LOL. I love Roxas's first impressions of everything. This was very enjoyable.

Hee, thanks~.

Eeee~ I love the idea about his "hypnotic" lack of respect -- you know that even if Roxas hadn't been compelled to go to him, that thing is exactly what makes him stand out, why Roxas would keep thinking about him at first.

I love their interaction here~ Axel's snark followed by easy (too easy) submission under pressure (Roxas will learn that, I'm sure) and Roxas's satisfaction, like that's all he really wanted when he pulled Axel aside, is just wonderful.

Also, everyone is full of Nobody-related lies, especially Nobodies. X3

Axel was genuinely taken aback, impressed by the kid's spunk. He's so much fun to write, because his submission is at the same time a total lie and genuine. He'd say he did it to reward the spunk, and he'd mean it. Halfway. :D

Besides it leads nicely into sex!

Wow, I really really liked this one. I loved how you described everything from Roxas' POV, that was great! And Axel being the Joker? Perfect! That was what made him my favorite Org. XIII member in the first place!
Roxas makes Axel obey. Ooooh, shiny~ XD

Heh~. Thank you. This was interesting to write, and very different, I think, than I would've written it a month, even a week ago. The new scenes in Re:CoM, the Axel-Roxas interaction scene in Another Report -- I don't know, I wanted to write something where the interest was mutual, on Roxas's end. ♥ I'm glad you liked it.

Mwahaha.

Great way to tie in the tattoos...almost identifying his marks to that of a jester or clown, very interesting to bring out his emotional comic as well as his loud appearance.

-bright red hair, and a painted face...hot joker.

*purr* Indeed.

I didn't read this one until right now because I still haven't written this prompt >__>; (Not that I have any ideas for it anyway)
Really good idea for the prompt ♥ Love your Roxas~

Eeee, thank you~ ♥

Can't wait to read yours. X3
