[The feed turns on to show a man with long blue hair, pointed ears, a scarred face, and... green eyes. Those who know this man already may find this last detail somewhat surprising.

The expression on his face can best be described as an unemotional poker face.]

I suppose I should introduce myself. My name is Isa and I recently arrived in the city.

[There's a pause as he considers what, if anything, else to say.]

Does anyone know the best place to find... decent clothing?

[The question is accompanied by Isa adjusting the coat he's wearing.]

[princessofheart]

I thought your name was Saix, or something.

[She's weary of you though, and it's just barely evident in her guarded expression. Even having spent time in a station in space with many people from many worlds, she still only ever got to know Axel and Roxas, as far as Organization members went. And the only time she remembers dealing with you involved kidnapping, and that is at the top of her 'shit never to happen again' list.
Feel free to notice the gratuitous scars, black collar around her neck, and longer hair if you care to, Isa.]

But to answer your question, there's a couple different districts where you can find shops. You'll probably wanna check Virgo first.

[afterthemoon]

It was. But not anymore. [Not that he really expects Kairi to be anything other than guarded around him]

[princessofheart]

Care to elaborate? Most people don't randomly just decide to change their names.

[afterthemoon]

"Isa" is my real name, Kairi.

The members of the Organization changed-- had their names changed when they joined.

[princessofheart]

Now that you mention it, I think I do remember Sora mentioning something like that about his and Roxas' names.

[Something about it being 'Sora' scrambled with an X or something.]

So, Isa. Why are you going back to your real name? Find a change of heart?

[She's trying to carefully lead the conversation to the topic of whether or not he'd be causing any trouble for her and her friends, while still trying to be at least a little polite.]

[afterthemoon]

I suppose you could say that. I... I have a heart now and it gave me much needed clarity.

[princessofheart]

You got your heart back?

[Color her surprised-- she thought that was only possible in certain circumstances, like hers and Soras.]

Clarity, huh? I suppose we won't be having the same issues as back home, then?

[afterthemoon]

Yes. I would have thought it was impossible, the way it happened.

No, Kairi, we won't, I can promise you that.

[princessofheart]

Good.

[She gives him a kind smile.]

Then I'm willing to give you a second chance, Isa. Everyone deserves one if they sincerely want to change, even if you did lock me up back then.

[afterthemoon]

[He seems genuinely surprised by this.]

T-th-thank you, Kairi. And I apologize for what I did, I know it doesn't change anything, but I am sorry.

[princessofheart]

[Don't get her wrong though, she will keyblade you to the face if you go turn around and do something evil. But as a Disney heroine, it is her job to be a forgiving sweetheart.]

It's alright, water under the bridge. Just don't go and ruin this second chance I'm offering, alright? I'm trusting you to your word.
