[The camera turns on at a rather awkward angle to show Roxas, dressed in blue scrub pants and a tight-fitting t-shirt. He's trying to pull the matching blue shirt away from a robot, glaring fiercely at it]

Dirty! Dirty! [It cries, and Roxas heaves an exasperated sigh. To anyone normal this week, he sounds oddly... British. To anyone not normal, this

[Axel laughs, shaking his head] I think they like you.

Whaddaya wanna talk about?

[private]

[shardsofmemory]

Oh, I don't. They've already tried to steal my other clothing. I am not that dirty. [Huff] I only forgot it there.

Uh-- in person, I was thinking?

[private]

[memorizethefire]

Don't they just throw it in the incinerator if they find it?

Yeah, alright. Where're you?

[private]

[shardsofmemory]

Yes! That's why I've got to keep things away from them, it's hardly my fault I forget them places.

The medical bay, but meet me in the park?

[private]

[memorizethefire]

Isn't it? I thought that's kinda what "forgetting" meant.

I'll be there.

[private]

[shardsofmemory]

Oh, shut up. It's not my fault. They're too quick to take things away is all.

[Roxas is already changing out of the scrubs just out of view of the camera, pulling them off and wandering back in in his boxers as he zips up way too tight jeans] Alright, thanks.

[Axel's eyebrows shoot up, but besides that he seems to keep his cool] Just stop letting them in your room.

[private]

[shardsofmemory]

I don't let them in my room, they follow me home trying to desanitize me! Now are you coming or not?

[private]

[memorizethefire]

Yeah, yeah... [Axel just waves him off, turning off the berry as he makes his way down to the park]

[Roxas is waiting on a bench under a flowering tree, curled up with a book. He's read the same sentence four times and hasn't taken in a word of it, waiting for Axel]

[Axel gives him a little wave when he gets closer, dressed in his "usual" fire nation casual outfit, the red deeper, offsetting his bright hair] Hey Roxas.

in person

[shardsofmemory]

Hey. [Roxas' head jerks up, and he smiles nervously at Axel] You're late.

in person

[memorizethefire]

[Axel crouches down in front of him, grinning] How is this late? You never actually told me when.

in person

[shardsofmemory]

Because you're always late in some fashion or another. [Roxas kicks lightly at his shin, twisting his hands together on the cover of the book]

in person

[memorizethefire]

[Axel bats his foot away, grinning] Yeah right. I'm always on time, you're just early.

So what did you wanna talk about?

in person

[shardsofmemory]

[Roxas tries his hardest to keep the nervousness off his face but it doesn't quite work. He straightens up, and closes the book, and doesn't meet Axel's eyes, taking a deep, steeling breath] I... wanted to ask you something.
