~The Great Ice Cream Hunt~

[replicatedaster.livejournal.com]

[It's been a long day. A not-so-fun long day, and Xion's tired. But, as she's been told, the best cure to a long day is ice cream -- sea salt ice cream, of course -- and who is she to argue with a proven cure like that?

She's just going to start rooting through the DR's kitchens, searching over freezers for a box of ice cream bars, though she has to admit, it's a little difficult to properly search when standing on her toes has her still a tad too short to really look.]

You'd think there'd be a big stock of these, [she mumbles, rubbing at the back of her neck with sigh.]

[ He looks up as he polishes off the rest of his ice cream with a curious gaze. It almost feels like his unasked question reached her. ]

Nah... I don't think it is. I mean there's all kinds of different people here. Some you have to watch out for. But mostly? It's not so bad. Just weird.

[replicatedaster.livejournal.com]

Weird...is okay. [She gives a small nod, sighing as she plays with the ice cream stick.]

[oath2oblivion.livejournal.com]

[ That sigh doesn't make her statement very convincing. Which might explain why he gives her a playful little shove. ] Hey, it's not bad! So, look sharp!

[ He chuckles just a little. ]

[replicatedaster.livejournal.com]

[Xion can't help laughing a little, shoving him back with a smile.] Right!

[oath2oblivion.livejournal.com]

[ He grins as she shoves him and his hand finds her shoulder, giving it a little squeeze before he's pocketing the ice cream stick and pushing himself to his feet. He offers her a hand up with a wide smile. ]

Come on.

[replicatedaster.livejournal.com]

[Xion takes his hand after a moment, slipping her stick into her pocket as she gets up.]

So, which way?

/o/ 'grats on getting into Vath. L-LOL I heards you dids.

[oath2oblivion.livejournal.com]

This way. [ He gives her hand a tug in emphasis as he starts back towards the stairs before he lets go of it but not before subconsciously giving it a small squeeze as if to ascertain things. They descend the same steps they came up, but this time instead of making back towards the direction they came from the kitchen, he turns left and follows along the long stretch of the hallway, keeping track of the doors on his left.

A few minutes pass before, finally, he pauses at one and opens the door. And there it was. Home sweet home. The first thing she can see is a small living room. Just a couch and coffee table (with a couple potions sitting on it)- and a few other doors that lead off from it. It's small. Really small. But it's quaint. And home enough for Roxas apparently as he smiles at her. ]

Well, this is it.

Thank yoooou~ You so should app Tidus. <3

[replicatedaster.livejournal.com]

[Xion lets go of his hand to look around the room, tilting her head slightly. She moves to the other doors, poking her head in each of them curiously before looking back at Roxas.]

It's really awesome, Roxas.

I keep looking at the reserve page, dude. ;; I just haven't been on my game lately /been in DRs more

[oath2oblivion.livejournal.com]

[ The other doors lead to a closet, a bathroom, and a bedroom. The place really does scream small. But he likes it. And if Xion likes it, that makes it even better. He grins at her compliment after her short exploration. ]

Glad you like it. [ 'cause this is going to be home for a while. Not that he minds much now. ]

I know how that is. *hug*

[replicatedaster.livejournal.com]

I do! [And now she's got that way-bright smile on, because despite the size, this is the best place she could think to be. ]

/hugging~ Oh well. Things should settle- AND OH HEY. You know Chapel-mun? /was a little nosy~

[oath2oblivion.livejournal.com]

Heh... [ He holds his smile and just watches her a moment longer. It's so surreal to him yet. But then he finally breaks the silence with a scratch to the head and a chuckle. ] So, uh... Feel free to make yourself at home. And later, we can look for another bed. [ He'll take the couch for now. ]

OMG, yes, I love her to pieces. <3

[replicatedaster.livejournal.com]

[Which Xion was not catching onto.] So, where am I sleeping?

She's a sweetheart. ;; I know her from Ruby City. Small world~

[oath2oblivion.livejournal.com]

Oh- In the bedroom. I'll just use the couch. That's all. [ Olette kind of beamed it on him that girls and boys don't sleep in the same place. Although why he still can't figure out. ]

Indeed! I'm actually apping someone there, thanks to her.

