Passage [active/OPEN]

[beautifulrondo]

Character(s): Open
Content: The stakes are high and the only way to go is up. People have come to this floor looking for a door, but what will they find when they go through?
Setting: Clusterfuck Floor (the highest one so far)
Time: Nighttime
Warnings: Depends on who replies, I suppose. XD
Note: Multi-thread format. Form up whatever groups you'd like! Once the door is found, I'll edit a note in here letting people know what thread to have their characters run to if you all want in on the opening action. You're looking for a giant tower, as jumbled up and mismatchy as everything else in the world. There will be the usual Castle Oblivion door somewhere in there, and you are free to write the tower however you like.

The door opening sub-thread can be found here!
Please don't worry about posting order during this thread. We're trying to push through on into endgame, so if you have an opening for your character to post in/your character has something to say, have them go ahead and say it.

Cid would like to have said that the floor the door was supposed to be on wasn't in the least bit unsettling. Unfortunately, he couldn't - it was unsettling, and in ways that he couldn't quite put his finger on. Maybe it was simply the fact that the end was - presumably - in sight, or maybe it was something else. Either way, Cid couldn't shake the fact that something had him on edge.

Still, there was supposed to be a door out in the mess that was this place and that was at least worth enough of a consideration to get Cid to decide that he might as well see things through to a proper end. It was high time someone figured what was behind this place.

Getting split up from one of the few people she felt completely safe around seemed to be a rare thing indeed anymore, but still, it had come down to that for now. Besides, they would have been able to cover more ground this way, though she still found the place unsettling.

It took time before Rinoa spotted a figure in distance, though she couldn't really make out anything other then it was a person quite yet. She squinted her eyes as if it would somehow allow her to see the person in the distance more clearly, which obviously it didn't. Alright, looked like she was going to be approaching him, and if the person in the distance meant trouble? Well, she'd deal with that if it came to it. She much preferred to try to stay on good terms with whoever it was though.

Covering as much ground as possible wasn't a bad idea, as far as Cid was concerned. Actually keeping track of what ground had been covered and what ground hadn't? That was a damned sight harder, and not helped at all by what seemed to simply be the nature of the floor. The things he did to keep things running more or less as they should have been sometime (should have been Cloud exploring too, if he'd bothered to stick around).

Fortunately, Cid had no great interest in being anything other than his usual self around a near-stranger, and if that happened to also be somewhat on the gruffer end of things, that really wasn't anything he could do much about. Instead, he offered a terse sort of nod as she drew near. If she wanted to come have a chat he could deal with that much. It would be more interesting then just about anything else, after all.
