♪ sixtieth water clone [voice]

[ninthserenade]

I'm not talkin' to anyone with the video for awhile, guys. This one curse is uh... back. And it hit me this time. The stuff in 'em isn't really, uh... good. I-I mean, it's good cuz Lea's in it, but it's kinda dirty. I got it hidden under a blanket right now but I don't wanna take a risk of it falling off 'n broadcasting to the entire city, y'know? A-Anyways, erm... And I might not be out and about unless I find a way to cover this stupid thing up for awhile. I-If anyone really needs to see me though I can try and figure something out.

[//Filtered to Lea]

It's, uh... I saw the bubbles 'n it reminded me of that one dream you had when I was in a dress and you fought a dragon on the chocobo and Stein dragged the dragon off and then you caught a shark and got a key outta its mouth and then you 'n Isa started kissing me and it was all over the networks til I woke you up and then we things kinda lead to us to uh... On the bed and we were touching each other. I wanna, um... Y'know. Again.

[flared]

[I'm just totally hotter. That's all.]

I'm just saying.

[Laughs a bit]

Did you really have to broadcast what your thoughts were about to the whole place?

[ninthserenade]

_{[But Lea's cuter! Beat that, jerkface!]}

Um...

_{[Yep, sure is a nervous laugh.]}

[flared]

[If you could see him tapping his foot against the ground.]

Mhm?

[ninthserenade]

_[Momxel.]

Maybe?

_{[Wrong answer, Demyx.]}

[flared]

[Demyx. B|]

Maybe?

[ninthserenade]

_{[Moooomxel! /whine whine!]}

Okay, okay, maybe not! Stop givin' me that look with your voice!

[flared]

[No dinner for you tonight. /huff]

It's either yes or no.

[He'll take either of those over a "maybe.]

[ninthserenade]

_{[Fine! It's not like I'm hungry! /broods with food stash in room.]}

...Maybe just a little?

[flared]

[Don't you gimme that attitude, mister. /HANDS ON HIPS]

Yes or no.

[ninthserenade]

_{[Moooooooooooooooooom!]}

Yesno.

[flared]

[DEMYX.]

There's just no reasoning with you.

Are you seriously gonna stay cooped up under a blanket all day?

[ninthserenade]

_{[GOSH. I'M TELLING LEA.]}

W-Well, uh... I thought about chilling with Lea for a little bit 'n I dunno what's gonna happen cuz of the bubbles, so... Uh. Just sort of a heads up.

[flared]

[...Does that make Lea your dad or something.]

I'm in the house.

[So, uh. If you try anything, he'll know. Doesn't mean he'll necessarily stop you, but he'll be here.]

[ninthserenade]

_{[...okay I'll tell Xigbar. He'll back me up. He's the awesome bro-uncle.]}

I'll put something on the door. Or something.

_{[That is so unnerving.]}

[flared]

[Bro-uncle Xigbar isn't here right now. He's too busy making a cameo in the latest KH: 3D trailer.

Well, Axel could make a really huge fuss about this...but instead he manages a bit of a smirk. Perhaps he can just make a nice joke out of it instead.]

Good. Then I'll be sure to stand guard outside. Wouldn't want anyone interrupting, you know.

[Not even the Pokemon!]

[ninthserenade]

_{[The jerkface left me behind, damn it.]}

Stand guard out...side... <sub>[Give him a second to let that soak in.

...

...

...]</sub>

Dude, what the heck!? You'd be hearing everything!

[flared]

So? I'll just read a comic book or something. Maybe that'll distract me enough.

After all, I don't want people out there seeing my thoughts either, Demyx. I can't just go outside.

[ninthserenade]

Ah... I've actually got a collection that I started up last year. s'a big box if you, uh... Y'know. Wanted to take a peak at it.

Don't tell me you've got perverted thoughts too, man.

[flared]

Oh, yeah? Sure, I guess I could.

[He taps his cheek in thought, though of course you can't see that or his thought bubble, either. Thank goodness.]

What, are you curious now?

[ninthserenade]

Mm. You read a couple last time you were here.

_{[Unless he decides to come out of his dungeon. But that's not going to be any time soon.]}

Just a little.

[flared]

[...Huh. This is so weird to think about. It's like there's a twin of him that isn't Lea.]

It's not all that exciting.

[Just the occasional dirty thought, maybe. But mostly it's stuff about sunsets and Roxas and...some other person that's just kind of there, but isn't. Sometimes he thinks about Saix and sometimes he envisions Isa standing not too far away, just watching and not saying anything. All of those are just so personal. And probably just stupid to anyone else but himself.

Axel's voice lowers down a bit, less amused.]

Well, not as exciting as yours, probably.

...Look, if you really need your time alone, man, I'll just go for a walk or something and try to stay out of sight.

[ninthserenade]

...Maybe once I get mine under control we can swap 'em or something. It'd probably be a lot easier to explain how things happened and stuff too with the scar I got on my face 'n junk.

_{[He fidgets a little, tripping over his own words in his head.]}

If you start feeling uncomfortable you can, but I know a couple good hiding spots. The forest is pretty big and they even got some hot springs in there to relax in, an' then there's the abandoned village up on the surface.

[flared]

[But he just doesn't want to stay too far away from Lea. If he's been with Demyx for this long without a huge problem, then that's fine, he guesses, but, still, he's concerned. It would be awkward to stay, of course--

--Axel laughs a bit.]

You sure there's no monsters in those places?

[ninthserenade]

_{[Axel, you are the biggest mother hen Demyx has ever seen. Then again, he'd be pretty darn protective over Myde in that kind of situation, too.]}

Positive. Me 'n Lea checked both of those places out already so it's pretty safe. I definitely recommend the springs though. They work wonders when you're tired or stressed out.

[flared]

[You'd better believe it, buster.]

...Mm.

[It would just be lonely, is all. Axel shakes his head. It's not like he should worry about being lonely. He's used to that sort of thing. He thinks.]

You saying I'm stressed out?
