I'm not counting anybody out. We still have a few days. But if it was just a set up, what even was the point?

[leaberator]

... I wish I could tell you.

[cyclists]

...are you okay? You keep asking me, but I haven't asked you.

[leaberator]

'Course. It takes a lot more than that to get me down.

[ ... and, outside liar's land-- ]

... 'Sides, you guys are still around so far.

[cyclists]

Right..that's true. [He, like, half-believes that because he knows how Axel is and also he's seen enough memories by now to figure Axel wouldn't say anything anyway.]

It's the "so far" I'm worried about. I think Xion's scared of what's going to happen to me and Lune, and Naminé brought me cheesecake to prepare for tomorrow.

[So. They're doing fineish.]

[leaberator]

[ he hums ]

... We gotta take it one day at a time. There's no point worrying about the future if we don't even know what tomorrow's gonna end up looking like.

[cyclists]

I have more answers than you do for once, remember? [Just pointing out that he knows exactly what happened last night.] But last week wasn't so bad. You guys worked well together.

[leaberator]

[ that's not what he said last week but you know what he will let that pass ]

Hey, you might know what happened last night, but you still don't know what's gonna happen tomorrow. [ :T ] Not like I was bein' literal in the first place.

[cyclists]

[Convenient narrative, okay??]

I guess so. [:T] ...after tomorrow, Lune and I are going to have to figure out what our next plan is. I think we want to get past this before we make any final decisions.

[leaberator]

Yeah. Can't really decide anything until we know for sure what things are gonna look like.

[cyclists]

So what do we do with the rest of today until then?

[leaberator]

Take a nap.

[ that's his answer for everything ]

[cyclists]

Funny. Think that's even an option for either of us?

[leaberator]

Prolly not, but it definitely should be.

[cyclists]

When this is all over, all five of us can take a vacation before we get back to work finding Sora. [That's not gonna happen, they'll all rest for maybe a day and immediately get back to it. Still, it's nice to daydream sometimes. And sometimes weird to include Isa, but whatever.]

[leaberator]

My vacation is gonna be taking a thirty-six hour nap! You guys can drag me wherever you want, I'm not waking up.

[cyclists]

You're gonna be too heavy to drag! You can sleep when we get to wherever we're going.

[leaberator]

[ he cackles ]

Too heavy? Work on those muscles! What kinda Keyblade wielder are you, if you can't even carry me places?

[cyclists]

You're way bigger than a Keyblade! That's different! [Axel rude!!] And you're really tall.

[leaberator]

You've got two!

[ are two keyblades as tall as axel. probably not. ]

I keep telling you guys, it's not that I'm really tall, it's that you're all really short.

[ but he is really tall too. ]

[cyclists]

And you're bigger than both of them combined. You're taller than most of the people here, too. [Just gently pointing that out.] Does that mean they're all really short?

[leaberator]

Yeah. Everyone but Shess is freakishly tiny.

[cyclists]

[He just. Pushes at him.] Shut up. [He doesn't sound mad, but still rude??]

[leaberator]

[ he cackles and pushes down at roxas ]

It's not your fault. Maybe you'll get a growth spurt one day.

[cyclists]

[UGH why are you his fav???]

You could at least sound like you believe that. [Somewhere in the distance, Wednesday and Roxi are probably flinging sand everywhere and still running back and forth with the paper airplane.]
