No Named AI (?) || Amnesia!AU

          The drips and beeps were all he could hear now, as the nurse removed the FMD from over his eyes. She couldn't help but feel pity for the young man, having been in here for a year and still without his memories. After he could only recall a game, they gave him the system and the controller, and it later turned into him constantly within that world.

          He was showing some signs of life, but the child could not recall his own name, his own face, nothing. It was a brutal accident that robbed him of his memories, a blow to the head that left him unconscious. Yet, here was he, the heart monitor beeped in approval that the child was alive.

          "Doctor, should we contact someone the patient knows from that world? Maybe this can be of some use to us, and get him into recovery..." the nurse asked as she stared at the man with the glasses, who wrote some note with a hum of approval.

           A click of his pen came first before he answered, "We will need CCCorp's approval before doing so. I will call them and explain the situation. Has he gained any improvement?"

           The woman shook her head, "No. He mentions Aura when he is offline, but the name Balmung has also left as well. I am still wondering what this could all mean Doctor."

           "Let's call and explain the situation," the doctor ordered, as they both leaved the sleeping man alone, the numbers were called to the very company itself.

            "I request information for one of my patients in my care. An amnesiac. We would like contact information to Balmung."

Finality.

Click. Click. Scroll. Click.

One more afternoon of browsing the forums -- a daily activity rather than a chore, yet a habit more than a daily activity. Masato read on with an unchanging expression, seldom replying to the few threads that had piqued his interest.

The rumor forums however, was a place of constant surprise. 

The Red Sands

Oh? Of course the treasure hunter wouldn't pass up at least glancing at something surprisingly vague. His lips pursed faintly, chestnut eyes peeling away from the computer screen to spot one of the trio of felines rubbing against his leg, effectively leaving a splatter of dark grey underfur against his work pants. ... Lovely. Idly, he rubbed the feline's back, earning a gentle purr in response, thus beginning his multitasking.

The Red Sands | Anonymous

I was wandering around the Net Slum the other day, and when I interacted with one of the NPCs there, my visor wigged out or something like that and I managed to see through the building or something! It's like a red desert with this constant sandstorm! Did CC Corp purposely add this in or something? It seems a bit useless since no one can see it or anything like that. What's really weird is that the ground looked like it was moving! Then again.. I could have been tripping out a bit, too. After I stopped talking, it was like nothing happened. I don't get it! I could have sworn I saw some bits of stuff out on the horizon or whatever..

He blinked, his hand trailing away from the raven-colored feline as she went to make herself comfortable on his windowsill. Sure, visual glitches were essentially normal in the game, still, but the fact it was still technically accessible has Masato both worried and intrigued. But..

Wait a moment..

Bits of stuff? He eyed the loose leaf of paper by his side, a small record of what fragments of Corbenik had corresponded to which behavioral change. He had all of the components that made up his Avatar, but he was missing.. missing what?

Ah, a solid form for it to manifest in.

The pieces were worth investigating, for Azure Kite had not notified him of any findings of the rest of the final phase, which had been a bit alarming in it's own right. The both of them could technically access this portion of the Sea of Data if the Net Slum Tartarga could travel freely along between server hopping, right? The worst that could happen would be Azure Kite having to open up an Outer Dungeon for the safest transfer, although that may be the protocol action anyway..

It was worth a try anyway. Afterall, the enigma that was Ovan had been able to find every treasure so far, no? There was a small smile of amusement at the thought. This adventure was certainly worth a shot.

With that determination in mind, Masato pulled up a new mail to send to the AI.

[To: Azure Kite

Sender: Ovan

Subject: Red Sands

> I have a suspicion that we may have a lead on where to find Corbenik's final piece(s). There is a thread in the rumor boards that I wish for you to interpret that explains the origins of why I'm notifying you as of.

> Assuming that Tartarga is still navigating the Sea of Data where this user spotted oddities, I believe we may be able to navigate these sands ourselves and inspect the "pieces" this person has found.

> I will be waiting in the Net Slum.]

『♚』" Your data readings are quite... unique... "

[balmung-of-the-azure-sky]

ai-ofblueflames

     Oh… He wanted to learn about this language some more? That was fine with Azure Kite, as he laid on the bed with the covers over his form. The blue flames would flash before revealing the demon, that would condense his form into a will-o-wisp, that would drift towards the mountains.

          Under normal circumstances, there would be no way he would step on there. But… Things were different as he would materialize before the angel friend.

"I am here. I was not going to try to bring my host. It would take too long."

He slowly landed, forgetting about his balance in how tired the angel was, and ended up falling flat on his face. Rubbing his head slightly, he brought his wings back in as a thickly feathered tail swung behind. 

