I just had to come back one last time;

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[Roxas hasn't been around much today, instead sitting in the middle of a room. The building looks as if it's been in that state for a while, little sprouts of grass breaking through the broken boards and vines through the glass-less windows. No matter how grim the situation looks, Roxas doesn't look upset, instead rather content, just looking around with a small smile on his face.]

[ooc: The room he's in can change to show the current state of whatever place the person sets it to. It works sort of like the simulation room. Roxas set it to his house.]

[Hey you, I hope you're not brooding in here. Kairi makes her way in carefully and quietly, trying not to step on anything that looks too damaged.]

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[On no, of course not. A board she steps on creaks and Roxas turns, giving her a small smile when he sees her.]

Oh, hey.

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

Hey. You alright?

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

Huh? Yeah, I'm fine.

[He pushes off the ground and stands up, dusting himself off.]

Just... looking around.

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

Mm. There's not all that much to look at, is there?

[But she's looking around too, just for good measure.]

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

There is if you know what used to be here.

[He pockets his hands.]

This is what's left of my house.

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

[She figured it was something important.]

I'm sorry.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[Shrugs.]

Eh, I've accepted it. It's nice to be able to see it again, though. Broken down or not.

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

It's good that it holds more than just sad memories for you.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

More good than bad.

[He points to the far left corner.]

That was the living room. I learned how to play guitar there.

[Moves and points at the window to the right of where they are.]

And that's where the curtain was hanging that I caught on fire the night I found out about my powers.

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

I guess no matter what, the memories stay.

[It really makes her miss home, actually.]

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[He just nods.]

Yeah, they do.

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

[She can't really imagine anything but what she sees here- burnt rubble. But the fact that there's more meaning to someone else makes her look thoughtful.]

How long has it been?

[natures]

... what is this place?

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[Turns and looks at her over his shoulder.]

My house... Or what's left of it, that is.

[natures]

... I'm sorry.

[She rests a hand on one of the burnt wooden beams thoughtfully, some small flowering vines growing around it as if making sure it wouldn't crumble.]

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[He smiles at that.]

Nah, don't be.

derp, my bracket

[natures]

Do you mind? I want to make sure it doesn't crumble.

[She means she'll try to let plants grow to hold everything together.]

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

No, no, by all means.

[natures]

[She nods and clasps her hands together and closes her eyes, as if praying, before vines start growing all around the wood, hugging them and supporting to make sure they don't rot away. The flowers lessen how grim the place looks, some off them pushing away the burnt debris.]

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[He just sits there, leaning back on his hands and watching.]

Mom would've loved it.

[natures]

[Once she's done, she walks over to him and sits down next to him.]

I'm sure she would have.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[He wraps an arm around her and leans his head against hers.]

Thanks.

[natures]

... are you feeling okay?

[She runs a hand through his hair comfortingly, watching him closely.]

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

Huh? Yeah... I just-- wanted to see this place again.
