Loli Time? :3 memory_etching March 15 2010, 17:52:51 UTC
With the hotel still having renovations and all the Mist gone, Namine was finding it hard to find things to help her occupied. Normally she would be fine with any form of drawing supplies, but she wasn't about to try and sneak back into the hotel just to get it and risk getting caught by Xigbar or the working Moogles.

Plus, Namine didn't ever make it to the cafe before the Mist came in, and it was close to the hotel. From what she had heard before, there wasn't any Mist around this area when it rolled into town.

And it was an interesting surprise to see Xion and Roxas working here. "Purple really is your colour," she smiled lightly while still standing in front of the door. 'I just sit wherever?"

Xion blushes lightly. "Thanks..." She returns Naminé's smile. "Right! Just wherever you'd like."

She picks up a menu and hands it to her. "Take as much time as you want, too. Just call for me when you're ready to order, okay?"

"Okay," she took the menu, hugging it to her chest and took a seat closer to the back of the cafe.

Namine gulped while looking over the menu. She never had the chance to make choices like this, living her existance more like a caged mouse than a normal teenager. All this freedom was liberating and pleasant, but it often scared her more than anything.

But she spotted one item that made her smile with a bit of nervousness. "Y-you have Sea-Salt ice cream?"

"Of course!" A wide smile breaks across Xion's face and she laughs a little. "It wouldn't really be us if we didn't, right?"

"Right," she giggles along and blushes lightly; now she's a bit embarrassed for asking. "I'll try one then."

"Okay! I'll be right back."

Naminé's phrasing doesn't strike her until she returns with the ice cream bar. "Wha-Wait, you've never had it before?"

The smile fades and the blush deepens. Namine nodded slowly as she took the bar from Xion. "No, I-I never had one before."

Xion can't help but stare for a moment. "W-Well, then -- Hold on just a sec." She turns and leaves, only to return a couple of minutes later with an ice cream for herself.

"You can't have your first sea salt ice cream alone!" she explains, sliding into the other side of the booth.

Namine's heart skipped a beat when Xion ran back, worried about Xion assuming that she had some before because they had met in Twilight Town and that she may have to explain herself. But when she returned to join her, Namine couldn't help but break into a smile.

"Thank you Xion," she began to unwrap the bar. ...No, I don't have to be alone here

"You're welcome," Xion replies cheerfully and following suit. "Ice cream's not as good when you have it by yourself," she says, trying to keep her tone light. Not that I've done it much. Just when Roxas was asleep that one time, when Axel couldn't make it to the tower. But... still.

"I guess," Not that she knew. Namine's only ever watched from the sides while others had ice cream together: Roxas, Axel, Xion, the real Twilight Town kids, heck even DiZ...

Nervously, she took a small bite and then smiled again. "It's... good. Sweet and salty at the same time. I can see why you three always like it so much."

Xion has to giggle. "It's really refreshing after a day of Heartless-hunting."

She pauses. "You know, me and Roxas have been trying to put together an ice cream party ever since... I dunno. Ever since I got here, almost. We were hoping you'd join us?"

She giggles along too (they're contagious!), before something dawned on her. "Oh, were you caught in the mist too?"

"I think Roxas already asked me, but I'd love to." Namine laughed sheepishly and took another bite.

"Oh! Oh... Yeah, I was, but that wasn't what I meant." She doesn't even have to try to change the subject here; she would've made the transition anyway. "Back... 'home,' every day after missions, me and Axel and Roxas would sit up on the clock tower in Twilight Town and have ice cream..." Her gaze slowly drifts up, memories fogging her eyes for a moment.

She shakes her head, pulling herself back into the conversation at hand. "Oh, he did?" She smiles. "Good! It'll be nice to have some downtime."

...Home. The smile changes to a somber one as she watches Xion for a moment. She knew those memories well. "...I know," managed to slip out of Namine's mouth quicker than she realized.

She only nods a response, "Yes, it would. Here or in the hotel?"

"I dunno... Somewhere high, I think. Somewhere with a view... Do you know if we can get onto the hotel's roof once it's fixed up?"

I know, she said. Somehow... Somehow, Xion's not surprised, and she's not even assuming that Roxas told her or something. She's not sure what that's about, but... It doesn't bother her, so it's all right.
