"Someday, what?" Kairi asked quietly, walking over stiffly.

She'd gotten stir crazy staying in the clinic for so long (just a week more!) and had decided to try wandering around again. It didn't hurt quite so much to move now, but it was still stiff and she still had bandages wound tightly about her to help keep her burns from being irritated by the loose white shirt she wore or the long loose pants.

The past few days had been spent trying to keep her mind blank. Ever since her conversation with Sora about the party being held in the clinic, she'd been . . . well, excited. Giggly at times, even. Sora was going to dance with her. Sora! With her! Not her counterpart, her! And while she didn't want to get between the two of them, she did like getting some kind of attention from him every once in a while. It'd been a while since they'd just talked together, ever since she came . . .

Kairi pushed those thoughts out of her mind. It wasn't fair to be jealous of . . . herself. Her brother's sanity wasn't a proper price to pay just for

"Someday, what?"

Looking up from his hypnotic gaze upon the water's surface, he was surprised that there was someone else around. When he first heard the voice, he thought that it may have belonged to the Kairi of his world. But at times, it was very hard to tell And in the end there was only one way to find out. Turning around to see a short haired redhead approach him, he was able to identify who she was immediately. It wasn't the Kairi that he had known for so long. Was he disappointed? Not in the slightest bit! She was still a very dear friend to him, counterpart or no. And someone that he held in high regard. If she had found herself in his world, he'd be content with her just like he was with Riku and his own Kairi

She gave him a look.

"I have been stuck in that clinic for over a month," she told him succinctly, "You would be bouncing off the walls by now if the situation was reversed."

Even if she did tend to keep to herself, she was used to being able to move without restriction. Radiant Garden had been fairly peaceful and the only rule Lord Ansem had ever set for her brother and herself when going into Town was to never go alone. And then after spending so long in Econtra without constantly being watched by her brother, a guard of some sort, her Grandmother, or the Royal Court itself, she didn't like being restricted.

Hence sneaking out of the clinic for a walk.

Though it was nice to run into Sora here and she smiled down at him, grateful for his company. Even though her brother came to see her nearly every day she had been lonely.

She had been in that clinic for over a month for a reason. She was being taken care of. And if she was off somewhere lost, it'd bring nothing but a freakout session from a certain Keyblade wielder as he would fret over her safety. Regardless, as soon as she made mention of what he would have been like in her shoes, he had to stop, think for a moment, and then finally give in.

A faint shade of red glowed upon his cheeks as he knew that he was caught red handed. "Yeah... You got me there."

"You sneak out of the clinic often?"
