[ Xion spends a long time thinking about how to write this post. Once she turned big again, she-- well. It happened rather suddenly, and while she was sleeping, too! And then she had to go change because the bitty clothing didn't really fit her teenage form all that well.

She'd noticed immediately that Allen was gone, too. Her worry had been intense until she realized he must have returned to normal before she did and gone home. As it was still the middle of the night then, she'd tried to fall back to sleep after that, but ended up waking quite early this morning without having gotten much sleep. So now she's just staring at her journal page, lost in thought about the last week and how to talk to everyone.

It's the thought of how she butchered all those names - "Tara," "Oki," "Aksel," "Ahka" - that gets her to laugh aloud. Once she realizes the journal recorded that, she just thinks the hell with it and starts talking. ]

That was ... a pretty interesting week, last week. I'm not sure if I should say sorry or thank you to everyone who spoke to me and helped take care of me. [ she laughs again, quietly. ] For everyone in the house, I'll take care of chores and clean up for a while, okay? I owe you guys!

Anyway, if you happened to see a little girl and boy in the center of the village about a week ago, would you mind speaking with me? That little girl was me, and, um... I guess I'd like to get to know everyone I was just meeting for the first time for real. [ hee. ] And I want to thank all of you for your help. Everyone was really kind!

Oh, but... Allen, I'm guessing you weren't new anymore than I was. When you see this, could we talk?

[ after that's done, Xion bundles up slightly against the cooling weather and heads out. Somewhat to avoid Riku. .. okay, mostly to avoid Riku. They had A Moment in the middle of town after everyone ended up there naked, and she's still not sure how she feels about it. Her very clear memories of clinging to him when she was tiny also stay with her, and she needs time to think.

So she's going to head to the bakery to get breakfast, then settle on a bench somewhere with her journal and her thoughts. Feel free to run into her anywhere on her walk across town.

She will add this about an hour later: ]

If you're not busy today, would you have a minute to see me?

(ooc; this would have been in the journal sometime early this morning, just for reference.)

[Well, while she's out on that there bench, Riku's gonna be passing by on a morning stroll. Oddly, he's in his cloak.]

[ oh.

what is he...?

it's curiosity that makes her call out more than anything. ]

Riku?

If that was you, then...I don't think we got off on the best foot.

[ a pause. she can't recognize straight away from writing and maybe a glimpse in the journal's camera who this is. but there's a fairly small number of people who actually managed to alarm her. hm. ]

Who are--? I mean - I'm sorry, I don't remember exactly.

[Chopper doesn't come across the entry until after the message for him goes up, and he takes a few moments to check the first part of it. Well...huh. That would explain things.] ...Xion?

Hi, Chopper. I'm so sorry -- strange things seem to happen every time I see you! This is what I'm normally like.

[markofthewise]

Well if it's any consolation, you were a cute kid.

... gee, thanks, Sokka. [ she'd stick her tongue out at him if she could. ] It took you a while to figure out who I was!

[voice]

[flaring]

You were really quite the handful.

[ sdlkjghs noooo she's torn between laughing and feeling awful. ]

I'm really sorry! I was just ... really curious about everything!

[Kratos sees her sitting on the bench. He has to wonder if she got everything settled... So, with that in mind, and the fact that he hasn't seen her in a little while, he steps closer.]

[fourteen]

[ Oh, hi Kratos. Xion smiles the moment she sees him, warmth lighting her expression. He's one of those people she's always genuinely happy to see. ]

Hi, Kratos. How are you?

[Voice]

[perplexme]

So if I try to use the wooden spoon, are you going to let me keep it this time?

[Voice]

[fourteen]

[ fffffff. ] Well, what if I really wanted to keep it?

I dunno, seeing Axel run around like that was pretty fun. Maybe we should change you back again for awhile...

[He teases, he teases. But he's also grinning. Yay, he's not the dad anymore!]

[Voice]

You're terrible, Sora! ... though I bet it was pretty funny. [ a quiet giggle. ] It was fun towards the end of the week, but I think I still prefer being, well, me.

[SOMEBODY KNOWS HE OWES AN APOLOGY]

Uh...girl?

Yeah, girl.

[were they ever even introduced]

[voice]

[fourteen]

... that voice. I know your voice. You're that guy! [ the yelling one. she's trying to recall what he shouted that woke her up in the first place, but it's hazy. ] ... my name is Xion.

[personafalsify.livejournal.com]

[ HI XION HAVE THE MESSIEST WRITING EVER IN THE HISTORY OF EVER. ]

So things are back to normal for you?

[voice]

[fourteen]

[ what is this. it takes Xion a moment of blinking to decipher this, though she's also staring at the camera trying to see who it is. she replies in voice without thinking ]

Yeah... but who is...?

[voice]

[outwalks.livejournal.com]

[ His response arrives slightly late. To be fair, he looks at the journal less and less these days and, today, has been busy ransacking his closet. Shirt, trousers, overcoat, gloves, socks, boots and more. Allen Walker has never been so clothed in his entire life. ]

. . . I guess I wasn't, at that. Ah—I'm free right now, if you've the time.

[voice]

[fourteen]

[ ... almost immediately she starts to laugh. ]

You sounds so different. I'm free! Would you like to meet somewhere?

[Luke is also in the bakery, though he hasn't gotten anything yet. He's just looking at the selection of food. Mmm, those are some good noms.

He looks up once someone comes in, and once he sees who it is, he grins and waves.]

Hey, Xion!

Luke! Good morning! [ she grins too and walks over to him. ]

Have you been in here before?

[Regal looks up when he hears the bakery door open, a smile spreading across his face once he realizes who it is.]

Good morning, Xion. It's been a while since we last spoke-- how have you been?

[Action]

Morning, Regal! [ she practically chirps. someone's in a good mood. she trots over to him with her journal hugged to her chest, smiling warmly. ]

Um -- good! I had a weird week last week. [ a laugh ] How are you?

[Voice]

[applehair.livejournal.com]

[One of two... oh!] You grew up pretty fast.

[Voice]

[ a quiet laugh ] Something like that. I was only like that because of the Malnosso, anyway. I'm normally like this!
