Welcome to Gaia! ::

(Xion huh? now that could make the rp become pretty interesting. poor Sora ain't gonna be whole now! xp )

Lakayna giggled at Axel's attepmted to put the hat on. It really didn't suit him at all. She shook her head. "Honestly, you look better without one," she replied, "Hang on a sec." The dragon-girl came right up in front of Axel, reached up. and stole the hat off his head. Taking it, she turned back to the person at the prize stand beside the game she'd just owon and exchanged it for a bright red bandana. She walked the few paces back to Axel and held it out to him.

"Try this instead, but not around you're head," she offered, "Try putting it around your neck, or even tying it around your upper arm. I bet that'd look really neat." While waiting for Axel to either accept or reject it, Lakayna's gaze andered to the sky. The sun was high now, past the halfway mark. "Wow. I can't believe it's already after noon," she remarked.

Lakayna's stomach gurgled out of hunger, and she blushed red out of embarassment. "Guess I'm getting hungry," she said sheepishly, "Wanna go get something for lunch before you choose the next thing to do? Maybe we'll find some of the others and we can eat with them."

(we should have them head over towards namine, riku, and xion. that would be interesting.)

"Sure," he chuckled after rolling up the bandana and wrapped it stylishly around his arm. He thought it looked kinda cool. He wouldn't mind wearing this on a regular basis. He only just noticed that he was getting hungry too. The tall redhead walked with Lakayna, soon seeing Riku speaking to a girl. "Hey Riku!" he exclaimed, walking over towards him. "Having fun yet?" he asked and looked at the black haired girl. He smiled at her. "New friend?" he asked, underlying a playfully accusing tone.

Roxas quickly turned around when he heard his name being called. "Namine!" he exclaimed, walking up to greet her and hugged her back. He had to admit, it was good to see her again. He chuckled a bit when she explained how she didn't want to leave without him, but he had slept in. "Yeah, guess I slept through my alarm," He grinned. "Are you out here with anyone?" he asked, though he hoped that she would say no. At the moment, he would like nothing more than to spend the afternoon with Kairi's Nobody.

((I'm waiting on Marth to post as Alexander before I go as Hikari.))

Naminé couldn't help but roll her eyes when Roxas said that he must've slept though his alarm. The girl gave a fake sigh and looked up at the spiky blond Nobody, her full lips pulled up in a smile. "That sounds like you." The girl teased with a giggle. "Sleeping through your alarm, I mean." She clarified with a laugh. It was so easy to be herself with Roxas. Maybe because he'd been the only member of the Organization to accept her. Well, Marluxia had but... well he'd acted more like he'd owned her. Roxas was someone she could rely on and not have to worry about acting shy around.

She was about to apologize again for leaving him, for she had wanted to wait, but he spoke first, asking her if she was out with anyone. Immidietely, she turned sheepish and lowered her eyes to the ground. She didn't know how Roxas would deal when he learned what was really going on with her and Riku. When he found out she and the silvernette were dating. "Well, uhm... yeah." Naminé replied in a quiet murmur. [color#3399FF]"I'm here with Riku..." The teen said softly, before lifting her gaze to look up at Roxas. The angelic Nobody's look was a mixture of apology and shyness. "But I really, really, really want to hang out with you, too, Roxas." Naminé admitted to him, her tone nothing but sincere. He was her best friend after all.

"I know! Come hang out with us!" The girl said, brightening at the thought of hanging out with both Riku and Roxas. She really was oblivous to the tension between the two. Taking Roxas' hand, the petite blonde began to pull him over towars the table where she'd left Riku... and then she suddenly stopped. Where... had he gone? Naminé couldn't see him. Hadn't he been right there? The girl looked around but didn't the silvernette. Turning back to Roxas, the girl frowned. "... I... don't know where he went," she admitted quietly, wondering where on earth he could've run off to. While she was thikning about it, she forgot to take her hand from his, not noticing that she was still holding his hand.

Hikari looked back at Alexander when he warned her to go easy on her opponent and to make sure she won. "Please. I was trained by your father himself. I'm no pushover," she said cooly and took the Struggle bat from the commentator, looking at her opponent as she raised it and waited for the signal. There was something familiar about her. But before she could think twice about it, the bell signaled the start of the match. The figure lunged at her, swinging her bat. Hikari was just able to defend herself, let alone attack. While she was trained by the leader of Organization XIII, much of her strength had disappeared when her heart was released from the darkness.

Roxas couldn't quite understand why Namine suddenly became so mousy when she answered that she was at the fair with Riku. Surely there wasn't anything between them beyond friendship, right? When she took his hand, he followed her to an empty table. "Well I'd like to hang out with you too," he said, then heard her say that she didn't know where he went. He shrugged, wanting to act casual. "Probably went to the bathroom or something," he replied. He noticed that she was still holding his hand, but he didn't pull away. He didn't mind it really.

Axel looked a little confused. He remembered something about Vexen making something back in Castle Oblivion, but his memories were erased past that. "Xion, huh? Well I'll definitely get it memorized," he said with a grin.
((Bwaha let the teen angst love triangle begin!! Also Raspberry, if you've played 358/2 days, Axel's and Roxas' memories of Xion was faded until it went away completely with Xion's death, so neither one of them would remember her.))

Naminé looked upat Roxas and nodded. "Yeah. I'm sure that's it." She said, attempting to remain upbeat but it was clear by her weak tone that she was feeling a bit dejected. The angelic Nobody attempted a faint smlie up at her best friend and gave a light shrug. One of her hands was still in his but honestly, she hadn't realizedit yet. Her other arm was clutching the stuffed prize Riku had won for her, tight to her chest. "Well...I'd say we should wait for him... but... well, you just got here and haven't done anything yet... so..." The teen trailed off, knowing Roxas would pick up on what she was saying. Naminé wondered if Riku had dissapeared off to smoke again, but if he did, why hadn't he told her? Telling her would be better than just dissapearing like he'd had.

Sighing, the teen lifted her eyes from the ground - which was where her gaze slid when she'd been thinking - and back up to Roxas, waiting for his response. The teen was ready to agree with anything he wanted to do. And besides, she was sure Riku would understand that she was just haning out with her best friend, and he surely wouldn't get too mad at her.

OutOfCookies: Yay! Love triangle! Lol. Poor Nami is so oblivious. This is going to be fun.

Oh Oh See: No! it's okay Riku! you're fine! i already knew that Xion dies and everything. i read up since I haven't played in awhile. My sister took her DS back but you didn't spoil anything, just fiulled in some gaps, you're fine!

Riku looked over at Axel with narrowed eyes when he asked about Naminé. Riku just wanted to kill something. Maybe smoking would help but he jkust had one not five minutes ago. But with Roxas and Xion it was probably understandable. "Yes, she should be, but she's not. because she went off to talk to Rox~as," Riku hissed. The silvernette glanced back at the two as Roxas suggested a place, pointing. House of Mirros, check. he noted.

Xion was standing silently, staring at her feet. She was more confused than before now. She didn't understand why she was here. And Axel didn't remember her. Why? It was too confusing. She looked up at the red head when he mentioned Naminé. She remembered the Nobody, right?
