It's far too cold outside for a trip to the library, but I've finished all the books in my apartment. Who knows a good story, urban legend, or rumour? I'd love to hear something new, anything really.

[ A guy has to make do until he can get his hand on some fresh literature. ]

It's a little late in the year for ghost stories, although November is traditionally the month of the dead so I'll listen nonetheless.

Once upon a time, a bunch of stupid humans decimated the wildlife, ravaged the land, and devastated the forests until one day, the planet had enough and turned them all into trees.

The End.

I could tell you a story a friend of mine wrote...

[hopefully before her brother spots this and manages to preempt her.]

[greyerrant]

I know a good tale, or so I've been told.

Would a legend do? I don't believe I know any stories, but I have studied mythology since I was a child.

O-oh, I don't like ghost stories, they're rather frightening. But I do know a couple of spooky fairy tales, actually! I used to read them to my sister, she really liked hearing them when she was younger.

I'm afraid all the ghost stories I could tell you are the ones that I've dealt with, and a lot of them are kind of boring.

[spaztastic]

Would an urban legend from back home count?

[deathboss]

Can we NOT talk about rumors?

[The prompt for a story reminds him of something, so fumbling with the technology for a good minute or two finally gives him some way to reply, even if he starts of a little slow.]

Well... uh.

...There was a great big world. All light and nice. The people were happy.

Except they started to fight. The fighting allowed the darkness into the world, and everything was destroyed.

[Is this lame? It sounds sort of boring; Roxas isn't quite sure he's telling it right.]

[But that's easy enough to do when you have no idea where the stories coming from.]

Except for the lights in children. And.. because of those lights, we have the worlds we know today. Distant and far apart.

[Yep. Lame.]

_{[It's a girl's voice talking, but it's almost painfully raspy to hear - like sand-laden air through old pipes, or something like that. It edges just above being a hiss.]}

A local's legend sounds best when you're living in the setting. I have a couple stories that aren't so boring out of their homes, though, if you're keen for cannibals and things. I'll trade them if you'll tell me some back.
