❃ she wonders if his hair is soft or spiky hehe

Roxas was sat on the balcony of the Tower, his legs dangling over the edge as his Ocean blue eyes stared out towards the towns forver sunset, it was a first for him, not being surrounded by Xion or Axel — Heck, it even surprised himself that he didn't have any ice-cream with him since it was his usual go to snack. The sun-kissed blond was lost within his thoughts, so much was happening and everything was trying to keep up that he hadn't even noticed anyone coming towards him, that was broken when he felt contact with his hair. Roxas felt the fingertips run through his hair, even though his hair was spikey and looked like it could cut someone, it was actually rather soft and easy to run through. The Nobody would glance up a bit startled and was clearly about to have a go at whoever decided to put their hand through his hair but he froze upon seeing that it was none other than Xion herself; something that brought a smile upon his lip. Yet he remained silent, actually enjoying the sensation of her touch --- Only a fair few would he even let do something like this....And she was one of them.

".......I   wonder.....   what   strawberry   ice   cream   tastes   like?   Or...   chocolate?   ....   I   see...   a   melon   flavor   too!"   

she's   musing   to   herself   ....   would   it   be   a   betrayal   to   try   something   other   than   sea-salt?

[duskled]

“ I heard the mention of ice-creammmm” 

Roxas couldn't help but bring a smile towards his face as he drapped an arm over Xion's shoulder. “ How about we both go try these new flavours?”

" …I think storks give them up…”

"  Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuttttttttttttt, I think that might be a question for Axel”

[xi0v]

Her   head   cocked   to   the   side,   his   answer   clearly   only   confusing   Xion   further.   "Storks?   Where'd   you   hear   that,   Roxas?"   What   even   was   a   stork?

"Mmm...   yeah,   maybe   you're   right.   Axel   seems   to   know   a   lot.."

@duskled says: 025, an empty balcony while a party goes on inside. - To Sora ( setting prompts )

☄. *. ⋆ ┈┈┈ Sora has been waiting for this exact night for at least a couple months--he's probably chattered about it endlessly to anyone that might seem at all interested and he's dreamt of it a few times this last week... a party at Disney Castle! King Mickey had proposed such an event, in honor of all the wonderful and courageous work Sora and his friends have done over countless worlds--and Sora, of course, wholeheartedly agreed they all needed a proper party to enjoy! Thus, Sora couldn't quite wipe away the endearing smile that popped over his bright features whenever he merely thought about the party and what the King might have in store for them...

And yet--as has quite often been the case throughout his life--no one else seemed nearly as excited as he was! It truly baffled Sora how, whenever he would broach the topic about the celebration, all his friends had appeared baffled and bemused by the prospect as a whole... as if they had forgotten altogether they were still kids at the end of this and they deserved to have fun sometimes too...

( In a way, it made Sora very sad... but he didn't tell them that. He'd merely smile just a little bit wider and wave away the subject, as if he was the silly one for feeling too excitable about a big party in the first place. )

However, right now, the party is happening all around him--Sora is in a large room near entirely composed of bright, shining marble and gilded points of interest, such as the golden throne on the far wall of the room and the glittering paintings strewn neatly and sparsely about the space... round tables donned with silk covers of shifting colors are laden with sweets and snacks and delicious entrees from all over the worlds--the very best from each. Sora's many friends mill around him smiling and talking to each other happily... Sora just can't stop smiling (or eating whatever treat glosses under his seeking fingers)...

Though, for awhile, Sora curiously presses himself against a wall and nibbles on salty, crunchy chips and candy and tarts and he just stands there--he watches all his friends being so happy with this sweet, forlorn smile on his face... he watches them and merely breathes in their joy and listens to their kind laughs... and for just a moment he relishes everything that brought him to this single, precious night...

Maybe all the pain they've endured had to happen... or else they never would have found each other. Does that make it... worth it...?

Sora thinks... maybe this is worth everything...

