[video] Forward Dated to the 26th

[Xion might be sounding a little bit tired. She's sitting on the couch in the common room of Floor 6 Piseces. Let's just say trying to figure out how to keep so many people she knows together is getting... to be a bit too much. Her and Lea and Roxas in just one room was ridiculous enough. Now there was Axel, and Sora... not to mention Riku and Terra and Aqua and Xehanort]

Um... if you and your friends were looking to maybe move into a bigger apartment, how would you... do that?

[She gets the feeling it's not like looking for a hotel or inn like they'd done while world hopping... and even so she got the feeling they'd probably want something bigger than that...

Glancing out the window, she grins a little and adds something.]

Also it's snowing. Makes me think of the first time I ever saw it. It was really cold then, wasn't it, Lea? Especially when you and me and Roxas had to stay the night there.

[She's teasing. She's teasing him and she starts giggling as the feed shuts off.]

[This face forever.]

If I recall correctly--and I usually do--you two were cold and decided it would be good times to leech body heat. [He harrumphs and folds his arms at her.] Should I go invest in some sleeping bags?

[...and after snickering at that last part:] I'm not sure, but--

Dare I ask what happened? Snow's common in mine and Terra's home world during the winter months, so we were always prepared.

[Xion giggles] You were the one who let us!

[And encouraged it!

Her face falls a moment later though as he mentions the sleeping bags.]

Maybe... we might have more room on the floor... That's why I'm asking about bigger apartments...

[She and Roxas have been doing okay on the bed but she didn't like having to leave Lea in the corner, and trying to figure out how to keep everybody together was getting difficult]

Well... We'd never really been that cold before, and all we really had was the clothes we had and our coats. We'd just come from Neverland, which was really different...

[And Aqua had been there, hadn't she? Or at least Ventus had - Peter Pan had thought Roxas was him when they'd first seen her friend.]

Lea's really warm, and he's good with fire so he let us sleep next to him.

[XION STAHP YOU'RE MAKING HIM SOUND LIKE A NICE GUY OR SOMETHING OH GOD SAHJDGCKADF]

W-well it wasn't like I had much of a choice! [Harrumph.] I wasn't about to carry a couple of half-pint-cicles around until you thawed out, sheesh.

[NOPE, SORRY AXEL SHE D'AWWED AT THE CUTE....and proceeded to giggle at your reaction.]

[Okay, ~~Axel~~ Lea... two can play at this game.]

I don't know... Everyone has a soft spot, Lea. Heehee... It sounds similar to Ven's first time in snow, too.

'Let' is a very strong word. [Nope, not taking ownership for this one nope.

[He waves a hand then.]

Look, you don't have to worry about me; the floor is comfier than those awful beds in Never Was anyway, and certainly a lot better than the snowy rock floor of a cave. Chances are the central heat in these apartments is a little more effective than anything we could have rigged up in that cave, so it's not a big deal.

You and Roxas just keep the bed, there's room for the two of you munchkins up there and that's what matters.

Well... yeah but...

[Xion bit her lip]

What about Axel, and Sora? [She hesitates then adds] And Riku and Aqua and the others? I just... I guess I just feel like we should stick together.

[Yep, you got it right in one Aqua, which is why Xion is still giggling

Still, that last big piques her interest]

What happened?

[He rubs his chin and 'hmm's softly.]

Guess I hadn't really thought of that. [He always wanted someplace the three of them could all hang out together, but he hadn't really expected the three to become half a dozen or more.]

Neighbors isn't sufficient? I mean, don't get me wrong, I guess I'm not opposed to the idea of more roommates--they're all decent people, and it'd be good to... keep an eye on some of them. [COUGH*XEHANORT*COUGH] But I hadn't really considered everyone under the same roof.

[Nope no soft spot here you shut your mouth Lea has no idea what you're talking about. He's just gonna sulk and eavesdrop on the rest of the conversation now.]

The snow's pretty neat, huh? I've seen it on other worlds before, but I don't think I really had much time to pay attention then.

[Of course, by "pretty neat" he means "WOAH THIS IS AWESOME", though you can probably hear the difference in his tone.]

And about that bigger apartment...man, I have no idea how. I guess we need enough munny, right?

[Or, well, that thing that they use here that isn't munny. Details.]

