teach him for using sharp objects irresponsibly. "You're not from this world. Where are you from?" the question hit the girl like an on-coming train. Her eyes opened wide, her past and the heartless attack came flooding back. All this time, she'd been trying to bury it forever, but now this guy had brought it all up again. She didn't reply, instead, shut her eyes and hung her head. Her hair fell in front of her face, shielding it from his view. The girl hung her right hand down the side of the ledge, out of sight, clicking her fingers silently, sending off small, black sparks. As she sensed the heartless still behind her, the young girl took a deep breath, swung her legs back over the ledge, stood up and started walking further into the bailey. If he wanted to follow, she wouldn't stop him, but she was certainly hesitant to answer that question. As her mood began to change from content to... how would you describe a nobody's sad mood? Antisocial? The air temperature around her began to drop significantly. It grew much colder in a matter of seconds.

Looking at the girl who had taken a seat on the ledge that blocked his view on his left, he waited for her to answer but suddenly the words about looking at her butt finally made sense to him. If only he hadn't turned out to be bloody, plain curious and full of confusing thoughts.. Dimitri sure would of had made a cocky comment and smirked at the word ass. One of his favorites. Probably would have stared at it a little longer than the two seconds he had now, merely being an innocent looking. But again, he wasn't in the mood. He just wanted to get an answer. The girl however, didn't seem to bother to give him one. Or was it something she didn't wish to talk about? He did notice her hang her head so a curtain of dark hair blocked his questioning blue eyes from seeing the expression she could have had on her face. Watching her get of the stone ledge to walk further into the Bailey, it only confirmed she had gotten upset with his question. This would also confirm she indeed was from another world. But then, it wasn't a specific answer. The guy wanted know about the world she had been coming from, maybe he would remember it. He wanted to know how she had made her way to this world and if there was a way to get out for him. A deep sigh escaped the mans lips and looked down at the little shadow that stared at him for a short while. The being then faithfully followed the girl out of the area that seemed to have gotten colder, sending a couple chills up his spine. Odd.
After getting up to follow the girl, wanting to get some answers still, Dimitri growled softly while walking outside into a different area where the sun shone bright in his face again. Growling because he felt the pain in his hand getting worse. His right hand then went up to his left shoulder, gave a tug or two to rip the short sleeve off of his shirt and wrap it around his wounded hand. The guy didn't have a clue how to exactly take care of an injury but knew he couldn't just leave it open. Dimitri leaned against the brick wall behind him, trying to make a proper bandage out of the sleeve, and opened his mouth to speak.
"How many have you been visiting?", he paused for a brief moment to admire his masterpiece bandage. It looked like crap. "I mean, you probably don't just hang around this town all day when having the ability to travel other worlds, right?" Dimitri wasn't sure if she indeed was able to travel or was trapped in this world just like him, but took the guess.

Rae heard him growl at his hand behind her. So he did follow. He was very persistant. Maybe if Rae just gave him a bit of an answer, he would leave her alone. But at the same time... it was none of his business, and Rae really didn't want to drag it up again. "How many have you been visiting? I mean, you probably don't just hang around this town all day when having the ability to travel other worlds, right?" Rae suddenly stopped in front of him. She didn't turn around, only turned her head to look at him out of the corner of her eye. "I don't. What makes you think I can?" What made him so interested in her? What was it about Rae that had gotten him so intrigued? The girl finally turned to face him. Her face had gone pale and her deep blue eyes were wide. "I've been here in the Bastion for two years. And they have been the only years of my life that I've enjoyed living." Even though I have no heart, she thought. "Why me? Why are you so interested in me?"

"I don't. What makes you think I can?"
Dimtri stopped his movements, only letting his eyes move up to look at the dark haired girl who had stopped in front of him. He wondered if she was lying to him. Though he couldn't find a possible motive for her to lie. Still he just wished she was. His gaze averted, then back to his hands that continued wrapping the with blood stained sleeve a different way now. To his own frustration the sleeve on top of the cut was saturated in no time. Hmph.. Dimitri still didn't give the girl an answer. Not really having or trying to think of one. Instead he brought his good hand up to his right sleeve, pulling at it once with a little more strength than he had before, having the cotton fabric ripped off neatly along the sleeve's seam. Bringing the sleeve up to his mouth to bite into the cloth, he started cutting it with his teeth until having it divided. Dimitri didn't know where his strength was coming from nor did he realize he was stronger than the average male who also lived in the bastions. The guy never really had to rely on his strength anyway, being the lazy ass he was.
There. he thought, sufficed this time. He hadn't even needed the girls help. Not that she had actually offered to help. Come to think of it, what was up with her being so cold? Anyone else would have at least shown some sympathy. Not that the older guy cared. Half the time he hadn't payed attention to the wound anyway. It just had him a little curious. With both his upper arms revealed now and thumbs hooked on the loops of his black pants, pulling slightly, Dimitri brought his face up to let his head rest against the wall and slightly in his neck. His eyes looked down from the girl to the heartless, moving back to the girl as she spoke up.
"I've been here in the Bastion for two years. And they have been the only years of my life that I've enjoyed living."
For some reason disappointment had hit Dimitri worse and was easily shown by his piercing blue eyes now. Was there really no way of getting out for him after all? Not that the town was a horrible place to live in.. to be quite frank.. Also he had been living in it for a couple months only. The desire to leave must have just gotten into him one day. Maybe he did wish to find out who he was after all. He had tried to push off those thoughts telling himself to just get over it. Somewhere knew things couldn't have gone the right way before he ended up in his new world and was probably better off not knowing. But the time he had been sure to notice someone who was from a different also, brought it all back. The wish to visit what was out there had suddenly felt as something to come true. For as far as Dimitri's memory went, he for the first time had felt genuine excitement. Now deprived from it by mere words.
"Why me? Why are you so interested in me?"
"I'm not.", was his response that spoke against his own thoughts, and closed his eyes. "I'm just trying to find myself a way out of here." Dimitri opened his eyes to give the girl a better look, tilting his head slightly to the side. Her eyes were telling him his questions were only upsetting her, and her sudden pale face just didn't look quite healthy. "Are you ok?"

