[ Sometime during the night, the Malnosso robots dumped Xion off where they'd picked her up -- square in the middle of town. There and gone, quick as you please, leaving an unconscious girl behind.

However, she quickly comes to, stirring blearily and slowly sitting up. ]

Where....?

[ And then her eyes go wide. Something looks ... different. At this time of night -- or morning, really -- the sun is only just barely starting to come up, turning the sky a deep, dark blue. It's just light enough to see by, but can't properly be called morning yet.

And in this mock twilight, Xion sees that Luceti suddenly seems horribly familiar yet bizarre at the same time. She sits stunned for a moment, unable to process what she's seeing, then looks over her shoulder at the fountain.

What she sees makes her yelp. ]

Whoa! But that's... what is... no way! I'm still in Luceti, right? But how...

[ This is too strange. Xion locates her journal, conveniently nearby as always, and immediately starts talking into it, too curious and excited to really stop and care about the fact that she just got back. ]

Axel! Roxas! Are you guys awake? Have you seen the town yet? It looks -- it looks so much like Halloween Town! I thought I was actually there when I woke up...

[ Xion looks away from the journal to stare in wonder around the spooky town. Finally, she stands, a smile spreading across her face. ]

I wonder what all this is about...

[ Another pause. Then Xion gives another abrupt shout of surprise and drops her journal, unable to stop herself from exclaiming aloud ]

What am I wearing?! Are these... are these bunny ears...?

(ooc; this, ftr. also, she happens to be covered in bruises, which is much more apparent with all that skin bared. she'll be noticing it belatedly in threads instead of here in the post proper. don't worry; at least she didn't feel any pain, right? :|b

ps this is going up more or less in real time, at 6:30 in the morning or so.

also will be getting to tags here and on her last post when I actually get home from work. /RUNS)

Well, just look! You'll see what I mean. ... yeah, really.

...so if I were to go outside right now? [The sounds from the journal seem to hint that he's already going to do so.]

Yeah! It's still a little dark out, but--

Hey, why are you up, anyway?

...doesn't matter. Where are you? I'll meet you out there if you're not close to the house.

[ something about that response strikes her as funny, but she lets it go. ]

I'm in the middle of town, right near the fountain. Not that far.

Stay put, I'll be out there in a second.

... okay.

[ so Xion just chills out, eventually seating herself on the edge of the fountain to wait. ]

[Sup Xion. Sooner or later bff number one is going to come up the path toward the fountain, glaring up at the hat on his ridiculous costume, not even aware of the fact his face is painted white with black whiskers on his cheeks.]

...so do you have any idea why this suddenly appeared as soon as I stepped out of the house?

[ ... ]

[ AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

Sorry, Roxas. She's going to need a minute to recover from a massive attack of the lolz. ]

Hey! I didn't laugh at your get-up!

I'm sorry! I just ... that hat!

[ still laughing. she loves you really. ]

You're wearing one too! [Pouting. Forever.]

[ ehehehehehe. she slowly calms down, eventually sticking her tongue out at him and tipping her hat, making both her bunny ears flop over. ]

It's not as big as yours, though! And your face! Have you seen it yet?

[He sticks his out in retaliation, snickering at her ears before he suddenly realizes what she just said.]

...what's wrong with my face?

You've got -- you've got --

[ hands over her mouth for a moment, like she can't contain the lolz. ]

... whiskers.

[ yeah she's bursting out laughing again. SORRY BFF THIS WILL NEVER NOT BE FUNNY ]

...what?! [And he's moving to look down into the fountain, never mind the fact it's still kind of dark out. The white's bright enough for the black to stand out.]

And I thought being stuck as Riku was bad.

[ ........... ]

Wait, what?

[A shrug...and a sigh. Worst week ev--...okay not ever, but close. ~~I love that the speech bubble matches wtf.~~]

It was like right before you arrived actually. The Malnosso decided it'd be fun for us to go through a bodyswap. I was Riku, Riku was me.

... that's ...

[ oh god, her expression must be a wonder to behold. from shocked to "what the fuck" to just plain weirded out ]

... that's just way too weird to even think about.

Hey, at least you didn't have to go through it. Being part of Sora is one thing. Being his best friend is another.