But then his heart twinges in an aching way, which drags his blue eyes from combing the vast room in front of him to go skirting over to the open doors leading to a swath of balcony outside... he sees Roxas just slipping out into that starry darkness...

He's always... trying to get away from me, isn't he...? Sora thinks suddenly, profoundly. Why else would Roxas seek somewhere alone than surrounded by all his friends like this...?

Sora has the feeling... Roxas is running from something. The brunette keeps wishing Roxas would just tell him what that might be. Even if he has to scream it at him--Sora hates the calm before the storm. Because he knows it's coming, he just lacks the knowledge as it when it's going to strike him down.

It's a breathless, sinking emotion that ties his heart into knots all the time.

( Maybe... Roxas isn't the only one of my friends struggling against this loneliness and expectation... ' But how do I spare them--? Is there anything else I can do now...? Even if I say I'm sorry for things out of my control--that could never be enough. I know that. ' )

Yet, even so, Sora is smacking his plate of little treats down onto the nearest table (popping in one last tart into his mouth as he does so, however) and then he's following his Nobody quickly out into the darkness--because, yes, Sora has always feared the calm before the storm...

But that doesn't mean he has any less resolve to face the thunder and lightning when it does choose to smite him.

Thus, Sora finds himself rather quickly among the fresh, crisp air of the night. Roxas is hunched over an intricate stone balcony, staring up at the twinkling stars far above him. Sora takes a small inhale of breath, fixes a smile onto his soft face, and approaches the railing so that he can stare out this pretty, whimsical world spread out beneath him, full of sparkling lights gurgling among cheerful homes...

Finally, after a strange silence settles between them Sora can't quite discern, the Keyblade Wielder is asking quietly, though kindly, "You feelin' cooped up in there or somethin'...?"

Another minute or so passes between them that Sora hates--no, he despises this quiet, it sort of makes him want to scream in a way few things ever have--and yet he is poised there among the stone and stars and sweet lights of homes he'll never know, not really... not in a way he used to, anyway...

Sora turns away from those lights and stars. He rests his elbows over the generous, intricate barrier, and he stares back into the party roiling on inside the bright warmth of laughter and friends...

"Ya know..." Sora says suddenly, far more quietly than any of his usual bubbling musings--his tone is a little too somber, a little too soft. "I never thanked you for everything, not really..."

Sora chuckles brightly then, in a deceitful way truly--because he isn't really that happy, but he thinks that's the expectation his friends have of him. Like a strange habit he knows clearly exists, yet he refuses to try to break.

"I guess I might have said thanks before, when we were fighting and... I didn't really know you that well, not like this," and here Sora tosses him a more sincere smile--still soft, but there's that glinting joy within it now too. "But yeah, I finally know what I'm actually supposed to say thanks for... if that makes sense?"

His expression becomes puzzled as he tries to gauge how successfully his vague point is coming across to his Nobody... after a moment and with a gentle shake of his head, Sora presses on.

"I gotta thank you... for all of this," Sora says with a heavy dose of awe in his tone. He stares at Roxas and chuckles again, breathlessly, as if he really does admire the resolute soul just beside him here. "If it wasn't for you... we all couldn't be together like this. You're a big part of all this too, ever since... ever since that day in Hollow Bastion. If you didn't help me all those times after and... and even before... I wouldn't get to enjoy this party with all my friends. You're one of my friends too... you know that, right?"

Sora steps away from the barrier, staring at Roxas with that same watery smile over his lips.

"So... shouldn't we take this time to enjoy all the great things you and everyone helped make happen? It's not... it's not always pain and bad stuff in this life. I mean... good things can always happen too, no matter how awful it all gets. I still believe that, Roxas. I have to."

