Day 12

[seasaltkeys]

Has anyone seen Kairi around? I haven't seen or heard from her for a while.

Uh...Namine, are you still in Violet? Sora, what about you?

It's raining again. I hope it doesn't flood like last time. 

I think I need better clothes.

I'll hold you to that, except for the kicking my butt part.

[There's a small pause]

So, you really haven't heard from Kairi?

[to that, his expression, and even his posture completely deflate. it's an awful lot like letting the air out of a balloon.]

No.. She was traveling with Riku, but I guess they got separated. She just.. disappeared.

[Roxas nods]

Maybe she'll come back. I mean, you did. And so did Namine.

[action]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

I hope so.. Heck, she might come back shorter, too.

Who's Namine?

[action]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

Yeah, she might. [Although that would mean that fewer people know who he is]

She's...like me. I don't know too much about her, but she's special.

Like you? You mean..

[he doesn't know exactly why he trails off. he might feel strange about prying, or making Roxas feel like he's being interrogated, curious as Sora is about Nobodies. maybe this isn't exactly the kind of conversation for strolling out in the rain under the same umbrella, either.]

Yeah, she's a nobody to. But I'm not sure whose. It's confusing. But she's nice.

[That's about all Roxas can say. It's a subject he doesn't want to get into either. He kind of looks away, and narrowly avoids stepping in a mud puddle]

[Sora frowns when Roxas' gaze turns elsewhere. he can hardly blame him, though- how can he? it's awkward, being connected to someone and not understanding why- so he reaches up to pat him lightly on the shoulder. it's the best comforting gesture he's got.]

Look, Roxas.. I've got a lot of questions, but I know they'll get answered when I'm ready to have the answers. So let's just focus on being friends for now, okay?

[Slight pause, and then Roxas has a small smile]

Okay. That's probably best. I have questions to, after all.

[action] wtf I never got a notif for this

[newhero.livejournal.com]

Well, whenever you're ready to ask, I'll answer as best as I can.

[action] LJ is stupid

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[nod, nod]

I will.

[newhero.livejournal.com]

Good!

You don't happen to know where to get some decent food, huh? I'm going to turn into a pile of trail mix if I have to eat anymore.

There's a few good restaurants in the city. You should have some money to pay for it.
