One after the other;

[From the sound of it, a fight has just begun in the lake room, as an explosion causes the door to crash against an outside wall. Inside, Roxas and a Larxene are having quite a fight. Multiple gunshots can be heard, and every streak of fire flashes bright across the room as the two battle it out. The cause of it all is pretty clear if their conversation can be heard over the noise.]

Where's Namine? What did you do with her?!

How should I know where she is? I haven't seen her since she broke up our little party~

You're lying! Tell me before I--!

What? Hurt me? Oh, you should know better than to threaten me, hero.

[At that, Larxene fires a round, forcing Roxas to dodge and get closer to the edge of the cliff with the lake just below it. Just as he launches back at her, she manages to stab him in his side then grab him by the throat. He tries to burn her hands, but it seems that her gloves aren't just there to look good.]

Say hello to Vexen for me~

[And off the cliff he goes.]

Comments

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[Wrinkles his nose.]

Someone would have noticed by now, don't you think?

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Well, not everyone can sense that kind of thing. Still, I would have thought Kai would say something if you really were.

[Looks thoughtful for a moment, then closes his eyes as if trying to get a read on things.]

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[Oh right, dreamoku mentioned something about that--]

Wait. I forgot-- you had mentioned something about not realizing it before because it wasn't obvious or something.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Holds quite a puzzled look for a moment.]

It's not obvious. I mean, you're not... Well. It's like.

[Sigh.]

It's hard to explain.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

W-Well it can't be true. no way.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Well, you're not like Kai. But.

[Why are you asking me to explain abstract things.]

It really is hard to explain. Almost like... it's muted? If that makes sense.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[Blink.]

... that doesn't make any sense at all.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Sighs.]

Ask your mother Kai. I'm not good at explaining this.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

No way! The less people that know about this, the better.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

...Why?

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

Riku, do you have any idea how much trouble Kai gets in all because of that? I get into enough without anyone knowing!

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Well, you're not a prince of heart or anything. Just. Kind of.

Though I do agree you've got enough trouble just being yourself and all.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

I know. That's impossible.

[He cannot possibly be a good person, what are you talking about.]

I'd say so.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Shut up Roxas, we don't both need self-esteem issues. He's quiet for a while, just thinking about things. -Then he remembers something.]

...Is Namine okay? I mean, I guess since I've only been gone a week it's not that bad, but.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[That's not self-esteem issues, Riku, that's remembering what an asshole he used to be and forgetting how much he changed >>]

Yeah, a lot better than I thought she'd be, at least.

[He looks thoughtful.]

She's killed five Larxenes at this point.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Change is a good thing! Also look at those eyebrows go up.]

W-what?

[Exasperated sigh goes here.]

I guess I should have expected that. I'm not sure if it's better or worse that she doesn't get sad, just really pissed off.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I wanted to talk to you about that actually...

[Brushes a hand through his hair.]

She's probably just. taking her emotions out on Larxenes because that's who killed you... but. I think there might be more to it.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

...What do you mean?

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

I don't know... considering she doesn't know which Larxene did it, and the way she is going after any of them, kind of makes me think she's holding a grudge against them.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Well, I know she's incredibly over-protective of me, but... maybe there is something else. I'll ask her about it, I guess.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you should go talk to her.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

[Nods and stands, offering a hand.]

You gonna be alright if I leave you alone for more than five minutes?

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

I'm going back to my room to pass out, yeah, I think I'll be fine.

[Takes it and stands a little shakily, but stable enough.]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Alright. Try not to have anymore prophetic dreams, you're freaking me out a little.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

Shut-up, it was one time!

[Shoves him playfully and heads for the door.]
