OPEN ● there's a darkness upon me that's flooded in light
WHO: Xion and YOU!
WHERE: All over Heropa
WHEN: The first few weeks of October
WHAT: Xion tries to adjust to this new world and needs lots of help along the way
WARNINGS: None anticipated; will update if this changes
1.
[It's been a few days since Xion's arrival and she's had some time to adjust. Granted, it hasn't been easy - mostly because of all the free time she has. Now, this obviously teenage girl should be in school, but she's very much not. It's not on purpose, mind you - she just doesn't know how school works. What days does she even go in? Who knows.
So, in this "free" time, Xion has decided to try to go to the beach. The beach is one of her favorite places in the world to be, and nothing would make her feel closer to home than a day spent picking sea shells before the weather gets too cold to allow that.
There's one problem, however. Xion doesn't know how to get to the beach. She has her portals, sure, but they only work when she knows where she's going. Saix would typically open a portal for her when she was going to a new world or location. She's going to have to do this the normal way - the human way. She uses her phone to find the closest bus station and works from there.
It's an easy walk... and then a choice between six buses. The route maps on each bus's sign mean almost nothing to her, filled with unfamiliar names of landmarks and streets. When she tries to check her phone for help, the battery is dead. Was she supposed to charge this or something? No one told her that!
Well, she can figure it out on her own. Who needs GPS? She gets right on the first bus without hesitation.
--And ends up dropped off somewhere in the suburbs at the end of the line. That's not right at all. She hadn't even seen any beaches along that route! Defeated, she opens a portal in plain sight and steps back out at the bus station.
Bus #2 takes her past museums of taxidermy, yarn, and historic planes and leaves her at The Alligator Hut, an alligator-shaped two story building dedicated to teaching the public all about the wonders of alligators. Rare fossils and a gift shop were advertised on the sign outside. Interesting, buuuut not what she had in mind. Xion summons a portal and steps back out once again at the bus station.
The next two buses do her even less good and when she portals back to the station the last time, she's exhausted, slumped over, sweating in her heavy leather coat, and looking somewhere inbetween depressed and frustrated and about to scream. She slumps down in a huff on the ground. She just... needs a moment, that's all. She can still do this.]
2.
[Something Xion has learned recently is that humans love coffee. She likes trying new things (cautiously), and if it's this popular, it has to be really good, right? Besides, a hot drink sounds nice on these chilly fall mornings. So one Saturday morning, Xion walks down to the coffee shop closest to Heropa's government housing and waits in line along with a ton of other totally normal people that totally know what they're doing here.
Finally, her turn comes, and she steps up to the counter, looks up into the vast menu and-- blanks.
What is this stuff? There's a coffee, sure, but with a ton of other options. And what's with all the flavorings being offered? What's pumpkin spice? She doesn't think vegetables belong in coffee, right? That doesn't sound good at all. What's an espresso? What's a latte? A macchiato? Mocha?
Someone behind her yells for her to hurry up.]
S-sorry! Just one coffee, please.
[But that doesn't satisfy the barista. "What size? Do you want creamer or milk? Hot or iced?" It's endless.]
U-um--
[Help.]

He won't lie to himself that this girl does bear a remarkable resemblance to Kairi, but he knew that wasn't why.
Sora quickly shakes his head at her question his smile still soft but still carrying that sadness. ]
That's not it at all. It's just-I met you back home for a moment. You ran and...well, I met Roxas there too and I felt- [ and at this point he has placed a hand over his heart ]
what he felt and saw everything he went through.
And...I felt what happened to you and I was sad. I can't imagine what you went through or what the Organization did to you but I wanted to tell you it isn't your fault. That you deserve to be your own person.
no subject
He saw everything that happened to her? To Roxas? That's terrible. She wouldn't want to relive it, and she can't imagine what it was like for him to experience something as hard as Roxas's life firsthand.
But there's a question there. Can she be her own person? She always wanted to be. For so long, she didn't even know there was any other way to be. Xion just developed her own personality and self through her friendships and experiences... and then gave it all up.]
I'd... I'd like that. I'm not sure if I deserve it, though.
[However, this is Sora. He'll just insist anyway.]
If I am... and I can be... Do you think that we can be friends?
no subject
Guess who's getting hands on the shoulder and shook a bit in a playful gesture and insists he does: ]
Hey, come on now, none of that. Everyone deserves to be their own person so don't think like that, okay?
[ as for her next question, Sora just grins ear to ear: ]
Of course! I wouldn't have ran out looking for you if I didn't think we could be.
So lets start now, okay?
[ and he offers a hand to her: ]
I'm Sora, it's good to meet you, Xion.
no subject
It's good to meet you too, Sora. I'm your replica.
