[video]/open for freya

[ His curse may have ended a couple of days ago but between the impromptu camping trip and needing some downtime, it's only now that Roxas manages to get to cleaning up his room because someone told him he should collect flowers for everyone. Which is what he did. Almost a full room of them in fact--and without the knowledge that flowers generally die without water he just left them on his floor.

It is now a huge, shrivelled mess he is having to clean up--they are literally everywhere. So today's video feed starts with him standing in his room with several garbage bags and flower remains just everywhere. ]

Does anyone know if there's like...some giant compost or anything we can use if we've got a lot of stuff that could go in it? All I could see are garbage bins and there's kind of a lotta stuff here... [ THANKS ARTHUR. ]

--Oh. And um...I guess. Sorry if I worried anyone a while back. I was cursed and couldn't really think that straight. I'm all better now though! Uh...yeah.

[ And then the feed ends and he'll get back to dragging these giant bags of dried-out flowers down out to the front of Freya's Welcome House until he can figure out what to do to them! ]

[ ooc; feel free to run into him anywhere in Freya c: his room will be open while he cleans up, so! ]

[Burned.

That's it. Alice covers her face for a few moments to hide her real reaction to that. But she won't be shouting at him anymore.]

[ Oh gosh he's just making things worse isn't he-- ]

Alice...?

You were almost burned?

Well we sort of got...attacked. By these fire-creatures. A bunch of the forest burnt down.

...

[For the first time ever, Alice finds herself wanting to embrace someone. He lived. And even if horrible images and screams float in her mind, she can deal with this. It may bring nightmares, but this is blessing.]

But--like I said! I'm fine, I barely got touched. Alright? I'm okay.

But where?

[MEANING THAT SHE WILL HUNT YOU DOWN.]

Where...am I? I'm just in Freya cleaning some stuff up. Do you want to meet up? I can come to you if you want...

[She finally looks up back at him. There's tears in her eyes and she hopes he can see it, yes, she wants him to come or meet him.]

[ Oh gosh, even someone as dense as him can see that. These flowers can wait ]

Do you--do you want meet up at the park? or is there somewhere else you want to go...?

Fine.

[Too late, she's heading to the park.]

[ FFFF--park it is he guesses. He's going to travel by skateboard since she seems to really need someone right now so he'll be there in about ten honey ): ]

[Alice certainly doesn't care if she mows down people. She's sprinting and completely out of breath upon arrival.]

[ Gosh she probably arrives even before him then ): he'll head to the last place they spent time together to see if that's where she's gone ]

[She guesses the same thing. The dark haired girl stops, who finds herself a loss for words at the sight of him. She can't express how grateful she to see him or her fears. And that's the frustrating part about it.]

[ The poor thing--all Roxas can tell is that she looks obviously distressed, and he skins to a stop quickly before hurrying over ]

Alice...? I'm sorry I'm late--I came as fast as I could.

[She hasn't really recalled a time anyone did this, up until Asgard. No one would touch her -- at least, not in friendly ways. Ways Alice will likely never speak of. The word "burned" is still in her mind. Visions of her parents frantically trying to get out and never a cry from Lizzie.

It's an impulsive thing to do, but Alice takes Roxas in her arms, hugging him tightly, letting out a muffled cry.]

--! [ It's the very last thing he expects of her. She's always come off as just a bit estranged, aloof; someone who never really liked to be that close to others, or who was too awkward about it to really try. So by the time he realizes what she's doing he's blinking in surprise, slowly lifting his arms up to return the gesture ]

[Her mind realizes what she's done.

She feels vulnerable, that she's left her guard down. But who cares. Weeks ago, she would be so hesitant to call these people friends. She's adhere to Malik's advice this long and it's made her feel joy as much as it had made her feel sorrow when they left. But this is...

She wouldn't have that wretched guilt inside of her. No more ten years wasted in an asylum, poked and prodded. Not another year at Bumby's. All those years kicking and ridiculing herself for not being able to save them. And yet, here he is. She chokes.]

Not you, too... I wouldn't forgive.

Alice....?

[She finally releases him.

A few steps back and Alice tries to compose herself in the Alice everyone knows. It's soothing she can hug him, talk to him, and check in on him. The same can't be said for her family, so Alice can, at least for now, put her worries beside her. She sniffles brushing her hair out of her face and wiping away tears.]

Hey...it's okay Alice--I'm fine see? Not a scratch on me. And I'm here to stay okay? Not going anywhere.

[Alice will need a few moments to calm down now that she's not crying. She's still trembling. She gives a silent nod, as she tries to steady her breathing.]

[ he'll hover close then just in case she needs another hug, but enough so that she's got room to breathe and all that. He's not going anywhere hun promise ): ]

Some people are... not so fortunate.