[Sure you don't, Lea.

Suddenly, there's a Terra in this video conversation. With a grin on his face that looks less like a grin and more like a teasing smirk.

He's never one to pass up teasing his little bro.] He ran out to see what all that 'white stuff' was without a coat or a scarf. We went after him, but he'd slipped on a bit of ice and fell into a thick pile of the stuff.

[There's a bit of a laugh after relaying that.] He didn't stop shivering until we got him back to the castle. He made sure to wear a coat after that.

[She smiles fondly at the memory.] Mm... and Master wouldn't let him hear the end of it, even if we decided to show mercy.

[Spoilers: They didn't.]

I guess that could work, but... We're all on different floors. Some of us are over in the other apartment building. It's... it's not too far, I guess, but...

[It's still pretty spread out.]

If there was some way to just... move all our rooms together, I guess. Like back home.

[Home being Disney Castle, where the three of them had separate rooms, sure, but they were all right next to each other.]

[The second threadjack by Terra startles Xion, but she takes it in stride, even laughs at the story.]

I remember Roxas poking it with his foot. The snow.

[Xion was about to speculate on how much they'd really eased up - if Aqua and Terra were anything like she and Roxas and Axel were there'd probably been some teasing for a while - but then Aqua said something that made her pause.]

Master?

[Right... Mickey'd had Master Yen Sid, didn't he?]

You guys had a master like Mickey did?

[It's amazing how a simple, innocent question can be a mood breaker. Terra's expression goes through several different ones in a short amount of time; mild surprise, sadness, guilt, and then finally a small smile that doesn't reach his eyes.] Yeah. Master Eraqus found me and took me in when I was little. Aqua was taken in not long after that. He taught us everything we know about the Keyblade, and our duty as Keybearers.

[The sadness becomes a little more pronounced, but he's trying to hide it the best he can. Focusing more on the better memories helps a bit.] He had his faults like everyone does, but... I know neither Aqua, Ven, or I would be the Keybearers we are without him.

[Hell, he knows he wouldn't be the person he is without Master guiding him.

For a second, he feels an odd surge of both guilt and pride that he knows isn't from him. Before he can question it, those feelings are gone as if they had never been there, leaving him with only his own emotions.

What the hell had that been?]

Seeing snow for the first time is really something, if you're from a world without it. Same with rain. Or the ground if you spent your childhood in space, now that I think about it.

[Meetra is, herself, sipping some instant cocoa and enjoying the snowfall from three floors up.]

I think there are plenty of apartments available, but you'd need to have some kind of income. I checked, and the government stipend wouldn't nearly cover anywhere liveable.

[Have a chuckle and a grin.]

I think that's a story I need to hear.

[To get some teasing material himself, possibly. Among other things.]

[Oh Sora... Xion smiles a little awkwardly.]

Yeah... It's not everywhere I know. I guess it's sort of neat that this world is one that can get it sometimes and not have it others.

[She'd been to a few worlds like that - London, and Christmas Town, for instance - but more often than not a lot of the worlds seemed to either have snow or not.

She giggles at the money/munny mixup]

I actually have a job here [Which he knows, since he found her there] But I don't think it'll be enough by itself.

Yeah... It's... it's sort of like that with a lot of things, I guess. The worlds are all really different back home. Whenever I'd go to a new world, there'd be so many different things there that I'd never really seen before.

Like... the first world I can really remember was always dark, and had a lot of rain. But the second... Hold on...

[She fiddles around for a moment with the network and then is able to use the shared info to send a few pictures of Twilight Town. It's easier to show - Twilight Town was... just hard to describe in words.

That done, she adds, a little sheepishly (considering she... rather got off the topic a bit, or at least it feels like it)]

I did get a job, but... I'm just not sure it'll be enough. I'll probably have to see if the others can get jobs too...

[Considering there's five of them at least.]

[Xion giggles a little sheepishly. It was a story that the Riku in her universe had heard at least once, but she didn't mind telling it again]

Um... have you ever been to The Land of Dragons?

That world is beautiful. I can't see I've seen architecture like that anywhere.

And I think it really depends on how much space you need. If you just want to go up to two bedrooms, it's one thing, but space here seems almost as valuable as on Coruscant.
