[There Sphere starts out just an inch or two above the floor, where it landed when Roxas knocked it off his desk. It now floats lazily into the air, slowly bringing Roxas into view. He's facing away, and he's got no shirt on. And, for once in a blue moon, he's slowly peeling off the bandages he customarily keeps wrapped around his upper torso at

Nice tattoo.

[He's not actually looking at the sphere when he says this. his eyes are on the looming planet]

[twilightfell]

[very dryly] Thanks. It always made me feel really special that I got a crown and no one else did.

[sighs quietly and directs his own attention back out the window] So you think the Captain's gonna keep his promise about not landing?

[conniving_flame]

[just as dry] Brat. Why can't I be a special snowflake?

Of course not.

[twilightfell]

The fire powers. You'd melt yourself.

... heh. Think we'll crash into it, or what?

[conniving_flame]

... [grins at that] Eh, looks tacky anyway.

With our luck? Probably. I'm not about to trust a captain that's probably dead.

[twilightfell]

[lips twitch in an almost-smile] No kidding. They could have chosen a better design.

... ghosts. [heh] At least it'd be a change of pace, right?

[conniving_flame]

It's pretty tame from the usual shit they ink onto the Keybladers' bodies.

I dunno. We deal with Heartless and Nobodies and talking animals on a daily basis. Ghosts aren't that impressive.

[twilightfell]

What, the symbols? Eh, I guess. I never really paid attention to the others, since they made such a big deal over coming up with my mark.

I meant crash-landing on the planet, but I guess you're right on that count. It's even less interesting if you've been to Halloween Town before. Still, I've never had to deal with a ghost controlling an entire ship. [with a sigh, and mostly to himself] Man, I was joking all along about that ghost thing. I didn't think I'd be right.

[conniving_flame]

Special treatment for the special kid. [there's no teasing edge this time] Sounds about right.

Maybe Sora passed on his premonition skills to you.

[twilightfell]

[looks sideways at him, gaze sharp] What can I say? They just loved me.

... premonition skills? [lifts a brow]

[conniving_flame]

Maybe you should work on not being so lovable then.

[laughs a little] Didn't you know? Sora can see into the future.

[twilightfell]

.... [stares at him flatly, then bares his teeth in a dull mock snarl he obviously doesn't mean. he lets it drop a moment later, keeping the deadpan expression.] How's that?

... riiiiiight. And he's got a crystal ball too, right?

[Axel throws his head back and laughs. it's actually a pleasant sound] I'm sure you'd kill babies with that face.

He did, until he misplaced it.

[twilightfell]

[he manages to keep from looking surprised, and instead just grins faintly] Roxas the great baby killer. Sounds like a great career.

[okay, that gets a faint laugh out of him] Seriously, what's the story there?

[dawn_is_coming]

I can?
