WEEK 0, MONDAY

[leaberator]

[ hey, so, if Emma was looking for some kinda douchebag named Axel for some reason, she will be able to find him currently hanging out near the flower garden, taking a little bit of a snooze with his arms crossed behind his head.

he could've done this literally anywhere else, but i guess he's here now. doing this. ]

[foodbin]

[there are so many ways to wake him up

but she’s nudging him with her foot.]

[leaberator]

[ that's fine he's just gonna kind of sit up in a jump--]

Wh-- Emma, geesh, it's just you.

[ he heaves a sigh ]

Warn a guy, next time.

[ she literally only nudged him ]

[foodbin]

How much more gently do you want me to wake you up?

[She's sitting down next to him, though.]</small

[leaberator]

Words are fine. I'm not that heavy a sleeper.

[ probably. ]

[foodbin]

I guess we'll find out next time.

[why is she assuming that there's going to be a next time--]

Did you not sleep last night? I mean, lots to think about. Can't say I'd blame you.

[leaberator]

Hmm... Well, sure, that was part of it, too. But honestly? Sleeping's just my favorite way to pass the time.

[ he's lazy. ]

[foodbin]

[A small laugh.]

Careful. I might make you seem sad again if you say things like that.

[leaberator]

Hey, that ain't sad. Can't a guy want to relax from time to time?

[ but it's good-natured complaining, because we're not acknowledging the probably depression ]

[foodbin]

Whatever helps you sleep... any time, apparently.

[Anyways.]

So. What do you make of all this?

[leaberator]

[ he scratches the back of his neck with a sigh ]

... Honestly? It's somehow both less and more dramatic than I thought it was gonna be. "Dragged here to stop the heat death of the universe by darkness" was not in my top ten possibilities.

[foodbin]

Well, you can't say that without giving me what your top ten was.

[it's unclear if she's joking,]

[leaberator]

Well, I can tell ya at least one of 'em included us being stuck in a computer simulation.

[ how is that any less stupid, he does not say. ]

But all speculations aside... It's kinda worrying that even the guys overseeing us don't seem to have any clue what's really going on.

[foodbin]

Come on. That'd be even worse than waking up and realizing, oh! This was all a dream!

[She looks towards the ground, though, as she answers.]

I don't know. What if they know more than they're saying?

[leaberator]

That was also up there.

[ listen. both have happened in kingdom hearts lore, let him live. he frowns a bit at that, lifting a hand to rest his chin against ]

I thought about it. But... I didn't get a chance to talk to Lune, but Sol seemed honest enough. I can't figure out what they'd get from not giving us info at this stage, anyway, if what they're saying is true.

[foodbin]

I mean, depending on how unpleasant the truth is, they could always be trying to avoid some of us trying to kick their asses. Did you notice that someone pulled a sword on one of them?

[She sighs.]

It's hard to know whether or not someone's honest within a conversation.

[leaberator]

How could I miss it?

[ he looks and feels even more tired just thinking about it ]

It'd prolly be easier if we could see their faces. [ it's mild and joking, though half the joke is that he's spent way too long with people who hide their faces to be serious ] Well, they said we'd see them again. Maybe if we continue prodding, we'll get something useful out of them.

[foodbin]

Yeah. I for one am fully prepared to be as obnoxious as necessary until we get somewhere.

[Maybe she shouldn't look happy about that, but.]

[leaberator]

[ oh, relatable? he gives out a short laugh ]

Yeah, see? That's the spirit. Just annoy them into givin' us answers.

[foodbin]

Seems like a flawless strategy to me. Besides, they seem... Well, not harmless, but at least like they aren't going to do anything to us right now.

[leaberator]

Yeah. Unless you try an' stick a sword in one of 'em.

[ why is kara ]

[foodbin]

Yeah, I think it's safe to say that's not at the top of my to do list.

[stares into the middle distance]

[leaberator]

Oh, good. That makes me feel a lot safer. You look like you'd be dangerous with a sword.

[foodbin]

[She laughs, surprised, before shaking her head.]

Watch out, there's an armory here. I might go rogue.

[leaberator]

Aw, man. Can't believe I'm gonna hafta keep a close eye on the armory so I know when to hide.
