Day 195 / Moon Phase
Who: Saix and anyone awake
Open: Open
When: Day 195, at night
Where: Near the Monument
What: The Lunar Diviner lives up to a portion of his title.
Format: Any
Warnings: Nothing planned
Ever since the last Core brought a proper moon to the Bastion, Saix felt himself become actually relieved. Being without a moon's presence had left a constant itch in the back of his mind, something that drove him mad some nights and unable to get a proper rest. It'd almost become constant at this point, aggravating white noise.
With the moon back, it's like all the tension leaking from his very bones. It might be a little bit painful- new moons take some adjusting to begin with and he's been without one for so long. That makes him think, however... If that's the reaction he gets just being in its presence again, what will it be like when he taps into its power proper?
So the last week or so's worth of nights have been spent locked in his apartment and then tearing it apart as he's learned to control his powers all over again. Something his neighbors have probably become well aware of, and received little actual information from the Nobody besides "No one's getting hurt so it's fine."
But tonight... tonight Saix is certain of himself. So, tonight, if anyone isn't sleeping and is instead wandering about the Bastion, they might come apart the small group. There's the Berserker and a golden retriever sitting a good distance away, just in case, and there's Saix sitting crosslegged by the monument with the moon shining overhead and his face turned up towards it. Anyone paying attention might notice a subtle blue aura going along the man's body.

"I don't," he concedes, although unlearning nearly a decade's worth of behavior is going to be... troublesome, at the very least. "But that doesn't mean I know how to think the opposite. What things set her off, then?" If Roxas even knows, anyway. Still, Saix will make the effort. It's... something to start with, isn't it?
no subject
"Don't- ever act like she's less of a person. She can do and feel as much as anyone."
no subject
"I'll keep that in mind then," he finally answers, leaning back a bit more to focus on the moon overhead. "But again- no promises. She doesn't seem to care for me to begin with, after all."
no subject
"...how do you treat the other people who put up with you anyhow?" There are some, right? It's not just Roxas now?
no subject
"You realize I might end up talking about Barry at some point since he was one of those who put up with me?" He just wants to make sure before he goes on.
no subject
"I- guess that's okay." Wait. Saix actually thought to bring that up. "Thanks for asking."
Wow, it still feels really weird to say thank you to Saix, but he feels like he should do something to encourage that kind of thinking. Axel's not here to do it, after all.
no subject
Saix is well aware that Barry is no longer someone they'll readily interact with- anytime soon, at least, if not ever. Still, he did count as one of the people who tolerated him and they talked. So with that settled, Saix gives a slight nod to himself. "In Vatheon, he and I tended to talk about a variety of things. The people that arrived there, discussing emotions and what counts as them, cooking... Anya have talked about things as well." A pause as he thinks. "We danced once, during the festival."
no subject
He probably should have expected this to sound like Saix giving one of those reports he was such a stickler for, until-- "You... danced." This is really difficult to imagine. "Was that the same day we got drunk?"

"Do you... you know... like her?" Can Saix like people yet. "Or were you just trying it out?"

Roxas nods. It's a bit easier to grasp knowing it was this Anya person's idea instead of Saix's. "Well- that's good. That's the kind of stuff friends do for each other."

He's danced with friends before. Axel included, so his face falls a little. What was that about negative emotions?

They don't need to talk about missing Axel.
