 I need to practice with Roxas! Please drop me a line.


Roxas finished smashing the computer, the one that ruined his life. He swung around angrily and stalked off into an unknown room where he found Sora, fast asleep.

DiZ appeared before him. His eyes narrowed, his hand clenched tightly around the keyblade as he swung it back and forth wildly, attempting to attack him. He was familiar. He was the one who did this to him. It was all about that Sora!

"My heart is my own!" Roxas cried, spinning around. Everything has gone white.

When Roxas awakened, he found himself face to face with....

[It is cold, and Roxas has a bad habit of wandering around in clothes that are not entirely appropriate for the weather. He's gone for awhile longer, but he does eventually come back to Lea's house.

He's not sure he learned all that much, but he did learn people were going around singing and that was interesting. He followed them for awhile, until someone told him to stop, and he had hot chocolate with marshmallows. He still doesn't know much about Santa, but maybe tomorrow he'll find out more. Or he can call on Sora.

It's late so when he comes in, he's as quiet as he can be.]

[He tried to go to bed, figuring Roxas would just let himself in and they could talk in the morning, but that was a joke. He hasn't been able to sleep at all, so he's still awake when he hears the door open and shut. He drags himself out of bed and makes his way down the hall to see what's kept Roxas out so long.

Luckily, Roxas doesn't look like he's caught hypothermia or anything, but he still doesn't look all that cheerful.]

Hey. I was beginning to wonder about you. You've gotta be freezing.

[heartismyown]

A little, but it's not too bad. It's dark, I thought you might be sleeping.

[Roxas locks the door and steps closer to Lea. He brings a chill with him, but it's not too bad. It'll dissipate in the house after he gets bundled up in bed.]

Tried that. Didn't work. C'mere.

[Lea wraps his arm around Roxas' shoulders and pulls him close to his side, like he had before in the hallway, and guides him away from the door.]

Thaw out a bit, geez. You really need to get a coat.

[heartismyown]

[Roxas smiles up at him and leans in contently.]

Why? I'll get warm again in a few minutes. I had hot chocolate too, it had little marshmallows in it. It was really sweet. I don't know if I like it better than ice cream though, I think that's still my favourite.

Do you ever slow down? You're not gonna sleep at all tonight are you?

[Maybe he should ship him off to Sora for the holidays. Then they could run around with visions of sugar plums dancing in their heads or whatever and he could get some work done.]

At least keep it quiet. Some of us need our rest around here.

[heartismyown]

Okay Axel, I can be quiet.

[Roxas nods solemnly and walks as quietly as he can to his room.]

[Lea makes a face. Maybe he really will write his name on his forehead in the morning.]

Right. 'night, kiddo.
