Hey guys, I know some of you have been waiting a while, and I have about half of the requests done, so sit tight, I haven't forgotten. I do apologize for all of the time taken.

The sickness had told her. It was . . . irking, but she took a breath and found that, perhaps, if she waited long enough, everyone would switch back to normal. There was no point in getting angry over the change. She wondered, though, was there a certain something that they had to do in order to return to normal? Her mind jumped back to that cold auditorium and the feel of cheap wood against her hands. Surely a quest of that stature would not have to be completed again. Returning from the bathroom, Kallisti looked at the sleeping figure of her body and contemplated what to do for the day. It would be wisest to keep to her room, she knew this much, but she couldn't help but feel slightly stir crazy. Would Cristina truly mind her leaving for just a little while? Kallisti didn't know, but she didn't like to be able to see her own body, if it wasn't in a mirror . . . She sighed. Cristina had been up before her, but Kallisti hadn't noticed until she had returned from the bathroom. She couldn't leave now without Cristina knowing, not that she would try and hide it, but . . . She did need to leave this room for a little while. Perhaps she should invite Cristina? Where would they go? She had an aching feeling to see Harley, and she disliked it a great deal. Still . . . That overwhelming feeling to get out, to check on him and others, it was . . . annoying, but persevering. " Good morning, Cristina. " she typed into the device, sitting on her bed. She saw that the blanket covered her body's legs and she felt a pang of embarrassment, shame, and guild. For Cristina to land in a body so damaged . . . granted, it wasn't Kallisti's fault, she couldn't have prevented Cristina occupying her, but many of the markings could have been avoided, as well as the pains that came to her every now and then, " I hope you are well. " she said, " I was thinking that we could do something today. I feel the need to breath fresh air. " Before Cristina could give an answer, there was a knock on the door and Kallisti looked at her roommate, slightly expectant, since she was unable to speak.

Not to find her, but just to leave the stale air of the room behind him. She wasn't completely helpless, and with her being in a different body, there was no chance of any sort of authorities finding her and taking her. It was Zoey in her body that had to worry about that. Until they switched back, that is. If they ever did, that is, again. He had returned to Tyler's room on the other side of the campus to retrieve a fresh set of clothing after showering and then sat in the room for a little while. This room, he didn't like. Its occupant, he didn't like. He needed to see Kallisti, today. Alli hadn't text him back, he assumed she was mad at him. She would come around? He guessed . . . Why was she mad at him? He didn't know. He wished she would text him back, though. Sigh . . . After sitting in the room for a little while, or until he couldn't stand it, really, he left to return to the girls' building. Kallisti's room was around there somewhere around here . . . After walking around for a good period of time, he came to the familiar door that was Kallisti's and gave a knock, waiting for it to be answered.

Skype told me it was your birthday. I thought about saying happy birthday there. But I'm an awkward penguin. Happy birthday, Libre.
Hi, yeah, can we just take a moment to appreciate the beauty of this comic's art, because seriously, this stuff is fantastic. The story isn't that far along ( I'm actually reading the updates right now ), but things are going to get serious soon. A small cast of interesting characters has already been introduced, and with the character page having many silhouettes on it, I can tell there are going to be more colorful characters and demons and other things introduced soon. I really like the concept of the shapes in the eyes, such as Ava and the circles, or Maggie an the triangles. The characters are all so beautifully designed; take Wrathia, for example: she's got the general idea of what you might picture a demon to look like, but there's something different about her, perhaps her story? that makes her different. I, too, was introduced to Ava's Demon by Ash, and I'm really glad to read it. It's fantastic and I seriously recommend.
I didn't send in a list, but I would be pleased to see some of the cast of Final Fantasy XIII in a future Kingdom Hearts installment, especially Fang or Lightning.

She hoped that there was no offense taken in the question, for Kallisti was truly curious. Then again, she had first-hand experience of the saying "curiosity killed the cat" . . . " Honestly . . . " the girl began, " it's nice to be able to speak again, but . . . " She seemed hesitant to say was was truly on her mind, or perhaps she was merely having trouble finding all of the right words, " It doesn't feel right. This isn't my own voice. I'm not supposed to be able to speak again. I'm cheating the system right now and I don't like it. " Kallisti raised her eyebrows, this was a surprising and very mature way to look at the situation, " I've basically stolen your voice and I know how it feels to have your voice stolen . . . " Cristina trailed off and Kallisti felt that there was a story to be told behind those last few words. There had been quite a bit of prodding already, Kallisti felt, and so she would ask no more of the personal subject. After all, she wasn't fond of personal questions, either. " Anyways, I don't think I'll ever truly enjoy speaking unless it's with my own voice. " It was a good answer, and Kallisti gained some perspective and respect for Cristina. After thinking for a few minutes, she found herself yawning, where normally, sound would come out, none didn't. She wondered how long the body-switch was going to last. Perhaps if they slept, it would all be normal once more? She was unsure . . . " I am becoming tired. " the device stated in its mechanical voice, in place of Kallisti, " We should sleep and see what the morning brings. " She hadn't changed from the set of pajamas that she woke up in, and so she left the device on the night stand and slid under the covers, waving at Cristina with a " Good night. " before laying down and closing her eyes. Tomorrow, perhaps things would be normal.