[duskled]

How often had Roxas heard Sora chatter away about a party at The King’s castle? It felt like it had been none-stop talking from his Somebody, but it wasn’t something he ever diminished or put down; he could always tell how excited and pumped up the brunet was for such a thing —- Alongside it being with all of his friends. The sun-kissed blond teenager-sized Nobody was wearing his usual attire of black troussers and a black vest top with a black and white checkered jacket; did he really have any other clothing options? Something he felt like he should really look into now that he was free. His ocean blue eyes that mirrored that of Sora’s gazed around the vast room that they were having the party in; taking note of the large throne at the end, the many platters of food and drink that was vastly available as if there was no end towards it. Despite Roxas taking a few snacks, mostly more of the salted variety, he never joined in the dancing and conversing with others. He didn’t really know how to explain it but he felt like he didn’t belong, he wasn’t really a ‘people person’ like Sora was, he preferred his close nit group and being alone sometimes that when he was crowded around at places with vast amount of people he would go somewhere more…Reclusive. Thus he moved off through a pair of double glass paned doors that lead out onto the balcony, his eyes glancing up towards the night sky where stars twinkled and glistened within the darkness. A soft smile forming across his youthful face as he most would call it a ‘twin connection’, but he knew straight away as to who’s  footsteps he had heard trail behind him, his eyes soon glancing towards the side as the very person himself stood beside him……Sora.

Silence remained between the pair whilst the stood out within the cold night air compared to the warmth that was within Disney Castle and it’s halls. When he was asked the question about whether he was feeling cooped up in there, the corners of his lips just turned into a light smirk as he remained leaning against the railing of the balcony, his eyes returning their gaze back to the night sky, not giving Sora a direct answer to the question that was being asked just yet. Roxas could tell that the silence was absolutely killing the very talkative brunet, his eyes soon returning towards the other when Sora started to speak, talking about thanking him? This made the blond give the brunet a rather puzzled look, his lips were about to part as if he wanted to interrupt Sora, but he allowed the other to continue on. Watching as he began to move away from the barrier, he thought that Sora was about to cry if he continued talking about thanking him. “There’s nothing to thank me for, if anything, it’s us that should be thanking you for everything you’ve done. None of us would have been if here if it wasn’t for you Sora, it’s not me or anyone else that you should be thanking” Roxas paused as he let out a sigh before pushing himself off of the railing as he started to walk towards Sora, placing a soft but rather firm hand on top of Sora’s head before ruffling the brown spikes. “If it wasn’t for the sacrifices you made, your persistent looking ahead to the future, your unbending need to help everyone else…..” Roxas paused as there looked to be a glint of sadness before he continued talking “ You don’t need to believe in anything because you ARE the good thing, you just need to stop trying to be the only pillar and rely on us more to be pillars for you” Roxas finished as he removed his hand from Sora’s head after ruffling it another time as he placed the hand ontop of Sora’s shoulder as he gave him a smile that mirrored Sora’s exactly. “Also! To answer your question from earlier; I’m not one for big parties with….So many lively people, it’s just not my…Jam? I think I’m using that right?” he muttered the last part towards himself as he clearly pondered but then shook his head “I’d rather spend my time with a small group of people than with such a large bundle of energy and trust me Sora, your energy might aswell be the entire planet” Roxas let out a light chuckle as he gave a smile towards his Somebody.

"Now let's get back to the party main character! Can't have you missing out on all the fun right?!" Roxas cheered, clearly putting it on for Sora, albeit there being a hint of realness being there as he moved and tugged Sora back into the Hall

[duskled]

.Open Starter; Roxas' ocean blue eyes were closed, the sun-kissed blond teen was sat on the floor whilst propped up against a wall within Twilight Town, he had a few cuts and grazes across his hands and face ---- To most others it looked like he had been roughed up. The young nobody had clearly fallen asleep from exhaustion as he sat in an unfamiliar location to is often places to be found, despite the blond looking beaten up; his face was soft and looked to be at peace as he breathed softly with the sun in it's permanent state of setting. Roxas was well known for coming back to Twilight Town to 'cool off' or 'wind down' but this seemed different as he was never this roughed up.
