Twelth Keychain-[Action]

[perplexme]

[here have a Roxas tied to a tree in the middle of the forest and wrapped up in bright Christmas lights with 'Merry Christmas!' and snowmen painted on his face, definitely not looking happy. feel free to find him like this. Also, he's got a skateboard laying next to him as a present from the Mally-peoples, but that's not his main problem]

...YUFFIE!

[grumbles]If I don't get down, nobody's getting presents. [yes, he broke down and picked out presents for Aros, Sora, Yuffie, Bella, Fina, and even a little something for Cloud, Xigbar, and Salt]

[[ooc: based on this thread. Happy holidays everybody!]]

I know. Originally I wasn't going to. [don't worry Bella, Roxas is just as uncomfortable and weird about the whole thing] But..[shrugs a bit] that's just if you'd like it.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

[Well, no matter how uncomfortable she is, she's not going to refuse it.]

No...I'd like it. Thank you, Roxas.

[She's goes back to trying to untie him.]

[perplexme]

Not a big deal...[trying to play it off because he's picked up on the fact that she's just as uncomfortable as he is. waits while Bella continues with the knots, trying to help wherever he can I'll give it to you if I ever get off of this tree.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Well, if I'm lucky, I'll be able to get you untied. But...these knots are really tight, so it might take a bit.

[perplexme]

It's not a really big rush...I've been out here for a couple of hours already. Yuffie, as much as I hate to admit it, did a pretty good job.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

I can tell. How did she get you tied up like this anyway?

[perplexme]

No idea. I think I fell asleep and she probably snuck in and kidnapped me. She's been talking about this for a few weeks now but I didn't think she'd actually do it.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

I guess you can't put anything past her.

[perplexme]

No but I'm already planning revenge, just wait. [still pretty annoyed that Yuffie actually tied him up]

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Good luck with that.

[She manages to loosen one of the knots very slightly, but not enough to fully untie it yet.]

[perplexme]

Thanks. But enough of that, how're you holding up?

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Not too bad.

[She's really starting to concentrate on those knots.]

[perplexme]

Are you lying? [watching her, waiting to see how long the knots will take her]

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

No.

[She manages to get the one she's working on loose enough to get it untied, and moves onto the next knot.]

[perplexme]

Good. Just had to make sure. [just standing still watching her work]

...did you get a present from out of nowhere? [asking because of the talk around the journals and the random skateboard he found when he woke up tied to the tree]

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

[A slight smile appears on her face. She had obviously liked her surprise gift.]

Yeah, I got a book.

[perplexme]

A book? [tilts his head in question]

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Yeah. It's called Romeo and Juliet, and it's by Shakespeare. It's one of my favorite books.

[perplexme]

...the story of star-crossed lovers.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's it.

[perplexme]

Somewhat of a depressing story, but it's still good all the same.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

I've always liked it. Though I like most of Shakespeare's stories.

[perplexme]

Same...what's your favorite, if you had to pick besides Romeo and Juliet?

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Well, I'd probably have to say Hamlet.

[perplexme]

Why's that?