Heidi sat next to Harley on the bed and Harley felt that this was pretty strange. There was just . . . eh, he didn't know . . . something about he being in this body of Tyler's and Heidi being in Zoey's body that mad it all . . . strange. " I'll sleep here, too. " she told him, and snuggled into the bed. It didn't feel quite right sleeping in the same bed as Heidi as it would be on a normal day, but he shrugged it off and removed the jacket he had been wearing and took off his shoes. Tomorrow, they'd probably still be stuck in these bodies. Who knew. " Good night, Heidi. " he said softly, laying on his back. Harley closed his eyes that weren't his and drifted off. This was still pretty weird . . .
K A L L I S T I xQU I N T U S xLE I N{ TUMBLR • ACQUAINTANCES • MOST RECENT • WEARING }{ OOC : SORRY, COOKIIE! } • { DAY : 21 - 3/3 }{ YOU • ME • NAMES • LINKS • DISDAIN } • { MOOD : THOUGHTFUL } xxxxxxxxxx " O - oh, of course! " Cristina replied, perhaps not expecting the question. She detached it from its charger and handed it to Kallisti. It looked simple enough to operate, much like a phone. " Operating it is pretty straight forward, " Cristina explained to her as she fiddled with it, " Just type whatever you want to say and hit enter. " Kallisti typed a few words, just as instructed, and then hit the enter button. " Is this working? " the device buzzed in her hands, and she nearly dropped it, being slightly started. At her silliness, she opened her mouth to laugh, but then remember that she couldn't, and bit her lip. How would it be when - if - they were returned to their original bodies? How would Cristina come to feel? Surely not resentful of no longer having a voice . . . Kallisti wondered how long it had been since she had a normal voice of her own to speak with. Was she enjoying this? Kallisti did not mind being mute, she hardly spoke anyway, still . . . She peered up at her roommate, at her own face, and decided to ask. What did she have to lose, in any matter? " Take no offense, " the device began to monotone, " but how is it having a voice once more? " H A R L E Y xJ A Y xJ A C K S O N[ TUMBLR • OBSERVATION SUBJECTS • LATEST ][ OOC : 100 DAYS SLEEP OVER, WOO! ] • [ DAY : 21 - 3/3 ][ YOU • ME • NAMES • LINKS • HATRED ] • [ MOOD : TIRED ] xxxxxxxxxx " Yeah, " Zoey-Heidi answered, and Harley let a breath out, " I think Heidi is feeling better now, at least. " He hoped that she was, and with this thought, he looked over at her. For reassurance, she nodded at him and he let out another breath. Zoey had ended up suggesting that they all stick together, but Harley had a problem or two with that; for one, he hadn't seen Kallisti or Allison. Allison hadn't text him back from earlier and he could only hope she was okay, lest he should go find her . . . He caught Heidi rubbing at her arms after Zoey's suggestion and he sighed. If they were going to be together tonight, this was going to be a rather packed room. Did Heidi really want that? She didn't seem to do well around crowds, he noticed that much from his experience at the springs. " I - I'll stay. " she said, trying to sound confident in her choice. It felt odd how Harley didn't seem to tower over her any more, " Harley, are you staying, too? " she asked him with a hopefulness in her tone. Harley contemplated it. It was as easy as saying yes because he wanted to be here with Heidi, to protect her, if nothing else, but his desire to check on Alli and Kallisti was hardly bearable. Mentally, he clicked his tongue, and then turned to her, " Yeah, I'm staying. " he replied with a smile, " Don't worry. " He hadn't realized that Tyler and the she/he whose name was apparently Casey - or not, had come into the room. " Also staying here for the night would be good for me, if you don't mind me jumping in on that idea. " He looked at Casey with a frown; he had never met this person, and attractive as they might be, Harley didn't trust him, but didn't voice his thoughts on the statement. He picked his phone from his pocket and typed up a message to Kallisti, telling her where he was and that he hoped she was alright. She'd probably end up replying with some sort of undertoned snide remark, but he didn't care if she thought he truly didn't care about her, " Alright, well, " he began, moving towards the bed where Heidi had been originally sleeping, " looks like we've got a little slumber party on our hands. Only two people to a bed, now, or just one. " Then he did something very immature, " I claim this bed, " he told them with a fox-like smile on his face, " And the only person that is free to sleep with me if she so desires is Heidi. Zoey, I assume you're going to take the other bed, so you're free to . . . do whatever you want, I guess? I don't want any shenanigans tonight, please, " his tone became slightly dangerous and commanding, " If you're going to go anywhere, and you've swapped bodies with someone in this room, please, for the love of whatever higher deity you believe in, leave a note. "
Avatar: 6/10 - It's blurry, a little distorted, and I dislike Shiki and am not too fond of the colors. Signature: 6.8/10 - Much more clear than the avatar, but still don't like Shiki. The colors are better in this one, and the render is crisp and has a good placement.
