[Certainly Roxas has been observing people but he has yet to approach one of the giant walking turtles. They seem pretty cool, but he isn't so sure what to make of them. He's never seen anything like them.

He was exploring the ship, but now he's decided to trail Leonardo around covertly in the shadows. He's relatively skilled at this, so it might be difficult to notice. What do giant turtles do?]

[the_dancing_dork]

[Leo wasn't doing much at the moment, he had done his morning training and is currently just wandering around the deck. But his ninja senses were by no means off, eh felt something following him. Raph or Mikey maybe? He doubted Raph, though Mikey was possible.

But there was one way to find out. He stops moving.]

You know, you don't have to follow me from the shadows if you're just seeing what I'm doing.

[heartismyown]

Eheheh...[He laughs nervously, showing himself.]

I was just um, watching.

[the_dancing_dork]

I can see. You muse be one of the new crew members we got a few days ago.

[heartismyown]

Yeah, that's right. Hi. I'm Roxas.

[He offers a friendly smile.]

I left for a few days to visit my friends, but...I came back.

[the_dancing_dork]

Well that explains why I haven't seen you around. I'm Leonardo, but eveyone just calls me Leo.

[heartismyown]

[He nods a bit.]

I was up in the crow's nest for awhile too.

[There's a beat.]

So...you're a turtle?

[the_dancing_dork]

Yes... that doesn't freak you out, does it?

[He was used to being accepted for being a turtle at this point, but it still didn't hurt to ask.]

[heartismyown]

No, but I never pet a turtle before. Can I touch you?

[Roxas sometimes has odd requests.]

[the_dancing_dork]

[Well... he raised a brow at the request, but nevertheless held his arm out.]

Umm... sure, I guess.

[heartismyown]

[Roxas puts his hand on Leo's arm for a moment before pulling it away, curiosity satisfied.]

Definitely not fluffy like the birds. Or the pink pony.

[the_dancing_dork]

Well turtles are reptiles, so we're pretty scaly. Especially compared to birds or ponies.

[heartismyown]

Really? Also, you're a really big turtle right? What do big turtles do? Do you eat anything good? Do you like sea salt ice cream?

[the_dancing_dork]

Well... yes, I'm a man-sized turtle. We do what most people our age would, except that we're also ninjas. We eat stuff like pizza, so yes. And... I do't think we've ever had sea salt ice cream before.

[heartismyown]

[Sorry Leo, you think you didn't get out much?]

I don't really know what that is. How old are you? What kinds of things do you do? Do turtles have hearts? What's pizza?

[He's a tad excitable.]

[the_dancing_dork]

[How many questions did this kid have?]

Well... I'm sixteen, I do thinks like skateboarding, meditating, and ninja training, yes turtle shave hearts, and pizza... well it's a king of food.

[heartismyown]

[His eyes shine brightly.]

Isn't skateboarding really really cool? I love skateboarding! What do you do for ninja training? What's meditating? Is pizza good? Did you ever have sea salt ice cream?

[the_dancing_dork]

Whoa, whoa kid. Can you limit it to one question at a time? I'm starting to lose track of what you're saying.

[heartismyown]

Oh, um, okay, sure! I can try!

[He pauses. Wait, what did he ask again? Oh right. The most important question.]

Do you like sea salt ice cream?

[the_dancing_dork]

I've never had it before, so I can't say. I like the normal kind though. Hmm... maybe I can see if Mikey can learn how to make it.

[heartismyown]

Well I know a guy that can make it! I'll ask him when I see him again and maybe I can bring some here!

Oh yeah, what's ninja training? And...and the other thing you said. Medi-something.

[the_dancing_dork]

Well ninja training is another term for practicing the art of ninjutsu, which involves martial arts and stealth techniques. Meditation is part of it, it's where you clear your mind and spirit so that you can focus on things better.

[heartismyown]

How do you clear your mind? What is ninjutsu like?

[He tilts his head a little, confused but interested in learning more.]

[the_dancing_dork]

Well... it's hard to explain what clearing your mind is like, you have to experience it to understand. And ninjutsu... it lets you let out stress and make your body feel better and stronger. It's also not easy to explain.

[heartismyown]

Oooh! Could you teach me to do those things? When I want to let out stress, I guess I hit things with my keyblades. I want to be stronger! Can you teach me that?
