seasaltkeys | Day 23 - [video; filtered from most of the KH cast]

[More specifically filtered from Sora, Kairi, Riku, Ven, Terra, Aqua, Lea, and Isa. Everyone else is fair game]

[The feed clicks on. It's in a room, and upon closer inspection, a room in the Goldenrod inn. You might be able to see part of Roxas's arm, but for the most part, the feed is focused on Axel the Growlithe and Xion the newly hatched Shinx playing tug of war. Not intentionally though. Roxas is planning on saying something. He just has to find the words.]

Um...[pause]

How...[longer pause. This is bugging him. He's been thinking about this question a lot and finally gotten to a point where he feels he can do something about it but still. It's hard. He's kind of afraid to ask. It has to deal with emotions and thoughts and things that he doesn't really understand. He's trying to hold back his anger, since he knows what happens when he gets angry and it hasn't worked well for him. He's trying something different, for what it's worth]

[and finally, in text]

If you're jealous of someone, how do you stop?

[ooc: Using my dad's laptop to get to some tags/get one last entry up before school starts. That being said, still technically computer-less, so tags may be wonky for a spell or threads'll be stalled. Thanks in advance for your patience.]

But is it really our choice? I was sent home twice now. Each time, I keep forgetting my time here.

Maybe it isn't, but I don't think that that should stop anyone from trying to stay.

At least, I don't want you to go back. Especially if it means you're alone.

... mm. I know.

You like being here too, don't you?

Yeah, I do. I like being a pokemon trainer. And there's still a lot to see.

I kinda like taking care of them. Not so much for the fighting part but it gives me something to do, and I feel like I can protect them and take care of them in a way.

[She's got like 3 baby pokemon with her right now, she's turning to be quite the mother hen with them.]

Me to. It's like having a pet. I wish it would warm up so I could train more though. I have to raise Axel and Xion's levels a lot.

[There's a pause at the names. Ah. Particularly at the last one.]

... is that what you named them?

Yeah. Axel's my growlithe, since it seemed right to name a fire pokemon after him.

Xion is my Shinx. The name just seemed to fit...[glances away. He still wishes he could have talked to her more]

... Roxas, what do you know about her?

She was here for a week before...we only talked once.

Something about her seemed familiar.

[This is the part she mentally debates telling him.

... she hates being the only one who remembers.]

Namine?

Do you want to know who she is?

[... forever the informant. That's what her job is.]

[Pause. Namine knows about her? He's really not sure. He gets the feeling that if he asks, he might end up regretting it. Especially with the way he's feeling now]

Maybe....maybe later.

[pause]Was she important to me?

If you want to know, I can tell you. I just... didn't tell you before because I felt like it wasn't my story to share.

I'm heading to Goldenrod with Aqua and the others.

[pause, a bit surprised that she's on her way.]

Maybe...when you get here. I'm not sure if I want to know. Just yet.

I guess I'll see you then.

MM, okay then.

... I wanted to talk to Kairi face to face.

She's back, isn't she.

I haven't talked to her. [Not intentionally though.]

Mm. And this time, I want to talk to her as soon as I can, before she disappears again.

...why?

Just...never had the opportunity. It's not intentional. It's not like she'd know who I am.

Don't worry, I'm sure you'll get along though.

Yeah. Probably.
