[He's not used anything like this before. But Vivi decides to give it a try. It seems like it would be important to learn how to do this, to talk to everyone, after all. He just added it to the list of things he is learning and is new to figuring out. Which is a rather long one, given he is only technically a few months old, but still. There's initially something akin to the dark sky, and two blinking....wait, eyes? Before the young mage shifts and tries to adjust things a little as he straightens his large hat.]

Is it....it's working? I think. Um. Hello? My name is Vivi. I'm new here, I guess? I'm still figuring this place out. I don't know if anyone has seen my friends, whether they are around here somewhere?

[Cue him holding up a drawing he did. Vivi isn't sure if it might help. But it can't hurt? He won't know unless he tries to ask? Right? He tilts his head, lowering it for a moment as he puts down the drawing and fidgets a little.]

I was told we were here to prove something. To save our home. But I'm not sure if I should be the one who was chosen. I'm not as brave as Zidane. I'm not important like Gar -- Dagger. There's lots of other black mages. So I'm not sure why me, out of everyone...?

[He's not sure if being here might somehow impact things. His short lifespan, and however long he might have left. Aware that because they had stopped the Mist, there was likely no way to create any more black mages. At least that he was aware of. He's sure that there were plenty of other, better options to bring to prove that their world was deserving enough to be saved. But he tries to shake that train of thought.]

This place is pretty amazing, though. There's so many things here that I haven't seen or done before! It's kind of exciting! Even if it is a little scary, too.


[But at least, regardless of what happens to him, he knows the others are alright. Hopes that Zidane is. Vivi isn't sure what else to say, exactly, so he pauses after a moment before fumbling to turn the feed off.]

Always the right person? You think so?

[Vivi isn't so sure, but he supposes all he can do is his best. To make sure he proves that his home is worth saving. He wants to do what he can. Even if he might not be the best option. He just has to make do.]

Caught a chocobo? Um, there was some racing at that place before. But I haven't found any here yet.

[miniroth]

I know so. What you bring to this place in order to save your planet is something nobody else can do, only you.

They're around. You might have to head to the foresty regions, they just all turned up one day, but they're pretty much exactly like you'd expect. Carry some greens and they're a bit easier to catch, it's nice to have a friend even if it's a chocobo, right?

[ornitiers]

Something only I can do? I'm not sure if I'm that special...

[Still, Vivi tries to focus on the chocobos. He did enjoy having some around back home. That at least was something familiar.]

...Yes. If I can find one, I'd like that.

[miniroth]

You're here, so you are. Give it time and do what you can, that's enough.

[He's not good at being reassuring, but for him, that's a good effort.]

Just make sure if you see a red one that you avoid it, it's very aggressive. The other ones are just fine to approach, though most will run away. I believe someone's setting up a stable so they can be cared for, you might be able to even find some hanging around there.

[ornitiers]

Give it time and do what I can....right!

[He nods, then tilts his head at the mention of the red chocobo.]

Avoid the red one? Oh. Okay. Do you think they might need help? At the stable?

[Vivi did rather like the little birds. Remembering when he found a baby one time. Maybe that could be something he might be able to help with here?]

[miniroth]

They could probably use a hand, who can't? Look for a blond man named Cloud Strife, he's our resident expert in the birds and will know more about what needs to be done. I can't remember his username right now, let me look for it.

[ornitiers]

Cloud? Okay. Thank you. Even this much helps.

[It's a start. Something to look into as Vivi figures out settling here. Where everything is. Meeting everyone.]
