"Well you should try swimming, you have control over your power. You could probably do it and have a lot of fun too!" Sora gave Larxene the most sincere of smiles.
Sora listened as Larxene listed off the traits of the place she'd like to go to. "That sounds really nice Larxene...I bet we could find that somewhere. Maybe we could go looking for that sometime?"

Larxene smiled. "Well, that'd be fun. But we'll need to figure out how to get out of this castle first. I would like to go swimming though. Splashing around seems like it'd be fun. You know, minus the electrocution bit. Though ... well, maybe a little shock wouldn't be so bad. I guess it's a good thing I met you. Seems like anywhere I'd want to go, you've probably been somewhere like it, huh?"

"Yup! I've been a lot of place! I could probably stumble onto anything with my luck." Sora thought for a minute. "Wait, you don't know how to get out of the castle? I can get you out. I mean, I got in here just by wandering around, I'm sure I could get out!" Sora smiled, it seemed like he had more to offer Larxene then he thought. "But...having a map might help, just a bit atleast." He laughed loudly expecting Larxene to do the same.

Larxene laughed in return. "Actually, I'm not sure how I got into the castle, so I'm not sure I could find my way out. I really just remember kind of ... falling and then hitting the ground. One of the first rooms I found was this place," she said, waving a paw around. "As much as I trust you, I'm thinking it might help to find a map. Or at least wander around a bit more. It might be easier with two of us. Or more fun, anyway. Wandering around by myself was just dull."

Sora nodded in anunderstanding way. "Maps are always good. The cricket always made us maps of places we had been, and sometimes we found them in big treasure chests! I liked opening the chests, that was probably one of my favorite parts of the adventures."
Sora moved forward a bit towards the bookshelfs and plucked out a large book, relativly easily. "See, that's how it's done!" He said, half expecting to get zapped of clunked on the head.

Larxene stuck her tongue out and her fingers crackled as she sent a little shock flying toward Sora's backside. "Wise guy. Shame we don't have a cricket to do the same for us now," she giggled, flipping the pages of her book again. "Does that one have maps in it?"

Sora yipped as the jolt connected. "Meanie!" He laughed a little, he deserved it. Sora then turned his attention to the book and opened it up. "I think we found it Larxene! And look-" Sora pointed at a point on the map that was green. "I think I found a starting point to find the place you'd like to go!"

Larxene shifted to lean toward Sora and look in the book. She tilted her head slightly (bringing it closer to him in the process, though that wasn't obviously her intent). "That's a map of here?" She blinked. "What's the green?" Apparently the girl hadn't spent a lot of time looking at maps.

Sora blushed as Larxene got closer to him. Of course Sora didn't say anything about it, he enojyed it. Sora broke his little silence with a little laugh. "Larxene the green stuff is trees and junk like that!" Sora moved his finger to the big white shape. "And that's where we are. I bet the other pages in this book show more details. With this we can tell where we are going!"

"Oooh, I see. Wow, so if we left here, that'd tell us where we were going? How do you know where you are on the green, though?" She leaned over a bit further. She didn't notice she was making Sora uncomfortable, or, if she did, she was doing it on purpose. "That can't represent every tree out there."

Sora let out a slight whine at the closeness of Larxene. She was reaaaaally close. They had hugged before, but that was different. Sora's heart was pounding and his eyes went wide. "T-there are maps in here with more detail I think! That'd tell us w-where we are a-and stuff...eh-heh." Sora started to laugh nervously. Come on Sora, don't go all loopy on her, you're already loopy enough as it is! Focus! Get it together...Get it together...Get it together...

Larxene's head swivled to look up at him as he spoke. He was having an awful lot of trouble talking all of a sudden. Oddly enough this didn't provoke the girl to move back at all, rather staring at him as though he'd fallen ill. "Are you okay? You look a little flushed. Or startled. Or something."

Sora's eyes grew wider as Larxene looked at him. "I-I...I'm ok...I just...it's um..." Sora laughed trying to distract her a bit, of course that wouldn't work. Sora gulped. What was he going to say? This was worse then the time he was eaten by the whale. There was only one thing to do, running couldn't save him...besides Larxene would fall over, and that would be very very bad. "LarxeneIlikeyou." He just blurted it out. He felt better... There I said it...wait...OH MY GOD I JUST SAID THAT?! ...or not.

Larxene looked even more puzzled by this. "Well I ... I guess I like you too." She tilted her head slightly. "Isn't that key to the whole 'being friends' thing? I mean, I couldn't be friends with someone I didn't like, right?"

Sora blinked. "Oh..." This was upsetting, but Sora put up a good front for Larxene. "Yeah you're right. Friends should like friends." He smiled. But on the inside, he was still upset. I knew I shouldn't have said anything, besides her liking me doesn't make sense anyways. I'm too much of a goof. Sora sighed.
There was a long pause and then Sora realized something. No! This happened before! I can't think like this, last time I did I lost my heart...I can't lose myself again... Sora looked at Larxene. "No Larxene...I -really- like you...I mean...I think...um..." Sora hung his head...he couldn't say it.
