During the first night, it had been a rush with Isa to get to the safe house. During the morning, he had run for groceries, grabbing everything he could and making multiple runs. Why, you ask?

Well, in one corner of the

[Totally just wandering in. Yeah, all the leftover damages from outside and this new building really threw off his radar.]

I think I took a wrong turn back at that little chunk of green cor--

[Oof! Sorry, Lea! He's not really paying attention to where he's going.]

Yikes-!

[prominence_glow]

Ow-!

[And he's not saying that because of you, Demyx. He just spilled some hot stew onto himself. Grimacing, he tugs at his shirt before looking up.]

Oh, hey, Cheater. Lost?

...Or did you actually fight?

[ninthserenade]

My bad, dude.

[He'd show real guilt if he could, bro. But since he can't, he simply shrugs.]

Mostly just lost--And it's Demyx! Fighting isn't really my strong suit.

[prominence_glow]

I didn't catch your name. [Give some, get some, Demyx. Lea just shrugs right back.] I'm pretty sure, anyway.

So. Cheater. How can you say you can't fight when you can blast water around?

[ninthserenade]

'Cause you never asked, Axe-- [Whoa. Not Axel. This was his Other--Right?]

Demyx. And I'm just not cut out for it--I'm a musician, not some guy who goes around punching dead guys in the face or whatever! They're hard enough keeping outta the apartment me 'n Xiggy share!

[prominence_glow]

[There's a frown at the slip-up. Axe? What? But he lets it go for the time being and raises an eyebrow incredulously.]

I think you're just lazy. Me and Isa got through just fine.

[ninthserenade]

I wont deny the lazy part. I'm a Grade-A-Slacker. [A beat.] Yeah but you 'n Isa aren't living with an old man.

[A deadly old man, at that.]

[prominence_glow]

Aren't old guys supposed to be full of experience and stuff?

[ninthserenade]

[Is that a twinge of embarrassment? No way.]

I guess...

[prominence_glow]

Then I'm sure he'd be fine.

Old geezers are stubborn, trust me. I had to deal with one in particular back home who was the biggest pain.

[ninthserenade]

W-Well... If you know Isa, I'm gonna take a shot in the dark and guess this old dude was Braig?

[prominence_glow]

That's right! I think all the guards had, like, issues, but that guy was an uber creeper.

It was his smirk. Creeeeepy.

[ninthserenade]

Man, am I the only one who actually likes the guy?

1/2

[prominence_glow]

Yep-

[prominence_glow]

Wait, you know him!?

[ninthserenade]

Why wouldn't I know him? He's practically my best friend! Sort of.