[replicatedaster.livejournal.com]

[Well, that's just not fair.] But it's your bed, Roxas. You shouldn't have to sleep on the couch. We can share it, right? [Xion, however, has not had the same mental training, and she sees nothing wrong with sharing a bed with her best friend when there's only one. More comfortable than the couch, anyway.]

OH? Who? 8D /totally not durping out about this~

[oath2oblivion.livejournal.com]

I guess so. [ Awkward turtle. Awkward turtle. But he honestly wouldn't mind it. Really. He still doesn't get the girl stuff. As in he has no idea at all. Olette can just be kind of convincing. But Xion can be, too. And he wants to see her happy. ] For now then. [ Because the bed's still kind of small for two people. ]

Seychelles from Hetalia. XD;

[replicatedaster.livejournal.com]

[Xion looks pleased with that, beaming at him. At least neither of them is without a bed, for the moment. She wouldn't be having any of this couch nonsense with her best friend.] Good. You can just take one side and I'll take the other. [Which sort of works in theory.]

Sweetness~ 8D The Hetalia cast is pretty rad there.

[oath2oblivion.livejournal.com]

[ Okay- That beam might have made appeasement worth it. Definitely. He definitely likes seeing her happy like that. Grinning wide. ] Alright, then it's settled.

So, uh... What now?

( occ: I'm there as Xion and Tifa. But I didn't want to say anything about the Xion bit and potentially make you feel intimidated? 8D; )

I've heard. : D

[replicatedaster.livejournal.com]

Um...I dunno. Maybe you could show me around?


[ooc: Just a wee bit. XDDD But that's so awesome. ♥ ]

Oh-ho? I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun with them.

[oath2oblivion.livejournal.com]

[ Show her around... That earns another head scratch. Where else could they go... that she would like to go? ...But then his eyes seem to light up again. ] Well, I do have one place in mind... It's a little further than the last one. But believe me. It's worth it.

( ooc: |D;; F-Fff. Well, if it makes you feel any better, I do feel like you're doing well with her so far! She's a complicated character. Oro~ )

Here's hoping. X3

[replicatedaster.livejournal.com]

[Xion was willing to go wherever Roxas led, and she nodded eagerly, giving him a smile.] Which way?



[ooc: She issss.]

Eeee~ 8D

[oath2oblivion.livejournal.com]

[ And that suits him just fine. Having that trust. Being able to trust like this... without the awkward barrier. He's glad to have this chance again. Roxas nods, ducking out of the room with a wave and yet another smile. He's just all smiles today. ] This way.

OH GOD HOW DID I NOT REPLY TO THIS

[replicatedaster.livejournal.com]

Okay! [Xion follows him out, just smiling from ear to ear. She's eager for an adventure with Roxas, even if it's something as simple as a tour.]

VATH HAPPENED, BB. |D I usually tend to have game threads > DR/DM/musebox stuff, too.

[oath2oblivion.livejournal.com]

[ This time, the trip takes a little longer and involves a lot more twist and turns. Not that it bothers him- He knows where he's going. As they walk along, he doesn't seem surprised by much of anyone that they pass- at most, batting an eyelash at a genderbent version of himself. Because- just. Holy crap, alright? Kinda hard not to.

Eventually though, he does seem to find the place he's intent on showing her. And without much ceremony, he gestures to the door. ]

There.

EFFFF BUT THESE TWO ARE TOO MUCH WIN TO GET IGNORED

[replicatedaster.livejournal.com]

[Of course, Xion's a bit more bemused by the girly-looking Roxas, but...she's going to ignore that. And ask later. Because, what.

Xion looks up at the door, blinking.]

What's behind it?

Fffff... |D Perhaps.

[oath2oblivion.livejournal.com]

[ What indeed. You should have seen how he first reacted. On second thought, let's not go there. Instead, let's focus on the task at hand... which he's shortly chuckling at her question. ]

What? You don't trust me? [ Teasing. Just teasing. But seriously, alright. Going to open the door then and wave her to the threshold at least. ] We don't have to stay today- I don't think it would be fair to Axel, but. I just figured it might be a spot to visit some day. The three of us like we promised.

[ Take a guess. ]
