[Looks like the simulation room's taken again. There's a Roxas in what looks like the dark city surrounding the Castle That Never Was, making liberal use of fire magic and just one keyblade. He's playing things a bit close to the chest, letting the various heartless get quite close to him before blasting them with fire or a slash to the face.]

[She had just been walking by, but the sound of a fight made her stop and look. And now she's just watching, kind of interested.

Also she has a heart now, so if those heartless are like the real ones, she might be distracting some of them.]

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

[They are programmed to go after hearts and not just attack, since he makes a good target for that. He notices that a few of them are turning their attention to her, and blasts any that get close with a few quick fire spells.]

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

[u-uh. takes a step back when some turn towards her, but she knows they can't attack her outside the room so, she'll just stay out of Roxas's way.]

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

[He takes down a handful more, then makes his way to the controls to shut off the simulation.]

...Sorry about that.

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

It's okay... sorry for interrupting.

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

[Shrugs, dismissing Oblivion.]

It's fine. I was almost done anyway.

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

Oh okay...

Have you been training long? We could go get some lemonade or something.

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

'Bout a half hour. So sure, why not.

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

Alright.

[Maybe she shouldn't be so quick to trust Roxae, but. well, she is. Just heads off towards a kitchen with her hands folded together behind her back.]

So, are you a Roxas?

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

[Not like he has any evil intentions.]

...Who else would I be?

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

[Shrugs a bit.]

A lot of people around here have odd stories. You could be someone's future kid for all I know.

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

[Cracks a small smile.]

Good point. So just to check then, you're a Namine, right?

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

[Smiles back.]

Right.

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

Well, at least we've sorted that out.

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

Yes. So I guess the 'what kind of world are you from' question comes next?

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

If we're establishing an order of questions, sure. But I went first last time, so it's your turn.

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

Okay... well. My world seems like most of the others here. Keybearers, nobodies, heartless... things like that. The only difference that I know of is that people seem to think we smell funny.

[You might notice the strong orchid scent coming from her.]

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

[He did notice that, but he figured it was perfume or something.]

Well, I wouldn't say you smell funny, but you do have a strong floral scent.

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

Mhmm. We didn't really notice until we came here. It's just the way our bodies smell I guess. The Roxas from my world smells like pineapples.

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

Steamed pineapples? Strange. I wouldn't have imagined myself to have that kind of smell.

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

[Shrugs a little. They made it that because of my Roxas xDD]

It's nice, though.

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

[Shrugs as well.]

I think the guys back home would find it hilarious if I suddenly smelled like pineapple.

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

Oh? I guess we don't really think about it because everyone has their own scent like that in our world.

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

They'd probably think it was girly or something. Though my world has something sort of like that. For example, Kairi has this sort of... I dunno, but it's close to a scent. If Light had a smell I guess.

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

Is Kairi a princess of heart in your world too?

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

Yeah. She is in most worlds, I believe.

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

Only in the ones like ours.

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

I've noticed some of the Kairis around don't have that scent, but I figured the majority did. So, does that mean that you and your world's Roxas are...?

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

... are what?

[Looks at him.]

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

[Thinking back over it, they're not fond memories. The look in his eyes should say so before he shakes his head.]

...Nevermind. Stupid question. So how long have you been here?

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

[Drops it then. She's quiet for a moment, trying to figure that out.]

A couple months, I think. Four or five.

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

I've only been here about two months and I'm already wishing I could go back. Kind of strange, really.

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

It's not that bad once you get used to it... once you start making friends and stop being homesick, it gets better.

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

I mostly keep to myself in here. Maybe that's the problem.

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

You should really try talking to more people. If you're nice maybe you will make a friend or two.

If you can talk like this with other people, you should be fine.

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

[Why the emphasis on nice. Of course he's nice.]

I guess. I'm not a big social person, not like Sora.

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

[Well she knows her world's Roxas can be mean sometimes.]

You don't have to be as outgoing as Sora to be able to hold a civil conversation.

[illumifated.livejournal.com]

I know that. I know how to talk to people without being a jerk. I just don't make a point to meet new people.

[orchidenchanted.livejournal.com]

So make a point.

[At the kitchen finally. She just heads over to the fridge and grabs the lemonade :>]

[neverpure.livejournal.com]

Anger management, huh.

[he's at the controls now, just... floating there.]
