[vacationisalie]

It's almost been a month.

[If anything, he sounds- happy, quietly amazed when he speaks. Roxas hasn't exactly been the most social of the lot, but there's been reasons. It's hard to make friends when you're stuck thinking, at any second-]

I'm still me.

[Silence, then a soft, breathy laugh and Roxas switches the SFC off.]

Comments

[prominence_glow]

Of course you're still you.

Unless you decide to put on a dress and call yourself Wanda, but even then, you're still you. You in a dress and with possibly different pronouns, but you anyway.

Live it up, man.

[vacationisalie]

[Spluttering, on this end. Why do you always have such a way with words?]

I like my clothes! And my name is Roxas.

Not Wanda.

[But he'll take that advice and...live it up, a little. Try and get out there, now that it feels like its almost...okay to.]

[prominence_glow]

[Because he is... Lea. Yep.]

I wasn't being serious.

See, this is what I meant. Relax. Have fun. This place is your chance to do everything you've never had a chance to, okay?

[vacationisalie]

The place for...

[...]

[That means more than Lea knows, really. All the things he's never had the chance to do. To be his own person.]

Right. Thanks, Lea.

[prominence_glow]

No problem, man.

Cooking?

[vacationisalie]

...Cooking?

[Does not compute.]

[prominence_glow]

Promised I'd teach you cooking last time you were here.

[vacationisalie]

Really?

[Weird offer, but-]

Okay, you're on. Teach me cooking. But you have to come out with me and Isa for ice cream.

[prominence_glow]

You're buying.

[Lea, everything is free-]

[vacationisalie]

Sure.

[Roxas, everything is free-]

[prominence_glow]

Then we will meet and devour ice cream until we explode!

[vacationisalie]

Okay! I'll let Isa know, and we'll figure out when.

[prominence_glow]

Ice cream dates are the best kind of dates.
