[what a dad - not that lune doesn't understand. or rather - ]
Mikazuki Munechika. You may address me as you wish. 'Lune' has become rather charming to hear. Perhaps this is what it means to receive a nickname?
[it's endearing!! just like roxas,,]
You are quite sharp - he wished to hide it for some time, but I am glad that the truth has come to light. To be known by his friends and allies... I think it has brought him peace in ways that my company cannot.
It is a name meaning 'crescent moon'.... and it is the one most familiar to me, so to hear it on your tongue is rather soothing.
[so it's not like he's going to reject it?]
Mm, the bonds between people are rather powerful. I hope you'll join me in the endeavors of keeping his spirits lifted, moving forward. It is a job I believe only you and a few others are capable of.
I would say so. I think it's charming, at times. Even so, I am quite happy to have the chance to be more myself in times like these.
[being so business-y in front of others isn't really mikazuki's style, but he knows he's gotta provide answers too instead of just being a flighty grandpa]
I had a feeling there was no need.
Even so, I had to make the request. It is also one of my responsibilities and greatest joys to care after him, after all.
... I have heard some matters. Perhaps that is why I would like to encourage others to be kinder to him, to make up for the trouble that might wander his way.
You can if you want, but no, it's a saying. All that stuff-- insults, criticisms-- it runs off you like water off a duck's back. 'Cause ducks can't get wet.
Perhaps so - I am still learning to decipher the ways in which humans will express the emotions they feel.
But even so, even if it is their displeasure, it is my responsibility to answer. I would only hope they would sooner take out their frustrations on myself than the young one.

[lune is pleased with this? i hate how proud this stupid grandpa is with his efforts]
I suppose I can - though I would grow rather jealous if you were interested in only speaking to the young one face to face.
[and there's a tilt of lune's head, now curious]
You've been made aware of his identity. I was wondering when he would find it fit to tell you.
no subject
Guess I'll just have to live with seeing your terrifying, horrifying face. There a spooky name behind it, too?
[ his grins turns fond at the talk of roxas, though, and he leans his chin on his hand ]
Hmmm. I had it pretty much figured out by the end of that first week, to be honest. He's never exactly been subtle about... well, anything.

Thank you, for that.
no subject
Mikazuki... I kinda like both, to be honest. Lune fits you, but I like knowing somethin' not everyone else does.
[ let's not delve too deep into that. anyway he waves off lune's thanks with a shrug ]
No need to thank me. I was happy about it too. Besides, I didn't have to be sharp. He's my best friend. A hood can't hide that.

Mikazuki means moon, an' Roxas got the sun... the universe really has a sense of humor.
[ regardless, he grins ]
'Course. You know you didn't even have to say anything, right?

I'm glad he's got you looking out for him, too. [ and then, to make up for it: ] You wouldn't believe the kinda trouble he gets into.

[easily

[there is a frown at that as mikazuki just looks concerned]
Hmm... I wonder - how may I change my countenance to make myself an easier target?
[he's
serious]
no subject
It's 'cause he's got a temper. He's reactive an' defensive. It's obvious he's affected when people take it out on him. You're like... a duck's back.
[ what ]
no subject
[what does that mean]
Am I being insulted? Is this already a test...? [hmmMMMM] Am I meant to respond irritatedly?

[next on mikazuki's to do list: hang out with some ducks
anyway]
In truth, many people are quite kind to me even here. I do not believe that I have had much reason to be offended to begin with.
[or if they? acted aggressively? he might not have realized?]
no subject
I think you just haven't noticed when people have been mad at you.

[ axel talking about people like he is not a people, good job ]
no subject
However I have also sought to change tactics and merely encourage others to be kind instead.
[mikazuki is playing the field]
no subject
[ he sounds a bit worried about it, but. ah, right, he came here for more than one reason, ]
Oh, that thing you told me to do, I did it. [ he jazz hands vaguely ] Ta-daaa.
no subject
Would you care to remind me of the subject matter?
[mikazuki, no]
no subject
Not even a little.
[ please he hates this so much ]
no subject
mikazuki just brings up a hand to muffle his laughter]
Not even with myself?
[when he already knows what was said....]
no subject
[ he has shared so much he didn't wanna leave him alone ]
no subject
[mikazuki looks
so happy with all this, nice job axel]
Then you may change your power as you wish.
