♔ day 4 ♔

[binarysky]

Hamsters are unobtrusive, right? They didn't make a lot of noise in the store. I guess they'll be okay.

[Attached: 1 jpg image of a pile of very badly folded origami...things next to a small cage of hamsters. They might possibly be cranes. Are they terrible because he is cursed with bad luck or because of natural lack of skill? It is a mystery.]

I don't think I'm doing this right.

[Out enjoying the day, Roxas can be found folding attempted cranes near the fountain should anyone wander by.]

Hamsters are cool...I mean, I've never had them, but I've heard they're a good way to start with pets.

You're doing cranes? Awesome!! I've been doing them too...well, not lately, because it's been busy, but I've been doing them! What are you folding them for?

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

They're not really for me.

That girl said if you fold a thousand of them, you get to make a wish.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Aww, but they're so cute!!

Yep, that's the story!! How many do you have so far?

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

I guess so.

Um...do they count if they don't look like cranes?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Give em a try...who knows? You might like having them around!

Hmm...I don't know. I always thought it was the thought that counted, but...hmmm.
I know.
I'll come down and give you a hand! I might not be good at a lot of things, but I can fold paper cranes!!

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

Really? Thanks. I'm down by the fountain.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

No problem! I'll be right down...and I'm bringing a surprise!

[That surprise being strawberry ice cream.]

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

Oh--okay!

[The best kiiiiiind]

[Walks by and- oh! He's folding...paper! Meanders closer, smiling.]

Those are supposed to be cranes, hm?

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

[Huh? Oh, someone's watching him fold. It's funny to not have to duck out of sight here.]

Yeah! You can tell? I wasn't sure anyone could.

action;

[existais.livejournal.com]

I think- I see a wing?

[Points at the...folded paper.]

Are you trying to make a thousand cranes, too?

action;

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

There's supposed to be two.

[Also it has three legs.]

Yeah. That girl said people get to make a wish when they make all of them.

[existais.livejournal.com]

[Squints...tilts his head-]

I see it!

[Beams]

It must be an important wish of yours.

action;

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

[That gets a small grin. Progress!]

I wasn't sure what I'd wish for at first. There are some things I probably should wish for. But I really just want my friends to be here with me.

[existais.livejournal.com]

Won't they just be mad at you for bringing them to a place like this?

[His grin falls to a more thoughtful smile.]

Or is your home really that unpleasant?

action;

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

I hope not! Do you think they would?

[Uh oh. Didn't think of that.]

It's not really my home...just a place where I live. But I don't like not being able to see them.

I know he said to stay away.

But he doesn't know---

Maybe we were too hasty. Maybe we were going about it the wrong way...?

Hmmm.

➥audio➥➥

[faroffdream.livejournal.com]

I don't know how to make them either.

[ a sort of sheepish tone, as if he ought to know, though he doesn't reeeeally think so, just sheepish because that seems to be the default for awkward Sora ]

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

[What. What is this. He knows, crazy kid, Xemnas told him about you.]

So what.

➥audio➥➥

[faroffdream.livejournal.com]

[ BUT IT'S A LIE......now just to prove that um... ]

Uh...so....maybe there's a book in the library that shows you how?

➥audio➥➥

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

[That is actually a useful suggestion. Not that he's going to acknowledge that. ]

I told you to leave me alone.

➥audio➥➥

[faroffdream.livejournal.com]

...yeah ...and I guess normally I'd listen but...I mean I know you don't remember but...

...look, I'm sorry for sort of surprising you, but I didn't realize you were from before me.

[ he thinks this cold shoulder is about the confusion he caused, which in a way it is....but he's not factoring in Xemnas' lies either in large part because he doesn't know about them of course ]

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

[ He's heard about the timing thing and kiiiind of gets it because clearly Lexaeus is here, but at the same time...he's not sure he does. ]

It doesn't matter when I'm from. I don't know you.

Oh, right! I mean...obviously, but--

I mean, can we start over?
