On Balancing Powers

[not_ale]

((Events in this post occur about half an hour after Other!Axel's impromptu visit.))Leaning lazily against the door jamb, Axel watched her with a blank expression, her quick movements and her newly acquired four inches, her frame starting to finally develop into one of power. She was aging faster these days (an event, Axel noticed, that only

'It does.' :| Slight annoyance~. There's a big difference between asking people to do something and making them! 'Don't be weird! I wouldn't let them do that. Why would they want to?' Have a confused look now.

[not_ale]

"Well good." At least she knew the difference between that. Not that compulsion couldn't be wielded through other ways. Subtle ways.

Axel smirks, head tilted back at a questioning angle. "Ever heard of toe jam?"

[thebasi]

'Toe jam?' And *naturally* what she imagines is ... a bottle of jam. Of toes. D: '...Eww.'

[not_ale]

"Exactly." Axel gestures. "I guess you better hold onto your toes when they come around then."

[thebasi]

Her toes, not that Axel could see this, might be curling in ewww inside her sneakers. All the same: 'That's gross, Axel.' He's making it up, right? D:

And hm, almost done with the packing. She doesn't have that much clothing. She'll go check the rest of the place for any shoes or coats now....

[not_ale]

Of course he's making it up. That's just plain wrong. Ugh. Although, with the type of worlds he hops to, it just might be par for course. "Is it now?" Axel jokes. He could probably mention something about english muffins or some such but he's not that sadistic. At the moment.

Terebas looks about done packing. Axel's not too happy (not that he could feel happy to begin with) about letting her go off to be a science experiment, and therefore delays the departure by shoving a Terebas shoe under the desk with his boot. Here, have a somewhat smirky, innocent smile.

[thebasi]

'Ew,' she confirms over her shoulder. Checking the hall and living room first~! She'll be back to her room in a minute or two.

[not_ale]

Axel stays right where he is, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed.

"You don't have any science experiments running around I should know about, do you?" He didn't want to accidentally skewer the thing thinking it was a Heartless.

[thebasi]

And back, with a pair of boots, that she drops in the bag too. Now, what's left...? She picks up a shoe and starts looking for its mate. Hm~.

'No ... I don't really do experiments here.' Not anything that'd run around on it's own, anyway. With the exception of the Axel-doll from other!Axel, which is currently chilling in the crystal she uses to help keep him cohesive. And the other one, which despite the mun's forgetfulness, she would've picked up to take with her so he wouldn't fade away or anything.

[not_ale]

Keep looking for the shoe, Terebas. You won't find~ it unless you look under the desk. "But you do them elsewhere." Axel shrugs. "Just don't blow up any worlds when I'm not there, got it?" What's the fun in that?

The newest Axel action figure (not doll!) inspects the crystal holding the other mini-Axel, head tilting back and forth as it decides whether the other replica is a threat or not. A seemingly gloved hand made of darkness reaches out and pokes. And pokes. And pokes.

Fortunately, he decides to ignore doll Axel for now. Hn.

[thebasi]

Well, she's looking under the bed, so she might see it soon if she's not distracted or it's not blocked from view~. 'What is it with you and blowing up worlds?' Snicker. 'I don't do that.'

The replica in the crystal turns its head to see the other doll after it starts ignoring him. If the other Axel-doll looks back, it'll be just as it was before, no sign of movement.

[not_ale]

"Hey, don't knock it 'til you've tried it," Axel sagely says, arms waving all over the place. "You're criticizing someone's occupation there, kid." Mainly his, but Terebas doesn't need to know that.

The other Axel-action figure doesn't notice the other's perusal, too busy testing the firmness of the mattress to really pay attention to the doll. And now it's moved onto poking other things. Why hello thar, clock. Can your insides move?

[thebasi]

There is other stuff under the bed, so she crawls under partway, moving things aside. 'I don't wanna blow up worlds!' She can't see the arm-waving, but she knows it's going on~. And she's grinning a little. 'I can blow up other stuff, though.' She's grown. <3

The other Axel replica - howsabout a truce, here? D: - makes its way out of the crystal to trail the new guy, curiously.
