I'll be more than willing to hug you, if that's what you want. After all we all shouldn't suffer from this cold now shall we.

[A handshake is nice and all, but she always prefered a hug personally.]

[by_heart]

[He chuckles and lets her hand go.]

Go right ahead. I'm not the most huggable guy, but I won't turn one down, especially if it means not freezing for a while.

[He'd get up and hug her himself, maybe, but his legs feel like they're frozen solid.]

[watchesthesea]

[She nods, the handshake didn't do much but she kenw being close might be better. So moving in, she wrapped her arms around him, hoping that it would help him at least.]

Feeling any warmer?

[by_heart]

[He does feel warmer almost immediately. As to be expected from weird magic cold spells.]

Not freezing to death anymore, at least. Thanks, Kairi.

[Still...]

You're being awful nice. Should I be suspicious?

[Even Sora and Riku didn't know quite what to do when they saw him here the first time.]

[watchesthesea]

[She lets go, a small perky smile upon her lips.]

That's because I'm always nice. Sure, I know you kidnapped me that one time, but I feel like I could give you the benefit of the doubt. I don't believe you'll try and do anything at least, so I might as well be myself.

[And that was all there was to it.]

[by_heart]

I guess I should be honored, huh, Miss Princess? A hug and your trust? Must be my lucky day!

[He smirks but, to his credit, doesn't roll his eyes. So honest and straightforward, all these kids. Makes him look bad.]

[watchesthesea]

Just call me what everyone else does, Kairi.

[She puts her arms behind her back. She still doesn't consider herself a princess, even if she is one of heart.]

[by_heart]

[Honest, straightforward, and sarcasm goes right over their heads. Makes him feel even more like the bad guy.]

Right, right. Kairi it is. Just remember to call me Lea and it's a deal.

[Since she's probably talked to Roxas and heard the whole "Axel Axel Axel" thing already.]

[watchesthesea]

That will be easy enough, Lea. ,small>[Though she is curious...]

Is there a reason for the name change?

[by_heart]

Yeah, right here. [He taps his chest.] Lea's my real name, actually. Putting the "X" in was an Organization thing.

[He waves his hand, as if to brush that away.]

[watchesthesea]

Ohhh, I would have never have thought that. [Never in a million years actually, then again she was kind of out of the loop for most things, but she never minded.]

So I will call you Lea from now on. It's quite a nice name actually.

[by_heart]

Heh. Thanks. [He shrugs.] I guess it'll do.

[He's actually quite flattered, but there's no way he's going to say that.]

Just need to get Roxas to remember it now.

[watchesthesea]

I'm sure he will in his own time.

[To be honest she can somewhat understand why he might not straight away.]

[by_heart]

[Lea shrugs.]

He's not the best at remembering things, since everyone's been messing around with his memories so much. Be patient with him, okay? It usually takes him a few tries to get something.

[watchesthesea]

[She nods, thankfully she has good patience. After all training wise it's been months since she started and has only gone so far.]

I guess considering what happened I can understand and will give him the patience that is needed.

[by_heart]

Thanks. Well, I guess he should be thanking you, but...[He shrugs.]

[watchesthesea]

[She turns around, arms behind her back lightly.]

I'm glad I helped in anyway, but now I have things I must do. It was nice talking to you know and I hope we can talk again.
