[He tsks, and it slips out again.] I never liked homework!

[Roxas' eyes widen again.]

Let's talk about something else.

[by_heart]

Who's been giving you homework? This is the first time I've done it.

[Yeah, so Roxas wants to talk about something else, but Lea is nosy.]

[heartismyown]

[Yeah, that time Lea noticed. He put his palm to his forehead and shook his head.]

No one has.

[Seems like Roxas has his own secrets.]

[by_heart]

[Lea shoves him before rolling back onto his back.]

If no one has, then no complaining. Don't knock it till ya tried it.

[He'll just file this one away for later.]

[heartismyown]

It's not my fault! I didn't say it on purpose!

[Roxas is pretty easy to rile up sometimes.]

[by_heart]

What, so you accidentally don't like homework? You're not gonna get out of it, you know. Ten sentences or you're Galley Slave #2.

[So sayeth Galley Slave #1.]

[heartismyown]

Well I don't really like your homework. [This is true.]

There's...it's happened a couple of times before. When I say things sometimes but it's not me.

[Things you didn't know about Roxas 101.]

[by_heart]

You mean it's Sora? Did that happen, you know, before?

[If it's started since coming here, that could mean...he doesn't want to think about what it could mean.]

[heartismyown]

Yeah, kind of. When I was fighting Riku he was teasing me and whatever I said then made him realize who I was, because it was Sora, not me. I think it happened when I talked to Kairi too. It doesn't happen a lot or anything. I guess Sora doesn't like homework.

[by_heart]

[Well, as long as it isn't something new, he can breathe a little easier. A little.]

Huh. I've always just been me, so I guess I didn't think about something like that happening.

[heartismyown]

I guess not...

[Roxas is frowning a bit though and he sighs heavily. Lea must be getting sick of things like this by now.]

[by_heart]

Never could really wrap my brain around how the whole thing was supposed to work. Did my best, though, so I could keep an eye on you.

[Lea smiles and punches Roxas in the arm, but the smile doesn't quite reach his eyes. It'd been his best, but his best hadn't been good enough in the end.]

[heartismyown]

[It isn't really Lea's fault that Roxas is supposed to be with Sora. Roxas isn't supposed to exist after all. Lea couldn't have known that.

Roxas smiles back though and shoves him lightly, playfully.]

Here I thought you were the smart one!

[by_heart]

[Lea knows quite a bit more than Roxas thinks he does, but now's not the time to discuss it.]

I am the smart one! Smarter than you!

[It's hard to give him that good of a shove from Lea's position, but he tries anyway.]

[heartismyown]

Haha! Maybe not!

[Roxas teases him lightly, evading his hand, kneeling beside him.]

You just think you are. Maybe I'll teach you something!

[by_heart]

Oh yeah? Like what? Skateboard tricks don't count. You bring that thing over here and I'm setting it on fire.

[Lea swats at Roxas' knee once he gets close enough. So there. Take that.]

[heartismyown]

Don't even think about it, if you set it on fire, I'll beat you up!

[Hang on now, Roxas has to think of some stupid inane fact to tell Lea.]

[by_heart]

At least there wouldn't be a skateboard anymore!

[He hears those wheels in his nightmares.]

[heartismyown]

You're just scared of it!

[Logic.]</small. I don't know what to teach you, I'll get back to you!

[by_heart]

See? I'm still the smart one. And I'm not scared of your stupid skateboard either.

[And he's also super mature. So there.]

[heartismyown]

[Yeah, well, Roxas sticks out his tongue at Lea. Jerk that he is.]

Don't you have chores to do or something?

[If nothing else, at least, he looks like he's not distracted anymore.]

[by_heart]

Yeah, I gotta cook things eventually or we're all gonna starve.

[Lea rolls over on his side. He should probably get up and go do that before Thatch catches him.]

What about you? I can't believe they let you wander around the boat all the time.

[heartismyown]

[Roxas grins and shrugs.]

I'm done my chores. Mostly they get me to clean stuff, and I did that.

[by_heart]

Then c'mon. I'll find something for you do to. I'm not slaving over a hot stove while you're out here messing around.

[Lea drags himself to his feet and stretches.]

If I've gotta work, you've gotta work.

[heartismyown]

You don't heat up sandwiches, Lea!
