 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's not fine!

[Lea touches the painful looking split in Roxas' lip lightly, but doesn't say anything else for a few seconds. It's not fine and it is a big deal.]

Whatever. Suit yourself. You're not gonna listen to me, anyway.

[heartismyown]

[Roxas has been in a lot of fights Lea. Almost his entire life. He can take some injuries, after all it wasn't all fun and games fighting the Heartless. He just stares at Lea, uncertain.]

Why are you so mad at me?

[by_heart]

I'm not mad.

[He is, though. A little. But mostly he's frustrated. Fighting Heartless is one thing. Roxas can handle himself against them better than Lea can. Fighting regular humans is something else entirely. It's not something Roxas has experience with and not something he needs to get experience with, either. Getting into fights like that...With Roxas, there's the constant risk of him going too far and seriously hurting someone or not going far enough and getting hurt himself. And if he's going to go do it behind Lea's back, where's Lea's place in it all?]

[heartismyown]

[Lea seems mad though, even if he says he's not and that leaves Roxas feeling confused.

He has fought a few people but they were armed, it's not like kids picking on him. The next time he'll bring out his blade and there is a serious risk he might hurt someone.

It isn't like he was looking for a fight or anything. Not unless he gets a job like that, which he's thought about. After all, he has skills with a keyblade and that's the kind of work he used to do. It would be familiar.]

[If Lea knew what was going on in that fluffy little head, he'd be appalled.]

What's that look for?

[heartismyown]

I don't know. You still seem kind of mad that's all. Even if you said you're not.

[Roxas doesn't have a lot of skills Lea.]

[by_heart]

[There are a million jobs for unskilled high school kids. Roxas can find something that doesn't involve fighting. Hell, they're living in the Destiny Islands. Go catch fish.]

Yeah, well...

[He can't help how he looks. He is kind of mad, after all.]

[heartismyown]

[He sighs a little bit, sucking on his bottom lip. It's a little puffy and weird and tastes a little like blood.]

Okay. I'm going to bed then. Goodnight, Lea.

[by_heart]

'night.

[Lea kisses Roxas on the forehead. He's mad, but he still loves him.]

Leave that lip alone.

[heartismyown]

[He smiles a little and goes to his room to get some much desired sleep.]
