[Here, the newest Jade to the Dressing Room steps in... except, this one clearly isn't Jade. He's dressed much like a God-General, mostly black with blue highlights and designs. He also dons a cape and has a noticeable lack of glasses--replaced with a silver wreath about his head. He lacks the teasing smile that his clones doubtlessly would have, and his eyes were hauntingly empty. He seemed older than most, possibly in his early forties.]

[His only response to his new surroundings is to narrow his eyes and appear lost in thought.]

OOC: Here, have an AU!post-game!Jade. Have fun with him~

Also, NSFW.

And you're taking it awful well, talking to a dead guy.

I guess none of us are ever going to catch a break, huh.

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

Hm. It isn't so unusual... Look who you're speaking to.

Do we ever?

[hymnotic]

Things never do faze you do they?

I would've liked to think that you guys would all get to relax, at least.

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

... It depends, really.

How I wish... Do you know your way around this place?

[hymnotic]

Only until it decides to change itself around again.

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

... It... changes...?

This day is getting better and better.

[hymnotic]

No kidding.

...

So... what's with that getup, anyway?

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

... It's just a change of pace.

I'm not one for long-winded explanations.

[hymnotic]

No, you always had Guy do those for you. But that's not gonna stop me from being curious about what's going on in your Auldrant.

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

True... [He smiles, sadly. He rather missed Guy...] Be curious all you like.

[hymnotic]

[Well, Luke decides it's time to try a different approach.]

...I just mean, are the fonon levels good?

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

[He's on to you, Luke. This is Jade.]

Hardly... The Planet Storm was stopped.

[hymnotic]

And people aren't... taking well to that whole life change, are they...

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

Hm... I can't really say. [It wasn't a lie, really.]

[hymnotic]

We really just screwed it up everywhere, didn't we...

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

... I'm not from your world. Therefore, whatever happened with me does not apply to you in the slightest.

[That's his way of saying, "No. Shut up, Luke."]

[hymnotic]

Well, likewise, really. I was just trying to get some ideas, anyway. [Luke leans back against a wall, looking up.] Hm. I know it's not the same there as how it went for me, but you are sure "I'm" not around at all where you're from, right? Not even, uh... pint-sized?

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

Well, then. You didn't 'screw anything up.' [He remains fairly quiet, arms at his sides.] ... Not at all.

If you're that curious... I can tell you.

[hymnotic]

Are you feeling generous, or am I going to have to pay for it in some way?

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

[Completely seriously, with an unblinking stare to match:] With your body.

[hymnotic]

Not gonna happen.

LOLOL he had to try.

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

[He just smiles creepily.]

Then you don't get to know.

[hymnotic]

[And Luke just shrugs.] Fine by me. Something tells me that knowing it wouldn't help me out much, anyway.

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

Hm. Probably not.

Curiosity is a remarkable thing, isn't it? And I am curious as to how you're still here so far into my future...

[hymnotic]

...

[Closing his eyes, he seems like he might not say anything for a moment before...] I'm not a different replica or anything, you know. Kind of funny that I'm still seventeen, isn't it? Lorelei's got a really shitty sense of humor.
