006 // OTA // action // I now sit on the emo-throne

[imnot_laughing]

Recent events have left Roxas somewhat confused. Let's sum up so far, hm?

He has no emotions. He begins to feel a few emotions. Mostly fear, thanks to Norrington. NO WAIT THAT HAPPENED LATER Aaaand then a girl shows up in his dorm, his roommate insinuates some crazy things, and Roxas is left with a weird burst of emotion that leaves as quickly as

UH, HELLO. FORGET ABOUT PRINCESS #1 OVER HERE? >:X

[obviousroyal]

[Speaking of the girl showing up in his dorm which happened a second time too, but she slipped under the radar, thank Allah... Here she is.

The bruises Mozenrath left her were mhealing up by now, save for a few disgusting spots of sick yellow and purple that she hid under a large silk scarf, slung around her shoulders and arms. However, the more permanent wound of psychological distress visably showed its wear; the poor princess looked as if she hadn't slept a wink in weeks, nor had she been eating properly.

Worry had been plaguing her mind, and needless to say, Roxas would be a welcome distraction. Jasmine quietly walked over to him.]

I-is it alright if I sit here too?

I COULD NEVER FORGET ABOUT YOU, BB ;;

[imnot_laughing]

[Jumping a little at the sudden voice beside him, Roxas sat up and dusted off the back of his head, hoping there were no leaves in his hair.] Ah, Princess-!

No, go ahead. [INSERT SWEEPING GESTURE.]

THANK YOU. ;A; <3

[obviousroyal]

Thank you. [She sat down, daintily -out of habit.]

Roxas, right?

I am awfully sorry about that morning after Valentines. I cannot apologize enough.

YOU'RE WELCOME MY DEAR <3

[imnot_laughing]

Oh, no problem. [He nods in affirmation when she says his name, then laughs a little, sounding unsure about what to say.] Um, no, don't worry about it.

...I'm the one who needs to be apologising, actually.

LOOKING AT RON? TRY LOOKING AT FROLLO.

[protectmemaria]

[The trees haven't yet begun to bud, but Frollo is used to the cold weather and doesn't particularly mind it. He strolls through the gardens at a casual pace, his feet snapping the occasional twig as he passes through the paths, the plants that line it scraggly and sharp, their branches not yet softened by leaves.]

OH GOD, MY EYES

[imnot_laughing]

[Roxas hears the footsteps nearby, but takes no mind of them. Lying on his back against the grass, he closes his eyes and lets himself drift off, assuming that he won't be in anybody's way- and if he is, surely they'll spot him in time.

this kinda looks like the set up for a rape scene. :< ]

[protectmemaria]

[If by "in time" you mean "a mere split-second before stepping on him," then yes, Frollo spots him in time. He whips back his robes, glaring indignantly down at the boy in front of him.]

Young man, what are you doing in the dirt like that?

[imnot_laughing]

[Woah, that was slightly terrifying. Roxas sat up straight and covered his eyes with one hand so that he could more easily see just who it was he was speaking too.] Me?

[No. The other boy lying under his feet.] I'm just- thinking, sir.

HERE, HAVE QUEEN OF AWKWARD.

[ambushes_nerds]

[ Trees.

Have you looked up in them, Roxas?

Because there's someone looking down at you.

You look like her-friend-but-not-really, Axel. Do you spin fire as well? You don't look like it. In fact, you look much like the last person to come to the gardens and look for quiet. Flint. So. Have a rustle of leaves from above. ]

LATE LATE I'M SORRY LATE

[imnot_laughing]

[The rustle is a little off-putting, but Roxas chalks it up to squirrels. Or something. Whatever lives in this school. oh god don't think about it

Cracking one eye open from where he lays to check, he's a little more than surprised to see a person in the trees. Uh. Wow.

Containing how much that scared him LIKE A BOSS, Roxas gives Kida a little wave from the ground.]

Hi?

NOT AS LATE AS ME!

[ambushes_nerds]

[ She double checks to make sure he's coherent. Yeah, he's awake, he's waving at her. She waves back briskly. ]

It seems many people come here often to think.

WANNA BET?

[imnot_laughing]

[Wowww. So he wasn't hallucinating. Hello Miss tree-climber.]

Really? I didn't pick this spot on purpose or anything, I just...

I'm Roxas.

did someone say adorableness

[memoryshell]

[Xion has finished her homework and has some free time. She wants to go look at the garden to find out what kinds of flowers are growing there. She brings along with her a notepad and pen to make her notes with and heads out to the garden.

There, she sees a boy with blonde hair. She recognizes him as one of the people who replied to post the Creator made to introduce herself and Mera.]

You look troubled.

sorry for the late reply! ;~; AND I DID.

[imnot_laughing]

[Woah, Xion, way to freak a kid out. Sitting up suddenly, as though an air raid siren had gone off, Roxas tries to then make himself look composed and calm as he sees it's just a girl. Roundabout his age, it seems. Phew.]

Uh-me? [No, one of the many other people there.]

'SALL GOOD BB. :D

[memoryshell]

Yes, you. [Who else?]

<33 Y'ALL SO KIND

[imnot_laughing]

Oh. Well then, I spose I do? [Have a confused head tilt, Xion.]

/late and sorry ;; HAVE A TL;DR TO MAKE UP FOR IT~

[nocorsetsplease]

[Elizabeth had taken to the gardens, as of recent, finding the simple pleasure of blooming flowers in spring calming to her nerves. It was not often, anymore, that she felt the need to take strolls alone. Yet since she and Will had had more than a slight spat, Elizabeth had been taking time to think, to sigh, to wonder just what the bloody hell she was doing with her heart. Particularly after her admission to Tulio...

She was more than out of sorts.

As she walked past a particularly beautiful cluster of lilies, she spots a familiar figure she recognizes from the firing range. He looks a bit contemplative, perhaps as much as she. A bit of company may do them both some good.

She walks over with a smile, her voice warm.]

Mister Roxas. I take it you enjoy the gardens as much as I?

/LATER AND SORRY-ER? ALSO I LOVE TL;DR

[imnot_laughing]

[Roxas was leaning back against a tree trunk when Liz spoke, eyes unfocused as he stared at nothing in particular. He too was a little out of sorts, but maybe Liz was right- a good talk between friends could solve- or at the very least distract you for a while- from many problems.

Elizabeth's voice startles him a little, and his hurry to greet her, Roxas bumps his head against the tree, not enough to injure him, but definitely enough to embarrass him.]

Miss Eliz- ow-!

fffffffffff I'm glad you doo otherwise I'd be a bother XD

[nocorsetsplease]

[She gasps and rushes over to him.]

Mister Roxas, are you alright? Goodness, I hardly meant to frighten you!

[Her mouth twists to something a bit more wry.] We do seem to have a knack for startling one another.

okay, now I AM a bother CURSES, SLOWATUS! /shakes fist

[imnot_laughing]

[Oh god, did she, of all people, have to be the one to see this?]

No, you didn't- ahhh, it was my fault... [He smiles just a little at this.] Yeah.
