Do we have enough crazy people? [Complete]

Character(s): Ayame Sohma, whoever?
Content: Ayame enters Paixao! But not before terrifying the poor gatekeeper. ):
Setting: Joutenheim Gate and the surrounding area.
Time: Week 2, early evening.
Warnings: Ayame's crackers.


This was peculiar. Honke was no where in sight, and Hatori seemed to have disappeared.

...Maybe because he was staring into the sky...?

"Torisa~n," Ayame called as he finally looked down, eyebrows arching as he watched the line a few feet away from him. Weird... Maybe Hatori was amongst the people? He began to bounce cheerfully down the line, a hand cupped behind his ear as he called out for his friend. "Torisan!" No answer. "Tori~sa~n~" ...No answer. Bouncebounce. "TO~RISAAAAAAAAAN~"

As he approached the beginning of the line, he realized Hatori was no where around-- no where around here, anyway, and he pouted childishly in dismay. This was peculiar. Where could he have gone off to? Maybe they'd somehow gotten separated and Ayame had wound up here...? ...In this place that didn't resemble much of anything he knew of in his little corner of Japan.

Especially that gate.

What was with that gate? Big ... ugly giants. What had the architecturists been thinking when they made that? Um, ew.

"Excuse me!" He said as he called out to the man at the gate, then abruptly shut his mouth and glanced over to the side at a few shinies. Pamphlets! Yes, this would be a huge help in determining what this place was and how to get back into familiar territory. After snatching a few dozen for himself and looking things over, he strolled back up to the gate and turned his attention to who he had just decided to call the "Gatekeeper." "Excuse me! Tell me how to get back to Japan from this--" He glanced over one of the many pamphlets. "--Pie Show."

The man looked at him, obviously quite confused. It did not register. That long silver hair, those large, gorgeous, shining gold eyes, that red dress, those soft features and flawless skin ... That manly voice?! DID. NOT. COMPUTE. Where was the sweet, sugary voice that was so obviously supposed to go with the angelic, if flat-chested and extremely weird (honestly, who looked like that?), female standing before him? His right eye twitched and he just barely managed to force a smile, though he looked more frightened than anything. "May I have you name, um ... m-ma'am?"

Ayame gave a gentle shake to his head, rustling his silver hair in a most Obligatory-Hunky-Hero-Ala-Romance-Novel way, promptly deciding the poor boy had been confused by his undeniable, otherworldly beauty and amazingly smooth, silky hair. "OHOHOHO! Sohma, Ayame! Yes!" He chimed excitedly, practically beaming with pride, "I know my hair is gorgeous! Now, let me tell you about the time I--"

"Thank you, sir!" He interrupted as he held a metal device out to him. He still looked terrified. Mortified, even. "You may take this and enter Paixao now."

"--Conquered a small country simply by showing up! The natives were so impressed with my amazing beauty they automatically dropped to their knees and began to kiss my feet the moment they laid eyes on me!" By now, he'd managed to drop all the pamphlets to the ground, thanks to his gesticulations, and was talking so fast-pased and with such enthusiasm that the Gatekeeper had given up trying to follow along and simply stared in disbelief, the device still held out in mid-air. "And I told them 'Fear not, my loyal subjects! I shall rule over this land with an iron fist and grace so immense people abroad will speak of me, your leader, as though I am a GODDESS who decided to grace all of mankind by showering the people of Earth in her love, beauty, and power!'"

The Gatekeeper could take no more and abruptly shoved the device in Ayame's open palm, calling shakily for the next person as the silver haired nut continued on his long-winded speech and went on to say something about magic and being betrothed to the prince of a neighboring planet.

"And, finally, I said to her-- Oh! What's this?!" Ayame looked down at the device and happily bounced through the gate, his previous endeavors at conversing with the confused Gatekeeper completely forgotten. Once inside the city, he called for Hatori once more-- Still, no answer, but Ayame was determined. After all, Hatori had to be worried after such a sudden separation! And as much as he tried to keep it hidden, Ayame was quite worried as well. He had no clue just where he was, exactly, or how he'd managed to get here-- let alone how to find his way back. But he had to remain optimistic; getting stressed out would do no good at all, and would lead to more problems. ...There had to be a way to contact Torisan.

He would call Hatori. Yes, call Hatori and find out what had happened, then reunite with him. Brilliant plan!

He glanced up from the device and quietly scanned his surroundings, largely uninterested, though he had to admit he was at least partially intrigued. However, he had no time for investigating any of the more interesting things right now, not did he had any more time for fun and games. It was time to get serious.

With a sigh, he began to wander aimlessly around in search of a pay phone or other means of communication with the outside world, though something in him told him he wasn't going to get very far.

It was just another day waiting by the gate. Or it had been until a commotion drew his attention.

Tidus looked up from his position on a nearby bench to try to see what was happening. Someone was making an awful lot of noise, and people were scurrying away from its source. Though the voice didn’t seem remotely familiar, and everyone was going away from it, Tidus got up and started towards it.

The voice’s owner, when Tidus found him, was enough to make him stop and stare. He could swear the body was female (the long, silvery hair pretty much gave it away), but the voice (which periodically yelled for a hatori, whatever that was) was decidedly male. It made no sense at all. Tidus tried to figure it out, but it was beyond his scope. Either way, the new arrival was not like the town citizens. He was an outsider, much like Tidus himself. Tidus remembered when he entered the city. If it hadn’t been for Uchiha, he would have run around like this person, yelling “Yuna” instead of “hatori.”

So Tidus took a gamble and decided to approach this person. “Hey,” he said. “You must be new here. You look kinda lost. Need any help?” He put on his best friendly smile.

Tidus couldn’t help but snicker a little. Whoever this guy was, he was great. With the way he talked and moved his arms around and posed, it was enough to make anyone crack up. Tidus had to run his hand over his mouth a few times so he wouldn’t burst out laughing. Sense of beauty and fashion aside, if this fellow was really a prince (as unlikely as that seemed), Tidus shouldn’t laugh in his face.

“Ah, see, here’s the thing. I’ve spent some time in this city already, and not once have I heard of phone.” Tidus had no idea what a phone was anyway. They didn’t have them back in Spira. “If you want to contact someone, you have to write them a little message using that thing you’re waving around. And if they’re in the city, they’ll reply.”

As for the comment on being a bit pretty? Tidus was amused enough that he decided to play into it. “Me? Pretty enough to be your escort?” He pretended to do a hair flip. “You make me blush, sir,” he said playfully. “Anyway, my name is Tidus. I’ll help you out if I can. What’s your name?”

Tidus couldn’t help but grin. This Sohma Ayame guy was great! He’d never seen anyone like him before. How much quicker Yuna’s pilgrimage would have been if it had been full of laughter like this. As it had been, Tidus himself had to supply much of the mirth. Rikku helped a bit, too, but it was hard with people like Auron around. He never smiled, really, nor did Kimahri. When Kimahri smiled, you knew trouble was just around the corner.

Kimahri… Auron… Rikku… Yuna. He tried to stave it off, but another wave of loneliness washed over him. It almost took him down entirely, but he saw the man in front of him posing yet again, and he had to smile.

“All right, Prince Sohma Ayame,” Tidus said with a little laugh, “I know of just the place. I work at a hotel nearby. It has a little restaurant inside of it, and I can get you things for free. If you need a room, I can get you a hefty discount too. Does that sound good, your highness?” Tidus swept a dramatic bow of his own. It had been a long time since he’d enjoyed himself this much.
