"Used to when I first started. Don't really need it much anymore." By the time they got out into the wilderness, he was feeling a bit more comfortable about this. It had been a while since he spent too much time with someone new and he was a bit rusty at it.

"Yeah yeah! Those little guys are awesome!" She flew along, the strange feeling getting stronger and stronger the further away from the kingdom they went.

He considered that as they walked; no one in the streets were really paying attention to them, because it was nowhere near the strangest thing going on at the time.

"Did you wear a special adventuring outfit or were you the 'whatever I got' type? I can picture you in some nice leather armor." Leading him out of the main kingdom she began to recognize where she first met the princess.

He kept his arms folded, just watching her with amusement in his eyes as she tried to push him.

She quickly gave up her endeavor and took off ahead of him, "Think of me as your lovely pixie companion, I will guide your way."

That made him role his eyes.

"You're so confuuuuuuusing." Her shoulders slumped as he deflected. "But I'll take it! I've been sensing something really weird a ways away from the kingdom. I wanna go check it out." She latched onto his arm and tried to pull him along, finding this task difficult when he was a stack of muscle. "Hhhhhnf! Dammit you're too handsome to move!"

"Huh I can't say I get it, but if you're happy with it I guess that's all that matters." It was clear she still had more to say on it but decided to hold her tongue, something told her it was best that way.

A shrug.

Kira let a moment of silence build between them before she said, "Do you have anything you want to do now that you're 'retired' from adventuring? What do you even live for now?" Her eyes stayed on his, as if trying to discern the answer for herself.

“Never had a keyblade. Barely used any weapons. Always been about hand-t’-hand combat.” Once the supplies were safely inside, he turned.

"A little yeah, you're this strong and you're being a retired, old, hot, man? Just feels like there's more left for you to do." It may just be because it was hard for her to ever imagine slowing down while she still had power to move.
