Day 180

[coolerthansora]

Who: Roxas and anyone!
Open: Open
When: Day 180
Where: All over the Bastion
What: Axel is still missing :<
Format: I'll match
Warnings: ...sadness?

Roxas has not been around the Bastion much the past few days. In fact, he's been spending a rather unhealthy amount of time out on the Skyway.

But today he's designated as a rest day, sort of. He's still out and about within the Bastion's walls, and if he's seen you go out on the Skyway before or if he decides you look like a person who might sometimes go, he may approach you with a particular request.

Alternatively, you might catch him spending some time with the chocobos. They're way too big to hide in anyone's hair, but from the anxious way they're nuzzling at his shoulder, they probably want to.

"It's okay, guys. We'll find him."

Comments

Bon has definitely gone out on the Skyway many times, and he has even gone on a couple of the core hunts. So when Roxas approaches, he will stop what he's doing so he can listen to what Roxas has to say. He's assuming it is something serious, given how Roxas looks.

[coolerthansora]

Even after all this time, Roxas is still awkward about approaching strangers, but there's something more important than that here. Anyway, he thinks this guy is a friend of Rin's, so he must be pretty okay.

"Um, I know we haven't really talked, but- could I ask you a favor?"

[kyotoprincess]

At least he doesn't look as intimidating as he did back home? Since he's stopped being as angry all the time.

"It's fine," Bon said honestly. They really needed to help each other out here to survive, and Bon didn't mind helping others when he could, "What do you need?"

[coolerthansora]

Anger is not actually as intimidating to Roxas as normalcy is. With angry people you just get angry right back at them and it kind of works itself out. Sort of. Y'know, with punching and stuff.

"If- you go out on the Skyway, could you keep an eye out for a friend of mine?"

[kyotoprincess]

Punching is definitely a good way to sort stuff out.

But once Bon hears what Roxas wants, he frowns. "Did someone go missing?"

[coolerthansora]

"Axel," Roxas says, watching Bon's face for any recognition. "It's been- about a week since I've seen him."

'About' a week, like he can't pinpoint the day.

[kyotoprincess]

Axel. Bon hadn't really spoken with Axel, but he knew who he was. It was kind of hard not to know who everyone was, what with there being less than fifty people total here.

Bon nods, and he says, "I'll keep an eye out for him. But he can defend himself, right? In case monsters attacked him, or something."

[coolerthansora]

Roxas nods. "He can fight, but... sometimes he's an idiot."

Although, with all his best friends accounted for in the Bastion, Roxas isn't sure what would prompt him to be an idiot in this case. It's not much of a relief.

[kyotoprincess]

Idiots Bon can understand. He's dating an idiot. He also knows that idiots can get lost really easily.

"If he can fight, then he's probably alright for now. Can you fight?"

Because if Roxas can, then the two of them could go out looking for Axel.

[coolerthansora]

Roxas dated this idiot once. Unfortunately, it's really difficult for a Nobody to get lost when they can just open a portal home. Even Axel isn't stupid enough to forget that for more than a day. Something must have happened.

"Yeah, I can." He doesn't put together why Bon is asking though.