Rae noticed him eye the heartless for a moment before looking turning to her. He deep blue eyes moved down to the little shadow. She knelt down beside it. Rae had never actually touched it before, besides the occasional tripping over it, and wasn't sure what exactly what she should do. The young girl held out her hand towards it, letting it sniff her. At least... that's what she assumed it was doing. Rae had become quite accustomed to having heartless around, particularly the shadows. She knew all about them, but there was the question as to why this one had not attacked him yet. "I'm not. I'm just trying to find myself a way out of here." Rae's interest was sparked almost instantly. "Why would you want to leave? I mean... I'm sure you have a home to go to, and you work at that icecream parlour don't you? At least you have a way of making munny..." Rae stood up to face him once more. "Are you ok?" Did she look it? Well let me think... the young nobody thought. I've lost everything, including a heart, my only friend is a heartless that has nothing better to do than follow me around all day long, and now, these white things with funny symbols on their heads are really starting to irritate me. That was all the things she really wished to say, but instead, only a small "I'm fine," was uttered.

"I guess."
Dimitri indeed had a home to go to. Well, for now that was. The owner of the icecream- shop had found out Dimitri hadn't a place to stay, so had made him an offer to stay at his place until he had enough money together to live on his own. Even if the older man had said he could stay as long as he wished, he would have left eventually. Let's just say there were certain rules he with difficulty obeyed. Also had he thought about the situation the exact same way. He had pretty much everything he needed here, and everything he didn't....So why did he want to leave? Dimitri shrugged, but knew very well the answer. He just needed to make up his mind whether or not to tell her. The guy wasn't someone to go and just tell about himself unless it be some cocky statement.. Though, there really wasn't much to tell.
"I've lost my memories.." There. Your answer, he thought looking at her. Something, though, still pushed him to clarify himself. "I don't know who I am, where I'm from, or how I ended up here.. So yeah, you could say my mind here is a mess and am trying to find out more about myself.. to have things start making sense." he added, looking down at the two. ... Talk about a messed up mind.. What is she doing? Dimitri watched how the girl let the shadow lick her hand, or something of the likes, holding out her bare hand to the being. It had him wondering why her behavior had been cold toward him, someone who didn't intend on harming her, but was almost cuddling a being actually going by the name "heartless." The name only should make you want to stay away from it. Unless she's the same as that burned shrimp, Dimitri thought, not really being serious about it because he didn't think something like that was possible. Didn't make him less curious, though. His blue eyes followed the girl stand up to face him.
"I'm fine."
Didn't really look like it. But the older guy didn't feel like going on about it. If she said she was fine, she just was. One of the rules he did follow.
"So..what about you?" He asked, after having himself pushed off the wall to walk past her and sit on the stone steps that led to a lower platform. He knew he would get up again the time his ass got all numb, but didn't want to keep standing with the sun in his face. "You don't seem to make munny.. How have you managed to survive two years?" God knows how long Dimitri would last after a couple days of no food (icecream) or his cigarettes. At the thought of cigarettes, Dimitri's hand went down to his right pocket of his cargo to pat on its black fabric. Nothing but air..

"I've lost my memories.. I don't know who I am, where I'm from, or how I ended up here.. So yeah, you could say my mind here is a mess and am trying to find out more about myself.. to have things start making sense." This made Rae look up at him suddenly. Must be hard, knowing everything and nothing of yourself... The young girls pale lips parted slightly as a small sigh left them. So that's why he wanted to leave... to find out more about himself and other worlds. Maybe to find the world he'd come from? "Hmm..." unable to think of anything to say about, she let the matter just easily slip her mind. A bit cold maybe, but she didn't care. Rae didn't care much about anything really. As she let the heartless sniff her, the nobody felt the man's eyes on her. It was clear that he was very confused by her actions and the way she was treating the heartless, but it did not bother her. His confusion only made he persist. She touched the small creature's long, black antenna with one finger. The small shadow seemed to quiver slightly under her touch. As she stood, Rae heard him speak once more. "You don't seem to make munny.. How have you managed to survive two years?" The black-haired girl's stomach twisted. She didn't like discussing that. If she did, people regarded her as a criminal. But that wasn't entirely true... "I... never mind. You won't like it anyway."
