[Voice; Early afternoon of April 16th]
... Of course, he realizes his dilemma when he holds the two cones in both hands and stares down at his journal. Gdit. No available hands. For a moment he hops up and down and tries to open the pocket by sliding his leg against the chair, but to no avail.
Once Regal asked if he needed help, he sheepishly accepted, and soon enough, Xion might find a beaming Luke calling to her.]
Xion! Xion, hey, are you there?
no subject
... only to see the love of her life making a complete and total dork out of himself.
Unable to help a grin of her own, Xion sets down her things to pick up the journal instead, unable to keep the amusement and affection out of her expression. ]
I'm here, I'm here! What's up?

[Action; Noon of June 14th]
Perfect weather for what he and Xion were about to do, but it was still way too damn hot. Luke might not think much of the ocean right now (in fact, he viewed it as a death trap of sorts), but right now he wanted some kind of relief against this stupid weather.
Luke stands by the teleporter where they agreed to meet, a scowl on his face as he crosses his arms and glares down at the machine, dressed in his red swim trunks, a sleeveless white shirt, flip flops and a towel tied around his waist. Hopefully Xion wouldn't see that look on his face... Honestly, Luke was very, very hesitant about going to the ocean. After his last run in with it, where he would have drowned if it weren't for Asch saving his life... He's not been very keen on going there again.
But this was for Xion. She needed some time away from the village, something to get her mind off of the horror of the draft. And what better way than to take her somewhere she really likes? He'd promised her, after all.
... Still. Luke wishes he fully learned how to swim before agreeing to this. For now, all he can do is wait for her to show up and hope that he won't have to go too deep into the ocean.]
[Action; Noon of June 14th]
What if.
She'd spent a lot of time thinking about that question after Axel had been attacked, too.
But Sora is in the house. As long as he's there, he's safe, because Vanitas can't get inside anymore. And she's so emotionally exhausted she can't stand it. They've all been standing vigil over their friend -- their guiding light -- and she knows that just staying in the house won't make him get better any faster. Plus, she'd almost ... almost been feeling a little more like herself, after spending that night with Luke, after going to spend time with Hiccup on his roof. Almost...
She knows she needs this, as strange as it feels to go do something fun in the midst of so much pain. So she shows up at the appointed place in a pretty pink dress with a bag over her shoulder. She looks tired, but she's got a tiny smile on ... that gets a little bigger when she sees how he's dressed. She'll come up behind him and gently touch his shoulder. ]

[Action; Evening of July 14th]
Thankfully, Asch had agreed to cut his hair after Luke had messily chopped the majority of it off, so his style was more or less what it had been before he turned into... that part of himself. So, it's with such a familiar style that he carries his pillow and blanket under one arm and heads towards the Battle Dome's clinic, keeping his head down and his expression somber. He would've done this a lot sooner if he didn't have responsibilities to own up to... It would've been so easy to just go to Xion while she was recovering and spend the rest of his exile from the rest of the population there. But Luke would never run from such heavy responsibility again. Never. Even if it meant only coming by for a visit, only to see that she was still asleep, or had woken up and mistaken him for a dream before drifting off again...
Now, however, he was planning on staying for as long as she needed... wanted him there. After last week, he wouldn't blame her if she decided she didn't want to see him. The thought makes him purse his lips unpleasantly, but it's something he still accepts. He was a terrible person... And she had put up with him all that time.
But he wanted to stay by her side. He wanted to be there, to make sure that she'd recover, to be her support when she needed it. It's with that thought in mind that Luke reaches the Battle Dome and walks to Xion's room, avoiding anyone's gaze who might have passed him by. He still very much wanted to be away from everyone... But this was something he had to do.]
[Action; Evening of July 14th]
But she did wake up this morning, for the first time since the attack. Only for a few confused, bleary seconds though, before she fell right back to sleep. The rest of the day has proceeded in much the same way, cycling in and out of consciousness.
Perhaps luckily for Luke, she's right on the cusp of waking when he enters. She even shifts slightly, though she doesn't open her eyes. ]

[ action, afternoon july 15th ]
it's something deeply ingrained in him. memories of a rainy night and once too many trips with billy make it hard for him to find any comfort in the pristine white... if he had it his way, he'd never have to set foot in another one again.
but he does. while he heals fast, others don't. other people need this. he's always at a bit of a loss when it comes to things like this. ]
Hey, Xion. [ he won't stay long. she needs her rest... but he has some encouragement. a project he was working on - originally a lazing wolf, transformed into the embodiment of strength. The proud lion (http://www.toddswaim.net/wallpiecemtlion.jpg) is small enough to be worn on a necklace, but just as detailed as a large scale statue. ]
[ action, afternoon july 15th ]
She can't sit up, really, but she does turn her head to look at him, blinking. At first she's only looking at him, but then her gaze falls to the carving he's holding. Her brows knit, and she looks back up at his face questioningly. ]

If she finds a redhead around when she comes today, she'll dispatch him for a while. If not...well, problem solved. It seems the others who work at this clinic have done their own excellent job at caring for Xion, particularly making use of the 'technology' here.
Mia will sit for a few minutes, waiting to see if she wakes.]
[action - morning of July 15th]
But today should go a little better for her. She's gotten a lot of rest, her brief conversations with Roxas, Luke, and Noel (for a total of less than 20 minutes) the previous day notwithstanding. So when she wakes up the morning of the 15th, it's with greater lucidity than anything she's managed so far.
It's about five minutes after Mia's arrival that she wakes up. She's still hazy, at first, not noticing Mia is there as she blinks at the ceiling. ]

