187th Day [video]

[mirroredmemory]

[Xion's in pyjamas, she's got a little Winner cat on her lap and she looks in considerably better shape than the last time she appeared on the network. She seems to have a large pile of teen girl magazines beside her with garish pink covers and titles proclaiming all sorts of mystical teenage girl subjects that she's just learning about, but that

Why do you ask, Xion? You got something planned with a special somebody?

[He's mostly joking of course. Xion tends to get interested in all sorts of things. He wouldn't be surprised if this was just something she heard over the network and wanted to know more about.]

[Sora you have just made her go bright red. Gosh darn it, keeping this secret is so not easy!]

Um- I guess I just- um. You know. I want to know. Why, do you think I've got a date?

[Video]

[lockandkeyblade]

Just kidding.

Just wondering what's got you thinking about all this stuff lately is all.

[mirroredmemory]

[Does she look relieved? No. No of course not. You're imagining it. Shut up.]

I was just thinking about it, that's all. And then I realised that I don't know anything about it, really, and I thought that maybe I should in case I do go on a date on Fr- someday.

'In case you go out on a date on ...?'

[He sits up straight from where he's lounging on the couch to give full attention to Xion.]

Hang on- I was joking before, but does that mean you're really trying to find one for Friday?

[Video]

[mirroredmemory]

[Sora you are going to blow her cover!]

No! No I'm not trying to find a date on Friday!

[lockandkeyblade]

[Sora's not well known for his subtleties,Xion.]

So you already have one then?

[mirroredmemory]

[Oh she could just throttle you.]

Please don't tell Roxas!

[Video -> private]

[lockandkeyblade]

[He blinks curiously. So it is true. He'd just been making wild guesses at the time. He just doesn't usually end up being right when he does.]

About the date?

Sure, I guess...

[Video -> private]

[mirroredmemory]

Promise you won't! It's really important Sora.

I'm going to tell him about it, so please don't say anything about this to anyone, not even Riku and especially not Joe.

[Video -> permaprivate]

[lockandkeyblade]

Promise!

But how come you don't want you don't want any of them to hear about it yet? They're your pals- isn't this the kind of thing they'd wanna know about?

[Video -> permaprivate]

[mirroredmemory]

I know...

But... Terra's Ven's pal and he... didn't react well. And... I don't want to make Roxas upset, especially not about this. He's my best friend, I don't want him to think it's a bad thing.

[lockandkeyblade]

How could a date be a bad thing?

[A pause.]

And what's anything got to do with Ven?

[mirroredmemory]

[Really Sora, really?]

Well... he's my boyfriend. I think. I don't really know how all this works yet.

If you kiss someone on the lips, he's your boyfriend, right?

[lockandkeyblade]

I knew you guys were close, but not that close. You guys even kissed too...

[How'd he miss spotting something like this? Easily]

Um. I'm pretty sure if you guys kiss you're supposed to be together.

[mirroredmemory]

Well... It's pretty new. I mean... we only kissed at the lake, on the morning of the last day, when I got up early and went swimming.

[And she smiles shyly.]

I don't really know what I'm doing, but I don't care. It feels nice.
