[Roxas doesn't seem to mind being hugged though, he just grins.]

Yeah, it's good. I like it here. It's kind of like a vacation cause I worked a lot before for the Organization. I was supposed to disappear but I came here instead, which is pretty good.

[booyaka_boom]

That's true! I guess it kinda is...

*And Selphie, at least, was working on making this place feel more like a vacation than the grim reality it had been for her recently*

Then I hope you're enjoying it as best you can!

[heartismyown]

[Roxas nods a bit.]

Yeah, I'm enjoying it. Don't worry about that!

[Things for Roxas, for the most part have been going pretty well, except when Lea is doing something dumb and worrying him.]

[booyaka_boom]

*Selphie smiles lightly at Roxas and nods*

Good. I'm really glad.

*And she is glad, that being in this place hasn't been a horrible experience for everyone*

And when my bruises are better maybe we can spar again, and we can enjoy that too.

[heartismyown]

Sure, okay, if you want. I haven't sparred very much with people, I just kind of showed up knowing how to do this stuff.

[He picks up some lemonade himself now and chugs it down in one go.]

[booyaka_boom]

Well, you sure surprised me and just how good you are! You're stronger than you look.

*She grins and pours her own cup, giving Roxas a refill too*

That's part of the fun of being so cute - people can underestimate you.

[heartismyown]

[Roxas grins.]

I beat Axel pretty good! I almost beat Riku too, I'm pretty strong. It's okay if people don't think so, then I can surprise them.

[booyaka_boom]

You sure are! And if you keep sparring and practising, it'll only get better.

In fact, I think you'd make a pretty good SeeD!

[heartismyown]

Hmmm maybe I could get better...

[Roxas never really thought about it.]

What's a SeeD?

[booyaka_boom]

There's always room for improvement!

*Selphie grins and gives a salute*

A SeeD is me! That's what we call the soldiers from Garden, the school I was at before I came here.

[heartismyown]

You went to school? What's it like? Did you have homework? Did you like it?

[booyaka_boom]

Well, it was a big academy for people who wanted to be soldiers.

*Leaving out the part that she was sent there at a young age anyway*

The Garden itself is pretty big and it can fly! I've been to a few different ones... Our homework was mostly training, but sometimes events, and dancing too. I loved it there. I wanna do my instructor training now. But, something tells me I've maybe missed the deadline...

[heartismyown]

It can fly? What does that mean? What do you do as a soldier?

[Selphie gets the pleasure of listening to Roxas' questions.]

[booyaka_boom]

*And Roxas gets the pleasure of having a young woman who is used to asking lots of questions, and really doesn't mind answering them - chatterbox. But she needs more lemonade first*

It means the whole building can -whoosh!- up and lift off and move to another part of the world. They don't go anywhere very often though.

Before I came here, I just got back from a really important and scary mission, where a sorceress was basically trying to take over the whole world, and she possessed some of my friends to do it. I don't like possession. Not one little bit. So we had to go and try and stop all the bad guys - they started off as little bad guys, just soldiers and stuff, but then turned out to be something much more evil. But hey, a soldier's gotta do what a soldier's gotta do. We fight to bring peace to the world! It's pretty awesome.

[heartismyown]

That sounds really exciting, flying around on a building. Is it fun? Did you get to do it?

I don't think possession is a good thing, it's like what happened here right? I didn't really like that. I don't know much about evil or good or anything like that really, but I guess you were fighting for what you wanted to.

[booyaka_boom]

I got to fly around in it, but I didn't get to drive it. I'm pretty good at flying spaceships, though!

*She giggles at that, missing the fun she used to have with the Ragnarok*

Mmhmm. Just like that. It's the worst thing ever. But you're right - as long as people are fighting for something, then that's better than being violent for no reason.

[heartismyown]

What's a spaceship?

[Roxas tilts his head a little.]

Well don't most people fight for something? I mean, maybe not me at the beginning..I mean I was, but I didn't know I was or...I don't know. Not me, but don't normal people do that?
