[Open] The Sun Is Setting, But The Dawn’s A New Premiere

Who: Roxas and YOU!
When: All throughout Maiuril
Where: Mostly Aefenglom
What: River cleaning, 'skateboard' practice, breaking and entering, and other things
Warnings: None for now, will post in thread headers for anything

1 - River Cleanup
[Helping to clear out the river of garbage seemed like a good job for the month. The other Merrows could get some clean water to swim in, and the shores would be clear of garbage for anyone who wanted to relax and take a quick swim. Honestly, it seemed like a nice job, especially with the weather being so nice!]

[However, while Roxas is not adverse to hard work, he hadn't anticipated how much garbage there was to clean. And the weather, while nice, did mean it was easy to work up a sweat while he worked. Not to mention all his extra fur growth means he's getting hotter than normal. He's already stripped off his vest, working only in his tank top, but he's considering even removing that.]

[After an hour or so of working like this, Roxas straightens and rests his hands on his hips, stretching his back as he looks at whoever is nearby helping him work.]


Hey... can we take a break? I'm getting really hot here.

2 - Skater Boy
[As interesting as life in Aefenglom is, Roxas finds that he misses a couple creature comforts that he had back in Twilight Town. And while he can't exactly summon forth the things he misses from home, he can try to recreate a couple of them.]

[The simplest thing he tries to make is a skateboard. With the city as it is it's not like he can find a skateboard shop in town, but he can scavenge up a few supplies. It's not much, just a plank of wood and a few scavenged wheels, but it'll do. And while Roxas isn't a handyman, he has a knack for synthesis, so the concept of taking random items and putting them together isn't entirely foreign to him. When he's done, it's not the prettiest thing, but it looks serviceable enough to try out.]

[For those walking through the streets, you might notice the Turnskin out in quiet streets or empty alleys testing out his homemade skateboard. He just practices rolling along with it at first, but he does attempt to do a few simple kickflips with it, just to test it out.]


3 - Breaking and Entering..?
[With the weather growing a lot nicer, Roxas has been craving another desire from home; namely, a place to sit and watch the sunset. Sure this world might not have the golden sunsets of his home, but he still enjoys sitting and watching the sun sink down across the horizon as evening gives way to nightfall.]

[But it's not just the sunset he craves; he also wants a spot to watch it from. And sure, climbing up to the roof of the house he and the other Keyblade Wielders isn't bad, but he kind of wants another vantage point. Something like the Clock Tower from Twilight Town; high enough up to see not only the sunset, but the sprawling city as well.]

[Throughout the month, Roxas will have various evenings where he scouts out tall buildings to try to climb. Sometimes they're old, abandoned buildings no one bothers with, and sometimes they're smack dab in the middle of a busy street. These areas might not exactly be open to the public, but Roxas is trying to be discreet. He might still catch the attention of an observing passerby, though, whether it be him sneaking into a back door or from the roof itself of said buildings.]

[It... might look like breaking and entering at first, but Roxas really isn't trying to cause trouble. He just wants to find That Perfect Spot.]

Of course.

[ The break won't be something that can last for too long. Not if they want to get as much work done today as possible. But, Aqua knows its important for him to not overdo it either. ]

I can find some water for you, if you'd like.

[ That may help cool him down a little. ]

[ There's a pause on Aqua's end, and she extends a wing out. ]

Here, this may help. ... I've heard that my wings are a bit cold.

[ She offers a small, almost uncertain smile. ]

I'm sure that your fur isn't helping right now.

Have you?

[ Aqua asks, curious. Was it work related to the fact that he was a keyblade wielder? Or something else entirely? ]

... I saw in Demyx's memory that you were part of the Organization. I had no idea before then.

[ She'd only known the Organization as the ones that they had fought in the Keyblade Graveyard. ]

[ Aqua falls silent then, her fingers balling into fists. Xemnas was a part of Xehanort, wasn't he? How many people did he manipulate - hurt until he was stopped? ]

... Xemnas and Xehanort both - they've deceived so many people. He should have been stopped sooner, rather than later.

... Riku did? But, I don't understand. If you wanted to put a stop to him, why would Riku stop you?

[ It didn't make sense to her. It was no secret that those connected to Xehanort were up to no good. ]

[Sora is out and about on his day when he happens upon one of his favorite turnskins playing out in the streets. Of course Sora comes up to him with a wave to see what he's up to. And upon seeing the makeshift skateboard he can't help but gawk.]

Whoa! Hey, Roxas! Did you make that?

[He's not the best at skateboarding himself, Roxas has always been much better and much more into it. But he's curious! Is Roxas going to be able to pull off the legendary kick-flip on that thing?]
