Noise jellyfish. And yes, if you're overwhelmed, you get erased. They don't just paralyze, they attack too.

[As annoying as the mammoths and bears can be, the smallest ones are sometimes more annoying. Especially when your existence is on the line.]

[You know what he meant! Roxas just learned what a jellyfish actually was the other day, so give him a break.]

So the ayakashi he made into half-Noise... did those bodies already exist and he just added to them? He can't just create something from nothing.

[Jellyfish are fascinating. Joshua likes them. They look so unassuming! But some kinds can be extremely painful, or even deadly.]

Ayakashi and Noise are actually very similar. They're both made of relatively the same thing, and they both feed off of human negativity. Basically, when a person dies, their soul either Ascends automatically or stays behind in the Underground to either be refined or erased. If erased, they join the energy that makes up all living things, and Noise are born from that. Unfortunately, Taboo Noise seem to be made from that energy, as well.

Minamimoto was taught how to summon Taboo Noise. I believe he took existing ayakashi and melded them with Taboo Noise of his own creation.

[Roxas just thinks they looked like little nightlights in the tank they were in. Little floating nightlights.

After hearing that answer, he grits his teeth hard. He has to make himself look down as his hands curl into fists. This sounds way too familiar.]

They sound just like Unversed. Vanitas could make something like those Taboo Noise, too.

[Interesting name. Joshua tilts his head, humming in thought.]

This "Vanitas" isn't here, I hope.

No. [Roxas looks right at Joshua with something like deep hatred in his eyes.] If he was, he wouldn't be for long.

[leggierissimo]

[Good. That's enough for him. Joshua waves a hand with a slight smile.]

Good to hear. I should hope that wouldn't be tolerated.

[missingache]

[Roxas wasn't strong enough the last time he fought Vanitas, but now he would be. Not that it matters. Vanitas wouldn't come here. Hopefully.]

I'd warn everyone if he did show up.

[leggierissimo]

[Oh, Joshua wouldn't bank on someone not showing up here. Outside of it being completely random, he's already had two people show up here that shouldn't have.]

Perhaps we should draft up a watch list. It might not hurt to have one.

[missingache]

Mine'd be pretty long. [Xigbar, or Braig... Xaldin, Luxord, Demyx, pretty much the entirety of Organization XIII. And all of Sora's enemies, too.]
