... I need your help. And you can't tell anyone, okay?

( Aqua | Locked 100% )

Aqua... I know we haven't spoken that much, but I need to ask you a really, really big favor.

( Sanji | Locked 100% )

[ a long silence goes here. ] ... could I stay at your house tonight?

( Luke | Locked 100% )

I'd -- [ ... ] Can I see you?

[ Xion is out of the house today. Mostly because it's become almost impossible to stay there. She hasn't slept for more than a handful of hours since Vanitas attacked -- three days ago. She's so exhausted she can barely stay on her feet, but better awake and moving than a sitting target.

Who could sleep, knowing that at any minute someone stronger than you and your friends could break into your home and kill you whenever he wanted?

It's this question that drives her to address Luceti at large, once she's got herself settled on the railing of That One Bridge. Hey, it's like right next to her house and she wanted to sit on a bridge, so sue her. ]


( filtered AWAY from Vanitas and Saix | Locked 100% )

What would you do if you didn't feel safe in your own home anymore?


[ and this is to say nothing -- not a damn thing -- of how she feels about Roxas right now. He had no excuse -- what defense could you give? -- and Axel almost died -- for what? Why? Why had any of this happened? Does she blame Roxas, for extending the invitation, or Vanitas, for taking it? Even if she had something to say to him, she couldn't -- he hasn't been home in days.

It's a very numb Poppet that's sitting on that there railing, swinging her legs and staring at the water below. Please interrupt her thoughts -- for they are very grim ones. ]

[Naoki gives her hand a slight squeeze before drawing his away and resting it back on the rail of the bridge, eyes on her as opposed to the water now.]

I know... I'd be surprised if something like that didn't scare you. [Was it the kind of feeling the manikins and Futomimi must have had? When they were attacked in their sanctuary? He recalls some of that feeling.] It's probably difficult now, isn't it, being there. [To feel safe again.]

[That noise and seeing her rub her eye like that is all it takes for Naoki to shift closer, bringing an arm around her gently. A gesture of support, and an attempt at comfort.]

If you need anything. Anything at all, just name it. I'll do everything in my power. [If it means sitting out on their front lawn and guarding the place so she can have some peace of mind? So be it.]

Black mask and bodysuit...'kay. [He smiles slightly himself.] I will. I promise you that. [Though if Naoki actually runs into him, well. He won't hold back.]

[action] ... Naoki is secretly a creeper? |D

[Naoki nods himself, watching the river and pushing himself upright, leaving his hands on the rail of the bridge. He has little doubt in his abilities. If he wanted to hurt him? He thinks he will.]

With Sanji...? Mm, I see. [He nods. That house has always felt safe to him, if because of the people rather than the building itself.] Our door is open, as well--there's a spare room, if you ever need it.
