"We can get the basics..." Roxas thought for a moment. "But if they have sea salt ice cream..." And watermelon. Maybe some hotdogs. He tried not to think about how much he wanted to get a few things he missed from his days in Twilight Town. They needed to pick up essentials first, and then get some other things... but Sea Salt... No! He couldn't think about it. "But we don't have to get it." He added.

This was wierd. He never thought he would be out grocery shopping with Riku. (Or some form of Riku?) All the fighting in The World that Never Was quickly helped Roxas form and opinion on the boy, and it wasn't going to change much, no matter how much sea salt ice cream he got. Then again, if this wasn't Riku... then this would just be confusing. If this wasn't Riku, then what was it? It couldn't be his Nobody, or even a Heartles... He took a quick glance at the boy.

This whole place was weird.

"Sea-salt ice cream?" That sounded like such a weird choice of ice cream flavor. How could something that was salty go with something sweet like ice cream? But Roxas seemed like he wanted it...

His next thought was that Roxas had caught him in his attempted subtle examination, but he quickly covered up his self-consciousness with a grin.

"It sounds kinda interesting," he smiled at the blond. "I've never heard of sea-salt as a flavor before, but a little adventure is always fun, right?" Repliku had a feeling his meals would feel adventurous for a while anyway, since he didn't know how to cook much beyond some simple things. He really hoped Roxas wasn't a bad cook.

Roxas? A cook? One could describe Roxas' cooking like Sora's. Just try imagining Sora cook. Now picture the results? It wasn't going to be pretty. It looked like the two of them were going to live off instant ramen, sea salt ice cream and bad food. Roxas actually wasn't going to complain as long as the ice cream was there.

"It's not like normal ice cream..." Roxas smiled back. "It's... different, but it's really good." Hopefully Riku would like it? Because if not, it would still be a weekly grocery expense at the rate Roxas ate the stuff.

...They're gonna have a cooking disaster one of these days, aren't they?

The idea of two teenage boys trying to cook as well as they could eat didn't sound like the best of ideas, frankly. Maybe they'd just be better off with things that were easy to make, like cereal, sandwiches, and pasta. Pasta was kind of like ramen, right? Just without the little bits of shrimp and chicken.

Repliku wondered if Roxas liked fish at all. It wasn't like he was an expert, but Repliku thought he could do the bread-and-fry thing with a fish if he tried. Maybe they'd have some of the fish that lived near Des- heh. Well, he could still try the fish thing if he wanted.

"Alright, so we put your ice cream on the list, too," he nodded. "I was also thinking we could get some cereal and sandwich stuff, maybe some canned soup, and some pasta and a couple of those salad-in-a-bag things." Ramen was good for every once in a while, but there were still some healthier things that were easier to make. The store was really big, though, and he didn't know where anything was. "You wanna just start at one end and work our way to the other?"