...well, he took care of that himself. It was a bittersweet victory in his mind, but something he was still proud of even though he shouldn't have been. Hence why he found himself sitting in Xion's room at the clinic by her bedside, staring into space waiting for her to wake up. He knew he had to deliver the message to her, but he wasn't going to wake her up until she was ready. Come on, Xion. Roxas can only be patient for so long.]
[action - morning of July 14th]
He'll wait at least an hour -- a long, quiet hour -- while she sleeps, perfectly still. The hour will pass -- a few minutes more -- before all of a sudden, her eyelids flutter. Are you paying attention, Roxas? ]

And by announcing his presence, we mean that a small wispy coyote pup is running into the room, lifting his front paws up onto the edge of the bed and barking at her. Draco himself won't come in just yet though. Xion can have the warm happiness radiating from Padfoot instead.]
[Action - afternoon of July 15th]
EEK!
Xion startles back into wakefulness, biting back a wince when the movement jars her various injuries. But then she blinks at the silver-white creature, taking a moment to register who it belongs to.
Once she does, a smile spreads across her face, and she looks up at the door. ]

...it's not a pretty sight, seeing the state she's in. It hurts to see her, and there's a ton of what-ifs clouding in Noel's head, but really, what could she have done?
Maybe... she won't stay long. Xion needs her rest, but-- at the same time, should she stay for a while? Maybe she'd like the company... maybe?
Not wanting to make a lot of noise, Noel quietly tip-toes over to Xion's bedside to see if she's awake.]
[action - afternoon of July 14th]
It's in one of those windows that Noel comes in, and at first Xion is not really aware of her, instead just staring blankly, deeply confused, at the opposite wall. ]

When he pops into see Xion in the afternoon, he still looks a little uneasy, but he wanted to come and see how she was doing. Half of him is sort of hoping she's asleep, while the other half is hoping she's awake.]

Eugh. Technology.
But, eventually, she will arrive, slipping in quietly with something held behind her back to check if Xion's awake. Her internal justification for not coming to visit before was to allow Xion time to recover and to spread out her visits some, but there's also a healthy amount of "avoiding danger" that kept her from actually saying anything on Kairi's entry.]

When she sees who it is...

{action | early morning of July 15th}
Their interaction some time before had been brief, but there was still that faint glimmer of recognition. In a place like this, with hundreds of people, some coming and others going... Hope imagined it'd be easy to forget someone. A memory snuffed out as rapidly as the flame on his candle—which just had the misfortune of flickering out. Wincing a bit, stumbling over one of the (thankfully empty) beds as the darkness takes him by surprise, Hope cups his hand over the thing and brings it back to life with a concentrated fire spell. Praying that he hadn't disturbed anyone.
Even with the bit of familiarity between them, there's still that initial tenseness that comes with waking someone with whom he's not on a wholly familial level. If she's asleep, he tells himself, he'll simply cast his healing spells and be on his merry way before she wakes up.]

This is upsetting. Especially given how Xion sounded a while ago. Giles wanted to check in on the girl, but...well, she probably wasn't in the mood to be answering journals. Even so, he probably should have called, he can't find her house anywhere...
Xion will probably notice Giles looking a little lost a few yards away from the house in question when she finally decides to return. The Fidelias Charm has him stumped. The small ginger kitten sitting by his feet does not look pleased by this turn of events.]

It's not that he couldn't take care of himself anymore; in the past, he wouldn't have been able to, but now he's had enough experience to handle it. He just felt incredibly lonely, especially when he'd pass by Guy or Asch's room, and it was about time for a change.
He didn't tell anyone at first. He'd just spent a few hours gathering about half of his things in boxes from one of the shops and carrying them to his destination: the apartment he and Xion shared sometimes. If any place was going to become home for him, it would be that. He's sure his friends at House 1 would welcome him if he went to live with them... But he just isn't sure if he wants to share a house with that many people.
Luke's just finishing placing his plants in the window of the room - finally, he can actually water his plants without invading someone else's space - when it occurs to him that he should tell people. One person in particular needs to know, lest she teleports here and suddenly finds his stuff.
So he sits on the bed and flips open the journal, careful to make a message just for her.]
Xion? Are you there?

He had a hunch. He had the smallest, vaguest hunch what might have actually happened, and truth be told he was a bit terrified. He may have gotten his wish, and while that should have made him feel relieved, it was a bit frightening.
To make a long story short, he's literally staring into his journal for a good half an hour before he works up the nerve to contact someone he knows will be able to just listen while he sorts things out.]
...how do you feel about walks around lakes in the middle of early winter? [Lame, lame, lame as fuck.]

Thus, it's rather welcome to hear from Draco, who she hadn't encountered in her altered state, though his question strikes her as a little odd. ]

But he was basically fumbling his way through this, and if the ache in his stomach was any indication, he'd done something wrong this time. So despite lingering feelings of crushes, Xion is really the only person he can think of that he can ask.
So in the early afternoon he throws up a filter to Xion and leaves her a message. ]

But it's his choice and it's best for everyone involved, he knows it.
So he spends a moment outside of their room and stares down at his left hand as if it'll give him the answers, his right hand holding the wrist and running a thumb along the spot where the Jewel first appeared. There's a few reasons why he made this decision, but... well.
Best not to dwell on that right now. Instead, he takes in a breath, then finally turns to open the door to their room.]
Xion? Hey... I need to tell you something.
