 [ hello, dear city.

sora, newly returned and unaware he'd ever been here before, looks Very Serious in the video he's started broadcasting. ]

Hey, guys! My name is Sora, I just got here, and I have a super important question.

[ sora emphasizes his point by making sure to look Even More Serious. ]

So...do I get to choose my own hero name? Can I be Awesome Man? 

[ ...

well, sora thinks he's funny!!!

he must, judging by the way he cracks up. ]

action for Heropa #033;

[ and a short time later, the residents of Heropa #033 will get a fun surprise: sora, passed out on their couch. snoozing away like he owns the place...which technically he sort of does now. HAVE FUN TRYING TO WAKE HIM UP. ]

[Max can't help but giggle at that.]

I think you do, actually. I don't know, though... I don't mind Super Max as a nickname, but I'm no good at coming up with my own. Just make sure it's one you like.

Nice to meet you, Sora. I'm Max.

[video]

[clownshoes]

I have to come up with something totally awesome, then!

And it's nice to meet you, Max! Did someone else give you Super Max?

[Video] he knew the other Sora, let me know if this isn't ok

[crapbearer]

...Sora?? Wh—

You've been here longer than me, shouldn't you know that by now?

[Video] it's fine!!

[clownshoes]

Should I...? I don't remember coming to this world before.

[Clara laughs - she hates seeing kids show up here, it makes her heart ache, but she has to smile at his exuberance and excitement. She hopes that it lasts.]

I think it sounds like a very cool name, Sora.

[video]

[clownshoes]

See? I knew it would be!

video. she knew the other one too

[fastballspeciaaaaal]

You're back! Hi, Sora!! I think Awesome Man is a great superhero name.

video. he's so confused!! xD

[clownshoes]

Thanks! But, uh...back?

[ video ]

[disorder_heaven]

Awesome Man? How about Awesome Boy?

[ video ]

[clownshoes]

It has to be Awesome Man, because I'm a man. Not a boy!

[ sora shut up you look 12 ]

[This guy's out a lot. When he's in transit between cities or actually handing something to someone, he's not on the network, and he doesn't necessarily think to check it until he gets home either way, sometimes.

He closes the door to the house behind him with a quiet click, and fishes his phone out of his pocket as he's kicking his shoes off. He doesn't look in the living room, instead just heading up the stairs to his room. Halfway up, he stops dead, staring at the newly-posted video.

For real? Sora's seriously back? But then... something about the background catches his eye.

Riku shoves the phone back in his pocket and thunders back down the stairs, scaring his cat in the process. He sticks his head into the living room, eyes narrow in incredulity.]

What?

[He stares for a few seconds longer, then steps in carefully, avoiding the few spots on the floor that he knows will make a noise. When he's squarely behind him, he leans down, propping his arm on the back of the couch for balance, and reaching the other hand out to tug at Sora's cheek.]

[ that is??? totally??? rude???

worst bff ever

sora gives a kitten snore but keeps on snoozing away, vaugely swatting his hand in rikuh's direction. ]

Text (because someone has stage fright)

[mirroredmemory]

Oh you're back! That's great! Does Riku know you're here yet? Have you seen him?

Text; i'm so sorry he can't text for crap lmfao

[oathkeeping]

Hey, when did you get back? [Wait, he just said—] Never mind.

...that's a terrible name, though.

video;

[clownshoes]

[ wait, wait hold the phone--

people somehow knowing him is one thing but DIDN'T YOU GO BACK MAN...THERE WAS A SUPER GAY HANDHOLDING SCENE IN HIS HEART/DREAM...]

...Roxas?!

--Hey, wait!! It's a great name!

( audio )

[assassinate]

Hey bud, not to knock you down or anything but "Awesome Man"? Seriously? You gotta have something better than that, your hero name kinda sticks with you forever.

( audio )

[clownshoes]

What about...Super Cool Dude?

[orions_shadow]

SORA!

You're back! What's up?

[clownshoes]

Not much, but...I dunno why everyone keeps saying I'm back...I don't think I've been to this world before...

[notyourfathersosborn]

If someone can be called Superman, I don't see why someone couldn't be called Awesome Man.

[Though Normie can't help but think both are awful codenames.

He decides to choose his next words carefully, remembering how not everyone who comes back remembers being here.]

Have you talked to Riku yet?

video;

[clownshoes]

Uh...not yet. I didn't know he was here.

[ he was going to start looking soon, actually. ]

[heavyhitter]

Hell no. We already got Superman, and there's no fucking way we can put up with two of you guys around.

voice

[clownshoes]

Awesome Man is different from Superman!

[daimeinashi]

[Oh, isn't this the person Riku mentioned? The one he would supposedly like?

...It doesn't hurt to find out, he supposes.]

Wouldn't asking the network defeat the purpose of a codename?

[clownshoes]

[ ...oh. ]

...Maybe.
