Week 5: Wednesday

[omegathree]

[What's up, Lea. Val is still in a whole bunch of bandages, though he's at least back in his normal outfit. At least the long sleeves and the cape hide them away.

He walks through the garden once he sees him there.]

How are the wounds?

[leaberator]

[ he's lying down, but he doesn't sit up to greet val because like. he doesn't wanna it's so much. he does greet him with a wave though ]

Annoying, but the pain's manageable. I think my jaw hurts more. [ it doesn't, but he moves his jaw a lot more than the rest of his body right now. ] Yours okay? You didn't exactly get it any easier than I did.

[omegathree]

[Val just takes a seat on a nearby bench.]

I'd be surprised if you jaw hurts more than the rest of your wounds.

[He would shrug, but the burns make it difficult.]

Hm... I still don't like being on fire.

[leaberator]

He dropped down from a blimp to kick me, it hurts a lot.

[ but yes he is also exaggerating. ]

... Vally, no one likes being on fire.

[omegathree]

I stabbed you with my talons.

It is awful. Though some lucky have some resistance to it.

[leaberator]

And I set you on fire. [ he waves it off ] It doesn't feel great, but there's nothing we can do about it now.

[omegathree]

[Val laughs and then stops because it hurts.]

Did you know every one of my comrades tried to kill me at home?

This seems right.

[leaberator]

[ he pauses for a second and now he's the one laughing. it hurts but he continues because he's a FOOL ]

Oh, man. I think we might sorta have that in common. I've at least fought most of 'em.

[omegathree]

[Oh no, now Val is laughing and this time he ignores the pain.]

This must make us true comrades.

[leaberator]

[ he's? laughing so much? it hurts so bad? he has so many regrets ]

Guess so! [ once he winds down, though... ] Aw, man. It's too bad you already started calling me by name. It'd be a perfect time for an upgrade.

[omegathree]

Hm... It really is. You could always change my nickname.

[leaberator]

Aw, I'm kinda attached to Vally. [ he tilts his head, thinking about it ] Tory?

[ he. is obviously kidding. ]

[omegathree]

I'll admit, I've grown quite fond of it.

Hm... Do you think it fits?

[leaberator]

Not even a little.

[omegathree]

Then we're in agreement.

Valzy is fine as well.

[leaberator]

Isn't that Artina's...?

[omegathree]

No. It's Desco and Fuka's.

Artina tends to call me Mr. Weirdo or Mr. Vampire.

[leaberator]

That's right! She had the best nicknames. [ oh my god ] Maybe you can be Mr. Mermaid, now.

[omegathree]

[He sounds so amused.]

I'll allow it.

[leaberator]

So there we go! Mr. Mermaid. For our fond bonding memories.

[omegathree]

Do you prefer Lea or Axel? I've heard people refer to you as both.

[leaberator]

Lea's my real name, but... Axel's what I went by when I met most of my friends, so they still call me that. I don't really mind either, so long as they remember.

[ it's a bit wistful? and. also a bit weird but. memories bad ]

[omegathree]

I've gotten used to calling you Lea, but I can certainly change it.

Your friends... Xion, Namine and Saix? Is that right?

[leaberator]

Nah. Saïx knew me as Lea first. But you're right on the other ones.

[ and roxas but he doesn't talk about his son who he misses ]

[omegathree]

So you've known Saix... longer than the others?
