I won't laugh! Promise!

[With a nod and a grin at the kid, Gaius looks back down at the board before he shifts his foot upon it. He gives a tentative push with the other, his arms wavering as he holds them out once he moves to set his foot on the board with the other.

He keeps his stance loose as the board rolls along, not nearly as fast as Roxas had gone about, but the thief isn't about to send himself careening down the deck any time soon. As the board feels like it begins to slow again, he moves to push a foot off the deck once more, although once he stands again on the board with both feet, he can tell that his balance is compromised, and trying to right it only causes the skateboard to curve in its path.

Gaius hops off after windmilling his arms in one last attempt, watching as the board rolls along without him before it comes to a stop.]

[heartismyown]

[He watches as Gaius gives it a good try, struggles and all.]

Hey! That was pretty good!

[Most people might have a hard time doing it, Roxas knows that. He's also easily impressed.]

[willwork4sugar]

[Glancing over at Roxas, he laughs a little as he goes to pick up the board. He walks back over to the boy to hold it back out.]

You think so? It really is a lot harder than it looks, especially once it's rolling.

[heartismyown]

Yeah, it takes a lot of practice, but still pretty good. Lea won't even try because he doesn't like my skateboard but it's the best present ever! A ghost ship brought it for me, isn't that cool?

[willwork4sugar]

Ghost ship..? Oh! The one that had all the gifts, last winter?

[heartismyown]

Yeah, that's right. I think it was winter. It was right after I came. It had it for me! Isn't that cool?

[willwork4sugar]

Kinda creepy how it knew what to give us, but hey, who can complain when you got something good, right? It gave the crew I was with a bunch of giant candy canes.

[heartismyown]

It's an awesome present! I love skateboarding, it's so fun!

[willwork4sugar]

Well, you've obviously been putting it to good use in that case. [He grins.]

Thanks for the lesson. You know, if you need a tour of the ship or anything, I can show you around, but it's not too confusing to figure out by exploring on your own, either.

[heartismyown]

[He mulls it over.]

I think I'll remember it better if I explore it myself. Thanks though.

[He taps his head.]

I have a hard time remembering things.

[willwork4sugar]

All right then. Guess I'll leave you to it.
