[he has no game face but he's trying at one]

Hit me with your best shot!

[nor was he expecting this. He's feeling a little awkward now]

I.. um.. all right

[doesn't know what's amiss but he's a Sora]

...If uh, you meant other people, s'okay, I can do something else.

No, no. It's fine. I'll play with you. Umm, shall I count than?

Unless there's new rules I haven't heard about...

It's fine, Sora. I'm just being stupid. Would you like to hide or seek?

I've never seen you be stupid, Roxas. Don't think it's possible.

[glances around and shrugs]

I'm cool with either one.

I'm not so great at hiding myself.

Okay, I can hide then.

[turns and starts to count slowly]

[takes a few exaggeratadly quiet steps before darting down a hall. as a visual fellow, he's already got an idea]

[counts to twenty five and turns around. It's not hard picking up his Sora's scent and he smiles, eyes turning a little predatory. He can't help it. He loves this game]

[thinks he's oh so clever hiding in the garden up in a tree. being a good runner sure gets more distance]

[of course, Roxas is excited and a vampire, so he's quite quick himself, sniffing around with a happy growl]

[pulls himself up to a higher branch and looks around. leaves should be good coverage, at least he thinks so]

[looks around, hearing rustling and sniffing around the trees]

[catches the branch above him so he can lean and watch Roxas]

[sniffs around the tree. Oh, he can tell Sora's been here, and he growls a little in contemplation]

[thinks Roxas is doing a great imitation of a tiger, but he leans a tad too far forward and slips, narrowly catching himself and miraculously without too much noise. however, the bark scraped his hand, woops]

[he hears that slightly and would disregard it if the sharp smell of blood didn't catch his attention. He growls, looking up]

Sora..?

[just...tries to pretend he doesn't fail at life, waving with his other hand, at least before remembering he can't exactly be seen]

Looks like you found me.

[His growling increases]

Come down, Sora.

[blinks down at Roxas for a moment before clambering his way back out of the tree, careful about his hand, getting to the lowest branch and dropping]

You're pretty quick.

I...I found you.

[huffing a little bit. He knows what happens when he finds his prey, and the smell of that blood is not helping]

[nods, just shifting his bleeding hand behind him. stupid bark]

You sure did. Must be a champ, huh?
