Things were often quiet on the fourth floor, even during the holidays. Roxas announced that he was going on his break, and then headed down to the cafe. It was weird. He barely knew Zack, but still the guy had casually asked him to hang out. Roxas hadn't experienced that in quite a while.

He walked briskly there, glad that the streets were now clean and walkable. Once he made it to the cafe, he stopped and waited for Zack.

LATENESS. LATENESSSSSS. Dx;;; I'm sorryyyy

Zack wasn't too far behind, having taken up running the last few strides in anticipation of getting to his warm destination. All but bursting into the cafe, he sighed over-dramatically with a swing of his arms, stomping away any excess, lingering snow there at the entrance.

All passerby's were awarded with a public service announcement via Zack Fair at that moment.

"DANG. It's freezin' out there."

... Please. Hold your applause. The young man glanced about, rubbing his hands together with an attempt to squirm body heat back to his limbs.

... Only ... now that he was inside, he realized that he had zoomed past his coffee-pal in his mad, derpish rush to get out of the cold. Yeah... oops.

No worries

Roxas blinked. It took him a moment to realize that Zack had just passed him and was now in the coffee shop. Roxas couldn't really blame him. It was cold out.

Rather than make Zack come out again, he walked inside. And wasn't really sure what to do next. He stood awkwardly for a moment, before offering a small, "Hey".

/beeeeegs for forgiveness *A*

Despite a natural, obvious instinct to stay put where it was warm, he managed to meet Roxas halfway at the door, rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly.

"Um... Hey."

Sorta edging closer inside, he offered an... awkward wave and a lopsided grin. "I'm Zack. Can't remember if I mentioned that already. You, uh... You wanna grab a table? I'll get the drinks."

Rambling time is go? Rambling time is go.

"I mean -- y'wanted cocoa, right? You don't look like a coffee drinker. Or tea. Tea's pretty gross."

Yuffie was out and about exploring the town. This Christmas holiday was pretty cool, not quite like anything they had back at home. There were so many shiny things to look at and shops were advertising like crazy. Her fingers itched. She'd have to check them out at some point. Without Aerith or Leon around becase they would totally ruin her mojo.

She was eyeing the Department store when a familiar black spikey head walked by.

Oh hey!

She crept up sneakily behind him and threw her hands over his eyes, quite a feat, considering his height compared to hers.

"Guess whoooo~!"

Having been caught in mid-grumble, he barked in surprise from this... BRUTAL blitz attack, hands flailing free of his pockets.

His usual, immediate reaction would have probably been a little violent, but... He'd spent enough time on Johto to quell reactions like those. Luckily.

After his slightly embarrassing reaction, he settled down... and gave an exaggerated shrug.

"Uhhh." A girl, obviously. A girl who wasn't Aerith or Heather or Rise, as far as he could tell. Someone short who obviously enjoys sneaking up on people and--

W-Wince.

"I give up."

[usedninjathief]

"Well you're no fun."

She lets go anyway, slipping around in front of him with the kind of smirking grin she usually wears. The hood of her jacket is down, so her face isn't obscured at the moment.

"Hey there pal! I see ya really did finally make it. Heh."

She punches him playfully in the arm.

With an exhasperated sigh, he shrugged helplessly... deciding that she was a whole lot easier to deal with when she was nine years old. Then again, it was no surprise that she grew up to be the way she was. Yuffie never did strike him as the type that ... changed a whole bunch.

"Yeah... I made it." Barely.

"I gotta get somethin' warm in my system, though. I'm freezin' my..."

A strained look. ... No, we won't go there today.

"... Uh. Want some coffee or whatever?"
