Sixty-Fourth Keychain - Written

I only have one simple question for everybody.

[Which is a surprise in and of itself. For Roxas, who generally asks lots of questions and pokes and prods at everything, simple isn't exactly something that fits in his vocabulary.]

What do you do when you've run out of things to do? [A pause.] I mean I've been here for 1,558 days. My cat refuses to keep up his painting and skateboarding lessons. ~~Axel's still gone, and Xion has Luke.~~ Time...moves really fast, and I guess I'm just now noticing.

At least it's close to Christmas again. I've really grown to like the snow and the holiday, maybe almost as much as Sora. Heh. All right, I don't think anyone can love Christmas as much as he can. That'll be something to keep me busy for a while, but what then? I think I've read almost every book in the library by now. Is there more that I can learn still, or does it all just stop?

Anyway, I don't really expect an answer, but I'd appreciate it if anyone had some advice.

…thanks.

You make out with your girlfriend, obviously.

You find something else to do.

[He knows it's not helpful. Mostly because he's there himself.]

A new skill set, anything you haven't tried before.

Attempt to attain a new skill in something you have not tried before whether it may be cooking or learning a specific fighting style, invent unique tools, read a book you have yet to read, discover a new mystery to engross yourself in. [Did you see that last one coming Roxas]

There is an endless amount of things you can find to preoccupy your time, Roxas.

[Well, he can't give any ideas for things to do since he finds sitting in a corner perfectly fine, but-]

...What's Christmas?

Of course it doesn't all stop. We haven't figured out how to leave here yet. It doesn't stop until we've gotten the answers that'll get us home.

If you have run out of means by which to keep yourself entertained, perhaps you might consider using your time in service of others.

[...Three guesses as to who recently got her memories back and the first two don't count.]

You're still trying to teach your cat how to skateboard?

Man, if you find any good pointers, let me know. I've had the same problem for ages.

[Heh.]

When I asked about it a few months back, people suggested taking up a job or training with a new weapon. Don't know how much it'd help you, but I figured I'd pass it on.

You could babysit.

[Her tone is dry and sarcastic, though. She's not really expecting him to take her response seriously. But, man, some days when looking after Sophie she had the time to run out of things to do, so it kind of slips out.]
