catchall for saïx

WEEK 0, MONDAY

[leaberator]

[ he hasn't seen him around, but he's seen the scroll, and just that's been enough to put Lea on edge all weekend. It was one thing for Xion and Naminé to be from the past (the how still escapes him, but it wouldn't be the first instance of time travel he witnessed), but... Isa... Saïx...

Which is why, on Monday, he decides that if the man won't come to him, he'll simply have to find him himself. There aren't that many places for him to hide, and this isn't Lea's first time tracking someone who didn't want to be found.

The armoury isn't quite where he expected to find him, and the thought makes him frown for a second. He makes sure to lean against the door before he announces his presence, barring any potential escape. ]

Hey, Isa.

[ ... of course, with all that said and done, Lea has no idea what to say. If he hasn't come after him yet, then Isa's at least not from when he was trying to hunt him down-- but then what? Back in their regular Organization days? Later?

he probably should've thought this through a little more ]

fuck u for that pic

[moonprisonpower]

[ yeah, saix isn't an idiot. well, he is an idiot, but not when it comes to making observations. so, naturally, he's spent the first while making observations -- silently taking note of everything, seeing where he stands. he saw lea, of course, but far be it from saix to actually fucking talk to him like a normal person. like, without making fun of him or expositioning. not a fucking chance. ]

Lea.

[ what's up boo. he was just looking at weapons, since he's carrying a giant fucking banana. ]

Shouldn't you be out with your friends?

[ for once, he's not bitter. still an asshole, though!! ]

<3

[leaberator]

[ he has to heave a long sigh to stop himself from reflexively getting annoyed at that, even though. he is still mildly annoyed at it. he didn't really miss this! it turns out! ]

I kinda am already. [ it's an almost gentle rebuttal, but he does follow it up with: ] Even if he is currently kind of a pain in my neck.

</3

[moonprisonpower]

[ why couldn't he get annoyed!!! what the fuck, lea!!!! that's not the reaction he expected, and it visibly takes him aback for 0.1 of a second. or maybe it's the hint of a feeling. ]

[ mystery. ]

You're bringing me back, are you? [ that should clue lea into his timeline, at least. ] Your plans might have to wait.

[ saix's plans of dying are also currently on hold. ]

[leaberator]

[ that's what you get for being behind him in the timeline, bitch!!! which also oh thank god it's the most recent saix. like. it's still bad? but it could be so much fucking worse. ]

Maybe. But yours will have to, too.

[ he keeps it vague so he will never know if lea means xehanort's master war plan or the secret traitor plans, because having one over isa is very satisfying and he is feeling kinda petty ]

You been skulkin' in the shadows this whole time?

WEEK 0, SATURDAY

[moonprisonpower]

[ time for the ex to stalk!!! wheremest is he. ]

Lea.

[ how do u like being surrounded by possessed people, buddy. ]

[leaberator]

[ in his house which means i get to say this: ]

Get out of my room, Isa.

[ he can't... handle him right now. though he makes no move to force him out in any capacity. ]

[moonprisonpower]

No.

[ hello he is here to help. ]

I'd offer you ice cream, but I doubt you're in the mood.

[ starting this off great. ]

[leaberator]

[ if he had his keyblade it would be going straight into saix's face ]

What do you want?

[moonprisonpower]

Not a fight.

[ and not to steal ice cream and exposition, so wat. ]

... To talk.

WEEK 2, WEDNESDAY

[leaberator]

[ war is hell, but as much as he wants to stay glued to Xion's side-- there are others he should check up on.

... Or, well.

Maybe just the one.

He's been dodging Isa since--since-- but after yesterday, he has a few reasons to stop. So when he sees him in the village, he... hails him, because he can't think of what else. ]

Isa...!

[ wait. is he out of the black coat?? ]

[moonprisonpower]

[ don't check up on him. ]

[ he's in this symbolic hoody, looking none-too-pleased about it. ]

[ not that he looks pleased about anything. he freezes when he sees lea but instead of turning away out of hidden embarassment, he maintains eye contact like a cat fighting for dominance. ]

Lea. Were you injured?

[ his beautiful xehanort eyes flicker around to check if he is. he has a first aid kit in one hand ]

[leaberator]

[ lea can only stare at the hoodie and nothing else for like, an entire minute. ]

What are you wearing? [ it's teasing, and lea sounds fucking delighted at it. but then the rest of it catches up to him-- the first aid kit, the question... has he been playing nurse to everyone this whole time? that's... delightfully horrifying. why does he feel fond of that, ugh. ]

No, [ he said, waving a clearly bandaged arm around for emphasis, because he kEEPS FORGETTING ] but you have, right? That's the only reason you'd change out of the coat.

[moonprisonpower]

[ he's wearing sweatpants, if lea wants to have a boner over that too. ]

It was the only thing I could find.

[ and it perfectly symbolizes the gay wolves fighting in his soul. also, no, saix has never helped anyone, don't slander him. ]

[ his eyes narrow. ]

...

It's nothing.

[ then he just offers the kit to him, glancing away slightly. he saw that bandage, bitch. ]

[leaberator]

The only thing? [ there is a whole ass magic boutique and the ONLY THING he could find is a hoodie with two wolves and sweatpants? Lea's gonna die he's so distracted by how funny that is



Oh right other things happened. He glances at his arm (haha right that's there whatever.) before looking back at the kit and then saix, unable to even look him in the eyes. He rolls his own. ]

Uh-huh, sure. I'm fine, I took care of it yesterday, but has anyone looked you over, nurse? Or did you go hide in a corner to treat your own wounds without telling anyone?

WEEK 2, SATURDAY

[moonprisonpower]

[ lea's gonna have to go out looking for him, but he won't have to look far. he's just in gay baby darkness jail with swift wind, for whatever reason ]

[ preparing to die!! which is definitely happening. for sure. rip saix. ]

[ when he sees lea approach, something flickers across his face, then he just looks resigned. ]

Come to say goodbye?

[leaberator]

[ there is a long, distinct pause as axel weighs whether he should tell saix or abuse the fact that he thinks he's going to die and that makes him more honest


It's despicable but he chooses the latter, settling in next to him without a word. ]

You offered yourself up for Xion and Minato. Thought you didn't care?

[moonprisonpower]

[ axel.... is the worst. unfortunately, it's true, he will be more honest. but he's also mad at lea, so how honest remains to be seen. ]

They wouldn't have chosen me anyway.

[ so he clearly doesn't!! care!!! ]

[leaberator]

Which means you didn't have to tell them not to.

[ dumbass. ]

So?

[moonprisonpower]

I wanted to be sure.

[ fuk off lea ]

So, neither Xion or Minato will die. Are you satisfied?

WEEK 5, SATURDAY

[leaberator]

[ well he looks like he's had a Great Time (no) but-- without hesitation shows him a friendship bracelet: ]

I got an item that can make a partnership. Shess and I are already covered by the partner role, and Xion's got the other bracelet. I know you're gonna tell me to give it to the kid, but--

[ he cuts himself off ]

[moonprisonpower]

[ yeah buddy thanks for getting his partner lynched when she was only doing her job and maybe mercykilling some people????? ]

[ looks away. yeah, he knew the partner role would cover axel. ]

But what?

[leaberator]

[ STOP HE ALREADY FEELS BAD ]

... I'm not exactly alright with sending you off to the gallows.

[moonprisonpower]

[ he should. ]

Letting a child die would be worse.

Besides, I won't be gone.

[leaberator]

Won't you?

[ he has nothing to say to that first part. ]
