Day 160 - [Video]

[Roxas appears on the screen, looking unsure of himself for a moment before taking a breath.]

Um... I wanted to apologize to a couple people for last week. I said some stupid things and- it was probably really frustrating.

I've been thinking about having some things of my own, and... I think the last day of summer would be good for a birthday. It still seems weird to just pick, but- I guess I've gotta turn 16 sometime.

[He pauses, looking like he has something else he wants to say, but his cheeks pink a bit and he just turns off the feed.]

Yes, there is.

Just let Sora handle it.

Sora didn't-- [Why he's talking about this, he doesn't know. It's the past, well, at least Roxas' past. And there's no use talking about it here if there's nothing they can even do about it...

Frustrated, Axel shakes his head.]

Whatever. Just--Nevermind.

[It's something Roxas hasn't really wanted to talk about either. It scares him, and it hurts a little, too, that Axel is determined to go back to that. But--

But Roxas isn't going to let him. If he has any say in the matter, if the time ever comes when they can choose to go back, he's not letting it happen.

...he doesn't want to argue now, though.]

For now, we're here. You don't- need to be in any hurry to go back, okay?

[He doesn't want to upset Roxas, especially since they really don't have anything here to argue much about, so he drops the topic and with a sigh he just nods.]

Right.

[A beat,]

Guess I'd better go find something to wear for tomorrow, then.

[coolerthansora]

Yeah.

[He forces a little smile.]

See you there, right?

[flared]

You will, birthday boy.

[And with that he'll end the call.]