"That is alright. I chose not to change myself, it is much more comfortable this way."

Balmung shook himself for a moment in the rather cold night breeze, and sighed. "Humans have such a complex system of writing," he mused aloud, "I can barely spell their words correctly."

What a New World || {Real!World Open}

       The engineer was typing away once more, that was the first sound that the AI registered, waking up in the platform he created for him. He was humming some tune that didn't match. Why was he in this world again? He left it to go home...

       But, the AI was just so curious, and he got all his work done. Even notified Azure Balmung and Azure Orca and even Aura that he wanted to explore the Outer Dungeons, which was about right, all on his own. It was met with some problems, but he was perfectly fine. And came right to the warp and moved the body about.

       "Hey there Kaito," the engineer waved with the biggest of grins, offering his hand to lift him up from the table, "Fixed more of that speech problem, so try it out okay?"

        He hesitated, but managed to rasp, "It... Sounds better."

        The man clucked his tongue, "Still mechanical... Gotta get to working once again," the man placed a wallet in his hand and chimed, "You're gonna need that, it's called a wallet. It has your information, as well some money. You can go out, just come back before it gets dark okay?"

        Azu-...No. Kaito nodded his head, placing the wallet in a pocket and bowed. The man was nice, and he was no threat to [The World], hence why he was alright with this problem. Maybe, he can go see if he can find someone he knows within [The World]! That would be new and exciting, and he can see what this place is all about.

        So, with the bow gifted, and a quick glance at the battery, he sped off without a clear sense of direction, looking at all the pretty buildings and all the stores, already settling on finding something cool and new. It ended up being a trek into the busy part, where all sorts of people would be there, all walking about and focused on going somewhere.

        "Bigger than the Root Towns..." the AI smiled and mused to himself.

⋨ ♜ ⋩ ♦—; 

He's had quite the stressful day today. So quite sluggishly, Kite walked up behind Azure and hugged him, resting his chin on his head. 

[amberenigma]

ai-ofblueflames:

   The AI was within the Outer Dungeon located at Breg Epona, fixing the last of the rifts into the coding. The last thing he wanted to deal with is a Data Bug. The original data would be not happy if he had to Data Drain more people because they were infected.

               It was then that the AI found the fragment, and when it should pop up. And when it was purchased, the Azure Knight awaited for the ShortMail.

                Oh, look. There it is. And he obtained the fragment.

                {[1 W4$ u$1NG The R3@D1n9 pHR0m teh L4St pHR@9men+, 1 W45 @bLE +O lOc@tE AN 48n0Rm4l1+y WiTH1N +He r3CeN+ L0ADiN9. i NEeD3d +0 S+Udy 1+ bephoR3 5ENdiNG j00 tH3 1nFOrm@t1oN.]}

Ovan read the message with a curious look, but understood the jist of what the AI told him. Looking at the item again, he wasn't surprised at it's abnormality, however, his PC data was essentially normal.. so the data itself must have been independent anyways.

Of course, he would have to give the item over for Kite to do anything with it, but.. he must have been somewhere at least..

> I see. I'm still by the Item Shop if you wish to retrieve it.

Whenever Azure Kite and Kite hug via 「 The World  」, Kaito actually hugs his monitor , or sometimes a pillow as if actually hugging Azure in the real world. The first few times he knocks over a few things , but now that they've hugged so much , Kaito has gotten the real hang of it !

Demons, Angels, and Ouiji Boards

ai-ofblueflames

              Upon learning of the Ouija Board and what it could do a day prior, the demon did leave his midday class and got himself one. Of course, it was hidden away in his room. But, as these two were in a party, he found himself in a mere werewolf costume, no gloves, but the ears were there and the tattered garments, and the fluffy tail.

               But, he should’ve known Balmung would freak out. Damn.

              “Killjoy,” man, and he was looking forward to testing that item out. Of course, the demon was perfectly fine with using a board and testing the use of it. And how successful it was.

               “It shouldn’t be a problem if I do it alone. All else fails, I’ll kill the threat if it gets out of hand. We aren’t like these humans anyways, so it really shouldn’t be a problem.”

He huffed rather loudly and put his hands on his hips; humans did this when they were upset, correct? Of everything this race could be meddling with, it had to be the souls of the departed. They just wished to rest! If he could, he would end this practice altogether, but it appeared to be a pastime to some.

"I understand that," he said, shaking his head, "but you do know know of the wrathful spirits that may come of this? Humans in particular make extremely hostile phantoms, and some demons are not what I would prefer you to encounter on your own..."

