[Day 190-191]
Who: Xion and whoever runs into her
Open: Open like an open thing
When: Day 190-191
Where: Pick a random edge of the Bastion, plus Training Building, plus Kitchens
What: Xion mopes about Axel, Xion practices fighting, Xion can't cook
Format: Whatever you prefer, starting in brackets
Warnings: Shouldn't be anything major? Will change this if there is
====================
Day 190 - Open, edge of the Bastion
[It's not the clock tower. There's not really anything really that close to the clocktower here, besides the ruined one they'd found. And given that that one is out on the Skyway, Xion supposes it's probably too dangerous for a casual visit.
But the edge of the Bastion, and what's beyond it, can be rather impressive - and a little dizzying - just to look at. Easy to lose oneself in. And Xion needs losing herself in something. It's been over half a month since Axel disappeared. And there's no sign of him - anywhere. Roxas hasn't found him, she hasn't found him... nobody has.]
What are we going to do? It's been so long...
[He has to be okay, he has to. She doesn't know what she'd do if something had- Xion's hands clench the edge, her palms digging into the dirt, her knees hanging off the edge.
What will you do, observer? Chase the tiny black-haired girl away from the edge so she doesn't fall? Ask her what's wrong? Sit and commiserate?]
=====================
Both days - Training Building
[Something else that Xion tends to lose herself in is training. The Skyway is dangerous - that's been proven more than enough times of late. Between that, and the fact that she's going to want to keep searching for Axel, among other things... questions about her own right to exist aside, Xion is fairly certain that she doesn't want to
That, and after spending most of her life doing it, there's something... almost uncomfortably yet somehow soothingly familiar about it.
Xion'll be in the melee room, tackling a few of the target dummies, though anybody is welcome to offer to spar with her, if they want. There's probably something unusual about her weapon though...]
======================
Day 191 - Kitchen
[Someone had to be the first to tackle a horrific monstrosity of a cooking attempt after the kitchen got upgraded, and it seems Xion might very well be it. The smell coming from it around midafternoon is... interesting. To say the least. With a layer of plain old burning on top.
If anybody cares to look inside, they'll see Xion is having quite a time with her cooking creation. She was trying to boil something in a pot, though it's hard to tell what it once was - both it and the broth it was floating in have turned into some kind of blackened sludgy mess. Xion herself is covered with bits of the mix, as if it splattered at some point, including an inky drop right on the tip of her nose.
Though unlike her attempts to cook for Pluto, she seems to realize that whatever she made isn't edible, and seems to be confused and somewhat frustrated with it.]

She scoops some of it up and lets it splash back down, yelping a little when one of the droplets hits her hand.]
Ow- [She wipes the drop off with her other hand quickly, dropping the spoon back into the pot] I don't remember it being this bad last time...
no subject
She stares for a moment from the doorway, visibly twitching until she can't take it anymore and storms in.]
That's because you're scaldin' it! How high d'you even have this on?!
[Probably all the way up. Almost everyone new to cooking makes that mistake right off.]
no subject
I... uh... I guess... too much?
no subject
Have you ever cooked before at all?
no subject
[Once.
Maybe more times that were not shown in the manga.]no subject
You're gonna ruin the food and the kitchen at this rate, and I just got this place all nice and upgraded from Colin!
Look, I don't mind other people usin' this place but you gotta know what you're doin' first! What were you even tryin' to make?
no subject
I... Just a creamy chicken stew I tried to make once.
[She thinks. She's not entirely sure all the ingredients were the same as back in the World that Never Was' kitchen]
no subject
Well that's not gonna be any good to anyone now.
[A sigh, then:]
We don't have any chicken right now but I can try to teach you how to make somethin' else.
