basics

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[back down a certain heavily occupied hallway there's a little kid and several stacks of cards. Sora knows how to play Go Fish and the like, and although doing so with these is entirely plausible, he learned quickly that he can do a different sort of trick with the cards. he's pretty sure he has no use for the bright red cards with weapons on the front, though after poking through a different stack of blue cards, he discovered he could create a tiny wisp of fire and a tiny block of ice! Sora hopes he won't get in trouble for the little black spot on the wall that's still smoldering.]

[he's also discovered stack of cards piled neatly next to a locked door Sora is pretty sure wasn't there when he woke up this morning. setting the door on fire didn't work, so now he's plopped down next to it, shuffling through the new stack.]

... Teeming darkness?

[Sneaking up behind him aaand....Yoink.]

Don't think you should be playing with that one.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Hey!

[waves his arms in an attempt to yoink it right back.]

But, but I was gonna open the door!

[sketch-replica.livejournal.com]

[Holds it above her head.]

Some doors should stay closed. Trust me.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Why's it there if I can't open it?

[pouuuuuts a huge pout, still flailing for the card.]

[sketch-replica.livejournal.com]

It can be opened, but sometimes it's just a good idea not to.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

But we won't know if it's a good idea until we open it! Right?

[sketch-replica.livejournal.com]

Not if this card opens it.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

But..

[that's quite a pout Sora's sporting, but he's falling just short of a temper tantrum, thankfully - maybe it's the other cards that are distracting him well enough, or he's making a conscious effort not to throw one. he scoots back over to the other pile and starts shuffling through them again.]

[If he throws a tantrum she wont give him the taffy she found earlier. :|

Watches carefully.]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[he shuffles through them carefully- seems he's picking out which cards he wants to keep for himself.]

What're these for, anyway? Doin' magic tricks?

[sketch-replica.livejournal.com]

Kinda. Though you should remember that some of these can be dangerous. If you find any more, show Ri first. He'll tell you which ones you can use and which ones you shouldn't.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[... clutches his cards possessively.]

I can use all of them! I'll be real careful.

[sketch-replica.livejournal.com]

[Smug/I-told-you-so/Big sister type look. Show him the Teeming darkness card.]

If you used this to open that door, you could have been attacked by a lot of heartless. Show Ri your cards before you go around using them.

[Sora looks a little defiant, tucking his cards away in his back pocket.]

I coulda taken them! I'm tough!

[he does scoot closer to Emily, though- what? tough kids can be cuddly, too!]

*POTENTIAL DANGEROUS SITUATION DADDY SENSES TINGLING!*

... 'bug? Where are you? You've been pretty quiet.

*has a basket of clean laundry in his hands, yes*

[sketch-replica.livejournal.com]

[Chuckles and puts the card away in her pocket.]

Still, you should probably practice a little more before you take on a bunch of heartless.

[Aww. You get a quick hug then.]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Over here, Daddy!

[oh, how convenient, this card happens to be a zero card. does he just stick it on the door or what?]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[latches on like a little kid magnet.]

I can just set them on fire!

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*sets down the basket first and wanders into your room*

Are you playing with your toys-- PUT THAT DOWN NOW.

[sketch-replica.livejournal.com]

What if it's a Heartless that uses fire too? Then fire wouldn't hurt it much.

[She doesn't mind that!]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Wha--

[he starts, and the card slides right out of his hands and flutters to the floor. luckily he didn't get a chance to activate it.]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[a conundrum! Sora blinks.]

... I'd use lots and lots of fire?

[sketch-replica.livejournal.com]

[Hair ruffles for you.]

Nope! You'd have to use ice against that.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*SWOOPS DOWN LIKE AN ANGRY GOD and snatches up that card*

Sorabug, who gave you these?!

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Really? I've got ice cards!
