[At first, she's quiet for a little while. She opens her mouth as if she knew what to say before but now that the camera's rolling, she's second-guessing it. And so there's a pause before she starts talking.]

Matthew's gone.

[... and she looks a little confused, as if she never expected to say those words. They sound so foreign.]

... sheesh. Can he ever leave without causing me problems?

Well, now you know.

[A bit of a shrug and she ends the feed.]

[It takes her a moment to decide whether or not to buy it.]

I'll take the cone off your hands for now, I guess. No such thing as too much ice cream, though.

Thanks for doing this.

Nah. I owe you for saving my life remember?

[He hands it to her and sits down on the steps.]

Besides, I can't do this with Riku or Kairi too much or they'll start making fun of me for getting fat.

Oh yeah, that. Hah, I wish I got ice cream every time I saved someone's life. It'd make me a very happy girl.

[And she starts eating it straight away. She actually hadn't had much to eat today.]

Well hey, so long as you get excercise to burn it off, I say there's nothing wrong with snacking a lot and snacking often.

If that were the case, I think a lot more people would wanna be heroes.

[He starts on his own, and holds the other two in his left hand.]

Yeah- I'm always moving around. Plus, Donald and Goofy say I have a fast metabo-something. That's why I burn off so much.

Save a life, get some sweets? Sounds like a nice deal.

... metabolism, Sora. Metabolism. [She laughs.] But that does make sense. You go around saving people too? Or are you just the one being saved?

Saving people! I'm a hero too, you know. Or.. at least a Junior Hero. Phil says I don't count as a real one yet.

[He pouts.]

Are you now? I never would've guessed.

[She snickers.]

But well, I think it's really simple to be a hero. And no one can ever really tell you whether or not you're doing a good job either.

You know what they say. Don't judge a book by its cover.

[He tilts his head.]

You think so?

From: [identity profile] sweeperesque.livejournal.com
Hah, right. How could I ever forget?

Mm-hmm. Whether or not you're a succesful hero- and you'll know if you feel this inside or not- all depends on one simple thing. Wanna hazard a guess?

You know, I never really thought about it like that before.

I guess I feel the best when I'm helping somebody.

That's it!

To be a succesful hero or... anything, really... I think all it takes is a genuine desire to help people. If you have that in mind, then you'll be accomplished in anything and everything.

[He nods... looks at her for a moment, accepting of the answer. It seems so rudimentary. It's something he's always innately wanted to do, something he's always just done automatically.]

[But he grins.]


How about you tell Phil that. Then maybe he'll cut me some slack.

A lot of people are heroes and don't even know it. Kinda like my old roommate Danny. He really helped me out of a tight spot.

[He takes another lick at his ice cream.] He left too, you know.

If Phil ever shows up here, I'll be more than happy to do so.

[And at the mention of someone leaving, she falters for a moment. She'd forgotten again. It was so easy to forget that he wasn't around anymore when she was with someone else.]

... hmph. Well, lucky them for getting out of here. I'm sure they're happy, if nothing else.

[She laughs.] I've heard more than enough times about things that people need to do once they get home and people they miss... Thinking that they're back with them now? Guess it makes dealing with it easier.

I hope so.

[A sheepish smile and a shrug.]

I don't like people coming back after they leave. It seems very lazy and weak-willed. If he's out of my life now, I want him to stay out. It's easier for the both of us that way.

[... so why does it feel like she's still trying to convince herself?]

[Action!]

Date: 2010-12-03 03:59 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] lockandkeyblade.livejournal.com
Well yeah, I guess that makes sense.

[No, Saya... he doesn't sound convinced either.]

But still.

[He wants to say something, but he's not sure if he should.]

[... she shouldn't ask. She shouldn't ask after she's trying so hard to convince herself and he only has an argument to offer and she shouldn't ask, she shouldn't ask--]

Still...?

Don't you miss him at all?

[.... she's been asked that so many times, she just sighs.]

I don't think so. What's there to miss?

I'm going to enjoy getting a full night's sleep for a while, Sora. Sleep, some time to myself, and a good meal alone occasionally.

[A wise nod and a laugh.]

Yeah... I'll finally be alone for a while. No chance of him dropping by the apartment when he's bored or any of that.

Heyy.... wait a minute. Is this guy the 'troublesome jerk' who's only 'good company?'

The one whose name you wouldn't tell me?

[Action!]

From: [identity profile] sweeperesque.livejournal.com
Oh... I didn't think you'd remember!

[She laughs.]

That's the one. Matthew, the thief who wouldn't let me have a moment to myself while he was around.
