I sighed and booted up my laptop. Poor guy, whoever he was, he seemed pretty damn confused. Admittedly, I was too - heck, anyone would be. He didn't do too bad a job learning all the right terms, though.
I logged into the site, using our new password. We'd never much used the site; it was time that that changed. One of my best Coordinators had set it up for me a long time ago, I just had to remember how it worked.
* Head_Phones has entered the chat. *
The words blinked at me; I hoped he'd get online soon. I was always nervous meeting new people, no matter how much or little I showed it.
I wasn't logged in as 'admin', so I could always at least deny being the Head. Izzy had set up my username as a private little joke; I wasn't really amused.
I tapped my fingers on the desk and waited.

He had to admit, he had no idea what was going on despite the time he'd been here, but all the same he couldn't help but be intrigued. Besides, they'd be talking on the internet what could go wrong? He booted up his computer and opened up the chat room.
Username: Sairen Password: *******
*Sairen has entered the chat*
He waited, he'd let this 'Head_Phones' guy make the first move.

I smiled. Good.
Head_Phones: Hey there. Looks like it's just you and me, Sairen.

Sairen: Yeah well, I'm pretty surprised that I'm here myself. You offered me answers and I'm here with questions, but I guess I'll start with who are you?

Head_Phones: My name is Neku, and I'm with a group called the Network; you're currently in our chatroom. We're people like you. People with strange abilities that they can't explain. "Otherborn"; but you knew that term already.
I sat back, stretching my shoulders. How had he found out, I wondered? Ah well. I sent the message.

Roxas raised an eyebrow at the message
Sairen: That I did, but it wasn't hard in fairness, a few internet searches and I stumbled upon plenty of cases of people claiming to be 'Otherborn'...
He sent the message, but it was followed swiftly by another.
Sairen: What are your powers?
His curiosity had got the better of him.

I grinned. Izzy had said that you could find anything on the internet.
Head_Phones: Mainly, I'm a TK. Or PK, depending on what semantics you want to argue.
Head_Phones: What about you? What can you do?
I thought for a moment, and then, a third message followed the first two.
Head_Phones: If you don't want to talk about it, then don't. We're not into prying into your personal life, here.

Feeling rather bored from lack of things to do Riku whipped out his laptop and signed in to the chatroom hoping for some news.
***DarkChild logged in***
DarkChild: Yo! What's up?

Head_Phones: Hey there, Dark. We've got a new member, I was just giving him the runthrough.
I shrugged. Guess it wasn't going to just be us after all, then.

Roxas froze up instantly upon someone else entering the Chatroom, but all the same... He continued, he said it was a Network chatroom right?
Sairen:I have a few, I can summon these two swords, and it appears that I can control the air pressure around me...
Sairen: But, it also turns out I'm not just an Otherborn, so having two abilities doesn't really surprise me either.

Not just an Otherborn, huh? I nodded to myself.
Head_Phones: Dark, this is Sairen. Sairen, this is Dark. And you don't have to worry - we're a private room, so no one who's not one of us can get in.
I thought to myself, nodded again, and added,
Head_Phones: Also... you don't have to worry about saying the word "Halfer". The Head of the whole Network lives here in Urbadelphia, and he's strictly anti-racist, so people have to cope, or leave. You're safe with the Network.

Roxas raised an eyebrow, he wasn't even aware of any racism against Halfers.
Sairen: Huh... I just wasn't certain if it was the right term or anything... But thanks all the same!
Sairen: Oh! And hey Dark!

DarkChild: Hey! And even then, your among friends here.
DarkChild: I've found that I was a latent Otherborn myself and wield the darkness both around and inside me so if you think your strange, trust me strange IS normal for us.

Head_Phones: Nah, tht's the right one... if there is a right one. Most of the stuff you'll hear from us is stuff we made up ourselves to be honest.
I chuckled at Riku's post.
Head_Phones: Trust me, he's not the weirdest of us, either.

Roxas was slightly stunned, did that mean that their were stranger things going on than that which he had already witnessed? If so... This world had suddenly just turned on it's head for him.
Sairen: Okay... I'll admit, I'm a bit weirded out, but I'll roll with it for now.
Sairen: Actually, Dark, your ability sounds pretty cool, I've never even heard of people wielding darkness, save in Manga's and stuff...
