[Thanks Tsuru.] Yeah. Maybe that's it. [Wednesday bats at Tsuru's hand playfully.] I've never had a pet before, but I think it's going okay so far.

[preowned]

Well, you've already proven yourself to be a responsible young man, so I'm sure it'll be fine.

[ if you can herd all of these morons then surely you can own a pet ]

[cyclists]

You and Jiji are probably the only people who would really say that. And maybe someone else. [But it's kind of nice to hear anyway.]

[preowned]

You call him Jiji!

[ he sounds so absolutely delighted about this. ]

... but I think you have a lot on your shoulders, and you've been handling it as well as anyone can.

[cyclists]

[An embarrassed laugh follows that.] His whole name is a lot, so he told me I could call him that if I didn't want to keep calling him Lune.

[Roxas, a dumb bitch who doesn't quite grasp exactly what Jiji means.] ...I don't really get a choice, you know? It's my job to help look after all of you, so breaking's not an option for me. But thanks.

[preowned]

Is Mikazuki a lot? Hm...

[ then again tsuru is used to completely full naming the guy often so, he's a bad judge.

at the rest of it, though, he pauses. ]

Not everyone is good at their jobs.

[cyclists]

Not exactly, but it's more than Lune or Jiji. [He's also maybe a little lazy.

But he blinks in surprise.]

...do you think you were good at yours from back home?

[preowned]

... I did my best at my job. Whether all my choices were the right ones, and that they'll lead to our success... it's difficult to say. But I'd like to think I was good at it.

[ there's a pause, and then he smiles. ]

Let's say that I was then.

[cyclists]

Then maybe that's the important part. I know all of my choices could have changed stuff, too, but...I don't regret it back then. It's the choices here I'm a little more worried about.

[But on that cheerful note...there's a half-smile and he glances at Tsuru again.] Not that I'm not happy to see you, but what are you doing here?

[preowned]

[ the change in topic makes him smile. ]

I have a surprise for you!

[cyclists]

[Well. He looks visibly surprised so.]

For me? Like what?

[preowned]

I can't just tell you what the surprise is.

[ but he'll move back to the box. ]

[cyclists]

What about a hint? [He's Very Curious, please assist.]

[preowned]

A hint...

It'll be an adventure.

[cyclists]

An adventure....[He sits up a little taller. Can he have the box now? Pwease?]

[preowned]

[ fine, fine

he'll bring it over. and inside there is... well. a drawn map. and also a little shovel, clearly taken from the farm.

there's also things like gloves and stuff for working outside. ]

You're going treasure hunting.

[cyclists]

[o:] Treasure...? Like pirates? [Actually, this sounds fun and he looks a little excited by the prospect.] I didn't know there was treasure here.

[preowned]

[ that's because there wasn't until tsuru got bored and created a treasure hunt. but he's not going to say that out loud. ]

We can start whenever you want.

[cyclists]

[Roxas is none the wiser even if this doesn't surprise me, Ty, in the slightest.]

What about now? Are you busy? [Come on an adventure with him!! And his cat.]

[preowned]

We can go now!

[ he was hoping that roxas would say now. ]

[cyclists]

[This is why Tsuru's a good friend because he's immediately getting off the bed, putting Wednesday on his shoulder.]

Then let's go!

[preowned]

[ and off they go!

outside of the house there is a larger shovel, because tsuru could not fit it in the box. ]

[cyclists]

[Ooh...he'll pick up the bigger shovel, too, and now he's balancing everything as they begin to walk and follow the map.]

Where'd you find the map anyway? [It's actually hard to say if he really doesn't realize Tsuru made it himself or if he's humoring him, but either way.]

[preowned]

While searching for something to do here I stumbled onto it.

[ he stumbled onto the materials to make it ]

[cyclists]

That's pretty lucky. [Wednesday meows in agreement, and off they go.] This place was really kind of boring before you guys showed up. I wonder if you being here really did change some stuff.
