Day 44 [video]

[seasaltkeys]

[The video opens on Roxas. He looks a bit worn out and kind of slumped.]

For anyone who has a Joltik, just so you know. They get bigger when they evolve.

[He lifts to camera up to show a Galvantura sitting happily on Roxas's head while Sparky is chattering at him to get down. The Galvantura shows no signs of moving, but rather settles in further, it's front legs coming down in front of Roxas's face. He attempts to brush them out of the way to no avail.]

A lot bigger.


[Private Text to Namine]

I was thinking we should head out to Kanto soon. Is that alright?

[Private Text to Sora]

Answer this if you're awake. Also, don't bother getting a bike. They suck.

I thought so. That's okay, I can wait.

[ another pause. ]

Um... Roxas?

private

[seasaltkeys]

Yeah?

private

[heartdive]

I'm really sorry.

Re: private

[seasaltkeys]

About what, specifically?

[He'll take the apology, but it would be nice to know what for.]

private

[heartdive]

For all the bad stuff that had to have happened. It hurt so much and none of it was right.

private

[seasaltkeys]

No. It wasn't.

[And while the pain of it all is fading after two years, he still can't deny the stabs of resentment he feels.]

But thanks.

private

[heartdive]

I'm still gonna find a way to fix it.

[seasaltkeys]

[Roxas really doesn't expect anything else from Sora.]

Maybe that's why it has to be you. Because you think about stuff like that.

private

[heartdive]

Like you wouldn't?

private

[seasaltkeys]

Maybe. You're just more likely to, Sora. I mean. You think of everyone else before you.

private

[heartdive]

You put your friends first too though, Roxas.

private

[seasaltkeys]

But you're the hero.

[He doesn't have a high opinion of himself in that regard.]
