Axel had never actually experienced the sensation of being pounced awake. Granted, back home that probably would never have happened, since he had a tendency to sleep with one eye open, and probably would have had a gun under his pillow if that had been an option, but here in Vatheon he was relatively confident no one was out to get him anymore. If Xemnas was still seeking vengeance for his betrayal, he would have acted on it by now. Sure, the boss knew how to bide his time, but he wouldn't have waited this long. So while he still stuck to his haphazard napping schedule, he wasn't nearly as on-edge as he had been back in Never Was ( ... )

Xion just grinned at him, and then gave his side a couple prods. "I think your spleen will survive," she decided, patting the area she'd poked. "I want to do something today, though," she announced, still looking perfectly comfortable where she was situated on his chest and making no move to get off.

"Can we go look for seashells?"

He snapped a hand down to close around her wrist when she prodded him--it really wouldn't do if she and Roxas ever figured out he was ticklish--and then released her as she patted his side. Lifting his other arm and giving her a slightly bored look, he furrowed his brow and shifted, trying to get his elbows beneath him. It proved a bit more difficult with a Xion paperweight on his chest.

"Seashells?" Well, he knew Roxas liked the beach, but wasn't it enough they were technically living under the ocean already? "... Is there even a beach?" And then he twisted his torso a bit, giving her a mildly peeved look. "And could you get off my sternum now? I don't need to lose my lungs, too."

She couldn't help a little laugh, but she slipped off his chest, to sit on the space on the couch that wasn't completely overtaken by his legs. "There's a lake," she pointed out. "If...there are any seashells here, I thought they might be there. And even if they aren't, it's still a nice place to spend time. Right?" She gives him just a little bit of puppy eyes -- but it's more just a hopeful look (the puppy eyes are natural).

Sitting up, he folded his legs and quirked his mouth at Xion. Damn her puppy eyes.

With a sigh, he said, "I ain't against going to the lake, I guess, but I'm not sure we're gonna find any seashells there." Did crustaceous things even live in lakes? ... Was crustaceous even a real word? He wasn't certain on either count, but it wasn't like he had anything else to do.

Threading his fingers together and stretching his arms, he leaned back into the couch and then let his hands rest on the crown of his head.

"Where's Roxas?" he asked. "He'll prolly wanna come, too."
