[ it literally just says "hi, roxas"

he's an asshole and he is chinhanding as he waits patiently for roxas to solve it ]

[cyclists]

[Mom...it takes him a few minutes to figure it out and some of the letters come out wrong and he redoes it, but eventually he gets it.

...and laughs. So thanks Axel.]

Hi to you, too. Should I be looking for hidden messages in all of your notes now?

[leaberator]

You kidding me? That's way too much effort for no payoff.

[ he's lazy, roxas!! ]

You can keep the cheat sheet, though. I've got it memorized.

[cyclists]

That doesn't surprise me. [But there's still a smile as he carefully folds both papers up and shoves them somewhere into his cloak.]

And the spiky ball is for...? [We're going down the list, apparently.]

[leaberator]

I have a bag of infinite spike balls and no idea what to do with 'em.

[cyclists]

The prizes keep getting weirder and weirder. It came as a reward from that war, right? Like the sword Naminé and North had, or some of the other stuff.

[leaberator]

Yep. So I'm probably gonna be giving you those for the rest of our stay here.

[ just? to do something with them? it's fine. ]

[cyclists]

It's probably better for me to have them than to leave the out for somebody else to take them anyway.

[...he means Hisoka.]

[leaberator]

...Yeah, I'm hiding these.

[ he's got a hand on his forehead as he says it, just so roxas can see that he's got bandages on both his arms to show off his bad choices :/ ]

[cyclists]

[The nice thing is that without a hood, Axel can see his disappointed face =\]

What happened to "all of us need to be careful", by the way? [Axel..]

[leaberator]

It's a scratch, Roxas.

[ a literal one, this time, ]

Besides, as fun as it would be to get rid of him, I knew the guy wasn't corrupted.

[cyclists]

Yeah, and that guy's crazy. That's like inviting him to fight you and stalk you even more even if he's not corrupted. And he's a cheater anyway.

[Not that this is about fairness but he refuses to be even remotely unbiased about Hisoka.]

[leaberator]

He's already doing all of that anyway.

[ he's not backing down from "whatever i can handle hisoka" but, uhm? ]

A cheater?

[cyclists]

That really doesn't make this better. [Huff.]

But yeah, a cheater. And a sore loser. [He's going to take a bite of his ice cream.] Is it easy to ignore him?

[leaberator]

[ hm. ]

You fought him, didn't you?

[ he does not answer the other question because :) ]

[cyclists]

[Rude?]

He started it. What was I supposed to do?

[leaberator]

Not give the clearly unhinged guy what he wants?

[ he said, lacking irony. ]

So you won, but he cheated. What happened?

[cyclists]

He kinda didn't give me an option before he threw the first punch. [So there's that, but he's just kind of frowning.]

He came to me to ask for information, I told him what I was supposed to tell him, and then he decided to fight me. "B is for Broker, A is for Attack." So I fought him until he got mad and gave up.

[Close enough.]

[leaberator]

[ ... ]

He gave up?

[ that's. weird. ]

What'd you do?

[cyclists]

I fought back and made things even when he kept screwing around.

[leaberator]

[ hmmm ]

What kinda things?

[cyclists]

Axel...[Nooo...] It's fine, he got everything back and got over it, probably.

[leaberator]

[



what ]

Y'know, that's real ominous. What didja do?

[cyclists]

I used my power to level things out.

[He got mad and took away Hisoka's element, he means.]

[leaberator]

[ he's. obviously trying hard not to laugh, but. ]

... Did you ever give it back?
