Hmmm. Nah. Trust me, it'd be a lot sadder if we weren't friends.

[ because his only friend his age is worse anyway ]

[nonbelligerent]

Well, it's good that you're not alone.

[a pause.]

They're the girls here, right? Xion and Namine.

[given the similarities in their and axel's scrolls...]

[leaberator]

They're two of 'em, yeah. [ well, naminé is a bit #complicated, but whatever ] Did you talk to them?

[ he knows there are similarities in their scrolls, but he is ... so used to people being unobservant ]

[nonbelligerent]

I've spoken to Xion.

[but not namine because francy is a coward who won't tag me with both characters]

[leaberator]

[ you have to force her by tagging her yourself ]

Yeah? What about?

[ he's just ... curious ... ]

[nonbelligerent]

We were observing the river lanterns together.

[jan is delaying because that thread is like only two comments long]

[leaberator]

Huh. [ yeah, that makes sense. xion does like pretty stuff. ] But yeah, I know the two of them from back home.

[ and no one else, clearly ]

[nonbelligerent]

Kaoru did mention that there was a small group of people from the same world. I assume he meant you guys, then.

[leaberator]

Prolly. He was asking to see if anyone knew each other back when we first spoke. [ he rubs the back of his neck ] I'm not sure why we all showed up.

[nonbelligerent]

Does it worry you? Or are you glad for it?

[leaberator]

Well... making it either or's kind of unfair. I'm not gonna say it ain't nice to have familiar faces, but I don't exactly like them being stuck here, either.

[ not to mention the time shenanigans or ??? saix?? , but he isn't even sure how to begin saying anything about that ]

[nonbelligerent]

That's fair. All you can do now is make sure they're safe.

[leaberator]

Yeah. [ he shrugs grandly ] Luckily for us the biggest danger right now is... what, a couple o' sharks in the ocean and a potentially active volcano? So nothing too dangerous.

[nonbelligerent]

It'd be nice if it could stay that way.

[use your powers of rap to quell the volcano axel]

[leaberator]

Whaaaat, you're telling me you got a feeling of impending doom lurking around just because of the ominous powers and darkness lurking about or how they said we're here to "participate" like it's a game? No way. It'll stay that easy forever.

[ he isn't rapping but he is laying it on thick ]

[nonbelligerent]

[he smiles, his expression dry.]

And yet we're going to be thrown a festival first, apparently. "Make merry and get to know one another better", as Lune told me.

[bonding before doom]

[leaberator]

Yeah, I heard about that one. At least it explains the music going on, but...

[ Is This Really The Time ]

[nonbelligerent]

Well, at least it should be harmless, so if it's going to happen, there's probably no point in fighting it.

[leaberator]

Hey, I'm not against a little celebration. It might even be fun. If we ignore the shoe waitin' to drop and all that.

[nonbelligerent]

Agreed. In any case, I did tell Lune I'd play along if he thought it'd make people feel better.

I wouldn't be surprised if he's hoping you'll be one of the moodmakers.

[leaberator]

[ huh ]

Me?

[ why is he surprised by this. he's a clown ]

[nonbelligerent]

You.

[leaberator]

[ a Look. bitch don't be cute ]

Why do you think that?

[nonbelligerent]

You're outgoing with no issue in approaching people, and you go at your own pace.

[also clown]

[leaberator]

[ well, he's not wrong, but... for some reason, it's kinda embarrassing to hear it said out loud as an alright thing? ]

Yeah, I guess. You get all that from a few conversations?
