[lockandkeyblade]

[It's a true, bonafide mystery!]

[Like where left socks go. Or why sheep don't shrink after it rains. Only this particular mystery is a door in Sora's apartment- one that's been closed since Halloween, and none of his roommates-neither Kairi nor Riku nor Ritsuka- knows what's behind it. Now that most of the apartment's been emptied in the move, Sora

[Um.]

Are you okay?

[lockandkeyblade]

Yeah I'm-- [A pause as he nearly stumbles over a box that rattles. He cringes- okay. That... might have been something breakable.] Fine.

Just really surprised!

[pullsheavendown]

No kidding.

[peers]

What is all that stuff?

[lockandkeyblade]

I think these are all... Christmas presents.

[Roxas can probably see as much, but Sora looks darned confused.]

Somebody must've piled all this stuff in here! There's even a couple lists here with names. There's only one person who would do something like this, but there's no way he'd be here in Siren's Port, let alone our place...

Christmas presents.

[Just in case he's fallen asleep for a few weeks without noticing...again...Roxas checks the date on his NV screen. Nope, still November.]

Isn't it kind of early for that?

[lockandkeyblade]

Yeah! Christmas isn't for another month.

[More presents shift and tumble around his feet.]

What am I gonna do with all this junk?

[pullsheavendown]

Well...you said they have names, right? Try delivering them.

[lockandkeyblade]

All of em?!

There's like a million!

[Well. Almost. Sort of. Not really. Just a lot, okay?!]

[pullsheavendown]

Better get started, then.

[Slump.]

[But once he lets loose that monstrous sigh, something strikes him.]

Hey... you think maybe some of us are on there?

[pullsheavendown]

[He squints, but can't see any of the tags from this side of the NV.]

Only one way to find out.

video;

[lockandkeyblade]

Wait right there!

[If Sora had long sleeves he'd be rolling them up like a boss, not-friend. He surges forward, pushing through the pile of presents to get at one of the lists. Then disappears on the other side of the pile with a small 'Woa!']

video;

[pullsheavendown]

Sure.

[He shrugs and goes back to playing with Xact with his free hand while he waits. Oh, right-]

Be careful!

[Not that he's a friend who cares.]

[lockandkeyblade]

[More shuffling on the other side. And then it goes quiet as Sora reads through the list. He doesn't show up on the NV, but his voice can be heard from a distance]

Hey, I think I found yours, Roxas. Your name!

video;

[pullsheavendown]

Seriously?

[Blink. Blinkblink. He honestly wasn't expecting that.]

What is it?

video;

[lockandkeyblade]

[He climbs to the top of the pile, sitting atop a rather conveniently shaped present, eyes glued to a particular spot on the list.]

Yep. Right here.

Whaddo you know, Kairi's on this list too.