He'd never admit it, but a part of him was scared for Kaito's decision. Sure, they happened to be a demon of possibly the highest caliber, but that didn't mean he couldn't die. The angel could be fearing for his friend in their human self, but he didn't want the demon to stop existing either.

"... I will go with you in that case."

[luridpretense]

((ai-ofblueflames)) A blue flame signaled his arrival, floating right above the former Emperor, his visible eye showed naught but curiosity as he pat the head. Of course, it wasn't the most gentle of pats, but it surely was restrained enough to not harm the character.

The corner of Endrance’s lips twitched as the orb approached him.  He knew full well who his visitor was, though it was unusual that he was the one approached in their encounters.  He lowered his hand from the rail, turning away from the eternal sunset and towards the phantom.  He’d expected words, but instead, a hand was outstretched to touch– the blade brandier responded with a choking sound of shock, questioning, resignation.  After all, he’d been guilty of the same thing on different occasions.. he simply didn’t expect it in return.

[scionoflorelei-a]

((Apologies to all I am RPing with at current... I had to go babysit my brother, and on top of it, I got a really nasty case of indigestion and it wasn't cause of Haribo Sugarless Gummi Bears.

...Ugh, I could barely move with that as it is, those damn things would have been a hell of a lot worse.

....Plus I've been addicted (again) to FFXIV.

If anyone's wondering, I have a lv50 Bard on Ultros and a lv37 White Mage on Balmung.

....Trying to let my stomach settle more before I play anything though.))

Blue Flames, White Wings || [Of Angels and Demons AU]

          "AHH!!!!! PLEASE! DON'T HURT ME!!!!"

         The man was running down the streets of the metropolis known simply as the Human World, rushing down the darkened alleyways in a mad panic. His eyes would dart behind him every now and then, those black and red orbs that showed the parasite of AIDA: a demon that was of his realm.

          One in which his creator asked they removed for the sake of the Humans, for they were the threat that tipped away the balance between the Aether and Neither Realms.

          Blue flames blocked his exit from the alley, as the man screamed, falling on his rear and scooting away. More flames appeared yet again, blocking the other side, encircling the prey. Blue revealed the patchwork demon, created of azure flames, his twin blades in hand as he floated to the earth, but never touching it.

          "N-No...! NO! GET AWAY! PLEASE! SPARE ME!!!"

         A low rasp drawled upon the lips of the demon, slicing the throat of the parasite, burning the human host alive into nothing but ashes. The "reformatting" was in progress, which would remove the memory of AIDA from the body's system, repairing them completely from the dangerous exposure. It was only a minute later, that the unconscious body of an middle aged man rested on the ground, asleep.

        The fire demon turned about, leaving nothing but the remnant of ashes to be blown away by the next breeze. He was done here... And the knight of the Queen and his Creator, Aura, Azure Kite would fade. The host he had obtained was not nearly a correct choice, as he needed to sleep for many days until he could be out once again.

        I will go back then... the demon became nothing more but a single ball of condensed blue fire, as it went into the body of an comatose teenage, alone in an single room apartment. The soul of the child was dead, killed by the AIDA. He used it as his vessel, to watch and wait for the AIDA to appear so he could kill them...

       ...The next day dawned, and the day's light filtered through the sky, the possessed teen rose from his blankets and gave a wistful smile, before dressing himself for school. Possessing humans did have an upside: he could look at the sun's light and not have his form burn back into the orb of fire... And it's downside is the human's former life. A student at an local school... His parents gave him this apartment as a way of making him concentrate on school itself. Azure Kite didn't care for it, but it was part of his job: to blend in. And so, he exited the apartment with an apple in hand, locking it using his fire and walking to school.

       Of course, he smirked at the coned off area that held the scorch marks from his scuffle with AIDA, Humans... They can't understand the severity of their situation.

       But, who said things were to become easier for the Knight? For he would end up bumping into someone with ebony locks, apple dropped and forgotten as he asked simply with the slight rasp in his voice:

       "Are you okay?"

"Easy, it would tell the demons to leave you alone when you are a human," saying the demon was possessive was an understatement, "As for the angels, I wasn’t thinking about them when I made the collar. Some humans wear them as an accessory, but I have seen pets wear them to place rope-like objects on them so they don’t run away. They also have a form of identification on them, but I do not know why."

"Are you sure..."

He pulled at it, taking in the metal clasps and holes adorning it. Balmung admitted freely he felt it matched his attire, but something felt off about this. It was common to see animals wearing these, yet there were very few humans with them around their necks... Perhaps that had something to do with this sudden act.

"Are you likening me to a human companion?"
