caughtinanetwork | Day 213 - [Accidental Video / Open to Action]

[The video clicks on when Roxas starts awake, hitting it accidentally. He's not in his room but on the couch in the living area, the TV on and just beginning to scroll through the credits of some movie. After his exposure to film at his birthday he thought he'd try renting something to help pass the night. He must have drifted off at some point and been woken by the finale.

He turns the TV off, regretting it as the reflection in the screen shows him a face that isn't his. Yesterday, he thought it was just another nightmare, but now he knows better. It's unsettling, but he's trying not to freak out.

Turning away from the screen, he notices Axel sprawled nearby as if watching, too. Or at least, he thinks it's Axel, but the SFC shows nothing there. Roxas tries to smile.]

Couldn't sleep either?

[But the figure isn't moving. And then he notices the wisps of black coming off of his friend, dissolving into nothing.

Like when he died.

Already on edge, a panic seizes him now. Something got to Axel. Something from these nightmares hurt him and now he's... Roxas tries to reach him, but trips over the coffee table and falls. By the time he scrambles back up, Axel's nearly vanished, and then... gone.]

N-no...

[Are we seriously doing this]

Don't gimme that carp. We both know you can't be that shellfish.

[Not for long, Roxas doesn't think he can keep up with Axel.]

I just- don't see the porpoise of putting up with bad humor.

A-anyway, the movie's starting.

There's nothing wrong with being gillty of bad humor.

[And after that he starts to laugh even as the movie starts up.]

Maybe not.

[Roxas snickers a little, too. It's... kind of comforting having a conversation that absurd.]

[Ok, he calms down finally and excuse him as he stretches out and rests his head on your legs there, best bud.]

You're a riot, kid.

[That's okay as long as you don't mind him playing with your hair. The spikes are pretty fascinating.]

A riot?

[He yawns and shuts his eyes for a moment.]

Yeah. Never a dull day with you.

[Yeah, they're going to miss 99% of this movie.]

I'm glad. Wouldn't want your life to be boring.

Mm.

[He's also half asleep here, man. Don't mind him using you as a nice pillow.]

[He'll just keep stroking your hair until you're totally asleep. And then probably nod off himself before too much longer.

And considering the background noise, probably have a lot of dreams involving swimming. Maybe we'll be mermen.]
