some stagger and fall

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[the replica called Roxas has been gone for a few days, but for how many he is unsure. he actually returned yesterday after his death, luckily waking up in his own bed. proving that someone or rather, perhaps, something had a strange sense of humor, he had found an eye patch on the bedside table. this he wore over the still empty socket of his right eye,

he hasn't slept that well since his return, which should be clear from the dark circle under his left eye, he hasn't left his room nor eaten, and it was hunger and caffeine addiction that finally forced him out.

he's now walking back from the kitchen to his and Richard's room with a cup of coffee in one hand and a plate of sandwiches in his other, trying to hurry and be careful simultaneously. he didn't want to spill and he definitely didn't want to run into anyone he knew.]


[ooc: gone again here~]

[well there's a soft gasp from nearby. someone's spotted the eye patch.]

Roxas?

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[adhjf. he freezes and turns to Olette, pretending that nothing is wrong.]

Oh. Hi.

[sane-as-me.livejournal.com]

[makes her way over, and what is personal space because she's reaching hesitantly for his face.]

What happened? Who did this?

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

W-what? No! I was just training and I slipped... it was a really bad idea to use a dagger, right?

[he's actually thought his little lie through quite a lot.]

[sane-as-me.livejournal.com]

Roxas.

[this is her rarely seen angry face.]

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[eep.]

I-I'm not lying...

[sane-as-me.livejournal.com]

[crosses her arms, looking faintly upset.]

If you don't want to tell me, fine. I'll find out eventually, you know. I find out everything.

[don't mind the female Demyx~]

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[he does mind, but pretends to ignore her. avoiding being social, yay.]

[femmyx.livejournal.com]

No offense, but the pirate style really doesn't suit you. It's more of a Xigbar thing.

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

Try telling the Room that.

[he has no idea what a 'Xigbar' is.]

[femmyx.livejournal.com]

You should get a parrot~

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

Why would I want a parrot?

[he doesn't like to be rude, but if Demyx continues to confuse him he might just keep walking.]

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[fdsahg. he was not at all prepared for that and getting hot coffee all over himself didn't exactly help relieve the shock. he falls down, immediately apologizing and curling up.]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

I-it's not your fault, I should have been-- ...Roxas?

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[he relaxes slightly when he identifies that voice as someone who has not yet tried to hurt him, and gets to his feet again, blushing profusely over his own extreme reaction.]

Riku...

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

What happened to you?

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[he had originally thought that this was another Riku, but now that he notices the orange streaks in his hair...]

More like, what happened to you?

[sure, removing a blindfold might not be as drastic as suddenly gaining an eyepatch, but he's trying to avoid the issue.]

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[Walking along, minding her own business when, OMG!!!]
Roxas?
[She gasps and runs over to him]
What happened to you???

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[he tries not to frown. as much as he's missed Naminé, he didn't want to see anyone right now.]

Nothing. An accident. I'm fine.

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[He mustn't remember much about Namine if he thinks that she would leave him just like that after seeing him like this. She frowns]
Don't give me that. You're wearing an eye patch, I doubt you're fine.
[She sighs and looks at the cup of coffee and plate of sandwiches]
Want a hand?
[Hopefully if she can spend a little more time with him she can get him to tell her what happened]

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

No, I'm fine. Really.

[he didn't want to have to push her away, he really didn't, but he couldn't admit how he lost the eye, how he died... he was ashamed.]

It'll heal up soon enough.

Wow, It's been ages huh?

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[She looks at him, obviously worried. She's not fooled by his lie but she doesnt want him to push her away]
Are you sure?
[She takes a step forward, she's not too close though, Trying to think of a way to get him to open up]

Yeah XD

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[and he backs just as much. he's not sure what he's supposed to behave like around Naminé, what he's supposed to feel or say or do...]

I'm s-sure. Thanks.
