Twenty-Fourth Keychain-[Accidental Voice/Action]

[perplexme]

[so, nobody's really seen Roxas for the past few days/week because he's been hiding out at the lake. Today the blond boy has his feet in the water and he's laying on his back, reading a copy of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and actually relaxing. Or day-dreaming, whichever. Next to him is a small fox who's busy trying to catch a fish, so Roxas is gonna talk to him anyway]

If Alice fell down the rabbit hole, and I fell down the barrier into the forest...and if Alice saw a bunch of weird whimsical things that never existed in her own world, and I'm meeting people and seeing things I've never seen before...and the Queen was trying to more or less torture Alice in her kingdom, and the Malnosso are terrorizing us in their own world...does that make Luceti my own Wonderland?

Kind of messed up, isn't it?

[The fox voices his agreement and Roxas sighs, going back to reading the book instead. Feel free to bother him, really]

Okay...okay. Fine. It's done.

[voice;filtered]

[flaring]

Is that a promise?

[voice;filtered]

[perplexme]

Yes.

[voice;filtered]

[flaring]

Good.

[voice;filtered]

[perplexme]

So what now?

[voice;filtered]

[flaring]

Maybe now you can get your ass back here.

[voice;filtered]

[perplexme]

Where are you, home?

[voice;filtered]

[flaring]

Of course.

[voice;filtered]

[perplexme]

I'll be there soon enough.

[voice;filtered]

[flaring]

I'm waiting.

[sure enough a little bit later Roxas is heading into the building and gets to their room, entering it with his journal and Alice in Wonderland in his hand]

[Action]

[flaring]

[leaning against the windowsill munching on an apple, glances down at the book Roxas has]

Still think this is Wonderland?

[Action]

[perplexme]

Sometimes I think you're my own personal Cheshire Cat. [drops both the journal and the book on the bed and moves closer]

[Action]

[flaring]

I suppose I do have the grin down.

[Action]

[perplexme]

[sits on the bed but keeps looking at him] Not only that but you have the amazing ability to confuse me before pointing me in the right direction.

[Action]

[flaring]

I believe that's in my job description.

[Action]

[perplexme]

What else is in your job description?

[Action]

[flaring]

Being a general pain in your ass.

[Action]

[perplexme]

Oh yeah? You're starting to slip.

[Action]

[flaring]

Yeah well you've kinda had me stressed this past month.

[Action]

[perplexme]

Still stressed?

[Action]

[flaring]

Maybe a little.

[Action]

[perplexme]

Why?

[Action]

[flaring]

This place. You. I'll get over it.

[Action]

[perplexme]

...what about me and this place?
