Day 169 - [Text | Fail Filter from... Roxas's SFC?]

[coolerthansora]

[As when the coral gave him a heart for a week, on waking in a body that can feel, Roxas panics.

The jolt of emotion spawns several Unversed and, startled, Roxas tries to summon his keyblade to fight them off. The weapon that appears in his hand is familiar, but it doesn't belong to him. The recognition makes him stop, and finally look down at himself.

He's wearing Vanitas's skirt suit. Holding Vanitas's keyblade.

He scrambles for some kind of reflective surface, and finds the helmet closest at hand. Those are Vanitas's yellow eyes staring back at him.

What the hell.]

[Once he's calmed down enough and looked through some of the network posts, Roxas makes one of his own, from Vanitas's SFC.]

With what's going on I wanted to say, be careful of the guy in Roxas' body.

I dont know if he'll do anything, but just be on your guard.

...Roxas? Is that you?

<sub>[And he thought that the curses can't get worse. Wrong.

Well, at least it didn't affect him this time.]</sub>

text

[coolerthansora]

Yeah, it's me.

text

[demonicbookworm]

Good. This curse is just... way too much.

<sub>[He'll probably end up asking everyone who they are for the rest of the week

...And he is very thankful he isn't affected.]</sub>

text

[coolerthansora]

seriously.

...you're still you?

[He is talking to Ruca, right?]

text

[demonicbookworm]

Yes. I'm still me.

I think I got lucky this time...

_{[he is pretty sure it'll be only this time though.]}

text

[coolerthansora]

Yeah.

I'm not sure this is good for anybody.

[Wait. Hang on.]

maybe for Vanitas.

text

[demonicbookworm]

I guess so. But for most of people, it isn't good at all. It will cause a lot of confusion... and probably a lot of trouble, too.

text

[coolerthansora]

it seems like almost everybody switched, too.

text

[demonicbookworm]

It seems so...

_{[wow, he really was lucky, wasn't he?]}

text

[coolerthansora]

Im glad you don't have to be anybody else.

[Or he thinks he should be glad anyway.]

text

[demonicbookworm]

Roxas...

You're still you. Even if you look different than usually, you're still you.

But you shouldn't worry too much about this change. After a week everything will be back to normal.

text

[coolerthansora]

I don't feel much like me.

but you're right. It's just a week.

text

[demonicbookworm]

That's right. So don't worry.

But... just in case anything happened, you know that you can always count on me, right?

text

[coolerthansora]

I don't plan on being around anyone. That way nothing'll happen.

text

[demonicbookworm]

Why would something happen if you were around someone?

_{[is he missing something?]}

text

[coolerthansora]

This body's a little


tricky.

text

[demonicbookworm]

Tricky?

text

[coolerthansora]

I don't want to hurt anyone by accident.

text

[demonicbookworm]

I'm sure that wouldn't happen.

text

[coolerthansora]

I almost did already.

[Y'know, if Selim had been a normal kid.]

text

[demonicbookworm]

But almost... right? It doesn't mean anything bad will actually happen.

text

[coolerthansora]

I want to be sure.

text

[demonicbookworm]

...But still... you want to be hiding from people until the end of the week?

text

[coolerthansora]

it's just one week. I used to spend most of the time avoiding people anyway.

text

[demonicbookworm]

_{[but being alone isn't fun.]}

I'll still be worried.
