bats

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[Sora is venturing out of his room for the first time this week, now that he feels ten times better after a nasty bout of the chicken pox. he likes his Halloween costume a whole lot more this year than last year too, because he can actually move around in this costume! maybe if he's really lucky, he'll even figure out how to use the wings to fly.]

[right now, though, Sora needs to glue all these paper bats to the wall in preparation. glue is the safest way to adhere things to the wall, right?]

[ --what is this massive amount of cute here. Xion stops to watch, blinking. she doesn't register immediately that this is a Sora, because 1) tiny 2) costume, but she'll get that in a minute. in the meantime: ]

Hey, what're you doing?

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[who is this person that looks suspiciously like Kairi talking to him? Sora's cheeks immediately turn red.]

U-uh .. decorating!

[poppetry.livejournal.com]

[ ... why is he turning all red?! that's weird. ]

What for?

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

For Halloween! See, I'm a ...

[stares down at his costume.]

I'm a .. I'm a pumpkin guy for Halloween!

[poppetry.livejournal.com]

... [ she can't help but smile a little at him. though he's very familiar... ]

Halloween? I've heard of Halloween Town, but... I didn't know "Halloween" was something separate. What is it?

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Halloween! It's where you dress up in a costume and you go to everybody's house, and you say trick or treat! And then they give you candy!

And then you go home and you eat the candy!

[poppetry.livejournal.com]

[ :o ]

That sounds like fun. And you put up decorations like this for it, huh? Would you like any help?

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Yeah! You can help put up more bats, Miss pretty lady!

[poppetry.livejournal.com]

[ she laughs quietly, and one of her bunny ears flops into her face. ]

I'm Xion. And you're...

[ she squints at him, then comes to a sudden realization with a quiet gasp. ]

You're Sora, aren't you?

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Uh huh! Your name's pretty, Miss Xion lady!

[holds up a bat covered in glue.]

[poppetry.livejournal.com]

[ to have or not to have an internal crisis over meeting her first sora.

... not to have. he's so adorable, and she can't help but smile. she takes the bat and pins it to the wall. ]

Like this?

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Yeah! You did it!

[applauds wildly!]

Now we gotta put up a billion more!

[poppetry.livejournal.com]

[ slkdjfhlkjsd omg she laaaughs. ]

A billion? That's a lot! We better hurry, then. When is Halloween, anyway?

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

October 31st! Don't worry, Miss Xion lady, we've got lots of time!

[oops, he's reaching a hand up to her.]

[poppetry.livejournal.com]

That's good. We're going to need all the time we can get.

[ ? she has no idea why he's doing that, so she's just going to let him, derp. ]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[Sora likes to think he is a lady's man! ... sort of.]

Where else should we put the bats?

[poppetry.livejournal.com]

[ if only she understood that particular concept. oh well! she just thinks he's sweet. ]

How about on some doors? Maybe they'll surprise people.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Hey, yeah! That's the best idea ever!

[poppetry.livejournal.com]

Ha ha, if you say so. Come on!

[ she goes to gather up a few more of the bats ... only to find one of them sticks to her gloves. too much glue = a bad thing. especially now that one of her bunny ears has flopped into her eyes, making it a little harder to see. ]

Hm. We might need to be a little more careful with ... whatever this sticky stuff is.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

It's glue! See, you put glue on the bats and then you can stick things to them!

[very thoughtfully sticks a bat to Xion's coat.]

[1/2]

[poppetry.livejournal.com]

...

[poppetry.livejournal.com]

[ she's just. trying. so hard. not to laugh some moar. she peels off one of her gloves to give him a pat on the head? ]

My coat needed more bats. Thanks, Sora.

[ she detaches the bat from her other glove, then pulls that one off too. then she'll gather up a bunch of the bats in her arms and some glue and grin at him. ]

Let's start finding some doors! You pick, I bet you'll do a better job than I would.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[beams at the headpats.]

Okay! I'll lead the way for you, and you can glue them on!

[poppetry.livejournal.com]

[ well this should be fun. Xion's just gonna stick bats on doors whenever Sora picks them out. though she'll also add another bat to her coat, one to his sleeve, and get glue absolutely everywhere in the process. ]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[they are glue buddies! it probably doesn't help when Sora starts waving his arms up at Xion, wanting to be held.]
