Nobodies and Heartless!
Everyone gets a phone when they become a Nobody, and the phone lists every Nobody's chosen name and number.
There's also a video that opens with:
That has a rainbow backdrop.
It instructs them on eating, sleeping, and Keyblade basics. It's very detailed, with this song looping in the background.
Basically, it's Painfully 80s and looks super grainy (but it's probably obvious that it's all of this On Purpose). Worse, though, it's over 30 minutes long. Even the narrator (who they might later find sounds exactly like Yuri Hyuga) seems incredibly bored.

(frozen comment) Guidelines:
-Don't be afraid to make toplevels (under the appropriate header)!
-Keep GY talk in the Keyblade Graveyard - no spoilers to the living side, unless you have permission on a specific thing
-Feel free to DM or ping me (Alex) in GY plotting channel for any exploration stuff
You are allowed to tag into things on the living side!
Just keep in mind that your character currently has no memories of the time before their death. Interpretations for what the means is all up to you, but please do try to stick to their core personality traits as much as possible.
If anything happens where you're at risk of spoiling something from the GY side, feel free to ask someone here to help run interference.

WEEK 1
This way...
[ In spite of whichever path each of them has taken (or not taken), they will find themselves on a small island.
Really, there isn't much to see... because it's dark and cloudy and rainy. Fortunately, they're wearing hooded jackets - Goro in white, Sephiroth in a dark gray.
Unfortunately, they can't recognize who's standing in front of them. They feel a sense of... peace, however.
It may take them... some effort to remember how to speak, but the person seems patient as they wait. ]
no subject
It takes him a few minutes to grasp language, but his voice is steady once he finds it.]
What is happening?
no subject
Who...? Are you?
[ Who is anyone here, tbh, but... ]
no subject
[Hmmm. Peace or no peace, he doesn't think he's happy about that.]
no subject
[ He offers each of them a sad smile. ]
But, you can each pick your own names while you're here. Take your time with deciding.
Furthermore, while I understand we're strangers, right now, please try to find it in yourselves to trust in me. I'll answer all of the questions you have, and then we can go have something to eat - my treat.
Does that sound all right with you two?
no subject
But what other choice does he really have? He nods slowly.]
What 'cases'? What happened to us?
no subject
You each lost a part of what makes you... "you" - something that holds your memories.
[ There's a pause as he lets that sink in... ]
It happened as a result of how each of you died. [ holding a blink again ] You've each been given a second chance.
[ And the smile he gives Goro is sad. ]
For you to earn you memories and your life back, Goro Akechi, you must reach out to those who loved you. You must help enforce their hope.
[ To Sephiroth, his expression is a bit more... stern. ]
You, however, must atone for the crimes you committed in your former life, Sephiroth Valentine. You must start by working to earn the forgiveness of those named Akira Kurusu and Yusuke Kitagawa. After you manage that, I will approach you with the next task.
[ There's a grim smile on his lips now. ]
It will be up to you to learn what it is that you did.
[ After that, he bows his head. ]
And I promise... after you've both managed to complete your tasks, and everything is returned to the way it should be, I will return the both of you to life. You will be able to return to your normal lives... and, in most cases, the people you care about.
WEEK 2
Mira death reaction...
So far, there's been no sign of Mira anywhere...
He's going to be hunting down Sephiroth at some point to gently tug his sleeve. ]
Do you think... she simply died, instead of becoming like us...?
[ He sounds so... disheartened, honestly. ]
no subject
But she may just need more time to become like us. Or she may not even have died at all, everything about this seems very nebulous and complicated.
[Sephiroth sounds a little bit put out about that last part, really. He'd prefer things to be more straightforward.]
no subject
Maybe...
[ A quiet 'heh' slips out. ]
I hope it's that last one.
Welcome . . . (note her official path somewhere in introspect)
There isn't much to see, but it's definitely colorful! There's a warmth and brightness all around her, in spite of whatever might be going on within her mind and chest. Something confusing and unfamiliar is there, and it's difficult to even register it as the former. It simply... is?
While she can't recognize who's standing in front of her, each presence brings some kind of peace - as though, thanks to them, some actual answers might finally be given.
It may take some effort for her to remember how to speak, but each of them seems patient enough. ]
no subject
She sees the person and the warmth and brightness just feels wrong, and just looks at him with a wondering expression in her eyes.
The peace just makes her feelings waver.
She can't recognize them and doesn't say anything but her expression speaks measures more than any words that she could possibly come up with.
Too many questions in her head. ]
no subject
You're a being like us. A Nobody. The person you were before died, and you've lost the part of you that remembers that life.
no subject
[ Her eyes watch him rather carefully, as if trying to find meaning behind those words. While it's true that she doesn't remember anything at all, her tone is rather dry. ]
Where's the proof? That 'I' died, and that 'I' am a Nobody, like you say I am?
[ That she's what he says she is? And more importantly, what exactly, is a 'Nobody' to begin with? She doubts that he's talking about them in the same way others -- others? She's never met anyone prior to now -- have, most likely. ]
no subject
In this place, when somebody dies... they're broken into three parts - physical, emotional, and spiritual. We won't be able to restore anyone until those pieces are reunited...
[ A pause... He holds up a tablet that shows a diagram - it highlights the body in a yellow line, the head in a blue line, and the heart in red line. ]
You all are the physical parts [ points to yellow line ], your emotions [ points to blue line ] are being held in a safe place, and the spirits [ red line ] are missing.
I can show you to the housing, where there's still enough food and clothes for everyone.
[ He's holding a phone out to her, and there's the picture of a map pulled up. It's very detailed. ]
There's a room there [ pointing to a house ], and you're welcome to take as long as you need to read and watch the videos. But I do encourage you to go out and meet everyone.
[ He'll be handing her the phone with a smile. ]
no subject
[ She still has her doubts, naturally, although she is listening rather carefully to every word he says, although she isn't going to hang onto it like a lifeline -- no, she'll use this information to see if the others she meets has anything contradictory to say and go from there. ]
. . .Alright. And the videos are on this phone?
[ She assumes, anyway. Even without memories, she still has knowledge. ]
no subject
They're there for you to watch as many times as you like.
no subject
[ Who are you, mysterious guy. ]
no subject
no subject
[ A name doesn't mean much to someone who's nameless - it doesn't tell her enough.
She needs more information. What is this guy, exactly? ]
no subject
That recently became a bigger question than you know.
no subject
looks at Eraqus
looks back at him
she is not on a horse, but she does crease her brows in slight concern ]
What do you mean?
no subject
[ He smiles and just... SUDDENLY CORRIDORS OUT OF THERE. ]
WEEK 3
Wednesday
The place where the profiles are found...
Have any of you wondered about the glyph?
[ If they try to text back, they just get a message saying that the recipient is unavailable. ]
