[Seems Riku was looking for the garden, but he came across a similar outdoor room instead. It's a nice big open area with trees everywhere, but they're all very bright and colored as if it were October. He's decided to take advantage of the autumn room though, and lay on the grass beneath one of the big shady trees.]

[Hey guess what, your BFF is interrupting your tranquility by throwing a big pile of leaves on you 8D;]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[pdfgsdg thanks for that, you derp. Giving him a Look now and trying to throw a handful back.]

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[Oof. Leaves to the face. Just laughs and walks back over, plopping down next to him.]

Hi.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Hey.

[Props himself up on his elbows, staring at the sky.]

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

When did you find this room?

[Looks around.]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

A while a go.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

Huh. I've never seen it before.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Me neither. But it's nice.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

Yeah.

[Lays back beside him and looks up at the tree leaves.]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

...I was looking for the garden. But I think this is better. ...Safer, anyway.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

Safer because you're afraid of running into my Namine?

[Teasing grin.]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Stop being psychic. Looks away.]

Mm.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

She doesn't hate you, I mean it.

[Falls silent after a bit, his grin falling.]

Besides, she won't be in the garden much anymore.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[You can say she doesn't hate him all you want, Roxas, but he's not that inclined to believe it.]

Something happen?

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

Our world's Marluxia showed up and he seems to have some infatuation with Namine. Which isn't a good thing, believe me.

[Totally did not just shudder, what are you talking about.]

He recently managed to disappear into thin air, then reappear just in time to grab the little versions of me, Namine, and Sora.

It wasn't pretty.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Oh please, like your BFF can't tell when something squicks you out.]

...Are they alright now?

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[He was hoping he didn't notice >>]

... not really. Sora is okay, Marluxia saved him for last and we got there in time to stop anything too bad, but. [Sigh.] He beat the shit out of little me and he looks horrible. Potions only do so much.

And with little Namine-- he. w-well. she isn't talking.

[Ohgod, so unsubtly uncomfortable on that subject.]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Stays silent if only because he doesn't know what he can say to help. But his expression makes it plenty obvious he's not happy to hear this.]

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[After a bit of silence, he just breathes a quiet laugh.]

Sorry, I'm completely ruining your peace here.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

It's funny.

[Stays looking away.]

As soon as my life stops sucking, everyone else I know gets hurt.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

But it makes me feel better to know you're doing well...

[Gives him a small smile.]

I've known Marluxia was going to show up here one of these days, I just didn't know when.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Shifts a little.]

Never liked Marluxias.

[correcting.livejournal.com]

[ peek-a-boo! there's now a Kairi staring down at you. ]

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

Me neither.

[Flops onto his stomach and rests his head in his arms.]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Gives her a brief smile.]

Hey.
