Fifty-Seventh Keychain - [Voice/Action]

[Private, 90% Locked only because it's not that secretive.]

1,095 days. Maybe I should stop counting, but I can't stop. It's weird...it's like nothing's changed, but everything has. In the last three years, I've seen my best friends come and go, I've seen Sora come and go, and I've met someone who looks just like me and a psychopath who kept hurting my friends. But in the last three years, Axel's still as goofy as ever, Xion's learning just as much as I am, and the two of them have stuck with me even with all of my strange thoughts and patterns. I guess that's really what friendship is.

It took three or four tries, but I think I finally understand Sora. I'm still not sure what it all means to me, but I can at least say I feel better about things.

I guess...I've grown. We all have. But what happens after that? Do we all keep growing, or are we going to run out of places to grow? Maybe I'll have an answer to that next year.

...what's the longest amount of time any of you ever thought you'd be here? And were you guys disappointed when that amount of time passed? [Not if. When.] Not to scare the New Feathers or anything, but I know a lot of you out there have been here for a while.

Maybe I should say welcome to the new people anyway. I'm Roxas. I'm not sure how I can, but let me know if I can help somehow.

...oh,Axel and Xion? I know you guys are probably busy but I've got something for you. You know where to find me...and anyway I have something to ask you two. [On the roof, specifically.]

Sora you can come, too. And Ven. And...whoever. [He's got enough to share with everybody really.]

[[ooc: as a side note, currently at work and tags may be slow but I wanted to get this post up. Thanks guys!]]

[ .... she smiles, and sits beside him. ]

Like what?

[perplexme]

Let's go to the mountains for a while. Or even the beach! We should just go on a camping trip for a few days, just the three of us. I mean...I like living here. I like being close to Sora and the others but sometimes...[Sometimes Roxas wants to be selfish and hang out with his friends okay. No Sora, no Kairi, no Riku, no Luke. Just the three of them like it's been from the start.]

Well. What do you think?

[fourteen]

I think it's a wonderful idea, Roxas. [ She smiles, very warmly. ] I don't even care where we go. Let's just ... go!

[perplexme]

We'll let Axel pick. He's the one who taught us about vacations anyway, it'd only be fair that he gets to pick out this one. And it'll be a real one. No practicing from any of us...and Axel's not allowed to sleep the whole time.

No books or studying for you or me, either. [ She giggles. ] And no naps for him! Well, maybe just one. But definitely not more than that! We can't let him laze around the whole time. It'll be fun!

[perplexme]

Oh come on! Just a little bit of studying so I can write notes about what's out there...but only a little. And only one nap. We need it anyway. I thought you'd be okay with that. I can't wait to tell him. I bet he'll be happy.

Nuh uh! No way, Roxas! If we're taking a vacation, it needs to be a real vacation! No work! [ She pokes him in the side, laughing. ] A nap at least counts as resting... even if it's all Axel does. And yeah, I think he'll be happy too. [ beam. ]

[perplexme]

Fine...fine. No work. [He can't help but laugh at that poke. Sorry he's kinda ticklish.] Now we just have to tell him. We should start planning though...how long should we be gone?

[fourteen]

At least a couple of days. Maybe four or five?

[perplexme]

A good, long break. Let's go with four nights and five days. We'll have to pack a lot, and I'll have to leave Nea with Sora and stuff but...it's a plan.
