[though it's late in the evening, a certain redhead is sprawled out on his stomach in the residential area's park. several small orbs of his Light bob around like fireflies, keeping his little area well lit even in the quickly approaching dark of night. he's got a gaming console in one hand, his chin resting on the arm of his other as he watches a small video clip. his expression is sad, and the audio is high enough that anyone approaching can probably hear.]

[several of them start drifting toward Sora almost curiously, though Kai isn't looking over just yet.]

[Oh well hello. When they get close he's looking ready to duck if need be, one hand lifted in front of him as if he'd like to touch but he really isn't sure if he should try. He's never seen anything like them before.]

[when they do get close enough to touch him, it's featherlight and as though a gentle warmth has brushed past. Kai has since paused his game and is sitting up, watching Sora curiously.]

[Sora seems to have forgotten all about Kai. The warmth when one touches him elicits a surprised sound from him, and he'll try to get a closer look. What are they? How solid are they? He's incredibly curious to know.]

[his hands will pass through them like smoke. they don't seem to have anything at their center, simply being orbs of light.]

[When Sora discovers this he'll feel a little silly, but hey, it isn't every day something like this happens. He'll continue poking at the lights until he catches sight of Kai, which is when Sora will snatch back his hand to rub at the back of his head instead, looking embarrassed.]

Oh, uh. Hi.

Hey.

[he seems amused, but isn't about to tease Sora or anything.]

They're pretty neat, huh.

Well.. yeah! I mean, I don't know what they are, but I like them.

[Kai is probably used to most people staring at him until they realize who and what he is. There's none of that recognition here, though Sora does have a bit of a confused look on his face.]

They're Light.

[he makes another one to show him, the little ball sitting in his palm. as for recognition, he knows enough about Soras to know why that may be, considering his age.]

My Light, specifically.

Is this what you wanted to show me?

[How are you doing that, mister.]

[he blinks at Sora, letting the ball of Light in his hand disappear again.]

I didn't want to show you anything, you came here on your own.

Oh. I did, didn't I?

[He accepts that readily enough, looking around. Whoa hey, a ball of light! He seems entranced by it, as if he wasn't just playing with them minutes before.]

[...huh. a brief question to Nami over their link confirms what he was thinking, that either Sora's just plain brain damaged or things are really unlinked in there.]

Do you think this will make a good present for Namine?

[He seems to have remembered what he was out looking for, at least. Memories of Namine are the easiest to come up with.]

...probably not. They have a tendency to fade very quickly.

[when away from him, anyway.]

You won't tell her I left, will you? It's supposed to be a surprise.

Of course not. Though maybe she would like something else as a present? Art supplies, or maybe a stuffed animal?

[something that would actually stay.]

I don't think I can find those here.

[He's starting to get distracted by the lights again.]

[he's noticed, and is letting the lights slowly wink out.]

There are plenty of shops across the bridge.

Okay. Thank you.

[Sora turns to head toward the shops, but he doesn't get far before he stops again. He's on a path that leads further into the park, and doesn't see a bridge.]

[he sighs and saves his game, pocketing the console so he can help Sora.]

Come on, this way.

[That game is depressing anyway. Sora looks around for the sound of Kai's voice, turning to follow him wherever he's going.]

Did you tell me your name? I think I forgot.

My name is Kai.

[he'll lead the way toward where he knows there is an art supplies shop.]

You're really nice, Kai. I think.

[He'll follow along like Kai's own little duckling. Which is good, because if something distracted him, Sora would likely forget why he was following someone in the first place.]

[he laughs a bit, almost having expected that. and yeah, he figured that would happen, which is why he decided to lead him there and remind him along the way in the first place.]

Thanks.
