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

[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.]

[No, not the hair! Roxas... ruffles it back to how it apparently should be. It's difficult to tell much difference.]

...not as weird as you.

[Yes, the hair. The hair that just never gets messed up anyway.]

I'm ok with that.

[He chuckles and then stretches a little bit. Boy, what a long sleep that was.]
