@wishtide   //   everything  i  touch  turns  to  angst

a   small   little   smile   presents   itself   on   pale   skin   with   no   hesitation,      head   tilting   just   an   inch   closer   to   accept   the   plucked   flower   as   it   slipped   through   windswept   white   strands.      mathias   was   glad   they   had   a   chance   to   see   each   other   again,      at   least   once   more.

❛     thanks,      ❜         he   said   simply   though   tone   drew   out,      pondering   his   words   a   moment   before   speaking   again.        ❛     i’m   sorry   i   didn’t   join   you.      i   wanted   to   see   you   again   but……      ❜

mathias   seemed   a   little   lost   for   words,      communication   never   was   his   strong   suit.      gazing   out   around   the   square   he   let   his   heart   do   the   talking.

     Roxas was oblivious to Mathias’s discomfort over his biting into his cold treat and continued to do so. The blond teen hummed, chewing thoughtfully as he followed the other teen’s gaze to the sky. “We don’t get new people here often. It is nice, though. I’m sure you’ll like it.”

     The blond was pulled from his thoughts by Hayner calling out his name, telling him they were heading to the Clocktower. Roxas turned towards the other teen, offering him a smile. “I’m Roxas. How about I buy you an ice cream, and you can come to sit with us?”

the   invitation   caught   mathias   by   surprise   but   he   didn’t   mind   at   all,      an   offer   to   join   for   snacks   was   nowhere   near   the   strangest   thing   that   had   happened   to   him.         ❛     you’re   sure   ?      ❜         though   an   independent   boy   mathias   was   as   friendly   as   he   was   quiet,      agreeing   with   ease   and   a   soft   beaming   smile.        ❛     sure,      if   your   friends   don’t   mind.      ⸻my   name’s   mathias,      nice   to   meet   you,      roxas.      ❜

Hayner had won the race, boasting about it and laughing at the nearly pained expressions on his friends’ faces. Any momentary hostility was forgotten within moments, though. One-track minds worked on getting munny out to buy themselves some Sea Salt ice cream to and head towards the Clock Tower.

They were walking away from the stand, quiet as they worked on beginning to suck and bite at their vibrant blue treats. When they heard a voice, four heads turned in near sync - recognition shining in a set of blue and brown eyes at the bat and a sigh slipping from Olette.

“That’s mine, thank you!” Roxas exclaimed, walking towards the other blond-haired boy as Olette turned, questioning Hayner on where HIS bat was. Roxas recognized his own, though, it had a piece missing right at the bottom of the handle where it had chipped off after a nasty drop. Roxas took the bat, placing it under his arm to hold it as he began to focus on his ice cream again, biting off a corner.

Roxas’s head tilted to the side. He wouldn’t say he knew everyone around town - but he, at least, recognized their faces. He was certain he’d never seen this boy before. Which posed the question, “Are you new around here?”

oh⸻      well,      that   was   fast   !      why   couldn’t   all   his   quests   have   been   this   easy   ?      a   pleasant   smile   bloomed   ‘cross   calm   features,         ❛      no   problem.      ❜         he   did   his   best   to   restrain   a   shudder   as   the   boy   sunk   his   teeth   into   frozen   treat.      oof,      how   anyone   could   bite   into   something   so   cold   was   beyond   him......

❛      yeah,      i   only   just   got   here.      ❜         mathias   explained   happily,      turning   his   head   to   glance   out   at   twilit   sky.         ❛      it’s   a   really   nice   town.      ❜         warm   and   quiet,      just   how   he   liked   it.

Megumi almost took off the head of the other when he appeared at his side. He’d seen him enter the area, but hadn’t paid enough attention–believing him to be just another clueless RGer. Clearly, this was an erroneous assumption. He lowered his arm and the red symbols wrapped around it disappeared.

“Can you fight?” Megumi’s voice was curt as he looked down at the strange weapon the boy was holding. There was something about it, but–no, mustn’t get distracted! Megumi raised his arm again to form an energy construct and fired it into a large grouping.

The construct hovered over them, then began to rain bullets down upon the horde, weakening them but not killing them outright.

watching   momentarily,      unsure   what   exactly   the   other   was   doing,      mathias   studied   the   strange   attacks        (      and   distantly   wondered   how   he   hadn’t   noticed   something   this......      destructive   on   his   own      )

smiling   softly   as   he   readied   himself,      mathias   nodded.        ❛     sure   can.      ❜         he   reassured,      launching   forward   to   slice   his   way   through   a   few   heartless   before   casting   a   wide   ranged   light   spell.      the   dark   beings   erupting   into   puffs   of   black   smoke   as   glimmering   hearts   emerged   and   fluttered   off   toward   the   sky.

❛      looks   to   me   like   you’ve   got   a   lot   of   people   who   look   up   to   you.      ❜         mathias   smiled,      hopping   down   from   the   rock   he’d   been   sitting   upon.         ❛      if   you   ever   need   an   extra   shoulder   to   share   some   of   the   weight   i’d   be   happy   to   help.      ❜

he   knew   it   was   rude   to   simply   grasp   onto   the   back   of   a   stranger   but   mathias   had   been   helplessly   stuck   amidst   a   crowd   for   quite   a   while   now,      pulled   along   by   the   sea   of   people⸻      the   boy   he’d   seen   seemed   to   so   easily   cut   his   way   through,      assumingly   accustomed   to   a   city   this   busy......

It was nearing time for the Struggle Tournament in the quiet little world known as Twilight Town. The teenagers were all so rowdy, looking to prove their strength to each other.

It was no different for Roxas and his friends. He and Hayner had been battling with their struggle bats for hours, being cheered on by Olette and Pence. They were covered in scrapes and bruises, backed by the forever setting sun.

Laughs traveled and jabs were exchanged as they declared themselves too tired to continue on with their practicing, the bats haphazardly thrown to the side. It hadn’t stopped the challenge of a race, though - energy suddenly renewed as the four took off towards the ice cream stand.

the   ocean   blue   bat   he’d   found   looked   well   loved,      nicked   and   scraped   from   frequent   use;      mathias   took   a   moment   to   wonder   how   it   ended   up   alone   on   the   streets.      hopefully   if   he   wandered   around   he   would   eventually   find   its   owner.

continuing   his   curious   exploration   mathias   couldn’t   help   but   take   notice   of   just   how   much   sleepier   this   town   seemed   compared   to   his   own.      he   supposed   that   was   the   difference   between   a   regular   world   and   one   that   was   more   of   a   keyblade   wielder’s   hq   than   anything   else.
