Fifty-Second Keychain - [Voice/Action]

[perplexme]

[Roxas has spent the last few weeks doing a great impression of a chameleon, blending in with his surroundings and making sure not many people saw or heard from him. But he's come to find that he can't keep hiding, and he can't keep running.

Thus, today, nearly three weeks after the attack on KH house and a week after Sanji revealed the location of the house to him, Roxas has finally decided to approach home to try and face his two best friends.

...or...not. To anyone passing by, they might see Roxas just pacing back and forth in the area, never straying far from what appears to be an empty lot. To anyone who can see the house however, it's very clear what's going on.]

This really shouldn't be that hard.

[Soon though he stops and pulls out his journal, leaning against a tree to keep an eye on the house while he flips to a new page. He takes a few moments to gather his thoughts, but soon he speaks into the journal.]

...anybody have any good advice for making apologies?

Yeah, well, we're already involved. Don't worry about it.

[Hmm.]

I guess if we work together, he'd be outmatched. Vanitas is strong, but I don't think he'd be able to handle all of us. Not when there's only one of him.

[voice//filtered]

[perplexme]

Exactly. We've got enough people on our side that can outwit him given the chance. We just have to be careful and work together.

The only problem's that he'll probably try to get me when I'm all alone.

I guess if that happens, I could always leave.

[perplexme]

Has he tried that yet?

Lots of times. The first time I fought him, he dragged me out into the Badlands, and every time I see him here, it's when I'm on my own.

[perplexme]

So basically he's stalking you. Suddenly everything just got a little creepier.

[...It all makes sense now.]

I bet you're right.

Man...maybe it's time to start investing in a body guard or something.

I dunno, that might be kinda tough. I know it's safer to be with my friends, but I don't wanna be a burden to anyone.

[perplexme]

Sometimes you have to be, as much as that sucks. I think your friends would rather you be safe than wandering free and open to attack.

But what if they're busy? I don't wanna slow 'em down.

And staying inside all the time wouldn't be much better; he'd probably find me anyway.

[voice//filtered]

[perplexme]

There's no way all of them are going to be busy all the time. You're important, so they'll make time. If my friends have taught me anything...it's that.

[Give him a moment...

Heh. Roxas has a point. Maybe it's just because he got so used to his friends telling him to go home or to stay behind.

But they really are stronger together.]

You're right. Maybe I shouldn't worry so much; Aqua and all my other friends wouldn't want me to get hurt, so I don't think they'd mind.

[Sometimes Roxas can be smart, really!]

I wouldn't worry so much. Besides, you're in Luceti. The rules kind of change here to keep everybody together. You'll be safe.
