[Axel looks pleased with himself; he's still sporting a cut above his eye from the skirmish with the Spinosaurus, but overall he didn't make out too badly with the whole thing.]

Olly oxenfree, gang, raise your hand if you got eaten. Everybody still kicking?

[Private to Lea and Isa] )

[vatheon], we need to talk, i need a drink, like a boss

Real mature, Lea. Fine, do what you want, but I'm not gonna warn you again.

You don't need to warn me about anything.

I know that pretty much the whole city thinks I'm just some impulsive, hot-headed idiot- even you- but, holy crap! I can actually think.

For light's sake then act like it, dumbass. You have no idea what you're dealing w-- You know what, forget it. It's not like I could care even if I wanted to. Do whatever you want.

GO TO HELL!

You think I'm so stupid? You think I couldn't put two and two together and realize that was the guy responsible for destroying my HOME!? That I wouldn't realize someone who could control someone like you and the old man and Demyx and ten other people is strong!?

I knew what the hell I was dealing with the second I stepped into that damn room and saw him near Isa! That's why I ran!

Even though I hate it, and I hate myself for never being able to stand up to anyone in this stupid bubble, I just grabbed Isa and ran away!

[Axel waits a good ten minutes to zen--who knew he could find himself so infuriating?--before he texts back.]

Lea. I'm being serious. I'm not patronizing you, okay? Of all people, I know where you're coming from. It was my home too, remember?

Where are you? Can we talk?

[It takes him a bit to find him--thank goodness for portals, right?--but when he does, he turns off the exasperation and approaches with lifted hands. He's not here to fight, believe it or not, and if Lea doesn't want to listen to him then so be it. Axel just doesn't want the kid to have any room to say he didn't know what to expect. It's really the least he can do--maybe he wouldn't have spent so long being so angry if someone had told him what was coming. At least then he would have only had himself to blame for not listening. Though... in a way he supposes Lea would still have the same problem... it would just be himself from the future he would blame.

Oh, whatever.]

I guess I shouldn't really be surprised you're being so damn stubborn about this...

[Lea's pressed up against a certain big yellow chocobo that Sora left him. Scattered around him are camping supplies: a half-made tent, a sleeping bag, some pots and pans. As he hears Axel approaching, he just stares.]

And how'm I being stubborn?

Well, it appears to me you're camping in the woods instead of actually facing the fact that you're scared of what's happening. That's a start.

[He folds his arms and leans against a tree.]

Look, Lea, I ain't here to fight, okay? I just want you to understand something: I don't give a rat's ass what you think of me. Of what I've become. Trust me, I'm not too happy about it either, which is why I don't want to see it happen to you. To Isa. So whatever you think I'm trying to do, getting in your way, whatever... that ain't it. I just don't wanna see you make the same stupid mistakes I did.

[He lifts his chin a bit and frowns.] So... that's all I wanted to say. If you wanna tell me to screw off, then so be it, but I'm not just gonna let Xemnas get what he wants. Not this time.

[Lea just remains pressed against Radi, frowning as Axel speaks.]

...So what's your great big plan, hotshot?

Reply

[action] got_it_memorizd April 18 2011, 19:49:43 UTC
I'm still working on that. Right now I'm lucky Xemnas hasn't got me at the top of his shit list, to be honest. [Yes, Lea, you heart right. Shit List. See? He can swear when the occasion calls for it.] So before I can really accomplish anything, I gotta... nngh. [A shake of his head and a full-body shudder.] I gotta kiss ass for a little while, at least until he lets me in on his plan. I've got no doubt he's got one in the works already--it's how he's wired.

...Fine. If it's what you have to do. Just as long as you don't drag me and Isa into it.

And you're wrong, by the way. I didn't come here to... run away.

[He bristles visibly and jerks away from the tree.] What the hell is your problem? I'm not dragging anybody into anything, you idiot--I'm trying to keep him away from you and Isa! Jeez, why the hell do I even bother...?

[He gives him a dubious look then, the anger quelling to measured irritation.] Then what exactly did you come here for? Alone time with Feathers, there?

[Lea just keeps his stony glare in place, standing up when Axel moves away from the tree. It only softens slightly at the questions.]

Please.

Wanna take a shot in the dark as to how many important fights I've lost? And I don't mean stupid schoolyard scuffles. I mean real fights. With stakes.
