[It's not a very long post, or even a very interesting one. The boy's voice is not one that people here are probably going to be familiar with, and his tone is unconcerned, verging on bored.]

Did you notice that the sun's wrong?

[redsnowangel]

Nope.

[Most helpful reply ever.]

[tinystitches]

[Give him a second to figure out the video. Stein's a tired-looking boy in his early teens, with grey hair and green eyes.]

Are you blind?

[Not accusatory, just curious.]

[Zelos, meanwhile, is around 10 years older, with wavy red hair and a red crystal embedded in his chest.]

Blind? Nah, just saying it looks fine to me.

[He hasn't actually checked. That would be effort.]

[notsoholyspirit]

[The sound has turned on before there is any speaking directly into the device. There is a very quiet "you're kidding right?"]

Stein?

[Why is he asking? He'd recognize Stein's voice anywhere.]

Just. Stay by the bay. I'm coming to get you.

[Audio]

[tinystitches]

[That sounds like Spirit, but Stein doesn't want to stay put. He wants to go exploring.]

Senpai. Where are you?

[lookprofessor]

[Hi there. Have a little kid smiling politely at the camera.]

It looks all right to me. Maybe it's in a different position, since the sun's position to where we are now is different from where it is at home for you?

[Video]

[tinystitches]

[A little kid, maybe, but he's probably not much younger than Stein.]

That's not it. It's brighter than it should be, and it's further away.

[monkeystowaway]

What are you talking about? There's nothing wrong with me.

Is that your name? "The sun"?

Re: [Audio]

[frostheartedrose]

I've never seen it.

[Audio]

[tinystitches]

Are you blind?

[Audio] This should go badly in 3...

[blackkirin]

Ah... It is?

[Taiki's going to just... have a look. It's bright, in the sky, warm, and... whatever else the sun does best.]

I don't see anything.

[Audio] 2...

[tinystitches]

You don't see the sun?

voice;

[gullwingsgunner]

Something's wrong with the sun?

[She is... going to actually check that out.]

voice;

[tinystitches]

What do you think? [He obviously thinks there's something wrong.]

voice;

[shslprogrammer]

I-I do not believe there is anything wrong with the sun. Did you notice anything?

voice;

[tinystitches]

If I hadn't noticed, I wouldn't have said anything.

voice;

[witchofsnakes]

The sun is... wrong?

[That seemed like really odd thing to say. But she gives a small laugh never the less.]

I kind of highly doubt that one unless suddenly everything goes dark. Are you sure you aren't seeing things?

voice;

[tinystitches]

Maybe you're the one seeing things. [Stein sounds amused, but not really in a kind way.]

voice;

[behindthefakesmile]

I would ask if you were a native of this place, but they don't seem to have these devices, so I am assuming your sun is different in your world, correct?

voice;

[tinystitches]

You're the smartest person I've talked to so far. [His tone makes it fairly clear that he thinks this person is still an idiot.]

[voice]

[soundmind]

...Yeah. It's too far away, too.

[A native from Death City maybe? But it doesn't sound like anyone she knows.]

[voice]

[tinystitches]

It doesn't have a face.

audio;

[banishment]

It feels fine to me.

[ leave it to a firebender to make that sort of comment. ]

audio;

[tinystitches]

Does it?
