"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.

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?

No... just in case we needed a way out, or something. Being stuck in one place just makes us all a bunch of targets.

[As has already been proved.]

Except that out there we're targets too.

They want to make all of us their sacrifices.

Yeah, but if we could go in and out when we wanted to...

[It's a dream, Sora. It'll never happen.]

Sora, I don't like being cooped up either, but would you really want to risk that?

...No. I just really want a way out.

[Droop. The poor kid is used to being able to solve a lot of problems with the keyblade; unfortunately, they don't exactly apply here.]

That makes one of us.

[nope...he's in no hurry to leave. At least, not compared to him wanting to leave the islands.]

[Wow, this is going to be a lot more awkward than either of them thought. Just how more opposite can they get now, anyway? Yeah, he has absolutely no clue what to say to that.]
