Day 65 - [Video]

[Although the feed starts off in audio-only for a couple seconds before he decides he's up for video, Roxas doesn't look any different.]

Hey, Axel, Xion.. Hayner... Well, everybody...

I know some people are freaking out, but I hope you guys aren't so bad off. 'cause, um, I kind of want your help figuring some stuff out.

((Powers? What powers? 100% vanilla human... complete with heart.))

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Considering that Axel has been sort of out of commission for the past couple of days, it's no surprise that he sounds groggy, but he manages enough to respond to Roxas. He's his best friend, after all, and he wants to make sure that he's there when he's called.

After fixing up his hair a bit he turns the video function on and sets it to private to make sure that no one else will hear or see anything. This sounds kind of important, after all.]

Yo. [he says after managing to hold back a yawn.] What's up, short stuff?

[A smile brightens his face at the sight of his best friend, though there's an unexpected and unwanted twinge of... something, at the same time. Is this because of what Demyx told him?]

Ah- W-well, I'm... I'm human.

[He has no idea about what has been going on since he's been gone, so he'll need to be filled in a little bit.

...Especially about this.

Axel blinks at the screen for a moment.]

Run that by me again?

You know, the curse...?

[Blinking right back at you, and then a sheepish look.]

You just wake up?

[He stretches his arms a little bit.]

Another curse? [So that's what it is.] Yeah. Another long nap, looks like.

So- you don't feel any different?

[Seems that way. He would've noticed something was going on otherwise.]

[Axel shakes his head.]

Just the same as always.

...Does it feel weird?

Yeah, but... I think it's a good weird.

You think so? [Hmm.] ...What's it like?

It's like...

Well, the closest thing is like being Sora, but- but it's not really anything like that because I'm still me. Everything I'm feeling is mine.

Hm. ...Must be nice.

Wonder how long it'll last.

[Just a small smile and a nod.]

I dunno... You've been here longer-- how long do these things usually last?

Couple of days? A week or two? Like I can say for sure. [He's been keeping a log about it and tallying up the days, but he hasn't found an average yet. It's frustrating.]

...Heh. Well, at least you got the longer end of the stick this time around, buddy.

It's just- too bad you didn't get one, too.

[He wonders if Axel's jealous...]

Um, do you mind if I come over though?

[...He doesn't respond to that first comment.]

You always wanna come over. How 'bout I go to you this time?

[Another visitor today? He really is gonna have to start cleaning his place.]

That's fine. It'll be faster anyway since- I'd have to walk.

I figured as much. [He's a jerk, but not that much of a jerk. So Axel stands up from where he is and summons a Corridor quickly.]

Don't bother getting all dolled up for me; I'm not picky about appearances anyway, Roxas.

"Dolled up"?

[Roxas quirks an eyebrow and just gets up to head towards where the other end of that portal's showing up.]

[He doesn't bother responding through the SFC and instead speaks as he heads down the Corridor, his voice echoing.]

You know. Dressing up, cleaning up--That sort of thing.

...why would I do that for you anyway?

[He's pretty sure friends aren't supposed to care if you're a slob. Not that Roxas has bad hygiene here.]

[He shrugs as he steps out of the Darkness.]

Because maybe you just feel like it?

[It's a stupid reason, but Axel's not up for coming up with something more creative. He banishes the Corridor with a wave over his shoulder.]

What's up, short stuff? You rang?

[Hi, Axel. Were you expecting to be hugged once you got here? Probably not, but that's what's happening. Just a quick hug, but certainly more than what Roxas normally goes for.]

Well, I did feel like seeing a weirdo, I guess.

[...No, he was not, Roxas, but that's ok. He'll just stare at you for a second. After that flower monkey shine business, this is hardly anything.]

Says a lot about you, man. [He scoffs and playfully pushes at Roxas' shoulder.]

[He looks momentarily sheepish about the hug, but it soon eases into a real smile, and he pushes Axel back.]

Like what? Normal gets boring sometimes.

[He ruffles up Roxas' hair a bit. It's nice to see his best friend right now, especially since back home he hadn't been expecting to see him at all again.]

Well, it says that you're weird. [He snickers.]
