Day 48: Sun Room [Second Shift]

Mar 07, 2010 11:32

Hmph. While this Rude was the proverbial "man of few words," von Karma found more potential use from him than a number of the other patients he had met put together. He would still ask Franziska about the man... as well as the other people he had learned that she had been spending time around. Many of them were utter fools, especially that ( Read more... )

[From here.]

The dampness of Sora's hair made it so that its usual shape was slightly weighed down by the water, and yet his spikes were still fighting to poke out the way they always did. He ran a hand through all of it, letting out a small sigh as he headed toward an empty seat. It looked like he'd showered pretty quickly, since the Sun Room was still almost empty.

Maybe he should have savored the hot water and the soap for a little longer, but there was no point in dwelling on it now.

Sitting down in a comfy armchair, the boy pulled his legs up and then crossed them comfortably. With his body all warmed up from the shower, he was almost tempted to take a nap. What he really knew he should be doing, though, was keeping an eye out for Riku or Kairi. Both of them were probably still getting clean (or on their way to), but he made sure to watch for them nonetheless.

[For Luxord!]

Well, that had been an embarrassing night. To spend all his time losing track of his location and missing an important date? He could very well defend himself by reminding those interested that a maze by definition was something meant to confuse and disorient those inside it by creating cut-and-paste walls of unmemorable architecture and therefore he was not at fault for being easily mislead in this institute, but ( ... )

Just as Sora had been losing his concentration and feeling himself slip off into a doze, he heard his name being spoken and perked up from his armchair. It took his eyes a second or two to clear, but after that the blond man standing before him was unmistakable.

So he was about to be bothered again. Great. Sora shook a hand through his still-wet hair and fought back a sigh. "Morning," he returned, but his tone wasn't exactly high up on the friendly scale.

"You should know by now that this is no game," he pointed out. "You've been here long enough." In fact, Luxord and Xigbar were the ones who'd stuck around for the longest, other than him. That wasn't exactly an encouraging realization to be making, but there it was nonetheless. Leave it to this particular Nobody to act like everything was a game, though. That had even come down to life or death, in the past.

...So the keybearer "knew" of his presence as well. It was curious and fascinating to hear so many testimonies of his earlier escapades when X himself could recall no such things. It was as if someone had cleared the table of his earlier hand when his attention was elsewhere, yet the rest of the players had already counted his cards ( ... )

It was easy for a Nobody to think of life as a game, maybe. With no emotions to get in the way, everything could just been seen as a puzzle or the moving of chess pieces. Still, Sora was as far from unemotional as a person could get, and so he couldn't see it Luxord's way, not even when the man was giving him what might be seen as a compliment ( ... )
