"Dawn." How is that supposed to get me a Keyblade? Sora's got one thanks to the light, that I don't get because of the darkness.

It doesn't make any sense, but I'm fed up with this. I'm tired of staying on the sidelines.

[Sora]

Hey, you feeling better yet?

[/Sora]

Alright, Kairi, it's been almost than a week now. I'd say that's more than enough rest.

So, anyone up to sparring? Next time an attack like this happens I want to be ready. Besides, I'm sure I'm not the only one who could use practice.

About time you came back.

[See the pretty tent? Well anyway, he walks up to Sora.]

Yeah, I'm ready.

[THUDCRASHCLATTERCRACK]

[That would be Sora just dropping all the wood in one big pile. It'll make it easier to keep track of! He did find two stick perfect for cooking hot dogs, and he fishes them out of the pile before moving to the beach and starting to scoop out a wide, shallow bowl in the sand for a fire pit.]

It's good to get away from the buildings, sometimes.

I agree, especially after all that rest.

[Oh Sora. Riku looks amused. at least]

Want me to bring the wood over there?

Just a sec. [he didn't drop it that far away, Riku. Only about four or five feet, really - he doesn't want the stack to catch fire while they're not paying attention, after all.]

I can't believe Kairi made you rest that long. You were fine! Pretty much.

Yeah, but this is Kairi we're talking about. Sometimes she worries a little too much.

[Fine with him, either way. He'll just stay put.]

[And Sora starts building a fire, breaking pieces of wood over his knee.]

She can, I guess. She just doesn't wanna lose us again.

The only way that'd happen is if we wind up leaving.

[tsk, he rolls his eyes]

Whatever winds up happening back home doesn't matter until then.

She says she's lost us here, too - I mean, you guys keep having to remind me of stuff we've already done here. She doesn't need to go through any of that again.

[He's built sort of a wood pyramid over a pile of leaves and pine needles and small twigs and whatnot for tinder; finally pulls a box of matches out of his pocket and tries to light the whole mess. Takes two matches to do so.]

I was here for her the last time you left, so I know that much. It's been almost four months, though, and I'm still here.

[Better than rubbing sticks together, at least! Riku's still waiting for the all clear, though.]

Yeah, she just wants to make sure you stay here.

[Riku gets a grin at about the same time as the tinder starts going up in smoke, and Sora sits back on his heels.] Okay! Let's just give it a second to catch.

I don't plan on leaving any time soon. Not when I know what'll happen when I do leave.

[Darkness, do not want. Anyway, he'll head on over once it's caught and whatnot.]

[orz, Riku. Stop making references to the inevitable Facts of Their Lives that only lead to you getting annoyed and them worrying about driving you away.]

Got the food?

One second.

[aaand grabbing the hotdog stuff now before heading back over]

Got it.

Great! I'm starving.

[Spears a hot dog and starts it cookin'.]

You're not the only one.

[As does he~ Yay food.

It's a good thing Riku grabbed buns and condiments, which he placed over to the side.]

[Doesn't put out the fire after they're done, as it is indeed starting to get a little chilly. Seems like summer's over at last. Tosses his stick into it to burn.]

Wonder how long we're gonna be here.

[And that's one thing that'll take serious getting used to, given that the islands were almost always warm. There goes his stick, too, and then he leans back.]

Who knows? Some people have been here for over a year.

[Yeah, the kids are gonna shiver. A lot. Maybe they should think about getting extra blankets.]

Or longer than that. And we still don't really know anything about this place.

[And getting new clothes, since island attire really won't cut it.]

Could be ages before we do find out.

[Yes. Though Sora's dealt with snow before, but not on an extended and personal basis like this will be, probably.]

With everything going on lately, you'd think we'd be learning something. We probably are, really.

[Oh Sora, you and your hero business. At least you got a Santa outfit (in Final Mix), ff.]

They explained a little when I talked to them, but not much.

Maybe they just take pride in being vague.

[That outfit rocked. He was like a little zombie Santa.]

I don't think they can say much. Something'll go wrong if we know as much as they do.

[He's aware of the unfortunate implications of that statement, but still... he's choosing to be positive about this.]

You have a point, but that doesn't make things any easier.

But then, there's no fun in everything being too easy.

Yeah, but I'd like to be able to put a dent in that barrier.

[Wouldn't they all.]

Why, so those soldiers can get back in?
