I enjoyed this. Sora's body would be cold in the snow. And I was a ways into it before I realized the timeline, and that Sora is letting Roxas have some time at Twighlight Town. I wonder how much the real Hayner, Olette, and Pence know Roxas.

I wanted a little ambiguity in this story - by the end you know what and when, but not why or how. I wanted the reader to wonder a little whether Sora really was okay with this. The relationship between Sora and Roxas has always been pretty gray, and I wanted to do justice to that. I think the cuteness of the subject matter and Rob's dialogue sort of drowned that part out, though.

While reading I didn't wonder at all whether Sora had given his consent or not. =/

I honestly thought we'd decided not to use that idea. There's not anything still in the story that leads the reader that way, anyway. A feeling of limbo around Roxas is fine, and I think you got some of that across, but there's no way Sora wouldn't have thought vacation for Roxas was a great idea. (Riku might have been a little irked, but...)

*notices shingo* Hehe, welcome to "Conversations we should have had before posting". Don't miss our next episode, "Why is Axel in 'My Other's Keeper'?"

Aww, this was sweet. Interesting, too. Roxas and the Twilight trio don't get enough fics together.
