001 Written Hello

[heartismyown]

 I've found out this book is connected to all kinds of people, and it's not private to me.

So I should say 'hi' then. My name is Roxas. My best friend is Axel Lea and he's here with me. 

What kind of people are out there? Who are you? Do you like sea salt ice cream?

[These are very important questions.]

Write me back, okay?

[heartismyown]

Yeah, I follow that! You want me to test it!

[That totally means a ton of free ice cream. There's no way he wouldn't agree]

Sanji. That sounds familiar. Did we meet before?

[written]

[serving_love]

Got it in one! We're sailing with you guys for awhile, so maybe after the holidays you can help me out in the galley sometime.

Nah, I don't think we've met. I don't remember anyone named Roxas.

[written]

[heartismyown]

I can help you out! Especially for ice cream!

Hmm, that's weird then. It's okay, we're meeting now.

[written]

[serving_love]

Good! Then I'll get some recipes together, see which ones I like. Hopefully one them ends up similar to what you're expecting.

...Unless you're one of the new ones who's visited our ship lately.

[written]

[heartismyown]

I'll look forward to it. I hope it'll be great!

Yeah, I went over and I talked to a horse and a guy who wanted to share my blanket.

[written]

[serving_love]

A horse, huh. Well that's descriptive. Eh, maybe I saw you around, who knows. What do you think of this place so far?

[written]

[heartismyown]

Well it was really cold but this place seems good. Riku said we're going to go to the beach!

[written]

[serving_love]

What, like that's special or something? Beaches?

[written]

[heartismyown]

Yeah, I've always wanted to go to the beach! I've never been before. It's supposed to be really fun.

[written]

[serving_love]

[There's a noticeable pause before he writes anything else.]

You know there's one like...down by the shipyard, right?

[written]

[heartismyown]

I didn't see it when we came to the boat. Riku brought us, and we were running from the people who were mad at me for sleeping on the ground.

[written]

[serving_love]

Well, it's there. Shitty thing's like a ten-minute walk from the town center. Nothing stopping you from going.

[written]

[heartismyown]

Isn't it too cold to go to the beach?

[written]

[serving_love]

If you're planning on going swimming, then yeah. But if you just wanted to see it, it's there.

[written]

[heartismyown]

I can't decide!

[written]

[serving_love]

...Just go when it's warmer, makes more sense.

[written]

[heartismyown]

Okay, that would be good. Then we can swim!

[written]

[serving_love]

What, you've never done that before either?

[written]

[heartismyown]

Not for fun. I can swim though. A guy pushed me overboard the other day and I found out I can swim.

[written]

[serving_love]

...A guy pushed you overboard. The hell did you do, piss him off somehow?

[written]

[heartismyown]

I was sitting on the railing and he said to be careful and I said I was okay. I used to sit on a clock tower. So he pushed me overboard. I was really mad at him for that, but then we talked for awhile. He's okay, just weird.

[written]

[serving_love]

Well, that all makes total logical sense. Weird is definitely the word for it.

[written]

[heartismyown]

He's my friend now, I think!
